    I still don't understand why he keeps pointing fingers though. Does he think Laker fans are Cavs fans? Cavs fans only exist when Lebron is on the team. A large portion of Laker fans are the most knowledgeable fans in the world. We had Kobe Bryant for goodness sake. We know how stats can paint a different picture than the actual results (i.e. Kobe shooting poorly, yet still dominates the game from start to finish). We all see the defense you are playing. If you're still THAT hurt, why are you out there? You are not going to help us win playing defense that badly.

    With all the subs in Cleveland, Love still re-upped there when most of it was directed at him.

    Ky left to be his own man, but called Bron letting him know that a kid will do kid things and that he apologized for it and understood what Bron was trying to do.

    The media is making it sound like Bron is distancing himself from the team... whether it's the pic during the Indy game (already been discredited), to the comments he's made after the Griz game seemingly calling out his teammates (also discredited)...



    Some of you guys are just regurging this s*** up cause it makes for good theater...KD was pissed at the media for taking his words and misconstruing them. #toxic

    Bron's not gonna cry about it, but that's what's happening here.

    He's trying to trade the team?

    Half of y'all wanted to trade the farm for AD, but now those same folks are upset at Magic for f***ing up the youngn's spirit and with KlutchMafia for running shop. The only guy I know here that wanted to keep the kids at all costs is LilTikes LT. The majority of you was like f*** the kids...and now y'all pivoting thinking Bron is actively calling out the kids and f***ing em over.

    The media is trippin most of y'all up.

    The Paula trade: what was our final offer?
    Kawhi trade: what was our final offer?

    Magic stays leaky, right?

    But AD trade: we knew what our final offer was there so if not Magic, KlutchMafia must've leaked it.

    Y'all knew Bron was coming alone last summer? Did Klutch make it obvious that Bron needed so and so to sign with LA? Did we see Klutch go heavy in the news in recruiting AD and Dray? Did Klutch force the Lakers to trade any of our kids before Bron gave his verbal consent? Bron committed and the next day Jules wanted out...it wasn't the other way around. Why is Rich & Bron always covering their damn mouths when they're talking in public?

    KlutchMafia stays leaky, right?

    The media saying that our team and youngns are shook, yet Boston and their youngns are getting a pass for losing to the Bulls, knowing that the deadline is over and now they're on the clock for an AD trade this summer.

    Come on man...I'm a Laker fan worried about our current predicament, but some of y'all have a really warped forecast.

    I know we briefly had this discussion, so I'm gonna tag LFR in for more context.





    And like I said... good defensive teams like the Bucks, do this all the time. They allow the 3 from low percentage shooters.

    Honestly, I don't think this team huddles are any useful.

    When you kind of know that its your time to take over, I would prefer to have a silent moment to re-focus. I hear all these coaches say "keep running, keep spacing, keep playing D bla bla bla"...like the players don't know it.

    Do you guys ever compare you’re reactions to Lebron’s wild shots vs how you reacted to Kobe’s?

    I’m usually, “WTF was that Lebr...oh. Okay.” Most times, he’ll make em. Just really unbelievable shots.

    With Kobe, it really wasn’t surprising, more just hoping and knowing Kobe practices those type of shots.

    Thats true. The reason is Kobe took a lot of wild shots and LeBron almost never takes a wild shot.

    Kobe's style is both, way more entertaining (when he got hot) and way more frustrating (when he got cold). But at the end of the day LeBron's boring style has a much higher efficiency. LeBron pretty much never has 4-20 or a 7-25 game. Kobe has a lot of those but at the same time Kobe also had a lot of 18-30 or 22-39 games that leBron doesn't.

    I think the only reason he said he was impressed with BI and Kuz is because he realized his blaming others act isn't going to fly with our fan base. In Cleveland, he is essentially Jesus. Whatever he says is written down in the Book of Lebron in red letters. If he tried pulling the "Be a professional. You can't let trade talk get to you." card In Cleveland, it probably works because the local Hallmark stores take his dumps and bronze them for Christmas tree ornaments. But In LA, you haven't done anything. And the guys who were at the center of the trade talks are playing their butts off. Heck, one of them (Ingram) might be playing better now than he ever did in his career.

    The media isn't actually saying that about our kids. Lot's of Lebron supporters are actually calling him out on his defense and saying our kids are playing great (the truth). I do not have a problem with players calling out other players. Kobe used to do it all the time. But Kobe was always giving it everything he had, and his criticisms were usually accurate. I do have a problem when Lebron passive aggressively points the finger at people who are actually playing very well because it's a narrative that might fly if you don't do any digging.

