"Building around LeBron was miserable" -David Griffin (article)

[10bandz]

but LeGBT said it was just mentally ill kobe stans making up stories when we said Bron wasnt bringing it last year like usual. Griff, being a professional, is able to look beyond "27/8/8" and can tell the truth. Hopefully the addition of AD and Boogie gets his motivated and he doesn't get blocked by euro cacs next season

When you overcome immense adversity to achieve greatness...it fulfills you


Clearly the warriors have never achieved that nirvana, being the bytchmade team that they are

Not roster

One minute he’s the GM and running things.
The next he doesn’t care about winning. Which narrative do y’all want?

And DG should focus on making sure the Pelicans win more than 30 games.

Bron did that franchise a favor by coming back after the shyt Gilbert said. Be lucky you got a championship from it and sit your ass down somewhere.

Griff ain’t lying tho

The reality is, when you have an elite player (or players), there is a great deal of pressure to win. And the grind of it wears on everyone.

There isnt a GM anywhere, ever, in ANY SPORT who was part of a big time contender or dynasty that wasnt exhausted or took less joy in the job as time went on.

LeBron only played 55 games and was only healthy for about 30 of them.

Lonzo only played 47 games and was hurting most of the year

Ingram only played 52 games

Rondo only played 46 games

Kuzma only played 70 games


You have THAT many key players missing THAT many games and you don't think it's an obvious excuse? (And you can keep going down the roster - Hart only played 67 games, Lance only played 68 games, Chandler only played 48 games, McGee played 75 games but wasn't 100% for a significant stretch.)

Lakers were trying to figure out how to play together last year and couldn't do it cause every damn player on the team was hurt all the time and they never had a single roster to gel together.

So after the 2016 title. Lebron lead the cavs to the finals in 2017 not caring about basketball? Then 2018 his sidekick demanded a trade and lebron once again lead the cavs to the finals. He did all that without caring about winning . This man been playing this game for most of his life, wants to be the best ever and now he just don’t care about it no more.

they didn't shyt with him neither.

Oh yeah I forgot, they won the 4th place on xmas championship

I mean that’s better than where they were without him, correct? I mean they traded them wack nikkas away. You don’t gotta still blindly defend them

Jordan and Kobe were nothing like LeBron. Stop comparing Bron's p*ssy passive aggressive tendencies and need to always shift the blame onto others with straight killers like Jordan and Kobe.

Jordan and Kobe were straight forward. Bron works behind the scenes like a bytch.

This is why I'm convinced most Bron stans are fakkits and pussies. I honestly don't know how anyone can be a fan of the way Bron operates with his passive aggressive bullshyt. I'm sure most men prefer someone like Kobe just yelling at Mitch Kupchuck to his face when he got a problem rather than doing all the weird p*ssy shyt LeBron does.

Go take your medication, swag

The Bron Ball system is it's own GM. Any "figurehead" who assumes that position on a team led by Lebron is just a puppet. That's why Chauncy Billups didnt want no parts of that shyt after Griffin left.

And Griffin is telling the truth about Lebron losing his competitive edge. I think LeBron really sees this time in LA as some kind of victory lap for his career. Taco Tuesdays and Space Jam seem more important to him than winning these days. Hope he realizes that he does have more to prove, his legacy can definitely be tarnished over these next 2-3 years....hell not making the playoffs this year put a sizable dent in his armor.

I just hope he takes next year serious and brings the intensity that he lacked last season. If the Clippers win it all next year Lebron will never live that down

After the 3-1 comeback, him and Kyrie’s legacies are set

@CHICAGO can you merge this with the other thread, sir?
