I guess lebron is a “beta male” since this guy is arguably the 2nd best player ever to play the game. no, this guy doesn’t give a s--- about his legacy...just space jam 2 and Hollywood. ok edit: double lol...Kyrie Irving is your “alpha” scorer? Haha how is that funny? the only thing laughable here is that you fall for espn’s agenda and truly believe that a guy whos 3/9 in the finals while playing on superteams in the eastern conference is “the 2nd greatest player ever”. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Did you know that lebron was so good when he came into the league at 18, it was the driving influence of Boston creating their “big three”. they knew that once he matured, he would be an unstoppable force and they were right. lebron didn’t win rings because we currently live in an era of teams creating bs mini all star teams. this wasn’t around during Jordan’s day ( to this degree). Lebron went to calm his buddy down. so what. if I play a pick up game with some guys I just met and my best friend is on the other team and there’s a dispute...I’m going to try to calm s--- down. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

ellejamil 788 Posted October 23, 2018 Share Posted October 23, 2018 (edited) Spurs doubling him, stationing Aldridge in the paint so no screeners can roll down, his teammates can't hit the rim except for *Hart >> feels like Cleveland all over again.

You're calling a 6 ft 8 250 pound jacked professional athlete who is worth 400 million dollars a beta, and then referring to others as keyboard warriors.

Kriggly 282 Posted October 23, 2018 Share Posted October 23, 2018 Anyways, back to the fantasy discussion. Everyone was projecting he is going to get less usage, minutes, and stats compared to last year considering he isn't pushing for a championship. He's in for the long haul with the Lakers as opposed to the single year contract championship runs he had with the Cavs. He'll also be playing teams in the west every night. I'd imagine he'll get similar percentages with slightly lower counting stats across the board, but the dude is a machine and will be pretty reliable overall from an injury perspective. I think he'll maintain mid to late first round value. If you drafted him outside of that range you were taking a known risk. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
