sure but one thing you can compare is that some of those older guys like jordan and bird and russell had a killer instinct that lebron just doesnt have. bill russell used to work himself up into vomiting before games lol. jordan supposedly cant even handle losing against children in mini golf or w/e. etc
what you are describing is "sociopathy." lebron is the best basketball player of all time and isn't a complete dad-murdering psycho? just another W for lebron.

The real secret is to not to get shithammered every night there isn't a back-to-back and to stay in shape during the entire off-season and not gain 30 pounds then frantically work back into shape 3 weeks before they've got to report to camp but lmao saying it would be calling out 3/4 of the league.
can you imagine being on an NBA team and not doing that, though? i couldn't

bring back this poo poo. people should not be gambling any more than they can afford to go to vegas or (yuck) ac. i feel like this is an rear end in a top hat opinion, but goddamn i hate what gambling companies have done to any activity no matter how remotely or tangentially related to sports

Only way it's gonna change at this point is when the inevitable massive match (and statistics) fixing scandal gets uncovered. It's either already happening at scale or developing rn, the profit incentive is way too strong with how loose & non-existent state oversight of the industry is. I just wonder which sport is going to pop first.
NFL has the most interest/money but NBA has so many games that it feels like there is more opportunity there. NBA refs seem more crooked, too. just look at Eric Lewis's "retirement," or even refs having stupid but obvious beefs with specific player (Scott Foster and Chris Paul). those guys were just homers/haters. imagine what they could do with a profit movie

e: lol and that one city in NJ(?) where half of NBA refs all live in the same house and sleep together in one big bed

so Chris Paul decided he could shoot the ball last night which was kind of nice. The Warriors still have a lot of bullshit to work out but they are looking pretty good.

with that career shooting percentage, seems like he's making good choices about shooting vs. passing. he's down this year a bit but there's no reason to think it's anything other than a smaller sample size, and he's still an above average shooter, to say nothing of having two Jokic and Murray to keep the offense moving and find him when he's in a good spot.
it’s funny you don’t have to think so hard about it.

I can't believe they (OKC, NBA, someone) haven't suspended him yet, the worst that could happen is a union grievance for like 75k in three months and that's only if they don't pay him. just take the financial hit for a PR win
neither OKC nor the NBA want to make this a bigger deal than it already is. probably waiting for the cops to do something. they are absolutely gonna sweep it under the rug if she’s legal.
