You realize the Lakers basically ran a 6 man rotation right? All 6 played 30+ minutes.
They played 8 players for 12+ minutes and didn't play anyone over 39 minutes, but yes, they mostly played their best six available players. So?



No ingram, Lonzo was garbage.
Since no Ingram helped enable Randle to go off for exactly 36-14-7, that wasn't exactly a problem for the Lakers.

The "big men" for the Cavs are a small forward, and a power forward who was only the 3rd-best pf on this Lakers team. They were just massacred inside.



JR was starting before the trade why is it A problem now? Stop making excuses. Bron ball isn't working anymore. Tye Lue sucks as a coach.
Were you born last week? JR's terrible play has been a problem ALL season. Did you suddenly forget this team starting off terrible, and was 4-9 in their last 13 games before the trade? They still have a better record since the trade than before it, even with all the injuries.

Yes, Ty sucks as a coach, that needs to be addressed and won't be this season. But "Bron ball" is not the reason this team has no big man or rim protector. "Bron ball" is not the reason that the team has gone through four point guards and is currently without their best shooting guard, power forward, or center. "Bron ball" is not the reason that JR his the wall and looks done.

So it's an excuse for the Cavs when they are short but for the Lakers it's okay? Sure.

I'm not gonna respond to the rest because you're claiming JR just fell off when you forgot he did a stint in China. JR has been garbage since he left his role in,the Nuggets.

I've noticed that Bron stans take themselves way more seriously than Jordan and Kobe stans.

You criticize Jordan or Kobe, their stans usually laugh it off or joke back at you.

Criticize LeBron........You about to get a scolding post, neg rep, and almost put on ignore:wow:

The trade was fine. The problem is the game plan.

Bron goes first he'll kick it out to the sub-par shooters.

If Bron doesn't go first it's basically iso. Usually settling with a defended 3. No screens, no movement no post play.

They get successful when bron drives gets double teamed and lobs it to Nance but that won't fit the Bron narrative.

Unfortunately we're watching LeBron die on his own sword.
It’s hurts....but it’s truth:wow:



And only a real coach can stop this nonsense.:wow:

Seriously. You criticize Lebron and it's apparently an attack on Lebron the man and the black race. It is absolutely ridiculous. :mjlol:

Lakers had to give Caruso and Wear heavy rotational minutes. Hell, even Derrick Williams’ corpse got playing time. The Cavs were not at this major disadvantage, they were still able to play Lebron, JC, Nance, Green, Hill, Korver, and Smith, all will be key rotational pieces in April.

I swear some of you in here were the same ones riding the shyt out of the Cavs after that first game following the trades where they blew out the Celtics in Boston. Make up your damn mind already
