kawhi in toronto can be lebron ruling the east for the next decade

Is Magic trolling Lebron with this roster?

Lebron trolled himself going to the Lakers

Never made any basketball sense

Only there to launch his career being amy schumer's sidekick

from reddit:

1. LeBron has made 4 more shots than Kobe Bryant on 3,310 fewer career shots
   
   
2. LeBron could go scoreless in 30 straight playoff games and still have a higher career playoff PPG than Kobe Bryant.

Just looked it up. The first stat depends on combining regular season and postseason, but is correct. The second one is correct as well.

I think Melo just played OKC and is going to go full heel and take the minimum to come off the warriors bench.

Hard to view it as him playing them. Atlanta is paying off his contract and OKC saved nearly $70 million in luxury tax payments, while picking up players that give them some options (whether an extra ball handler or trade bait). Whether he comes off someone else's bench or not, they had to get rid of that contract.

Bern also has 219 more yoff turnovers in 19 more games played than kobe

Hes the alltime leader, in fact, +170 and counting

Not questioning your logic but what does ATL get by buying out Melons contract? Seems like a waste of money while also trading some players.

Well yeah, he passes the ball.

Lakers keep adding cans. Honestly their best assets for LeBum were Ingram and Kuzma anyway. Helping them take it to the next level will make or break this team next season.

Juice just trying to recruit. Who is Beansley's best friend? Who did Juice party with in LA recently?

Spoiler

Ranch

Huge if true

Lmao dude wants to cry

 

[HunterSdVa29]

Well yeah, he passes the ball.

quite true, but he's by far the leader in TO, and yet 3rd in Assists by a decent margin
Mainly b/c his A/TO ratio is 1.95 in the yoffs, and Magic had a 3.37 and Stockton had a 3.56

Bird (2.1), Nash (2.77), and J.Kidd (2.81) are also in the top ten in yoff assists
his is better than Jordan, Kobe, Pippen, and T. Parker tho

Adding Beastley just puts the Lakers over the top.

 

[hearthstone25]

Oo if Lakes signed Zach Randolph thatd be cool

 

[berimBOWLoh]

Masai probably already got him more in endorsement money than pop did his whole career lol
