Still laughing about Lebron going to the post game presser with his hand wrapped.

It’s like ok, you hurt it over a week ago, you never wrapped it or did anything to show it was hurt since then (fair enough) but you couldn’t wait another 15 minutes to get that hand wrapped so you had some excuse to present to the media.

Just fuckin hilarious.

It is crazy to look at the 2003 draft in relation to Lebron James.

1. Lebron - arguably best player in the game playing like he’s in his prime.

2. Darko - ummm ooops
3. Melo - worn down chucker coming off his worst season
4. Bosh - forced into retirement due to Heart issue
5. Wade - a shell of himself playing his last years in Miami as a 6th man.
6. Kaman - probably somewhere in the Pacific Northwest harassing campsites
7. Hinrich - Hung on for as long as he could but finished now.
11. Mickael Pietrus - the “French Jordan” shows how much we think of the French
12. Nick Collison - been playing for the minimum since his rookie contract expired lmao
14. Luke Ridnour - remember him?
18. David West - yea that old dude on the Warios bench that seems like he’s been around forever.
27. Kendrick Perkins - Bench Enforcer, hasn’t played in years but scowls at
Opponents from the bench.
28. Leandro Barbosa - retired
29. Josh Howard - he was good, and then he wasn’t, last season 2012 lol.

Other notable players
Jason Kapono
Luke Walton
Steve Blake
Zaza Pachulia
Matt Bonner
Mo Williams
Kyle Korver

In every case outside of Vampire Korver, they have either fallen out of the league or are on the very last of their legs... and then we have Lebron going for 34-9-9 in the yoffs.

What an endorsement for heavy doses of the juice.

Yea, and the last year of his prime was 2010-11, the last year he was even remotely himself was 2013-14 and now he’s been reduced to roughly half the player he was. (Or less)

Not bad, but much more normal and human decline. By Dirks 15th season he was already falling off noticeably, but his game has aged well and Dallas’s decline into a rebuild has kept him employed in the “Were not tanking, except we are really tanking” way.

well ya, he's also 7' tall so the decline was inevitable

i'm more shocked at his A) lack of injury history and B) he's still playing (although maybe he needs money due to taking paycut)

Dirk is German, his kids, kids, kids and there on will still be living off his money. Money will never be an issue (likely why he keeps taking pay cuts)
 
Mark Cuban needs to have the Chuck Liddel talk with Dirk

Nobody wants to see his old ass run up and down the court no more
 
Great question

Poses the question of how long can Lebron continue to be the elite-elite.

He averaged 12/5 last season on 24 minutes/game. Also provides veteran leadership, and basically the face of the org. The fact that he's still playing, let alone being above average, after 20+ season, is a testament to his greatness. As far as I'm concerned, only Karl and Chuck are ahead of him at the 4 spot all-time.

So Dennis Rodman is on CNN right now. Apparently he tried to facilitate talks with NK and Obama blew him off lol. What makes it worse is that he's a Bulls fan haha
