I’m pretty sure this has something to do with Brons comments on Giannis scoring a bunch of points in that era

Zeke normally puts on for Bron cause of the rivalry with MJ, but he was looking for anything to snap on Bron about

Bron is the quintessential “pros pro” who goes about it business the best we’ve ever seen in sports

Bron comes to the arena a whole 5-6 hours before tipoff to get warmups going. I don’t give AF about him with no shirt on in an empty gym. wtf kind of commentary is this? If he was right before tipoff then Zeke would have a point

If you think you're lonely now, ohhh girl...
I was ready to laugh him off but….:patrice:

I can’t lie, Bron has ushered in a ton of bad precedent and bad habits to the league

Low key bc he’s following the jay z blueprint of unapologeticness ….except bron isn’t nearly as articulate , sharp, etc as Jay

People are not ready for that conversation. LeBron is not only one of the greatest players of all-time, but he’s the most powerful active player in NBA history. He’s the only player with a damn sports agency while playing. He’s the de facto GM too. He puts the team together. Even Kyrie said LeBron is really LeGm. When Russ met with the Lakers, he talked about meeting LeBron at some hacienda or some shyt. One can go on and on.

With that in mind, the ASG being trash, the load management stuff, the players in general being seemingly less “enthused“ to be in the NBA—as if it’s not a huge blessing and they’d rather be doing something else with their life (e.g., Zion and Ja), etc. are all artifacts of the LeBron era. It doesn’t mean that LeBron hasn't had an amazing career, but a lot of stuff people hate about the current league are a byproduct of the time when LeBron was/is the “guy.”

You gotta take the good with the bad :yeshrug:.

Bron do be ODing with the durags. How you got no waves, no braids but wear durags 24/7 :gucci:

Yea as the captain of the swim team (LA region) :whew:

I must say I have never been a fan of LeBron wearing his wave cap out in public. It looks unprofessional and shouldn’t be worn as a hat.

But the fact that he keeps that dumb shyt on his head and hasn’t had waves since his rookie season is criminal

:gladbron::lolbron:

Lmao at all this dumbass chit

Duncan, Pop and the Spurs started the “load management movement”

Lebron has played more minutes, scored more points, played in more all star games then anyone in NBA history

Lebron talks all the time about how important it is for him being the face of the league and the responsibility of trying to leave it in a better place… Zion and Ja have ZERO to do with LeBron lol.

:dahell: the fukk are we even talking about here? Mans warming up hours before gametime in an empty arena shirtless and its a discussion? NBA media is in shambles :snoop:
Yeah I was thinking this was pregame or something, if this was hours before people are in the arena, I don't really see what the big deal is.

It's well known Bron be at the arena a whole 5 hours before the game practicing, well beyond what anyone else in the league is doing

That professionalism is WAY more valuable than putting on some assigned clothing


Zeke acting like this was during pregame shoot around with a full building :scust: it's crazy how these old nikkas try to dress up their c00ning as talking about professionalism
Yep. Gilbert Arenas said this shyt was at like 2:30. He said Kobe did the same shyt and shirtless.
