    Hate to agree with Stephen A, but yeah, Lakers fans don’t bow down to you for just showing up and putting on the uniform, you’ve got to win something in your time here

    He should have been out for 6 months but came back early but now won’t be shut down to fully heal? Yeah not buying it.

    He’s probably still playing to at least match the win total from last year. Can’t have that narrative around him if we win even less games this year.

    No, I've been convinced by those that worship the ground LeBron walks on because of his STATS that when you are the greatest in the history of the game you don't resort to trivial s*** like that in order to feel secure.

    we rarely disagree, but i do here. i think the narrative is SO important that he's willing to risk further injury (also, he's not playing on defense...at all). the narrative is that he'll stick it out in tough times--it's repairing his career-long pattern of shrinking from adversity, as was coming to la in the first place, tbh.

    i think he probably should have been out longer and probably shouldn't be playing now.

    at least it's how i sleep. otherwise, nash.

    If you think back, Rich Paul had some quotes about LeBron returning that seemed strange and an overreaction at the time. Looking back, I think LeBron wasn’t ready. Part of it is what @abeer3 just paid out.

    The other is that we still had legit playoff hopes at the time. I think he, like many, figured he could come back, play through some discomfort and get us back in the 7th or 8th seed. Instead, the bottom fell out on every level for reasons i don’t even feel like rehashing and here we are.

    Dude. Listen to yourself. Have you been watching the games?? Have you watched him all year, especially on defense even before he got hurt? There's something weird about your name here with LakerClipperfan and your posts today with the "marginalization" of Kobe who you would have watched play all these years, like us, if you were truly a Laker fan as long as you say .... and instead this unfettered worship of James. I mean WTF? Over?

    Being data mined like everyone else, this Plaschke video popped up just now when I was googling trying to find a solution to a problem with Final Cut X.

    Our lord and saviour King James. And of course we all love Bill Plaschke.

    Let's hope it doesn't have long-term implications...(coming back too early).

    Yeah, I have attended many Lakers games since we acquired #LABron. How about you? Been to any games this season? It's so awesome to see all the Bron jerseys in the stands, the excitement that our fanbase has for Bron's future as a Laker great.
