Is JJ Reddick a fireman or a plumber.
What about Jaxon Hayes? Why was he good enough to play extended minutes in the regular season but not in the play-offs?
The only person to blame is LeBron
Stephen A. is such a minstrel act… lame af…
Jaxon Hayes
So many excuses whenever a LeBron James lead team loses π€¦
Perkins thinks Lebron is the Goat so he is wrong regardless of what he says.
EveryBody hates Perk cause he just be talking about Nothing
But lebron plays all 5 positions well right? π why are we now debunking that fact when it is one of the foundations of his GOAT case. π
How you Worried about offense when you have James and Luka . Reddick shouldβve worried about defense . Big perk is right
They arenβt allowed to say it – LeBron is the problem and needs to be benched
Why no Dalton knelt the whole series, luka has no D.
J Williams talking only talking bc man JJ Reddick was not good at all man
Perc needs to give Bronβs nuts a rest he riding them until the wheels fall off πππ
Perkins is such an a$$ kisser for Lebron.
ESPN staffs can be shorts big time in Wall Street. Fake Pumping then short it to. Death
Luka Doncic basically removed Austin Reaves from the Lakers rotation and these fools are still asking some magic from Austin Reaces who is just suddenly eating bread crumbs from Luka π
Perk is absofucknlutely right Stephanie scared of jj and he's not gonna speak on him too much negatively there's plenty adjustments jj cudve made taking Jaxon Hayes off the floor was basketball ignorance we got out rebounded we had no rim protection and no paint points we had enough personnel jj misused them lebron can match up with Randle but gobert is too tall for him and it has nothing to do with bn in shape bcuz luka still gave them mufuckas the business every fuckn game wn ur playing bigger stronger players and ur banging against them it zaps ur energy faster and Gabe Vincent cudve guarded Edwards one on one til he got to the paint
Jwill is such a clown he's not going against his Duke brethren jj Reddick
J.Will with the Str8 face πI had the Timberwolves
JJ Redick got lost on his rotation, he already seen that the small ball is not working he did not make any adjustment and bron being Bron no defense and cant shoot under pressure………………..
Kendrick went in! ππ
