I hate that LeBron left the Cavs again.

It may not take the lakers long to contend now, though. Sign Capela to a max and hope houston can't afford to match, then trade for Kawhi.

Signin 4 years contract with still no other stars committed, huge respect for Lebron.
As a Kobe and a LA fan I think we moved way passed the hate for LBJ, like 3 or 4 years.

The Lakers having better odds than the Rockets is hilarious

Okay, Lakers fixed themselves, so please for the love, find a way to fix the damn Knicks. Maybe wrong thread for this rant, but I see so many more years of pain for some of the best fans in the world.


Definitely. LeBron can do this on his own. Why even sign anyone else?

Nobody is beating the Warriors unless KD and Curry tear their ACLs. Too good of a system, and too many stars. So we have to enjoy the drama, but we know the inevitable will happen. This isn't the NFL or MLB. It's so predictable, now more than ever. If Kawhi and PG both go there, there is still no chance. 2nd seed at best. It will be cool if I'm wrong though, and LeBron pulls off another season for the ages. I just don't see it. Your body gives out at some point. And the mileage on that body is unreal. Even for a freak like him.

I can see Love being shipped out to Utah or Charlotte(?)

Can see Houston going after Jr or Korver to add more shooting.

Lebron won't be the best player in the league in 4 years either. He's turning 34 this year.

Lebron has two years MAX of Supernova mode left in him. He won't drop off badly but he won't be the runaway best player in the league anymore. Prob still top 10 but that's about it.



I think that's relatively accurate. That's why it was so important to go to the Lakers where they had cap room and young tradeable assets and a franchise guys will be lining up to play for.

Lebron is still good enough to go SuperNova and win a series virtually by himself. But he can't do it all regular season long, through 3 playoff series, and then take down a HOU/GSW superteam... this was a self preservation move.

Great start for Lake Show... but not close to a WCF contender, let alone a Finalist contender, and dead from a title contender.

Sorry Media, but the Lakers will have to be more dangerous and precise as a group to match up with Golden State and Boston.

But overrate them as you will, and desperately cover them to make them seem greater than they actually are.

Ball
Ingram
LeBron
Kuzma

Not going to make people look twice.
