i swear if lebron tried to score 2 points in a half again he couldnt do it ...unacceptable 
lonzo 3 point shot

What goes through this dummies head? He goes small in the final minutes of the fourth with Gasol and Jackson eating in the post all game.
Zu and BI were two of the leading scorers and he sits them until the game was almost out of reach

I’m not putting the loss on LeBron but I’m critiquing his first half and body language.
It’d be nice if we got more of our guys back and everyone was locked in. It’d be a very good win in what’s been a disappointment to the second half of December.

Gonna agree
That passive ass first half was whatever but I knew he would try to get going second half.
This was on Luke taking out the best defensive guy, Zu (having a damn near career night), and BI (who at that point had 20) throughout most of the 4th until the 3 minute mark.
Meanwhile, Conley has like a 14pt quarter and the Grizz proceeded to play us like we’re in Golden State.
This is solely on Luke’s shoulders tonight
He was efficient and scored 20 points, what more do you want from the guy? You sounding like a hater.
That wasn’t passive aggressive Lebron that was trying to let Ingram and Kuz be the focal points of the offense Lebron. There is a difference. You can tell because he was moving without the ball and playing defense tonight.

I mean part of this is on LeBron....Prime Lonzo Ball?
Tired of the excuses you guys make for this kid.
Lonzo was scoring just 10 points as a rookie. It was clear that he was going to take some time.
One issue I see people bringing up (LeBron trying to be play maker too much) and one issue not enough (Bron's rebounding)
Bron's in a tough spot trying to navigate Zo and BI's strength. However, if he just committed to being a scorer and TRYING to get 10 boards a night it would be for the best.
The day LeBron starts averaging 10 boards and just 4 assists don't be surprised if thats when Lonzo takes off.
Bron grabbing boards and kicking it to Lonzo and forcing him to run the break. Bron FORCING Lonzo to run the offense the majority of the time.
Luke, Magic, LeBron need to figure out a way to accelerate Zo's development or Zo will probably be "comfortable" just doing what he's doing.
I think adding Rondo wasn't the pressure needed for Zo (there's already enough pressure). They gotta give him the keys to the offense (or hope he takes them) or he'll keep doing whats he's doing.
Ya'all know that Bron is your guy now right, you don't need to make nonsensical dumb attacks on him anymore.
Over and over ya'all have told me that Bron driving to the hoop is a high % shot....but LeBron is somehow "protecting his %" by not driving to the hoop?
And what the hell would LeBron "protect his %" for at this stage in his career when a game is on the line? You think "his %" is more important to him that increasing his point total or winning the game? This is the same Bron you yell at every time he takes a step-back three late, so at least find a lane for your critique. And "playing p*ssy" is even worse, this is the guy who has put up 50-point games or damn near in the biggest playoff moments against the Pistons, Magic, Celtics, Warriors, but you think he's "p*ssy" against Memphis in December?
That's the #1 shot Lonzo is most likely to hit, you saying they should just be playing 4-on-5?
LeBron is obviously trying to get the young guns involved, if Lonzo is going to be ANYTHING in this team's future then he better learn to hit open threes. If your point guard who can't drive or hit midrange also can't hit an open three either, how the hell you gonna keep him on the team? And how is he gonna start hitting threes if you don't GIVE him threes to hit?
Ya'all let your hate consume you more than any type of logic or strategy at all.
