It's official tonight after the loss in Phoenix.

Here is how the LeBron Era looks so far in Los Angeles.

Miss playoff
Title (bubble)
1st round exit
Miss playoff

Vogel seems sure to be gone. Can LA trade Westbrook in the offseason? Who wants him?

Many questions to answer for the Lakers this summer.

At the request of many users, most Lakers related threads are going to be merged here. This is a place to heal, vent, and recover from a season-long obsession with the Lebron/Lakers/Russ trifecta. If you want to discuss the Lakers more specifically, please use the team board.

Meh.

I'm more interested in which player ends up leading the league in points per game.

People tried to say it in the pre-season. But yep here we are.

The issue right now is, by the looks of it the Lakers are stuck with the roster for next year good or bad.

The coach may get canned, but replacing that coach with Doc Rivers is just spinning the wheels if that ends up happening.

You may say they need to get rid of Westbrook, but of course this involves some team wanting to take Westbrook in the first place.

they are delusional if they think that doc rivers can turn this around

At this point is just about lebron and clutch, trade westbrook and get players that fit better what lebron does

Here comes the media ready to swoop:

"After missing playoffs again, has Lakers' investment in LeBron James and Anthony Davis been a bust?"

I already fired up the grille! :party:

In all seriousness, they deserved this. They really needed this humble pie.
