Bruh I love you Bron but if we’re gonna blame the IST for lingering 7-10 days later, then I have to wonder it was worth it

Maybe this took more outta them then we realized and that anyone cares to admit. Not gonna question Bron assesment

Lebron needs to stop making excuses.

i totally called it.. we were gonna go on a slump after IST due to the high wearing off
super common in other athletes and sports too!

The NBA should give automatic playin position to the team winning the In season tournament.

I don’t get it. Indiana is a MID team. Is it a surprise if they suck since vegas too?

IST is a major trophy so it is totally ok for the team to have some setbacks. In Europe, it is rare for teams to win double, let alone triple or more trophies. Fans need to stop expecting that

I don’t buy that. They’ve had plenty of rest since then (Lakers).

The Championship game didn’t even count towards the regular season so you had guys out there risking an entire season just for $500,000. I understand the concept, but if somebody gets hurt playing in that game, then players and front offices are going to have something to say about it.

If winning the IST really took a toll on them, then they should had rested all of the starters for a couple of games (2-3) and just play the bench/South Bay Lakers. They kinda half-ass did that already, for example against the Spurs. They should just went full rest mode and rest Lebron, Reaves and the rest of the players with more mins.
This last 3 losses would not hurt if all starters could have got a full week of rest.

It’s like the championship hangover. We need a few weeks to get back into rhythm

Wtf is this title

I didn’t think about it, but yea playoff intensity then going back to regular season vibes would cause a slump. You can’t get up as excited and focused on a regular season game when you just came from a tournament with higher stakes. Takes some emotional time to reset and refocus
