Not 28/30. Closer to 14/16 because only playoff teams are in the bubble right now.

I'm just glad the Pelicans are gone so they can't show their arse. Zion is balls deep in a casserole right now.

The whole reason LeBron is doing this is because he could never on the court be as good as mike so he is hoping his politics will get him the edge in the number 1 player of all time talk.

Ali and Jim Brown being the greatest involved both of them walking away at their peak, albeit temporarily in Ali’s case, over personal beliefs.

LeBron is possibly giving up one playoff run in the twilight of his career.

Imagine Michael Jordan in a locker room with a teammate who suggests "hey let's not finish the playoffs"

The fact that this is even being allowed by the league is beyond reason. The OWNERS need to straight tell these asshats eff off and get ready for a lockout. They can squeeze these players back into to the stone-age as far as heir power.

It would be best for the league in the long run but I doh t the owners have the balls to do it.

NFL did better by focusing on team alliances for fans. The nba focused on players. There is a reason the nfl does financially better.
