He can also execute the iso in ways nobody else can. I don't think he's done a good job finding the right supporting cast. It's not like harden or Westbrook who constantly stat pad. Iso is an effective offense for LeBron to use as a base and I don't think there's anything selfish about the way he plays, other than he wants the offense run his way because he thinks it's the best way to win.

Comparatively to the talent on Golden State it IS a pile of shit. [Reply]

Taking your talents to South Beach is weak as shit too. And if that hadn't happened Durant would have never left for GS.
According to Woj Colangelo is out in Philly. Definitely the right move even though it appears the investigation found that it was his wife that was using those accounts "supposedly". [Reply]

In before someone on a football message board knows more than Kobe Bryant. [Reply]

:-) Ever notice when these guys get busted for stuff, it's always the "wife" who really did it.
Roger Clemens, Payton Manning, this guy, etc...So lame. [Reply]

We can enjoy one without tearing down one. I love what he’s doing. Don’t debate what can’t be definitively won by anyone #enjoymy5#enjoymj6#enjoylbjquest
All of those guys suck other than Kevin Love. Kobe knows this (or his basketball knowledge is way worse than I thought) but as you can see in the tweet ("enjoy my 5, enjoy MJ's 6" :-)), he has an obvious ulterior motive to make such statements. Gotta keep himself in the LeBron/MJ conversation somehow even if he is miles apart from them. [Reply]

Whether it was his wife or not, that information that was tweeted out came from him. They couldn't let him be a GM any longer. Surprised it took as long as it did for it to happen. [Reply]

Why? Cleveland built nothing around him for nearly a decade and they had every opportunity to do so. Get a player better than Zydrunas Ilgauskas to be his #2 and a realistic shot at a title and he would have likely stayed in Cleveland the entire time.

Durant would have still choked the 3-1 lead to Golden State in 2016 and blamed his coach/teammates for it whether LeBron did what he did in 2010 or not, so I have no idea what you are basing that on. He badly wanted to go win a title so he went the best place he thought to do it. [Reply]
