Lebron makes empty threats after McRoberts Elbow

If this was the 1980s, I'd come up swinging. But this is not the '80s. I can't do that. ... I've got to keep my composure. I get frustrated at times, but I understand how much I mean to this team.

If this was the 80's and Lebron came up swinging he wouldn't of gotten back up.

 

Wouldn't be surprised to see a brawl in game three.

He wouldn't have survived 80s basketball. That one foul damn near killed him. He also would not have been a very good player in the 80s because he would have needed a mid range jumper to be effective as driving the lane would have resulted in him getting crushed 10 times worse than what mcroberts did to him.

In the 80s they didn't call fouls when someone breathed on an offensive player as he drove to the basket.

Its just so ridiculous how  Lebron's comments are like hes so tough and what not. This is the same guy that layed on the ground holding his throat and no one even cared because everyone just assumed he was over exaggerating as he always does. He took a shot it was a decent one but nothing super flagrant as its being made out to be. If he ever "came up swinging" there is plenty of guys that would love to take a shot on him for real in "self defense" and knock that hairline back a few more inches.

    • I know it's only been training camp and one preseason game, but I think T-Mac has already shown his floor to be exactly what I said about him in the pre-draft process. That his floor if he never improves his game, is as one of the best #2 WRs in the NFL, if not even still a low end #1 (i.e. a 25th-ish best WR in the league). I think it's safe to say he's already established himself as our #1, and there are only a small handful of teams in the league where I don't think he'd be their starting #2 WR in Week 1. Bengals (Higgins), Dolphins (Waddle), Eagles (Smith), Bucs (Godwin if healthy), Rams (Adams) are really the only teams where I think he'd be the #3 as a rookie in Week 1.  A few others like the Lions (Williams), Bears (Odunze), Seahawks (Kupp), Commanders (Deebo), where he'd be the 2b to start the season, just because they're vets and/or already have a year or two of experience with their team/QB. And even having said that, I think by year 2, he's better than every one of those players (And no, I'm not saying he's already going to be better than a prime version of Adams, just whatever he'll be at 33 next year), and same goes for Kupp, but that's more because it seems like his body might be quitting on him in a way that hasn't happened to Adams (yet).
    • Well to be fair, Horn not practicing right now to let his stitches heal up from a car accident isn't something that should be concerning.  Sure, you don't want him missing practice leading into the season, but it's one that once healed, won't have lingering affects or fear of re-injuring it, it was just bad luck.
    • Quality backups are absolutely important. This franchise has been plagued with depth problems. That said, there is a little bit of dismay that Mays can't beat out a 1-legged man, and all the talk going into the off-season was how BC would certainly be gone since he had position versatility.  In the end, it doesn't matter too awfully much, as I would be shocked to no end if Corbett makes it through the season. We know what we have in reserve, and that should surely be better than trying to sign random fat guys mid season to try and take over.
