Which sucks since he won't be able to fulfill his not 6, not 7, finals losses prediction way back when.

They get Kawhi, and ill officially be picking them as favorites right up there with the Warriors. What a sick combo it would be

Also, they need to be dialing up JJ reddick and nab him IMMEDIATELY

Ball
Ingram
Lebron
Kuzma
Randle

There needs to be some major signings happening. That is a very bad lineup.

yeah. They have a few options since PG didn't take the money.

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?

young players get better in their 3rd and 4th years. It's not all Lebron.

Spurs are gonna ship Kawhi off to Philly if they do trade him at all.

He's going to wear #6, book it.

He just might pick another number entirely, just to keep the numbers unique to the teams he's been on. #6 Bron still the most dominant tho.

Yes and yes. They could easily sign Cousins/Capela and still be able to trade for Leonard. So LeBron is going to play PF. Who's on the chopping block now?

I really don't get this move basketball wise. Why go to a stronger conference with a weaker roster? If you go to Philly then you're in a weaker conference with a much better roster. Something else has to be in the works that LeBron knows about because I just can't bring myself to believe that he's thrown in the towel in terms of winning and just signed with the Lakers for off the court reasons.

Ingram and Ball missed a combined 53 games. Ball and Kuzma were rookies.

Now they are all a year older and with Lebron. 20 game improvement is optimistic but not crazy.

Why does Lebron hold the Cavs hostage for years with his stupid 1+1 contracts, but when he leaves them he signs for 4 years? And national fans keep wanting to blame Gilbert and the Cavs front office. Much easier to develop a team if you have 4 years committed from your star player.

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

he didnt go to win titles. he knows that. we know that.

he should be able to get the lakers back to the playoffs though.

Carlos_Danger wrote: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.

Probably wanted stability while his kid enters high school

Its 3am around here and I'm like "I should check realgm to see if there's anything new...."
Anyways congrats Lakers, this could be the first piece in a much bigger puzzle.
