Nearly every single roster in the NBA has been decimated due to health and safety protocols, but for whatever reason, LeBron James decided to single out the Warriors during his postgame press conference on Saturday night.
After losing to the Nets on Christmas day, LeBron talked about the Lakers struggling because they have players out while claiming the top two seeds in the west; the Golden State Warriors and the Phoenix Suns didn’t have any guys sitting out.
LeBron was obviously dead wrong, considering half the Warriors roster was out when they beat Phoenix on Saturday.
“Nobody’s gonna feel sorry for our record,” “Nobody’s gonna for sorry for guys. Everybody, besides Golden State and Phoenix, everybody has guys out.”

Warriors players OUT as of right now: Jordan Poole, Andrew Wiggins, Draymond Green, Damion Lee, Moses Moody, Andre Iguodala, Klay Thompson, James Wiseman.
LeBron James said yesterday that the Warriors were one of the only teams to have all of their players available.

Warriors fans were beside themselves when the team has been without star Klay Thompson and former first-round pick James Wiseman for the entire season.

I don’t blame Lebron for making stuff up at this point.
He should just continue saying the most absurd things to see how far he can take it before someone in the media has the guts to challenge him with a follow-up question. https://t.co/uq7zNcJR4V
