Mikal Bridges, Spencer Dinwiddie, and Cam Johnson have played more minutes together on the Brooklyn Nets than Kyrie, KD, and James Harden did, per NBATV.
5' 10" former point guard

Career highlight: 1973-74 championship, Boston Celtics

Career lowlight: traded for a washing machine

LOL that's hilarious. But then again, Kyrie did practically miss a whole season due to being unvaccinated and/or for "personal reasons" (aka world issues which bothered him)

Now 17 in the 3rd.

Now 20 in the 4th

Lebron returns and AD suddenly looks mediocre again.

Whole team looks mediocre today. Reaves has also turned back into a pumpkin over the past few games

Think lakers plays better without LeBron
C/PF-Horford, Baynes, Noel, Theis, Morris,
SF/SG- Tatum, Brown, Hayward, Smart, Semi, Clark
PG- Irving, Rozier, Larkin

The bulls were actually only 5 point underdogs (by comparison the mavs lost as 12 and 16 point favorites their last two games). The lakers are not a great team. I don’t really understand the push to say they are some contender or something and they definitely are not even a guarantee to make the playins. David is maddeningly inconsistent. Russell has been passed around the league like it is a white elephant party for a reason. Their roster has major flaws and Lebron is just not Lebron anymore without even mentioning coming off another serious injury.

Yes, but not on purpose.

At some point you have to blame the performance on the court on the players on the court. Every loss is not the coach's fault and every win isn't because of the players.

Washington and Indiana are now 4 games behind Chicago, Toronto, Atlanta in the loss column. Play-in games are going to be intense…

Man saw some highlights of the lakers game today and Lebron was an absolute statue defensively. I’m not sure if that ankle will heal further with him playing (two doctors apparently suggested season ending surgery for him). But yeah if he can’t get a little quicker defensively he is going to be a net negative for them.
