Lakers are not good because their leader (Lebron) doesn’t play defense and hasn’t made an All Defensive Team since 2014. Espn will never report this information due to their propaganda campaign partnership with Lebron.

Last I heard, MVP didn’t mean “Missing Valuable Player” — quite the opposite! It stands for Most Valuable Player, recognizing the top performer in a game or season.

This rule is necessary! These players need to play that is why they get paid so much, soend the money to keep yourself in shaoe and get the best treatment, like Lebron soends over a million on his body each year, fans who dont get paid nearly as much as these athletes want to go to the game to see thier favorite stars, unless they are actually hurt they need to be there and be playing.

That’s the problem y’all not blaming lebron he’s the team ball hog takes most of the shots and none of the blame and he doesn’t play defense and just stands under the goal and gets trash points and rebounds

I don’t care how “great” LeBron is, you can’t run an offense through a 39 year old ball hogger

Magic is the greatest point guard in nba history and has 5 rings but as far as greatest point guard with longevity that happen to be John Stockton, he played almost 2 decades for the Jazz and the all time assist leader. But one problem Stockton has zero rings, obviously

The Nba is really adding new rules so that them and Vegas could profit!

The rule is well overdue but you have to feel it for people like tyrese and klay a few years ago that miss out on huge amounts because of contract clauses.

Can’t wait for bronny to join the Lakers next year. They might actually break the pistons losing streak

There has to be another way to curve players sitting out than this mandatory rule, or lower it to 62-63. Especially the all NBA team. Sometimes a player is actually hurt
