I think they're going too far saying Lebron is out of the championship business. I still think dude will compete at a high level, BUT...

...I DO feel he is going to prioritize other interests even more than he did in the past. I do feel this wasn't a basketball decision purely. He was clearly going to go to LA. If it was just about wins ,he would've made sure the Lakers made the moves necessary before he got there, just like he with Miami and Cleveland.

Dude ain't thinking purely like a ball player, anymore. Or, I should say he's showing signs that he is clearly thinking about a post-bball career in a major way now.

It is what it is.

shyt, I feel like when Kobe took that 2 year-48 mil offer, that was Kobe's way of saying, 'You know what, fellas? I've given my all to basketball for three decades. I don't even fukking care anymore. Give me the bag, and I'll just ride this the rest of the way out."

lebron chose family and movies over basketball. He gave up the ring chase.

Rob Parker is the goat though. Don't know why the coli hates on the guy who called our rg corn ball and is the black journalist of the year



I like him cause he's hilarious. I just want to know where the Lebron beef came from. I understand he doing it for the ratings, but I think there's some real feelings behind it :mjlol:

I see nothing wrong with it.

I think even the most driven athlete can get to a point where the desire to keep pushing towards the same fukking goal starts to become more work than it's worth.

How many rings do Lebron want to win? Does he have a goal in mind?

Six like Jordan? If so - obviously I don't know that to be true, but that is the most significant no. within reach- while not impossible, that is probably going to require more commitment - especially as he ages - than even he wants to give at this point.

He right. I'm disappointed in Bron Bron.

Philly had the #2 defense and a 52 win team. This is similar to what MJ had with the bulls. They won 55 games without MJ with a top defense.

He really chose LA for the lifestyle and business. This entire year is a wash. First month going to be exciting for the league and then reality is going to set in when they start of 7-13



But if he went to philly the narrative would be he hiding from the west and he jumped on the team with the most talent



If he stayed with the Cavs he gonna lose in the finals so he gave up


He goes to the lakers it’s for the life style


He goes to Houston he wants to be carried by the current MVP


If he retires he gave up

It’s like no matter what this man does it’s a issue :russ:

Kyrie just did a whole movie that’s in theaters



Imagine if Lebron did that ..... what would be the story :russ:
