This is a concern. Seemed like Lebron kind of kept JR on a leash the year they won the championship. Since then, JR's fallen off the map and when things go bad for JR, he can bring a whole team down.

Maybe he doesn't like soup.

BTW....that play LBJ had last night was one of the most ridiculous things I've ever seen. Think it may have been kind of an accident but man that was sweet.

Yes BR, he did not mean to go through Thompson’s legs lol. He admitted it already.

Posted that before I heard his interview on my drive home. Didn't think he could intentionally do it but for his mystique he should've lied. lol

That dunk by Nance was ridiculous. Also ridiculous, 73 points for Denver.

Does their defense just magically approve in the playoffs?

Defense sucked all season. Traded half the team, defense still sucks. Sounds like a huge coaching issue to me.

I think we will see:

  1. Hill
  2. Smith
  3. LeBron
  4. Love
  5. Nance

With Osman, Hood, Clarkson and Korver getting the rotation minutes. Tristan maybe depending on matchup. I think we see LeBron at the 4 to close games. Nance likely the 5, unless Love is hot

Same with TT. If the trade deadline wasn't over, I'd say ship him off for a Season 3 box set of "Keeping up with the Kardashians." It's astounding how bad they are when he's in the lineup and how good they are when he's not.

Also shows how terrible of a coach Lue is. If this doesn’t convince him that TT needs his minutes heavily reduced than I don’t know what will.
