Him and Kawhi are not taking down the Warriors or the Rockets for that matter


in the 3rd or 4th year... definitely not next year.

How does anyone know if Kawhi can even stay healthy? His track record the last 2 seasons says otherwise

I hope he can though. I don't like too see players careers cut short by injuries

Gonna be super fun to watch and he’ll definitely make some of their overrated young guys a LOT better. Especially guys like Ingram (who’s super thin still) and can stand to get in the weight room with Lebron

I can’t see them beating Houston or Golden state but i doubt LA is done making moves

Do the Lakers have the capspace to sign Capela or Cousins? If they do, I'm guessing they do it, then make the move for Kawhi.

its all geography. has nothing to do with their front office, coaching, scouts, or the team they have built. the true MVP is whoever moved the team to LA many years ago. magic did nothing.


Its incredible, how in just one hour, the SALT on this board flipped from Laker fans to NBA fans.

I LOVE IT.


its not salt. its facts.

but it is nice to have the geographical advantage. makes up for the team they have built through the draft recently.

Wow. They got him to commit to 4 years instead of 1+1, AND before they even made a single other roster move?

Pretty obvious that he was ready to ride off into the LA sunset no matter what.

Ball
Ingram
Lebron
Kuzma
Randle

That's a 55 win team. Throw in DMC and it's a WCF+ team.


the lakers won 35 games last year. lebron adds 20 wins?


Along with improvement from the young guys, absolutely.

Sadly this. I've been saying it all along and I'm sticking to it. They have got work to do to compete with GS and HOU and I don't see a clear path unless they completely swindle the Spurs for Kawhi. They are now in win now mode so the clock is ticking.


I have faith in Magic, he isn't gunna sign LeBron without putting together a competitive supporting cast. I expect him to sign Cousins and offload some capspace and wing depth and do the Ingram/Deng for DeMar deal.

They haven’t even been aggressive in trade talks with the spurs

Guess after losing all those Finals he decided it was better to just not even make the playoffs

I mean not like that finals record is really that fixable for him anyway

Congrats Laker fans tho!
I hate both LeBron and the Lakers, but what are you talking about??? The Lakers have a lot of solid young talent, plus I guarantee another big name free agent will sign there, don't be surprised if it's DeMarcus.

Love it. Hurts the Rockets a little but man it adds some much needed excitement to the league this year. Creates an instant 3rd contender.

I loathed watching those Cleveland teams... so im glad i get to enjoy watching bron again. i was just so tired of those horrendous teammates

He's right though lol its all about location


move the lakers team, front office, players, everything...move them to kansas city or nashville or cincinnati.

does lebron still sign? does he even consider them?

no? really? oh! would have never guessed.

lebron went because of LA. not the lakers.
