LeBron James

[K1rieIrving>AllOtherPG's]

Lakers supporting cast is better than last years Cavs scrubs but it ain't by much . . .

Are they though? Let’s see how those players play under the brightlights of the playoffs assuming they’ll even make the playoffs, at least on the Cavs you had an experienced playoff team that wasn’t afraid.

I bet even the good young players on the Lakers (which is basically only Kyle Kuzma?) will play way below their regular season averages when the pressure is on, and just imagine how bad Lonzo and Ingram will be if they’re already playing like garbage in the regular season.

A little bit side topic but my god Lonzo Ball is a terrible player, I mean absolutely fucking horrendous, if the dude wasn’t the 2nd overall pick he wouldn’t be in the rotation of any NBA team, never seen a PG being so inept on offense anybody watching him play knows he has zero trade value.

He knew what he was getting himself into, just didn't care. Lakers supporting cast is better than last years Cavs scrubs but it ain't by much . . .

Magic got duped by Lavar!!

He traded their best young CORE. In Russell and Randle. And replaced them with low IQ. Ingram is arrogant as they come. He thinks he is the man and just goes hero ball when he feels like it and looks pathetic. Lonzo is trash and I think he knows he sucks now and his confidence is at an all time LOW. Magic Johnson has single handedly destroyed the Laker organization

A friend of mine sent me this comparision in a text and i about died from laughter, so I figured I'd share it and see what kind of responses come, the few Lakers fan I know read but never responded.

Lebron-less Lakers are in straight up free fall right now...this movie looks familiar.

And this time LBJ locked himself in on a four year contract! I foresee some desparate calls coming up this summer. Come to LA and I'll get you your own HBO show where you just bullshit with your buddies! I'll even guest on it!

Bron and Trump have one thing in common...

Who can he even call lol? It’s starting to become very clear now that LeBron has earned a bad reputation around the league, it’s partly his own fault being so controlling passive aggressive or throwing teamsmates under the bus, LeGM ect.. also partly the media’s fault by making any LeBron team the center of the universe.

PG13 already chose OKC over LeBron and his home town team, it has been reported many times that Kawhi and KD want nothing to do with LeBron, KD even called LeBron toxic, which is ironic considering that snake is probably one of the most toxic people in NBA history, Klay hates LeBrons guts and will never play on his team, so who is even left?

Funny thing is the Lakers had the opportunity to get Kawhi if they traded some of their young core pieces, not surprising Magic being the idiot that he is chose not to so because he deluded himself to thinking they’re going to get some magical max player in the off season just because he got LeBron James, not going to happen at least nobody who’s high caliber.

LeBron should’ve went to the rockets and won some championships before he retired, I have no idea why he chose to go to the Lakers, It’s really hard to imagine a way that he even makes the finals again before he retires.

Who

It’s pretty evident why he chose LA. All those ESPN plus segments, his lame HBO show where he trashes Trump,Space Jam 2. Dude wants to be a movie star. He said multiple times his legacy is already set, saying he s the goat.

The lakers may not get the free agents you mentioned but me thinks Anthony David will pull a Kareem and request a trade to the Lakers.

Lonzo can't shoot. But he's a pretty smart player, and defends, rebounds, and passes well. A guy like that willalways have some value.

I actually think he's better than Ingram, who is completely "meh" at everything.

Could say the same things about Nance...stealing him from the Lakers was an underrated move, IMO, and may be the difference between them making or missing the playoffs.

Surprised this thread hasn't been swarmed with people writing about how we pantsed the Lakers at home yesterday, exposing their hideous defense and general lack of winner-ness. That's pretty fucking bad to think you have the young foundation for a championship team but they can't even beat this year's Cavs at home!

Also wondering where @GTL has gone. Yoo hoo, @GTL , we're all here and eager to talk about the "young core"! All superstars in the making!

 

[Ohio]

Poor Fakers fans.

 

[Bucketz]

Lol. Why would the Pelicans trade AD for the Lakers' scrap heap?

I guess if he demanded a trade? But wait, who sends out a franchise player just because they ask for a trade, knowing that trade would make them worse....oh shit..NVM.

He has a few years on his deal. Others will give a better offer than what LA has.

When guys were saying why trade for Kawhi when they can just sign him I thought they were insane . Didn't want to give up Ingram and Kuzma! They are cuckoo. No way Kawhi goes there I think, but maybe you would have a chance to keep him if he got to try it out. LeBron and Kawhi would be very hard to stop.

Some Laker fans on Twitter were legit saying "would you rather have Osman and Sexton over Ingram and Ball?"

I was cracking up about that. Crazy part to me is Ingram has bad Cedi numbers when he was still doing a Korver impression.

Uh, everyone? It sucks but if a player demands a trade, he will get traded eventually 9/10 times
