Watched part of this on my lunch break, I am sorry but LeBron is as dumb as dogshit. When I compare the way he speaks to say Jordan or Kobe he comes across as a total dummy. Steve Nash does most of the talking and LeBron nods and says "no doubt, no doubt". Maybe this is why he can't get past the first 10 pages of a book.

LeBron really is just an average iq negro from a typical background. He was a generational talent in basketball who surrounded himself with financially literate people. Nothing more, nothing less. He may be street smart but he's painfully ill equipped to talk about anything outside of basketball and he proves it time and time again. And even when talking about basketball you can almost hear the drool forming in his glands. He's someone who tries to put on the interview persona but he's transparent as plastic wrap. He's spent allot of time in the presence of those who are actually coherent in their thoughts and those who can articulate themselves, those you can tell are learned and intelligent, and it shows. He wears the skin suit of those smarter than him as well as Bubba wears his mask.
 
41 year old LeBron carrying his team to the win against KD and the Rockets. That man isnt human.
 
Is it safe to say that the Wolves have solved the Nuggies at this point. Also Gobert had Jokic locked down despite the fact he put up 27 & 15. They hate needs to stop.

Gobert has been severely under respected his entire career for just how nearly perfect he is at the exact thing that he needs to do. I'm a big fan.
 
Hawks get another close W against the Knicks.

I hope they gentleman sweep the Knicks. That'd be the funniest thing.
 
If Minnesota eliminates Denver again the whole internet is going to meltdown.

It will also make it much easier for the Spurs to reach the Western Conference Finals.

Wolves went out and got Gobert specifically because he bullies the hell out of Jokic. Denver looked like the toughest team in the west so it was a calculated move to just beat those fuckers on the way to the final.

Then the Thunder happened, and now the Spurs are happening, and the Mavs might get something going on pretty soon. But yeah this is a nightmare matchup for the Nuggets.

New York is so ass they went from getting owned by 5ft11 Trae Young to letting Steve Urkel looking ass CJ McCollum get two game winners back to back. Coupled with another major stinker form Mikal 'Five First Round Picks" Bridges. The Knicks are in full meltdown mode with no way to back out. Poor Thibbs was catching the blame for a very poor roster.

Yup, the window never opened for Minnesota, they were too green in 24 even if they beat the Luka Mavs and now the Thunder & Spurs are the new teams to beat. The only thing that can save this iteration of the Wolves is going East via expansion.

People clown on him for Luka hitting that shot over him in 2024 as though centers are expected to stop one of the game's most offensively potent guards at the perimeter

I think the Gobert hate is 3 main things. He doesn't play offense, Shaq doesn't like him and will never let anyone forget it, and he's kind of a jackass in his personal life. The dude is a surefire hall of famer and an all time defensive player but good luck telling anyone who isn't a nerd that. I guess this is what happens when you get a Mutombo or Ben Wallace type who isn't cool.

It's funny, I kind of thought of Ben Wallace here too with the DPOYs. Gobert is obviously miles better than he ever was, I'd say on both ends. And I LOVED those Pistons teams.

I dunno about that, remember Ben Wallace was like 6'8" and could guard anyone and led the league in rebounding and blocks. Gobert struggles to defend smaller players and has only led the league in rebounding once and blocks once despite being 7'2" and a defensive specialist. I would also argue Ben stood out defensively in an era that was very defensive league-wide, whereas Gobert stands out in an era when defense is an afterthought for most players. Big Ben also won a championship and had much better success in general in Detroit than Gobert has ever had, although I will concede the East at the time was very weak. Gobert is better offensively than Ben was but they both are the fifth option offensively whenever they are on the court so there's no meaningful separation between them there.
 
41 years old and he's still doing LeFuckYou3's






KD was so lucky he joined a super team to get his championships because every team he's tried to be the guy on has failed miserably.
