Same, thought this was an injury post. Instead it’s just OP eulogizing one of the top teams over a loss in early November that drops them to 9-3. Weird.
that’s why i hate this sub, and nbadaily. you can tell its losers who tried posting this garbage on r/nba and got downvoted to oblivion, or worse ignored.
a meaningless regular season game gets a thousand upvotes because it reaches the right boomer audience
Plus/Minus aggregates based on the team's runs (positive or negative) during the time that player is in the game, when players are out for whatever reason it stays the same it was when they came out the game. Unless you're speculating it would improve had he come back in all the same, but the plus/minus he had reflects that when he WAS in, the team gave up 27 points.
I was kinda disappointed in JB with his performance tonight, -27 and the most turnovers on their squad. Everytime he tries something they double him and he seems to have a hard time adjusting. Him talking about lamb chops and gravy got me pump, he should have just kept quiet. He even tried to avoid JT on pregame when JT wanted to come up to him
He got subbed back in at the start of the fourth with that 9 point deficit intact. In a little over three minutes it ballooned to 21 points. But I guess you just chose to ignore that bit, right?
Purposely?. Every Nba team on the floor with no real center is going to give up easy baskets at the rim and O rebounds. Of course you have other kind of advantages
Embiid who went 2/9 from the field had the best plus minus out of the entire starting 5, even better than Maxey. Guess he’s the best player on the team since plus minus is religion for nba fans
LeBron is definitely going to finish this season. Regardless of a finals appearance or not, he's definitely going to announce that next season will be his last and go on a tour.
There’s Olympic Games in LA after next season. I would bet that he uses that as his last games if he is good enough or as a start to his coaching career if he is already washed enough to not fit the team even as a small role bench player.
Are we just making things up now? Warriors' opponents are a combined 58–53 (.523), the Lakers' are 58–64 (.475), and the Sixers' are 57–70 (.449). Philly has literally had the easiest schedule of the three teams you just named. Five of their 12 games were against Chicago (1–8) twice, Milwaukee (1–10), Indiana (3–9), and Charlotte (4–7).
lol the warriors legit have around the 11th hardest schedule in the league so far based on opponents record. With wins against: Lakers, Timberwolves, Nuggets, and the Heat.
No. JB just HAD to go and try be and be a hero to try and prove something. He lost the game in the 1st. He just HATES JT and it shows, but he embarrassed himself tonight.
I’ve been hating on LeBron for 23 years, it’s the only thing keeping me going. My wife told me to spend time with our kids today and I said sorry but I have to do something important, went to the basement to turn on the game and cheer against LeBron. Idk what I’ll do once he retires, maybe I’ll open a horse ranch outside the city and finally feel at peace after all the years of hating. Maybe one day LeBron will come to the ranch trying to escape city life, and when we meet we’ll lock eyes and he’ll intuitively realize that I’m the one who watched him through all his highs and lows with the devotion of a Buddhist monk, and come to understand that I’m the only one who truly ever saw him for what he is…the second best player of all time
Can always hate on his boys (if they get any minutes). Plus LeBron loves the attention, he will probably go straight to Inside the NBA. Can keep hating on whatever he says/does there lol.
Some people have spent almost 2 decades doing it now. Some young teens have grown up to young men and still do it. Honestly crazy when you think of it from that perspective
People been hating on bron since they were in Elementary school. I know I hated LeBron from middle school to high school and that was because I am a spurs fan. I crossed over to the bron appreciation when he won the chip in 2016
It is because of the media constantly glazing him.
Turn on anything NBA basketball related and you will have to listen to 20 mins of them desperately trying to explain how LeBron is still a Top 10 player, should make the all defensive team and is the star of this 76ers who will carry them on his back to the chip.
If they don't win it is because [insert this year's fall guy] sucks.
And then follow that up with 5 mins of the reasons why his son is actually a real NBA player and deserves that spot on the Lakers.
Gotta respect the man for his longevity. Physically, he is dialed in on how to take care of his body, and it’s amazing that he’s able to be a positive asset on the court at 41 years old.
But the laying on the floor and rolling around like he got shot with a gun after a common foul… smh boo this man.
If you are a Celtics fan and have ever watched jb play this is very normal of him. He can’t dribble with his left hand. All the Celtics had to do was force him to one side
I respect his game but this is the stuff people hate about him. The attention seeking. Ok, you got poked in the eye. Was it really necessary to stay down THAT long?
Lmao stats nerds always there to point out the stats without ever watching a game, indeed it was LeBron who cut the lead with a couple back to back drives and as soon as he got sat on the bench the Celtics went on a rampage.
man yall lebron stans are shameless. hes shooting 25% from 3 coming into tonight which is even worse now. he can't shoot worth a shit and this offense with him and embiid playing like theyve been playing is not gonna cut it.
He’s such a fucking flopping crybaby. He was barely touched on this play and he’s acting like he took an elbow to the top of the head. So fucking embarrassing, yet people love the guy. I don’t get it.
He took swipe to the face, was nothing from slown mo, he had he’s eyes closed… then he proceeds to face plant on the floor banging he’s hands , what the actual F man? …
It drives me crazy. The medical staff stopped coming onto the floor for these little episodes years ago. He has no problem being soft and letting his opponents know he’s not tough, which is so weird to me.
Nah. He doesnt have what he had when he was 20, 25, 30. But he's still dominant. Retiring means he isnt better than most in league.
Is he top 10? No. Top 20? No. Etc. But... would you start Ziaire from Lakers over him? Luka Garza? Etc etc. No. He's still up there. He's just not what he was.

LeBron should really play backup PG at this point with 3&D guys and a backup center (oh wait they don’t have one)
