    Game was lost when they cut it to six in the second with LeBron and bench crew, as soon as he goes out, lead goes to 13+

      This, I watched this happen and was like, why do they all get so bad with him out? Players almost throwing the ball at the brick is not his fault, players turning over sad passes is not his fault.

        Did they acquire Jordan Poole in the off-season?

        Seriously though, that’s how I felt watching the warriors all last season. The past few games haven’t been great for us, but that’s more the fault of the starters than the bench, which is nice for a change.

        Because he is ball-dominant and there is no one else to keep the rhythm. Lebron doesn’t allow anyone to grow into the position of running the offense which is why he leads his teams in every category every year. It’s not a recipe for team success.

        I think lakers problem more than their offense is their defense. They are getting cooked every first half. Missing hard schroeder and vando

        I’ve noticed this about LeBron teams in the past. The offense stops and starts through him, with not much ball movement otherwise. So when he’s out, the offense looks lost

          That was low-key one of the best parts of the Heatles. Wade and LeBron together didn’t always mesh perfect but either of them could run the offense.

      This is why I have 0 hope for a good playoff run. The bench can’t click, and for some reason, when LeBron is not on the court, they turn into the Monstars (without the powers). I know the season is still young, but I’m worried.
