LeBron James Discussion: Not Returning To The Lakers

just means he's good at teaming up with other stars

 

A look at his in game resting (from O'Connor's video in the optimism thread)

 

Getting offensive weapons this off season was so important and we did exactly that. Our offense last season relied on Lebron so much.

 

DNP OLD
DNP SOFT

 

No sweat we have the Eagle back.

:Carusohearthands:

 

36 years old, and here are some projections



he's averaging about 23 so far this year, but at a pace of 20 PPG, he's 198 games away from passing Kareem for the All Time scoring Record. If he stays healthy, my favorite player of all time just might pull it off.

 

Bron atop of the early MVP ladder

 

d****** shot. And too much ISO

 

Strong 3rd and an overall good game, but WTF was that shot? That was the definition of a pre season shot.

 

I think he ran out of gas. He's old and i'ts a back to back.
He was amazing in the 3rd but then you could see he started bricking even layups

 

AD should be the one playing back to back games , not Bron ...

 

AD is the one in his prime and 27. Lebron plays like he is still trying to win enough games to make the playoffs. He has changed since he came to LA. I wonder if Kobe or someone over there told him, if you want LA to embrace you, you can't pull that load management horse**** here.

 

I would really like if LeBron took playing off-ball more seriously. Him standing around not doing anything when he doesn't have the ball is not helping his teammates. I don't like how Schroder+Kuzma are there and LeBron just holds onto the ball for 18 seconds and then passes it to them expecting a miracle. He's gotta get the ball out sooner than that. Not a fan of his ISO games... I think the Lakers have too many options for him to rely on ISO at times. Montrezl has been getting wide open for bounce passes but LeBron would look him off. I get that he's the best player in the world but he wanted more teammates who can carry the scoring load so he's gotta give them a chance as well.

 

Have not seen the Warriors LED walls. Are they like in the Bubble with whole one side of of court and both end zones?

I just know from being around them at shows that it's labor intensive putting them up, testing and calibrating, and running from truck and striking ..... plus expensive as hell. And with multi-staging events that process repeated frequently probably way too expensive with no live gate revenue.

I actually like the look the Lakers have created, all things considered, with the big graphics imbued blackout seat coverings and the colored spots moving on the perimeter at times. Beautiful treatment compared to some arenas.
