You talking as if there’s any move they could have made to close the gap with GS.

No need to make a premature moves for a championship that’s already decided.

Well the truth is Lebron was going to The Lakers no matter what...Has nothing to do with the team has everything to do with the location...As soon as Lebron signed into LA you notice how many movies, shows he started having approved dude is literally made a Hollywood boss move.

Lebron signing in LA took about as much effort as having a team in LA with cap space now let’s see if they can find a free agent this next offseason. Lebron probally using this season to rest to be honest.

First off, Bron wouldn’t sign with LA if we still had cokehead and mitch running the show. The front office reshuffling was one of the biggest things that happened for the Lakers to acquire LeBron. I know y’all want to characterize this like Bron just wants to be Hollywood but he knows the implications on his legacy if he doesn’t win a title for LA so rest assured that y’all gon see Bron win a few titles for the Lakers and it’s gon make y’all sick. :smile:

I disagree. The front office prior to Magic was terrible, erratic, didn’t have any cache with free agents. It took Kobe telling Jeanie to get rid of cokehead and mitch for her to finally do it. Without that, the Lakers don’t grt taken serious no matter how much money they got.

Lebron isn’t there for basketball reasons he’s there for business
