The post-Bron purgatory that every team goes through after completely selling out their futurue to get him rings :yeshrug:
Maybe not this year, but soon.
Yup. Warriors and Raptors are going thru the same thing after they sold their future to get Bron rings. I'm sure they regret winning now...

Lol @ the Pelicans catching the Spurs.

* NO is 30-36......They're going to all of a sudden win 6 games in a row with their weak defense and erratic shooting?

* SA owns the tiebreaker with NO.

* NO last 6 gms are against Phil, Char, Mem, Dal, GS, and LAL....All 6 teams have better records than NO.
and the spurs play BK, PHX 2x, NYK and Portland
your point? one team is slumping while the other team is at least treading water

I deleted my post..........After looking at SA's remaining schedule, the Pelicans could definitely catch them.

There should be no panic right now unless LeBron just completely shuts it down, a healthy Bron back in rhythm with AD is making the Finals. Ya'll stay on this reactionary shyt.
Them nikkas ain’t healthy that’s the thing

Bron is only like 70% and AD can get a season ending injury that will keep him out significant time if not all of next year at any minute it seems

They also fukked up not acquiring shooting team is not good on offense and it will be a tough, long road to a championship due to their seeding

70% of Bron still the best player in the world and as any player can get a season ending injury right now lol KD coming off a torn achilles himself as well as a hamstring

We'll see

Hell no

He will soon be 37 and his scoring motor isn’t what it once was. His foul rate has declined significantly. He has a bad back, a bad groin, and a bad ankle. This team spacing is not up to par and that makes it harder on him. AD hasn’t been AD all year. He’s not even All-NBA worthy this year.

This is it right here, they gotta go as hard as they can go. Bron is old and AD is not, nor has he ever been that nikka that he was made out to be when they mortgaged the future on him. Fake bubble ring masked shyt, but I never saw this team having real success. Hope I'm wrong though.

At some point Lebron won’t be a winning player anymore. Lebron has two years left on contract with the Lakers interested in how long he re-signs with them. Bron needs to play with someone better than him day to day so if he can make it to the Finals he has a stronger chance at the Finals MVP. Man can always argue that every time he’s won the championship he’s won Finals MVP and only Jordan can say that. (3 chips and up)

I don’t think AD can lead/carry a team as good as his other tall guy contemporaries. AD is always in pain. AD signed for big money (I can see the Lakers flipping him down the road.)

It’s 2021 and there will be a new group of winners that will shake up all time lists. It’s best to look at the NBA in five year chunks. Last five years really was Warriors vs Bron. Very interested in the next five years.
