This yall king?


“That's how our team is constructed. We don't have room for error — for much error.”

In a follow-up, James was asked if the Lakers had to play near-perfect basketball most nights to win. And again, James basically said the roster flaws demanded it.

“We don't have a choice,” James said. “I mean… that's the way our team is constructed. And we have to, we have to play close-to-perfect basketball.”

Can't blame him. No alltime great would be happy with a roster like this.

How many of these dudes would even be rotation players on other teams?

Not to mention Bron & AD flat out aren't 1st tier options anymore. Bron can't carry a team anymore...not on an every night basis...and passing the "torch" to AD was a bust. AD can't dominate on a night to night either. He needs a pg on his team who can shoot/score and spoonfeed him while attracting enough attention to open the lane for him.

And Reaves the 3rd option just isn't good enough.

After that Roster is gawd-awful. DFS is a nice role player but he needs to play with talent to be effective. Max and Knecht are gonna be good players but right now just too limited and inexperienced. Team literally only has 3 players that u can rely on every night:snoop:

The roster is fine.

Bron makes the most money. But then wants players as good as him and/or better to be there

It is on him and AD to do their thing and impact winning on a nightly basis

Crazy how having two of the Top 15ish contracts in the NBA constrains the rest of the roster :ohhh:

Reality is Reaves providing his value on his contract is saving this team from being a complete disaster
