Bro this is exactly what I was thinking.


He had a weird mood yesterday. Yelling at team8s even when he made the
mistakes...very visibly too. Maybe he is dealing with things outside of the sport.

Kuzma and KCP are his ******

You can't expect this team to try to win everynight, that was GSW downfall.

Lets win 50 games while everyone is healtyh specially lebron and call it a regular season.

We Laker fans are the harshest and set the highest standards, ever.

CLE was just happy with winning 1 in 6-7 years. Laker fans expect a title, at minimum. Then, they want gramps Lebron to go out and repeat, just because Lakers title teams all do that, once (Kobe-Gasol, Kobe-Shaq 3 peat, Magic-Kareem repeat) etc. It is ridiculous the levels of expectations, but it is also a standard. I am happy the standard of ridiculous expectations is back, vs cheering on lottery picks to maybe become fringe all-stars on max contracts making Lebron money.

Nice bounceback game from Lebron. Looked like a ball Einstein out there compared to the reigning MVP and DPOY

It's crazy that Bron may actually win another MVP award at age 36. Malone/MJ are #1/#2 as oldest to win at 35 years old.

Who knows how the season ends, but it's up for grabs right now. Lebron is definitely in the running. A lot of it depends on what narrative the media wants to go with. They seem bored of Giannis. Embiid might be their new golden child. Or maybe the old man gets some love.

He gets another ring - the GOAT conversation just got more interesting. I think thats what he really wants.

If not Bron I thinks it's Jokic or Luka. Their team record is what holding them down as of now.

I hope even the media is not crazy enough to give Giannis a 3rd consecutive mvp. We get it the NBA needs someone to take over the league once LeBron retires..

I don’t see Luka having the record. The Nuggets could finish top 3 but the Lakers should hold on to the top seed giving Bron a good chance.

"Tonight was another example of him just seeing the other side of the floor and putting the ball on time, on target and guys knocking it down."

--LeBron on Davis

Made me understand LeBrons game a little better.....I always knew it but hearing him say it makes so much sense.

Everytime he is on the floor he is ALWAYS looking accross the court, puts the ball on time and on target for timely open 3 point shots (luka learned good). Sounds like this makes the game simpler for him.

Feel much better seeing Lebron can still turn up his game like he did against MIL. As long as he can still do that, we are good to go.

So annoyed how Giannis just runs a straight line through people and gets the blocking call, yet when LeBron does it, it's a charge, then when he avoids contact but gets hammered, it's a no call.

Pandemic is playing great basketball and it wouldn't surprise me to see the media vote him for the MVP.

Zero chance he keeps it up at the current level. He has had stretches like this before but he'll come back down to earth soon. I mean he's having a 50/50/90 season so far haha. To put it in perspective only 8 players I believe in NBA history have finished a year at 50/40/90. No doubt he deserves to be right at the top with probably Lebron, Durant and Embiid to start the season so far for MVP though. I'd rather him get this out of his system now though and get back to that nickname we all know and love by the Playoffs again.. Mr. Pandemic P!

Probably our best weapon...the Lebron/Caruso duo.

I am going to go out on a limb and say he might turn out to be a pretty good player.
