    This reminds me a lot of the early Magic/Kareem tension, which I was not around for and have only read about. That was probably an even more difficult situation because Kareem was still the best player in the league when Magic showed up right out of college. I do get where LeBron is coming from. Someone in the organization needs to put him in a room with Kareem, who can explain to him the value of moving into a different role late in your career. Stay in LA, extend at a lower but still sizable contract number, and enjoy playing with Luka. Kareem being the 2nd best player on multiple championship teams in his late 30s/at age 40 was a testament to his greatness, I think it would be the same for LeBron.

    I think most on here agree, ain't no love lost. I had no true love for him like Kobe, Shaq, Pau, Fish, etc .


    Thanks for 1, but getting only 1 was a fail.

    I think I was more annoyed comparatively with Shaq’s bully and general personality / work ethic during his time here and elsewhere following …. than LeBron’s.

    Me too, but Shaq getting us three eased my irritation considerably.

    NO. By far best chances this year are with him here. Deal with it.

    :D ;)

    Well, as currently constructed, this team has zero chance to stop any of the top tier teams. We don’t have any good defenders in our starting unit.
    Rob can make a trade or two to improve this. Until he does, I don’t have much faith in this team doing anything well but score.

    I’m getting really tired of this game, but I’m also wondering who’s paying who to cause drama here, like why is Ramona reporting this of all people and not a Lakers writer




    This is true also, Jorge Sedano said this on Irwin’s pod a few days ago, so why is she putting that out there, for who?

    Winning cures all - if we’re the #3 seed again and rolling there won’t be any problems. Lebron isn’t stupid, every year left is important, he won’t just burn a year.

    As for all the vultures circling, one more trade to consolidate and add some defence and I’m happy to roll against them all.

    Never been a Lebron fan, but I’ll continue to hold my nose and root for him as long as he wears the P&G. If he’s indeed pouting, I really don’t understand why. The Lakers have acquiesced to most all of his demands like the Westbrook trade and drafting Bronny.

    i'm ready to move on too, but i'm not buying that shelburne BS. lebron can be butthurt all he wants about the luka trade, but i don't think he's that dumb to not realize that the lakers don't end when he leaves the team
