I think he'd be a pretty good coach, but goddammit, Lebron has to stop with this shit. I was a Laker fan since Kobe's rookie year, but I've been on the record as suspending my fandom as long as Lebron is on that team. The bullshit just doesn't stop with him.
Ant's ascendance has been super fun to watch and has really galvanized the entire team to the point that even Gobert has bought in.
I think it's been really interesting to watch this next generation of star players. Outside of Brunson on the Knicks, none of them are in traditionally big markets, and they've all been built through traditional means and not star-stacking that has been the hallmark of the last generation. In case you're wondering, I consider Luka and Tatum to be in the last generation of stars, not the current one. Feel free to disagree with me, but I feel like they're just a hair too old.
