Or there's the option. You trade Love for picks and assets. Someone like Phoenix may be in for Love as they want to start winning. From the East, Magic or Bucks could be in for Love as well. Anyway, you use that pick or two and combine it with a contracts like JR + George Hill to get Kemba + Batum from Charlotte. That way you keep you also keep that Nets pick.

Kevin would be a great fit in Utah next to Gobert. He's familiar with Rubio, would have a competent coach to game-plan for him effectively, and it's closer to home.

Ohh yeah.

But what can we possibly get from Utah now?

I would want Rubio + Jingles for Love but they aren't doing that.

With this logic why hasn’t LeBron turned to instant garbage or show signs of declining from his Miami days even at his age??? I know it seems like the gay thing to do is criticize Lue at given any opportunity. In reality it’s up to these grown ass adult players to perform. Most have been playing since the age of 5, the effects a coach has on their individual performance at this stage of life is extremely minimal.

Because Lebron is the system. Everyone stands around at the 3 point line and waits for him to do something. Which really throws off a lot of guys rhythm who are use to touching the ball a lot more throughout the game.

What do you mean by "gay thing to do?"

Because Lue let's LeBron do his thing. And why wouldn't you?! LeBron running an offense is still quite possibly the best option in the history of the NBA. But guys who are at their peak having plays ran, tend to struggle next to LeBron.

Rubio needs the ball in his hands, and LeBron might let him run the offense, but the spacing for LeBron when LeBron has the ball in his hands would be sketchy. So he might not be terribly keen to that idea.

I haven't seen enough of Ingles, but I get the feeling he'd do just fine in this "system". Stand still, catch ball, make 3 pointer.

Best option in the history of the NBA? how so? Lebron as the PnR Ball Handler is probably the most consistent great offense, but certainly not the best.

You can certainly have the best offense with Lebron, though he would have to do things differently and not be the main ball handler.

Lebron's teams never had the best offense in the league...which is ridiculous to me and speaks volumes about Lebron ball.

His teams have consistently approached, and last year shattered, the all time record for postseason Ortg

The word "gay" hasn't always meant homosexual since shortly after the AOL inception of the internet (mid 90's). It is used by some people to describe something as stupid, dumb, useless, pointless or garbage.

It picked up traction with the "fake and gay" meme around the late 90's early 2000's which later morphed into the "seems legit" meme about 10 years ago. Gay was also used against hard right evangelical moral arguments during the mid to late 90's to make them sperg out and reveal their hypocritical authoritarian nature.

Think of the South Park "F Word" episode in regard to context (not a defense just an explanation of origin in regard to forum trolling). The goal in this situation seems to be an attempt to get people to sperg out over a single word / pharse.

It still wouldn't make sense if he meant it as "stupid" or "dumb" though...
