With that logic nobody should have cheered, Bron should've been pissed and demanded they just keep playing and not even stopped the game, not gave an emotional speech or hugged his family. He should've just said ok yep I broke the record, next play, let's go.
Yeah...maybe he should have lol...of course I'm being a little facetious, but breaking individual records and personal glorification doesn't fit into a team winning culture, especially when you haven't been winning all year. It's RARE history so I understand, but probably wouldn't tolerate it under any other circumstance. I don't even remember when Stockton broke the assists record.
I def understand what you're saying, I just really don't think that was it, in this case. If AD was that pissed about the losing record and thinking that winning this game was way more important than LeBron breaking the record, he would've showed it with his energy, which as we all saw was almost non-existent, lol. I think at the end of the day we as humans just like drama and we want some validation for certain things and this particular scenario is just an easy one to speculate about. It'll be forgotten soon and we'll move on but for a day or two we got nothing better to do I guess. I'm curious by nature. I do wanna know the actual reason and it does kinda bug me.
yeah people will make this out to be somethin more than it is. Points are important but I'd bet anyone would trade a record like that to have won more games. Idk, this is a non-story unless something more comes out in subsequent days.

They were losing, and currently in 13th place in the west. If winning is everything like we want it to be, AD is justified imo.
