You can criticize Bron for being a 50-60m starting player like any other star player. But to act like his 40s determines his legacy is hilarious. Cause I’ve never heard this imbeciles say that Jordan in Washington or Shaq in Boston, or Barkley in Houston or whatever determines their legacy.


None of those situations included a full blown propaganda campaign and 7+ years of front office sabotaging bullshyt.

I was told the Western Conference was full of elite teams :hubie:

Houston got a bunch of top five picks, an all-star big, top five defense, and 41 year old Lebron disposed of them with a bunch of rejects.
:smh: always a team effort man. lakers. they didn't have Luka but Houston didn't have KD either. marcus smart has won a DPOY. they have austin, a decent core of players on that roster. they won 53 games

Always a team effort but ya'll are acting like 41 year old Lebron losing to the defending champs without his best teammate is a referendum on his career :mjlol:

Austin missed most of the series, Marcus Smart and Deandre Ayton were signed off the buyout market, Luke Kennard was just traded for Gabe fukking Vincent. Nobody picked the Lakers to win that series but now all of a sudden they have this great collection of talent.

a decent player can't be signed off the buyout market. lakers were 1st in the pacific division

marcus smart 3 time all defense first team
DPOY 2022

deandre ayton ole danny glover lookin ass aint nothing special, but he is a contributor

kennard gave yall a boost and shot 48% from 3 for the games he played for the lakers.

im lookin at the roster and folks stepped up. thats how yall got past houston.

The poster said " LeBron could have made it out of the East and add to his participation trophy awards".

Me: so is he still that great-even at 41, he's still capable of leading a team to the NBA Finals

Me: are you trying to clown LeBron for his finals runs/being in the East and not winning titles

Does that answer your question?

YES IF YOU PAIRED
BRON WITH AN AD/LUKA
CALIBER PLAYER IN THE EAST
HE WOULD HAVE CONTINUED
TO MAKE FINALS RUNS
WHEREAS THEY WERE GETTING
THEIR ASS WHOOPED OUT WEST.

JIMMY BUTLER LEAD
A LOTTERY TEAM AND A PLAY IN TEAM
TO 2 DIFFERENT FINALS.

BEING 41 DOESNT MEAN shyt TO ME
BECAUSE THE LEAGUE IS MUCH MORE
TILTED TOWARDS OFFENSIVE PLAYERS
THAN IT WAS WHEN HE CAME
INTO THE LEAGUE WHICH HAS
ALLOWED HIM TO MAINTAIN
JUST LIKE BRADY DID
WITH THE QB RULES.

HES STAYED IN SHAPE,
AVOIDED MAJOR INJURIES
AND NEVER HAD LONG DEPARTURES
FROM THE GAME
:devil:

Lebron JUST IN HIS LAKERS TENURE, is a top 30-40 player of all time

And this version of LeBron “just there to make movies”

A “6’9 Kevin Hart”

“Has a better chance of winning an Emmy than a ring”

7x All NBA
Assist leader
1 ring
2 WCF appearances

Hell if he actually wanted to he could have a had a scoring title couple years ago, but he sat out towards the end and said it was whack to chase it when he wasnt making the playoffs

BRON COULD HAVE DEFINITELY
MADE IT OUT THE EAST THIS YEAR

HE SHOULD HAVE STAYED
OVER THERE AND CONTINUED
TO PAD HIS FINALS PARTICIPATION AWARDS.


THERES LEVELS
:devil:
:evil:


I think he realizes now he should've kept re-upping in Cleveland. He probably didn't realize he'd still be playing a decade after beating the Warriors.

The Cavs would've outlasted Golden State and he would've went to a good 2-3 Finals in the 2020s.

Was Luka healthy and in shape last year vs this year?
You damn well know Luka needed to lose 15-20lbs and was still recovering from his injuries..
