The part about Dwight crying and being forced to play in 2013 after player meeting :skip:



Randle not even getting an offer:what:


Team source saying Rondo not affected after AD drama, Rondo was literally tanking games with his bowling ball passes

That damn team source was obviously ignoring how well BI was playing throughout the trade rumors

So Cal
Bryant, Dwight Howard, Steve Nash & Co. aired their grievances at a morning shootaround, leaving Howard in near tears in the locker room, according to sources. Howard had to be coaxed out to join the team on the court after everyone had said their piece.

The blame for this season doesn't go on Lebron, although he certainly didn't help matters with his shytty leadership

The blame is solely on the Front Office and training staff, and that's even scarier.

I think even the most staunch anti-Bron elements in here can agree that the front office is the big reason for this nightmare.

The meeting in Memphis was a retort of sorts. In what became an open forum, several players spoke up. Players focused on James' inconsistent body language throughout the year. The four-time MVP copped to the critique, telling his teammates that, in essence, cutting out behavior like slumped shoulders and sideways glances has been something he has tried to work on his entire career.

The next night, James seemed to take the criticism to heart, putting his arms around guys during huddles, looking engaged during timeouts, and being vocal on defense -- but the Lakers still lost, 110-105, to a Grizzlies team that had lost 17 of their previous 20 games.

Good to see bron was willing to listen to his teammates and acknowledge his bullshyt and try to do better. Props to Bron for that hopefully he can come back next season with a fresh start as a better leader.
