Meanwhile, Brooklyn is currently on a 12 game winning streak.
Even LeBron would find his title insulting.

They are playing lottery teams that want to lose. All meaningless. Even if they somehow made playoffs they would lose 4-0 or 4-1.
I'm sorry Bron but Malika's beauty keeps distracting me from this topics
I'm doubting my Clippers so much, I decided to put parlays on the Kings and Warriors. I have bets like Clippers and Nets winning their division but I added Kings and Warriors.
As usual, my Clippers are blowing it. Lost 3 in a row and all were winnable. I'm not sure Ty Lue wants to win anymore. He and Brian Shaw were former Lakers. More asinine closing lineups by Ty costing us more games.
Ty won't play Mann, Kennard, or Powell when they're playing good. So he brings a small ball lineup because he's a midget himself and we can no longer rebound. His lineups are sabotaging our season.
Clippers should be #1 in their division if they played their full potential. Booker is out. AD is out. Steph is out. What do the Clippers do? Squander the golden opportunity like they do every year.
My Clippers can't even win 4 in a row. Warriors already won 5 in a row without Steph. The Warriors are only 1/2 behind us. Clippers are a joke like they've always been the last 53 years.
Now I hear Paul George might be out some time. Like clockwork. Clippers just let Kawhi and PG do whatever they want like what the Nets did to KD and Kyrie. Then Kyrie stepped all over Nash.
Clippers have this golden opportunity to separate themselves from the division rivals. But what do they usually do? Kawhi is sick. PG is out. They'll win 3 in a row and then lose 3 in a row. Sick of these Clippers.
Go, Warriors! And I hate the Warriors. But at least they can still win games without their best player. Clippers can be mediocre when both stars are playing.
I put $1 on Warriors, Mavs, Nuggets, Nets, Heat, and Cavs to win their division and the payout is $850+.
Pay attention to the Bucks. Losing a lot lately. Cavs might catch them. And Mavs are only 2 back behind Memphis. I think Pelicans will falter with Zion out again. Nets, Cavs, Mavs, and Warriors have been hot lately. Bucks, Suns, and Clippers are not.
Nuggets and Heat should win their respective divisions easily. I don't see Blazers or Hawks catching either one. The worst division is the Southwest. This leaves me rooting for Nets, Cavs, and Mavs to win their division while I have the Pacific covered by Clippers, Kings, and Warriors.
He's trying to pass Kareem before the 🅰️ll-star break, which would be the game at home against the Thunder or Bucks❗
The media already covering for Lebron with this whole "Play-in would be a great accomplishment". Lebron is failing in a team he built. Stop making excuses
LeBron is An ENIGMA. ONE OF ONE.
He's playing the best stretch of his Career…. in his 20th Season 💯 GOAT
Man did he just do a Alley op reverse clutch back dunk wth I'm dazzled 😵😵who do you know in your life doing this at 38.bro he can be 40 and might still be doing these dunks if it's one player deserves retirement it's this man crazy
And if they do get the playoffs he’ll be pooped
Break the record and sit the rest of the season. This team ain't going anywhere. Jeanie and Rob should be ashamed
He really said, “I’ve been scoring 30 and it hasn’t worked…so let’s try 40” 😂😂
There are MANY GREAT ONES TO REMEMBER…..💯
I mean donavon put up 71 but if course espn doesn’t care
Time to trade AD
Greatest One Way player of all time
He’s just goating

The goat
its not an NBA Today episode until they talk about the Lakers……smh (eye roll)
What about all the minutes Brian?? 😁 every time he mentioned kd last yr or this yr he mentions the minutes
This man just said a great accomplishment would be a play-in spot for the lakers?? How sway😁
Brian Windbag "LeBron always squeezes the most out of his teams"
REALITY: LeBron's teams have had more wins than expected 4 times in 20 years
Thats why his tha goat better than jordan😊
A play in spot? Lol they are a whopping 2 games away from a play In today. Just say playoffs. I know y'all scared to say 🤦😂
Lebron is terrible.
Lebron is playing out of his mind right now ridiculous numbers he is putting up while shooting well over 50 percent. Enough hasn’t been said about it this week King James is averaging 40 ponints a game.
Messi inspired him ✌️
The difference between Lebron and Jordan at 38 is 8 seasons in the NBA.
Wow nice
lbj is like a machine a robot!!and thats da REAL definition of a true goat!!!in this season he will become greatest scorer of all time!!im glad to witness that moment!!!
Usually in the NBA as the star players gets older the roster they play on gets very weak & it's the same with LeBron Lakers needs better role players if I'm the Lakers I would trade Westbrook to get some better role players to go with LeBron & AD
King is MVP !!!
Westbrook carried an equally, or if not worse, roster in the wizards to the playoffs but two years ago. This team can make waves if clicking come play-in. Big If, but be some story.
Wow nice
