Bron isn't a player that can lead you to a championship anymore

And he will never play a 2nd or 3rd role on a team that could
AD has been the leader of the Lakers the past few years… when they went to the WCF it was firmly ADs team while Lebron was #2

So he took less money because he wasnt up to the task or the spotlight? :ld:

He actually did the Lakers a favor. $20 mil guaranteed for 38 year old Klay? :francis:

Lakers were arguably the 2nd best team when they went to the WCF and just so happened to run into the best in the conference finals.

So yeah I do dispute that since he was a hobbled #2 on an incredibly flawed roster that was put together 70% of the way in the year.. and were very close

So they will win the championship this season?

They are a contender?

Well this is a team game, not a 2v2 game.. I know it’s hard for casuals to understand that.

However Lebron is BY FAR the best #2 in the NBA and it’s not close.

So if the Lakers put together a better team around both, then yeah they’d be contenders.

You’re absolutely right, he “forgot” how to play basketball when it was looking like Wade was going to win the FMVP.
