If by some miracle BI stays, I want him to work with Kobe. I’ve said this before in the past but throughout this bullshyt I’ve seen something special in this kid. It takes a lot to just shut the fukk up and ball in the midst of all these distractions at barely 21. That takes a good amount of mental fortitude that should be fully cultivated. Instead of begging like a hoe to these free agents we need to get our guys to that superstar level.

This is what has sucked so much. When we were in the tank wars we accepted as a fan base that we need to build a team like everyone else. DLo, Clarkson, Nance, and Randle played with Kobe. At least two of them should’ve been around to bridge the gap and bring continuity to the locker room. Instead this shyt has become some transient ass shyt and rather than players coming in and earning their keep as Lakers we’re begging every and anybody to bring us back to prominence rather than working with the guys we’ve had that wanted to be here.

Smh, I wanted us to compete against this Warriors team ASAP so I was for the Bron signing. But looking back, I wish we had just let the kids grow up. All of them. The team was so much more fun back then. You saw that group hug the kids had with Kobe in his last game and it had you thinking those kids would carry things forward. Fun IG beefs, just all the good shyt we were putting together could’ve been special. If a max guy wants to join then sign him. But struggling with doughboy, barklonedolph, all our guys, there was something much more fun and gratifying about that. This shyt right here though, fukk this shyt.....:snoop:



Miss all my lil tank dogs, keep striving...:mjcry:

Why should they know better? Will he be motivated to do the things a player of his stature should do in the first place?

Nah...It's not that Lebron needs more motivation, It's that he plays differently based on the situation. He becomes more aggressive(selfish) shooting the basketball when people talk shyt. That's when he's at his best. He also plays more aggressive( shooting the basketball) when his back is against the wall. Just look at his history. Lebron shoots the ball more in elimination games, games 7's, or when his team is down in a series. I'd rather Lebron take 25 shots per game than seeing Rondo brick shot after shot.

BTW,...Jordan used things people said about him as motivation.

lmaoooooo you don’t need to tell me anything about a guy I watched on Sundays. I don’t care about him shooting “aggressive”. Like I said what he apparently cannot do consistently at this stage of his career shouldn’t be contingent on whether Bev is popping shyt

You’re also adding in new variables like older age, injury, a destroyed locker room, a coach that doesn’t know how to make in game adjustments, rotations, or what kinda lineups to put together.

You can’t speak definitively like this haven’t not seen what Bron does with those circumstances plus these added variables. Maybe he gets mad enough to put on a big performance? Maybe he gives it his all and still fails? I couldn’t tell you either way. Plus LeBron not the spiteful killer that Jordan or Kobe were.

This summer is the most important in the history of our franchise since 96, and probably even more important than that

-The continued improvement of BI and Zo
-Fire everyone in the medical staff, and hire a new crew
-Draft a big man, buy a second round draft pick and draft a prospect
-If we're not going to fire Luke, then replace his assistant coaches
-Sign a second star
-sign versatile role players to long term deals(2 years plus)

The fact that they were even considering bringing in an old washed up Melo shows that they don't know what the hell they are doing.
