    CARRY ON !!

  5. ThisAnswerIsLit

    Russ: 24 points on barely over 50% shooting, 0-3 from three and another ill timed technical

    Russ stans: Russ was cooking!

  6. Quantumsystem00

    Pat bev was the next leading scorer in the starting lineup after lebron at 11 points,get a big who can play even below average defense because this is really bad.Starting guards that are inept offensively and no rim protection is a very bad combo that will put you into holes early and bury against the better teams,props to wenyen though.

  7. Chinaski14

    Nice win. Lebron looks winded. Get that man some help.

  8. meengine

    Shit’s almost felt like a loss lmao but we’ll take it, ~~let’s get greedy~~ keep having fun đŸ˜€

  9. MagicalOak

    KING JAMES (526 GAMES WITH 30+ POINTS 🐐 ) UPVOTE PARTY (48 PTS (SEASON-HIGH), 8 REBS, 9 ASTS)!

  10. HighlyBaked0

    Defense is a myth and Lebron is good at basketball

  11. ItsGettinBreesy

    48 points from bron to barely beat a team that’s on a 10 game losing streak. Yikes

  12. I’m pissed that Lebron had to play 36 minutes and score 48 points to win against the worst team in NBA. At least we won I guess

  13. JMobRichie

    Good win on MLK day, this was much needed. A win is a win

  14. gentyent

    Me: Happy about a sick Lebron performance

    Also Me: Sad that it was necessary to beat the Rockets

  15. acentipedesboner

    For all the talk about role players not stepping up, having only 2 TO’s as a team is damn impressive. Sometimes all you need to do to be a successful NBA player is to not fuck up.

  16. This coaching staff is not getting it done… smh

  17. Hythrdmonsitsmeyaboi

  18. Snifflymoth416

    Man we are so lucky we went up against the worst team in the NBA . Any other decent team against our performance tonight would be a blowout straight up

  19. TorontoRaptors34

    Refs really robbed this team of a 3 game winning streak.

  20. BruisedBee

    A 38 year old should not be _this_ good _this_ regularly. It’s bloody ridiculous.

  21. TEDPED24

    Lebron bitches about the refs, gets 12 FTs and a season high. Fuck you refs.

  22. Aggravating_Pea3882

    Trudell is wild for interviewing wenyen and telling him “Wenyen you and Lebron combined for 62 tonight” 😂😂😂 even Gabriel laughed lol

  23. KellyOubresLover

    Needed 48 from a 40 year old to beat the worst team in the league that came into the game on a 9 game losing streak?

    ANOTHER late game collapse?

    Darvin Ham is horrible. So fucking horrible. But not as bad as Jeanie or Rob. Worst owner in the league by a country mile. Fuck you.

  24. CaCHooKaMan

    lebron had to score nearly 50 just to barely beat the worst team in the league. we’re an embarrassment.

  25. Chriscustomkicks

    Good win but Thomas Bryant gets owned by sengun while myles Turner is dropping 30 with elite defense (sigh) damn you rob.

  26. unmaskedsteve

    Bron needs help. He can’t keep doing this shit man

  27. Rapa_Nui

    Ham is a man of his words, gotta give him that.

    He is going to ride LeBron til the end.

  28. Soulmuzik22

    Very surprised with the 2 TOs only(franchise record I think). Needing 48 pts from LeBron to beat the Rockets says a lot about our roster. I’ll take the win tho.

  29. Vostok1303

    Franchise record two turnovers plus LeBron feeling it, equals a much needed W.

  30. Front_Set9348

    westbrick better be prepared to give lebron a massage for carrying and saving his useless ass

  31. KingC11_

    Still remember some fans saying the lakers are actually better without Lebron
