    He has more Playoffs and Finals records than that, but let's not bring "those" up.

    But truly a remarkable career. He may be putting some records out of reach for a very LONG time if he has a couple more good runs in him. Especially that turnover record. Damn!

    and we only care what you've done lately

    If he sucks next year, he'll hear from the fans about it

    Now we need LAbron to come out and say that Laker Nation wants more than one ring :)

    What would it take for LeBron to get his jersey hung at the rafter? He started so late and it's the toughest franchise because the requirements are so high. Thoughts?

    2 titles for sure. 1 might do it but I don't know.

    1 title plus saving the franchise and setting us up for Anthony Davis's prime going forward / making us a destination again. I'm good with it going up just one title.

    It's good enough if he wins the title now as far as I'm concerned. But two titles for sure.

    100% 2 titles would get him up there. Really hard to come up with an argument against 1 and getting us back to relevance.

    Just win this title and he is an auto-lock for the rafters. Wilt is up there and he was the second best player on ONE Laker championship team. Heck, he wins Friday and he can have a statue out front as far as I'm concerned.

    If Lebron gets 3, he might get a statue.

    If Pelinka gets the Lakers a 3rd star next season, he's getting two as long has he doesn't have a major injury. Even if his play drops a peg, he will facilitate enough with AD likely covering the lost peg with his own assent into his prime-prime.

    Deep down I want multiple titles from him, but knowing the NBA is 30-strong now, 1 could probably be enough.

    Bron will be no short of inspiration next year if the Warriors or Nets are in the mix.

    And as Isiah turned back to look at Michael Jordan, Zeke turned into a pillar of salt. Salty, salty salt.

    Minimum 2 titles, but it should be 3.

    Also 3-0 in Finals games with a chance to win.

    IF we get a 3rd star that allows LbJ to chill during regular season he has a chance for 3/statue.
    1 should be enough for rafters in my book. As long as Pau also gets there.
