    He did not pop them, he stretched them a little.

    If we hadn’t blown some super easy games this season we could be 2nd in the West after the Warriors win. Possibly even 1st considering we blew like 5-6 wins with free throws and bad lineups and we’re only 4 losses behind Denver. Such a shame.

    You can’t stretch or pop what you don’t have.

    Don't know how long we'll be playing without Bron but we're not winning more than 3 games without him. Unless BI and Zo suddenly wake up and surprise the s*** out of me.

    I disagree with this perspective wholeheartedly. Our roster is better than you think, but because LeBron is as ball dominant as he is, everyone has adjusted their game downwards.

    It might take a couple of games to adjust, but I think we actually have a pretty decent roster of talent if we play together.

    He has only played 82 games once in his career, and I don’t expect it to happen again while he is a Laker. The guys need to adjust to playing without him because they will be doing it for 10 to 20 games a year.

    You're right, i forgot... we were killing it the past few seasons ;) Don't let the MCG's, Lance's or Rondo's play fool you (i love this guys and what they bring) but without Bron, we're not a PO team. Simple as that.

    I don’t think multi million dollar decisions are made based on one game during the season good or bad.

    I think it takes longer than that to adjust to a missing star player no matter who it is, but even longer for a missing star who is ball dominant.

    I should clarify and say basketball dominant.

    Isn't Ball against Sac? Read it around here. Hope it doesn't escalate into a few games afterwards...

    Not actual news, Ball is playing, that was just the typical Lonzo hate around here. It’s compounded now by all these people lamenting they wanted Fox instead of Ball on draft day, when in reality that’s false and all hindsight, and only like 2 actual people here wanted Fox on draft day.
