    You guys must not have seen Kareem. Most unstoppable weapon. Magic can manipulate a game like no other. It's Kareem then Magic then everyone else.

    Kareem won finals MVP against the evil empire and their hall of fame frontline in 1985 at age 37. Kareem is the G.O.A.T.

    Who exactly did I hate on? Its not hate to have Kobe in the 8-12 range. Other people are free to rank him higher but its not some crazy unusual take to have him around the end of the top 10.

    So anyway....

    On the plus side, Lebrons finding his groove and putting up big numbers without having to play huge minutes.

    On the negative side (for some), I am already starting to wish he had a true running mate. One of our kids needs to emerge or they might all be in new jerseys when teams start really wheeling and dealing around the trade deadline.

    I'm happy he's a Laker. That's all.

    Let's ask Anon what we should say.

    :Kobe Snickering:

    but some white dude named Rick Barry had more 50 pt games than Lebron, so nothing about being the GOAT.

    I’m starting to shift to the side that believes we can’t waste what LeBron has left. If Ball and Ingram don’t want to be a part of winning and are comfortable making zero strides forward, they can be moved. Unfortunately I can see teams wanting Hart and Kuz instead because of how bad Zo and BI have looked.

    Not even in the same league haha. Nothing to do with him being white either, but that guy could score. Lebron passed him on the all time list what, years ago?

    I continue to believe there will be another trade for a proven consistent vet or two. The young players are all over the map. If they can’t figure it out, they are for sure gone.

    I agree here. If we could somehow flip Ball/Ingram for a proven player while keeping Hart and Kuzma, the team would suddenly get a completely new dimension and I feel no years of Bron's contract would be wasted. The guy has a lot left in the tank. Heck, if we just had a scoring/shooting point guard we'd be 30% better just from that upgrade. Zo is talented and smart, but he has no offensive game at all. I understand if he can't shoot, but he does not have the scoring mentality at all. He is tall, fast, athletic, yet he does not penetrate either. Ingram, on the other hand, is just lost in his role. He is not sure what to do and when, dribbles too much, and does not have the strength to force his way into the paint and shoot the ball.
