We weren't winning crap without Lebron being the guy either way. AD isn't good enough to be the lead on a team.

He cant do it anymore. Also our coach sucks.

I like this team though heading into next season minus DLO and Ham hopefully.

people talking about Lebron's legacy this and that. Dude is damn near 40 he ain't got **** to prove anymore.

Agreed. Was never going to get to that #1 spot but second place ain’t half bad and that will remain his legacy, even if he misses the playoffs in his final 3-4 years.

Yeh Lebron might not be a superstar anymore, he's just too old and too injured. Agreed this doesnt alter his legacy at all. On the upside Rui pick up was great and Reaves is a weapon.

But come on, I didn't even expect it would be this quick.

No more talking needed:

LeBron > Michael

The results of this series are immaterial

Got to love all the Laker fan smack talk about Jokic at half. He ate your boys breakfast, lunch, dinner, and midnight snack in that fourth. Just call him Fat Daddy Cane, kay?

The Lakers are a legitimately great defensive team. Denver has made hero shots all series (not shade) and the Lakers have missed many of their open looks and rim attempts (not an excuse). Denver has simply outplayed the Lakers.

That said, lets chill on the dynasty talk.

His foot is toast.

I'd seriously sit him. We're not coming back this series. Get healthy. Get most of the guys back.

Somehow miraculously get HAm off this team and get Nurse.

Better seeding next year and healthy i like our chances.

How many coaches can there be before people realize James is old and its not the coach.

It’s going to move from the LBJ/Curry era to the Jokic/Giannis era ——- unless Jimmy upsets the apple cart

Joker showed up huge in the 4th. That's what an MVP does. He didn't have a good first 3 quarters. Showed up huge in the 4th and took Denver home with a commanding 3-0 lead!

Warriors would've gotten cooked just as bad, that whole bracket of the West was a joke

What about the East??? You got the #8 seed beating the #1 seed in 5 games and the #2 is down 2-0 to that same team. At least the #1 seed in the West is playing like the #1 seed.

He’s clearly hurt but sitting out would be a bad look so I think he gives it a go and if things aren’t going well early he looks to land badly sometime in the 2nd quarter.

Great D by Jokic in the fourth. LA got nothing at the rim in the half court and he was on an island with LeBron plenty of possessions.

GOAT talks over. Lebron is a top 10'er. Thats it. Hes not GOAT quality
