    i don't remember the posters but there was a decent discussion and good amount of posters who thought so in the off-season when the trade went down.

    defense alone is why it wasn't close. even if kyrie is a terrible defender, IT is possibly the WORST defender of all time (and brad did the best he could trying to hide him in the past 2 years)

    Culture is supposed to be set by the best player, by the best player in the world. He's not doing that. LeBron has to be better on both ends. - Chauncey

    There will be talk of players quitting on the coach/organization. I see players quitting on LeBron. Kyrie probably saw this coming. - Jalen

    Rockets are cooking. But it appears LeBron has mailed it in this game. He’s not even looking to be aggressive offensively. That first half was very “meh” to me inspite of the blowout.

    It just feels like winning against a team that’s not caring to try.

    Regardless I’ll take another stress free W (hopefully).

    Like I said, "Lebron is a nuke" on your organization.

    People think Morey makes guys worry about getting traded? If you play with Lebron you know that if you get a hangnail he's going to get management to trade you for someone with a fresh manicure.

    His teams have had serious tension for years. That Cleveland situation looks like it is about to implode. Attacking each other in the press, calling each other out in team meetings, not giving effort on defense at all, hell even Lebron isn't trying hard anymore.

    Stat isn't everything but CP3 is leading the league in real plus minus (Harden 2nd). He's "only" averaging 19-8, but his impact on the court is much, much greater than that, as it always has been throughout his whole career. Truly a great basketball player.

    You shouldn't. But LeBron isn't declining in my opinion. All guys get older and lose stamina, but when on the court he is gonna kick your ass all the same.

    He clearly is coasting for playoff ability and there is no enthusiasm and such a limited team as far as talent goes.
