I'm asking you nikka are you comparing this bum ass coach to Spoelstra back in the day or now.
Yet you won't answer you fukking Darvin Hamascarebear ass nikka, and proceed to call me unhinged.

And Lebron doesnt sign off on any of those moves? LOL. He's not in the know? Gives his approval or disapprovals?
Born wanted Ty Lue
Pelinka low balled him

they didn't want to try to keep him

You don't know shyt god damn casual

Next coach just gonna get dragged thru the mud by Jovan Buha like Vogel and Ham were. Can't even blame Shams for this one, this is probably 85% Buha.

I am comfortable and I love you
A lot of what went wrong in this series stemmed from players lack of effort (not getting back on defense/not rebounding or boxing out//missed free throws/50-50 balls :dame:). If we do those things, we win 2 more games, easy.

But to say the majority of this isn't Ham's fault is ridiculous. If your coach is so awful that your'e tuning him out by all star break, how is the team going to succeed when things get tough? If your coach is playing favorites, to the teams detriment (and his favorites just happen to be some of the worst players in the league), how do you succeed? If your coach can't draw a basic play to save his fukkin life, or know when to take a time out, how do you win games?

All of this starts at the top, and Pelinka's bum ass needs to go too. We've lost so many picks and players during his tenure and ended up with jack shyt.

We succeeded in spite of ourselves at a lot of points, but I still think we aren't winning anything with this group. Especially since we are into the luxury tax .

Blow it up

North Jersey but I miss Cali :sadcam:
If a 39 year old LeBron James is considered the best player on your team, what does that say about the rest of the roster? What does that say about AD?

When Lebron was in Cleveland, he said he wanted Kyrie to take the mantle from him. That was how many years ago? So at 38 he definitely didn't want the be the number 1 on the team at this point in his career.

Only casuals and Bron dikk riders think he the best player on the team. AD been the best player in LA damn near when he got there its no coincidence the game got away from em when his shoulder got injured. Same story in 2021. They was up 2-1 on Phoenix, AD dominatin the series and got hurt. Lost 3 straight after and the game he didn't play in they got ran off the floor by 30.

LA had a winnin record without Bron this season includin 2 against Giannis Bucks while they was 1-4 without AD. They even played the Spurs without Bron and then without AD the same week 2 days apart. Won the game AD played without Bron. Got blown out the game Bron played without AD.

This is silly without context......LA beat a struggling Bucks team 2 times because it's a good matchup for Dlo....Lillard is BBQ chicken......Now mind you. In both games, Milwaukee had a big lead and choked the lead away at the end because Lillard shot poorly and was taking some ill-advised shots

As for the Spurs games....Dlo and AD both sat the 2nd game......So the first gm, no Lebron...the 2nd gm, no AD/Dlo......If Dlo sits the gm AD played and played with Lebron in the 2nd gm, the outcome is probably reversed.

Now, is AD the most impactful player on the team?...Yes....unfortunately he can't be trusted....Too injury-prone and doesn't have the mindset of a #1 option.....AD's a great player but he isn't leading any team to a championship as the clear cut #1 option
