21 and 8 with Blake and Chris out while on the road made for a pretty gutsy performance, and was big for them in game 6 this year too. Didn’t say anything about his regular season production.

I meant in terms of a current nba player...

Did you just refer to Big baby as a NBA player?

Such victims.

Can only hope this is sarcasm that went over my head. If not, lawd...

I like TJ but I guess in that scenario if Frank Ntilikina (think he’s French, athletic PG that can play off ball) somehow falls past NY and Dallas then think he’d be a real good fit that would still allow for Simmons, Saric and Monk to primarily ball-handle.

Sorry, forgot to add that I think Lonzo’s catch and shoot ability is fine from what I’ve seen but admittedly unable to find that shot breakdown for NCAAB. His release worries me a bit but from the range he shoots it may prove to be a non-issue except in midrange opportunities.

Ideally, they trade down from the 3rd to swap 5 & 10 with the Kings, who I think should take Jackson who I love (to be cont.), and can probably grab Monk at 5 depending on how the draft is going or make another trade and still get him and another asset.

Agreed with you on that, I think Kareem and LeBron is very debatable since Kareem played on higher quality teams with 2 consensus top 15, if not top 10, guys and shouldered less of a burden.

Lonzo is solid off-ball, think if they were able to bring in a vet like Redick to work with this team and he, Embiid and Saric provide spacing then this team would look very interesting and could work.

“he’s not better than all of the best of the best ever not named MJ yet.”

But...that’d be a good fit.

Thank you, just call it what it is. Don’t think he’s better than Kareem or MJ yet but that’s moreso because of longevity and production.

So if he’s done it before and continues to do so as evidenced by the 15 in the 4th, why bring up the two instances of Kyrie going off as if to make it appear otherwise? And why fail to mention the block or lebron recording a triple double in a game 7 on the road.

Not sure how you call lebron definitively better than Kareem or how you think Russell is better than Kareem either unless you’re simply counting rings

Cool story, yet you took the time to respond again. Tell me more about how you’re a “Cavs fan” lol

Lol @ you pointing to kyrie bringing back the team in this game as if it’s a recurring theme yet ignoring a glaringly obvious recent case that proves that to be false.

Wade was still healthy for ‘11 and ‘12, and he’s arguably better than Pippen.

I get what you’re saying but your own criteria you just laid out doesn’t even support what you’re saying. Can just say it’s about rings and stop bringing up “big moments”, as if LeBron hasn’t killed that tired narrative.

Would be smarter and safer to use the tone against the delusional QB rather than with a guy you believe is a killer, no?