    First off, Kob's always going to be seen under a different scope than LABron = 5 rings to none in a Laker fit...of course we're all going to have a longer leash with Kob, cause dude earned it. I'm never going to dispute a who's a better Laker between Bron vs Kobe debate...that's silly and flawed.

    Why you think I got such a problem with 5time Laker title winner and fellow LakerLifer, Magic Johnson getting such a short leash with some of you guys...it's absolutely a flawed outlook, cause yall haven't given it the appropriate time. That too is silly and flawed.... especially since some of y'all been against it from the jump (like Bron). Give it a chance... that seems reasonable enough and not overtly optimistic as you like to call it.

    Bron's passive aggressive...true. But like I said before, he's been ridiculously complimentary of the youngns. You knock me for being a conspiracy nut, yet your logic is he's backtracking off his real intentions (knocking the kids) because he's afraid of our fanbase. Bro, that's one hell of a conspiracy theory. Wanna borrow my hat?

    Bron came here without any fanfare...any press conference to glorify his signing...any mandate to blow it all to hell so that he would come....youngns still here...Luke still here....Bron's still and will be here ie 4 yr deal.

    Bron likes to partner up...that's a fact, not a conspiracy. When AD signed to Klutch, I was encouraged by @JohnnyComeLately2k6 (btw where's my guy been lately?) to start a #LAD thread and again that was a theory, but to most of you it was nuts. Then he demands a trade during a time where Boston couldn't bid and his most realistic destinations was between LA and Boston...TinFoilnRealized. I may have optimistic overtones, but that's cause I'm giving this a chance to succeed.

    Meanwhile, you seem to be down as ever and now Klutch is running the Lakers... that's another conspiracy theory you've been championing of late.

    When AD's trade demand first came out, you and nearly the majority had the entire roster going the other way for him. Noone was really against it. Bron wants to play with AD and now the narrative is we got to look out for the kid's psyche. That wasn't Klutch that leaked our package...these guys...with the mafiosa mumble...

    [​IMG]

    ...leaked our package knowing our discussions with Nawlins was going along in bad faith? Does that really benefit Klutch in any way at all?

    The media made it seem like Bron broke the team and y'all in the anti-Bron camp ate that s*** up. Yet, most of us were willing to give up the farm for a guy that is definitely top 5 in the league right now (although distractions have him in a down year). Meanwhile, Boston was angling to get into the sweepstakes and even tho they've been struggling too this year, none of their youth was labeled as shook knowing they just in a waiting pattern till the summer hits. Ainge, ain't f***ing with their feelings?

    Media is having some of y'all feel a certain way...and I think that's obvious with the weird anti-Laker sentiment here of late. Again, that's my conspiracy theory, and I'm sticking to it.

    But there are others across the hall spitting their own tinfoil'n theories...yet, y'all think I'm the only one doing it. Maybe y'all should join Bron in looking at yourselves in the mirror before finger pointing.

    I'm not saying Magic or Klutch leaked the package. But once the Pelicans asked for something, leaked what they asked for, then asked for more (this happened multiple times throughout the negotiations), Magic should have known he needs to back away since he's getting played. As for Klutch running the Lakers, it's not really even a conspiracy. Lebron and his crew have done this everywhere we go. The Cavs have Klutch clients Thompson and JR Smith on their payroll at numbers that are almost criminal. We signed 6'5" KCP to ANOTHER large contract when we had 6'5" Hart, and we signed 6'5" Stephenson. Kicker is we don't even start any of those 3 at shooting guard. We start Ingram. KCP was a Klutch signing. Maybe "Klutch runs the Lakers" is a tad too strong of language, but they definitely are partners and "influencing" decisions that hurt the team. Brook Lopez signed for 3.4 million with the Bucks. We had three guys (Stephenson, Beasley, KCP) on our payroll making more than Brook. I know you admit that not holding onto Brook was a mistake, but it still points to Klutch's ability to influence our front office to where we're more ready to give a complete scrub like KCP 4 times the amount Brook ended up signing for. And Brook wanted to be here.

    The push for AD didn't break the kid's psyche. They are playing better now than before this crap started. But Lebron was playing that narrative until he realized people had video of him standing in one spot for multiple defensive sequences and realized people actually see Ingram and Kuzma playing better than ever. How is this a conspiracy theory? He calls out players for being unable to push through distractions. People in the media (even the ones that typically stand downwind from him just to smell one of his farts) and fans kill him for it. He then comes out the next day and is complimentary of the kids. Those are facts. Not conspiracy. That was the sequence of documented events. Lebron talks about kids playing bad due to distractions >>> Media and fans point out he isn't playing any defense and the kids are playing even better than they were before >>> Lebron talks about how good the kids are playing. How is that a conspiracy?
