When they can shade 10 feet off Vanderbilt, it doesn't leave anyone else much room.


He going to have to be able to make corner threes just a little ala cam


Lebron has definitely seen him wide open and doesn't even consider it. Has he even touched the ball in the halfcourt this courter?

Thats a problem then..Your telling the defense "Come on and make this a 5 vs 4 because we dont trust him at all" Heck even Bruce Bowen got to touch the ball in the offense sometimes...smh.

I said earlier that he is looking like a present day Jeremy Lin. Of course that was met with strong opposition. And I hope I'm wrong, but if this poor play continues through much of the season then that observation will have more validity.

Like clockwork. Dlo and Bron sit and don’t babysit AR and the offense goes to (bleep) to top off him not playing defense



Having both of them sit is a mess up. AD and DLo should sit and when time LBJ and AR should sit..you need one person to cordinate the the system and make passes. I guess this is where Gabe will help...smh.


Yeah I’m not getting how he doesn’t see it doesn’t work. Like Gilbert Arenas and Kenyon pointed out there was a 4 minute stretch where it was AD, AR, Rui, and no Bron and Dlo and AD shot it once and touched the ball once. There was stretches in other games like this where AD only got the ball as the bail out and he was the bailout twice that quarter while AR danced for nothing.

Kenyon said he would catch him in the locker room if he was ad be like my foot go go in your ass you don’t throw me than mfn ball every trip down when you ain’t doing nothing with it.

Dlo and AD gave a natural chemistry . … AR and Bron have chemistry so you might as well play on it. Bron and Dlo as well as AR and AD aren’t good combo with 3 other guys. It can be mitigated if Rui is out there just because he can score but there’s no point in the rotations as he has them

I would have used Ben Gordon as my example since Lin didn’t have playoff success. Ben had playoff success and got paid but his limitations showed after the pay day and being expected to be and do more

Brown has different skills though. He can put it on the floor, play point, go in the post, can play power forward, can defend on the perimeter, and do much more than Vando. It is why he was option 1 for the exemption this summer for LA, but I’ll never bash Brown for taking the bag from Indy. He’s making more in this one season than all the years of his nba career combined, he had to do it

The Pechanga package the guy just missed a free throw over is a one night stay with a $50 resort credit. What’s the big deal about that?

If you told me I would retain Dlo and could get Lavine for AR, Gabe, Prince, picks, swaps, rookie, and cash you would have to do it.

However AD has to ask for the ball..no demand the ball when he is on the court. He seems like he has the mentality of Lamar Odom he happy with whatever touches he gets and whatever points he gets. He cant be like that as a #2 on the team..He need to be like Bynum hois rookie season was to Vanjercic and say "Give me the D#mn Ball!"

I've noticed a lot of times when people miss the big prize and just go up to shoot the consolation free-throw their enthusiasm level goes down measureably lol

He cant be like that as a #2 on the team..He need to be like Bynum hois rookie season was to Vanjercic and say "Give me the D#mn Ball!"


That’s true too. The counter to that is Hakeem admits he would purposely get 3 second calls if they ignored him so they knew to throw it back in. AD isn’t selfish enough for that. And Shaq wouldn’t guard the yard, but we know AD naturally can’t say (bleep) it on defense. So yeah I agree with you he has to to just cuss someone out like you pointed out Bynum did or like Kenyon said.


The lulls to end the first and third quarters with AR and AD have been too problematic. He can’t even be Odom because Odom had the damn ball in the triangle bringing up and down the court so he had some control of it whereas AD needs you to give it to him

Bruce Bowen shot 40% from 3, and iirc, a little higher from the corner.

Lebron has obviously been seeing Jarred shoot in practice and is deciding going 1 on 1 has a higher chance of going in.
