@originalslik kobe definitely got guys off their feet and then jumped into them to get fts with no intention of getting a good shot off. Sometimes he waited for them to jump and then would get a shot off over their declining contest, other times he launched himself into them to get the whistle
English
@NBAStatGuy_ Yes, Bryant used the pumps fake. It was to get guys off their feet to get his shot off.
SGA pump fakes specifically to draw a foul. Not to get a shot, but tundro draw a foul.
It is very different. And I'm not a Kobe fan.
English
When Kobe did it they called it crafty… sometimes I feel like we need to watch more film as a fan community
Jo@MavsStan41
We used to pump fake to get a better shot up in this league
English
@originalslik Same move, sga just spams it. But when Kobe was having trouble getting his shot off clean he’d start spamming upfakes too. Just is what it is, kobe was crafty, sga is annoying
English
@anthonydavisinc He would literally do it to get his defender in the air to then jump into him and get fts like what are we doing? SGA is more shameless, but Kobe def did it just to draw the foul too.
English
@NBAStatGuy_ Like the tweet says, Kobe was doing it to get space to get better shots. SGA if foul hunting. Not the same.
English
@440_gang @CaesarAmerican2 @LeShendyJames You really pivoted after being called out for avoiding the question.
English
@CaesarAmerican2 @LeShendyJames Replace Kobe with LeBron and Kobe numbers would’ve been much better than LeBron’s which would’ve resulted in a Cavs championship instead of being swept! Kobe played in the West!! So what’s the point of dropping the starting 5 the series was still winnable Lebron just choked! 👇
English
LeBron could miss his next 4,181 FGA's and still retire with a higher FG% than Kobe.

@Ceo_Branding Thompson missed Game 3 with a hamstring strain, and then tore his ACL in the 3rd quarter of Game 6 while he was absolutely torching Toronto. DeMarcus Cousins was playing on a partially torn quad, and Kevon Looney had a fractured collarbone. Facts matter.

🏀 LeBron Goaters Don’t Want To Discuss How Kawhi Leonard Carved Up The Warriors In 6 While LeBron Struggled To Win 1 Of 4 series.
Healthy Kawhi saw the Warriors dynasty and handled it like business.
LeBron faced them 4 times and needed:
• a 3-1 comeback
• Draymond suspension
• historic performances
• complete chaos
just to win ONE series.
Meanwhile Kawhi calmly dismantled Golden State in 6.
And yes KD only played one full game.
But LeBron had Kyrie AND Kevin Love for most of his battles too and lost a series when Durant wasn’t on GSW.
That’s why some people quietly believe PEAK Kawhi was a more championship level player than LeBron ever was.
Less hype.
Less theatrics.
More killer instinct. 😶
Plus Kawhi has the career win in head to head matchups 22-18 👇
🔥 CEO Branding Expert@Ceo_Branding
🏀 The GOAT Debate Gets Weird When You Realize Kawhi Leonard Beat LeBron More Than LeBron Beat Him. Kawhi Leonard is 22-18 overall against LeBron James across their careers. And before people scream “young LeBron”… No. Kawhi largely faced PRIME LeBron: Miami LeBron, late-prime Cavs LeBron, and veteran Lakers LeBron. That’s what makes this conversation uncomfortable. I can understand Tim Duncan having a winning record against LeBron. That includes many wins against young LeBron, etc. But Kawhi? A player from LeBron’s OWN era….. 30+ games later: Kawhi still came out ahead. That doesn’t automatically make Kawhi “better.” LeBron was not some untouchable/dominant force against his own generation. Which really weakens the GOAT argument. Steph has a winning record as well but we will not bring up because of super team arguments. But what do LeBron Goaters have to say about this? Before you bring up MJ…. Spoiler alert…. We are talking about prime of career era opponents so Larry Bird and Isaiah Thomas don’t count just like Tim Duncan doesn’t count against LeBron. Oooooops rug pulled. 😎
English
@MishaWilsonOff Did you know Klay had his best finals ever? 5 games he averaged 26 a game.
LeBron lost to a Durantless Warriors as well.
Lastly do we ding LeBron for Draymond getting suspended?
I don’t think so….
English
@LAemz It's not a bad thing to expand our front office. Wish it wasn't a Pelicans strategy guy, but I assume he was impressive in some respect.
English
IS THAT GOOD?
Shams Charania@ShamsCharania
The Los Angeles Lakers are hiring former New Orleans Pelicans vice president of strategy and operations Rohan Ramadas as an assistant general manager under president Rob Pelinka, sources tell me and @mcten. The Lakers have interviewed candidates to bolster their front office.
English
@OneforLA @johnbreeeezy @Rome_Beast for sure no, but if he was the vp of strategies for okc I think we'd be excited about that aspect too
English
@johnbreeeezy @Rome_Beast One person isn’t representative over the track record of an entire front office
English
dude hiring vps to be agms is so crazy
man i love the new regime’s process it’s elite
also this name was nowhere to be found

@ali_mohamed77 @ClarkGrifffin @j7zaza You understand this only makes u look pathetic right? Like, you at least have the awareness to understand you are only making a fool of yourself here?
English
@ClarkGrifffin @j7zaza Scared to take a heave in the finals so he don’t fuck up his percentages 😂

That Alien nickname hits different when you realize it was LEBRON who gave Wemby that nickname

@J_Kool @LRenfroe79264 @NycVipers Some people are so delusional. Incredible talent for the era but they are getting dragged by the top teams of this era
English
This is the team that won 72 games in the ‘90s🤔
They look like a bunch of G-League rejects
English
@Jiujitsu45 @J_Kool @LRenfroe79264 @NycVipers You know how memory works? Because ur claiming 30 year old memories as if that is an accurate source to cite. Go watch the film today and try to be objective
English
@J_Kool @LRenfroe79264 @NycVipers I have seen both at their times something you can't claim because you are to young . Just believe this old head that Chicago team was deadly

i want a front office that has a clear vision for success and the ability to execute it, not a front office that is trying to reverse engineer what they think will be successful
English

LeBron's longevity is incredible, but playing 20+ years just to match what MJ did in 15 actually hurts his GOAT case. Peak dominance > clocking into work for two decades.
English
@roadto80pct They dilute it with ethanol. Used to limit it to 3% now it’s allowed to be 10% in certain areas. May very well dilute it in others was too
English
@NBAStatGuy_ @ArnieSullivan @RODKING305 I just stated a fact. And you're acting like that's not a valid argument
English
How can you have the greatest career when you lost 6 times in the Finals???
NBA Debates@DebatesOnNBA
Does LeBron have the greatest career of any athlete in sports history?
English
@matickthegoat @ArnieSullivan @RODKING305 Lmaoooo you couldn’t help yourself but try to diminish a man who achieved way more than jordan with a shorter career
English
@NBAStatGuy_ @ArnieSullivan @RODKING305 I mean it was completely different back then. Only 8 teams and no free agency. You can add context to Jordan's career and it doesn't make it less impressive
English
@BEN_JAM_IN23 @Benzene21 Daniel M has an untamed ego and cannot function efectively in society.
English
@Benzene21 @NBAStatGuy_ Obviously Lebron is not a Center. He is however the only player in NBA history who can lose his Center to injury and then go fill in for him half the season at an All-NBA lvl. Explain to me how Basketball Reference is wrong listing him Center but Daniel M is right?
English
@BEN_JAM_IN23 @NBAStatGuy_ The year “he played center” is funny
Playing center when you are still playing your normal position means nothing. Listed position is just that, listed. Means nothing.
Also, he started only 14 games when AD, deandre and Dwight didn’t start/play. lebron as “center” is a lie
