Reaves - Undrafted rookie free agent
Gabriel - Three teams this season alone
Johnson - 10 day contract fodder
Dwight - Washed and got 33 minutes
Augustin - Another guy signed off the scrap heap
THT - Scrub that had 21 minutes

Who are you replacing these nobodies with out of thin air? LeBron is the only guy you can count on nightly (Edit: Monk too). Everybody else is a crap shoot. Arguing otherwise is just being a dishonest bozo.

NOBODY else in the league wanted these guys who are DEPENDED on every night for the Lakers.

Also Avery Bradley, who was waived by both the Rockets and the Warriors before the season even began, has started more games for the Lakers than anyone other than Westbrook and Bron.

I watch a fair share of Laker games. There hasn't been many games where you actually feel Bron's impact on the game. I'm talking about he's controlling all facets. Both The Rams games he was on it. There was a Memphis loss he was great too etc but there has also been a fair share of games where his points just didn't seem like they mattered to the outcome of the game. Based on expectation and production the only guys I have no beef with is Reaves, Melo & Monk

This is consistently the dumbest take on here.

The only way that buckets have no impact is is you score them inefficiently, in garbage time, or in easy situations that anyone else could have. Bron is out there creating his own buckets AND everyone else's buckets all game long at an incredibly efficient rate. That has an enormous impact.

And if "controlling all facets" is the only way someone has impact then hardly anyone in the NBA impacts a game by that measure. :mjlol:

So doesn’t Bron’s impact affect the result of games in a more positive way then?

It does. Unfortunately the floor is very low for a team that's basically Westbrook and a bunch of guys picked up off of waivers. Replace Bron with 98% of the players in the NBA and this team is competing for the #1 spot in the lottery.

Lies...

Lakers would be a better team if lebron retired and Russ took the reigns..

Lebozo knows the team HE constructed Is trash. So he's going for the scoring title to the detriment of the team

Trade this hoe . Or retire . Get it oFF the Lakers we never did and don't want you
