Don’ be a Sabo while chasin’ 4 rings in LA: 2021-22 GOAT franchise Boss Angeles Lakers season thread

[ALonelyDad]

I feel like next season will be very similar unless AD is as good as 1b on this team. LeBron can not have such a huge gap at this age, he’s scoring at a crazy rate right now, expecting him to do it again is unrealistic.

THEY CAN BEAT
DEN, GS & OKC

LMAO they couldn’t beat New Orleans, they blew a 23 point lead to the Thunder. Nick Van Exel ain’t walking through that door.

Vogel played him 40 minutes tonight. Bron has been getting tired late in games like that even since the title season in 2020. I've said that over and over again. He's a 37yo player carrying over 250lbs and today he was coming off an ankle injury besides. How is it surprising that he wasn't effective 40 minutes in?

My question is if it’s obvious to us on the coli that LeBron becomes less effective as the minutes tick up I assume basketball savant LeBron James realizes this so why doesn’t he request to play fewer minutes?

a lot of his teammates are basura and aren't even playable, for example Ariza

And replace him with?

Literally everyone who could take LeBron's place is absolutely ass. Bron was very good for 30 minutes and average for 10. If there was someone else who could be decent for 10 in his place then it would be great to save Bron for 30, but right now anyone taking those minutes wouldn't be average, they'd be outright bad.

Not on the last play

Bron only need two more games….averaging like 33 to solidify the scoring title

Giannis on his ass though, breh been scoring his ass off.

He could’ve played fewer minutes, but then the game wouldn’t have even been close at the end.

For some reason it was glaringly noticeable last night.

The laziness on defense all season has been inexcusable. It’s like the Lakers use all their energy on offense.

One of the most disappointing seasons in memory.

 

[Easy-E]

then we need to fill roster with 3 and d players ..

How long the Lakers gonna depend on buyout guys?

You realize they have ZERO Cap Space?

Really, LAL needs to blow the entire team up

Lebron is too old for a rebuild

Russ can play with nobodies and be entertaining

AD can get them young talent and future draft picks

Out of the Lakers “super” teams this is easily the WOAT iteration and its not close.
