LABron James Discussion: Olympics MVP

Freight train was rolling last night









Made a real point to get out and run to punish them (except for the couple times he stopped to complain about no calls)

 

An easy low minute game against Detroit too. Lakers don't have a good enough record to drop winnable games like Utah.

Sucks he's old

 

We’re winning this without him. Hell we beat Boston pre-Spencer D without both him and AD.

 

It's not so much the minutes apparently. It's the game day preparation that goes into playing that's the challenging part.

 

might be better without him

kind of wondering what that GS offer looked like tbh

not that I'd take it, but still curious....

 

should've sat last night. AD alone would've been more than enough to beat detroit

really can't afford to be dropping winnable games

 

It's post deadline. The gang is playing loose and free, up to their talents since Ham got a glimpse of a clue with the starting lineup and rotations .... and hasn't quite yet figured out how to make it ALL way too hard again and f*** it up.

Why would we lose to Utah when we beat the C-bags without Bron or AD .... pre Spencer Dinwiddie .... and under the worst tension and uncertainty in the locker room?

C'mon NUT UP!!

 

"Where's the what"?

 

where's the win?

if he joins steph, steph gets the glory if they get another ring. if you think this doesn't matter to lebron, i've got a bridge to sell you.

if i were rob, i would have hung up and called curry's agent and said: looks like your boy's in panic mode, i'll trade all non-lebron/AD assets for him. let me know. *click*

 

New York not an option as of now.

Lakers have no intention of trading him, he wants to stay, and the Bronny of it all

We could add a 3rd star and Bron would like that

 

Again, I will be shocked if he doesn’t retire a Laker.

Also, I hope everyone has embraced the reality that we will end up with Bronny too. Lol

 

And probably Trae. Rich also mentioned that Jeanie has been a great "partner".

LBJ loves this stuff. He has no intention of leaving & Bronny is likely coming. Out of the multiple colleges he could have selected, he opted to stay close to home.

Mind you where else can Bron finish a game and go across town to watch his son. Logistically, it fits just perfectly, doesn't it? You know what else fits? Them pairing up together in a Lakers uniform being close to home.

I do think we need to start planning a life without LBJ, but I'll deal with it if it brings us a star back. Lol.

 

Helpful for them old legs.

 

i didn't realize we had the grizzlies or wizards 2nd round pick this year. that's going to be a good one.

bronny's not currently on any draft boards that i see, so i feel like if we want him, the clippers pick (or a purchased 2nd) will be enough to make it happen.

interestingly, philly has several 2nds this year, all just before where ours are projected, so i could see morey getting cute there.

 

It'll be interesting to watch Klutch work the draft. If he declares and isn't taken as a chip to lure Bron away, he's currently a late 2nd- undrafted caliber. Will they go the route of Austin's agency and tell teams not to take him? An undrafted deal will be more beneficial to him. If he's not quite ready, I could see declaring this year more prudent that next because he will be in the position to pick his spot. Money doesn't matter. Family has more than enough and he already has commercials and will get a slew of endorsements day 1 because of the name on the back of the jersey. But this year he would have much more power than next.

 

yeah, i was just wondering if maybe there was some desire to actually be drafted. but i suppose if it's not in the first round (i can't see anyone burning a 1st for this), does it matter? i'm sure the lakers would offer him a two-way or even a full roster spot as an udfa to placate lebron.
