If we had AD + another star + our young we'd defintely have won a title wtf are you talking about.

We would've had either PG or Kawhi if Bron wasn't here.

AD + PG or Kawhi + BI + supporting cast is a top team in the league.

Y'all forget we had our young core and financial flexibility for THREE max FA's.


We were a 35 win team on an upward trajectory before Bron and we've typically been a low 40s win team with him. We're not trending upwards. Things fell our way for 1 season

What's unfortunate about Ham's is his resume. He's always won at the right time. Because he has that WCF birth in his first year and the IST championship on his mantle is why management can justify keeping him. Even though he's a terrible coach who isn't improving. Management can convince themselves that he'll do well when the stakes are higher.

He's like that student that fails every quiz, every assignment and then all of a sudden aces his finals.
You say that about Walton and Vogel? Place the blame where it really belongs lmaoo

yall talk about cheap owners okay let's say we had the richest owner in sports, Steve Ballmer.

The man has RW on his team right this second, so what makes you think he wouldn't have been down with Bron/AD wanting to trade for RW?

We have Steve as our owner, we still get RW and it still fails cuz Bron fails to properly mesh with him.

Yall really act like having a different owner or coach would drastically change the situation we're in.....FOH......Ballmer would probably be sucking off Bron harder than Jeanie is. You see how he been coddling kawhi and PG

Im not the biggest Jeanie fan neither but yall crazy acting like the biggest issue isnt the franchise being held hostage by Klutch Inc.

being in position to get Bron was a unique position for us but it ran its course. We need a #1 star who's younger and in his prime. None of these new guys are as polarizing and powerful as Bron too so going forward you dont gotta worry about all this "other" shyt.

If Balmer's doing that with lesser stars, who haven't won and Jeanie let LeBron/Klutch "run" things, what makes you think things would be different with a "less powerful" star? If ownership is soft they're always going to be soft and there will always be a star to take advantage. Any star without that power probably isn't good enough to move the needle anyway.

First off Kawhi has won :manny:

But as far as if things would be different, you're right that a star that isnt as big as Bron could still take advantage of soft ownership, but theres only star in the league with an agency with media members connected to it, there's only star putting out the hit pieces every season, only one star who has needed his entire roster revamped at the trade deadline multiple times in his career, only one star who needs so many coaching changes.

Any star could present problems but Bron is on another level and he's at the tail end of this career. If he's in his early 30s i mean this situation is a lot more tolerable to deal with. But we're sitting here placating an old ass nikka, shyt we probably gonna invite his son to training camp next season. This shyt has gone too far and a change of coaching or Jeanie "spending more money" even though we're always over the cap and isn't gonna change anything.

Kawhi and PG haven't won in LA. Toronto and SA are irrelevant to the conversation. The biggest problem is LA doesn't have smart basketball people making decisions. That doesn't change once LeBron leaves. :yeshrug:

y'all are a bunch of hoes if we're being honest. :manny:

Dr Buss was just as cheap as Jeanie is, all that "cheap" talk is trash when we're top 10 in payroll every single season, just built a new practice facility, etc. Every title y'all have witnessed the Lakers win was with a "cheap" owner whether u crybaby ass nikkas wanna admit it or not. Yall act like Dr Buss had a reputation as some free wheeling spender when it was the exact opposite.

Yall keep talking about Ham but not one person has mentioned what coach we're supposed to hire him to replace him thats so much better. Nevermind the fact he got hired into a BS situation in the first place.

The real issue is the man sabotaging our franchise, but a lot of you LWO nikkas scared of these LeGBT nikkas so yall try to be neutral and act like everything else is the problem.

But nah nvm, if we had just signed Alex Caruso for a 40M tax hit and hired a new coach we'd be the best team in the league rn im sure :mjlol: If we had Steve Ballmer as owner im sure the Russ trade would've never happened too right :dead:
Can we pin this post? This is the post of the year, no bullshyt. A 40 year old man who picks and chooses when to play with effort and has thrown every coach, GM and teammate under the bus through secondary sources is dictating how y’all feel about this franchise. I’m so fukking confused. Every fukking year this team has catered to him in every single way and it has been a disaster.

First it was Luke Walton’s fault, then Vogel and now it’s Hams fault.. is it ochie Wally or one mic :mjlol:

And what did Walton do as the HC of Sacramento?

Vogel was done dirty...but Injuries played a huge factor...and of course, the RW trade which everyone involved deserves some blame (Lebron, Pelinka, Jeanie, AD)

Ham is straight trash....How do you continue to start Prince when to have 2 players that are more impactful (Vando, Rui)

* AD wanted to play with Lebron, not Kawhi/PG13.

* Had Lebron gone to the Clippers, AD would've joined him.

* How would they have won if Kawhi/PG13 are always hurt?

* If Lebron goes to Philly with Embiid....They would've won multiple championships by now.

* How can you say AD would've won a championship when he's never managed to stay healthy?........ You can't just give players rings based on hypotheticals when they can't stay healthy...How many times did AD even make it to the WCF despite having talented rosters in NO?
