The issue really is there is no ball movement and they don’t have anyone besides Lebron who can penetrate a defense to create for others

It’s why Hali should be playing. The roster was always screaming for another playmaker

Haliburton, Derrick White , Jrue can all do that. Steve Kerr needs to put the ball in the hands of the guards. It will kill the stagnation, and they can generate more open shots

Relying on a 39 year old to carry you is not gonna work. Lakers already tried that and they were an 8th/9th place team in the league

These nikkas don’t know this is the usual experience. For the first two weeks of every season he looks like 7’2 Jahlil Okafor until he gets his legs under him. Then he snaps back into himself

The Lakers being poorly constructed had more to do with than the Lebron holding them back youre intimating

Do you see now why Team USA staff tried to bring couple defensive players in? This team's defense sucks. Everyone's going through them.

They’re picking on Steph and even White like crazy. Team USA switches everything and those 2 get killed when switched on bigs/wings

By all accounts that 08 Redeem Team changed him. Wade, Carmelo and others say that Lebron seeing Kobe work as hard as he did flipped a switch in Lebron to take the game more serious. By 2012 Bron was routinely the best player and leading the team. Kobe fell back and was more of a role player for most of those Olympics with Lebron leading.
Dont offend @Sccit saying this :
