This is a soon to be shyt show..

Cats out the bag

All these players & coaches understand that they are all merely just pawns in Bron’s pursuit of Jordan. Look how eager he was to send that tweet after Jordan’s commercial.

To be fair Bron lives with that pressure everyday but it’s almost self imposed at this point. He embraced the idea of chasing Mike. It wasn’t like it was before when they were just on his ass to get a ring. This however is a circus

Kyrie leaving Cleveland under the circumstances he did may haunt Bron for the rest of his playing days. All of these boys have eyes and more importantly their own path to journey down. PG already has been on record saying guys feel funny at this point playing with Bron. I can easily see Kawhi saying no thanks. I doubt KD changes his mind either. When it comes down to it the only plausible possibility is AD...but one never knows

This is it. All of Brons shenanigans were vieved as him being just a guy trying to win. It was always that he was a great teammate. But when Kyrie demanded out, it sent a crack through the fabric of Bron. Now every single sideways remark, post, pout, etc. gets people saying ":jbhmm: So thaaaaats why Kyrie left." And Im not really defending Kyrie because I dont think he was a great teammate either but its something about being the dumper instead of the person that got dumped that always gives you the upper hand. Now people going to play with Bron are essentially looking like pawns instead of teammates.

dont see a problem in here, lakers are underperforming and magic wants to have a talk with the coach. Whats the problem in here? That doesnt mean he's getting fired. Luke has been underwhelming in previous laker years too, he's too young to be the coach, some veterans cant take him serious when he was a role player back in the laker days when guys like rondo were playing against him :pachaha: so if he eventually gets fired it's not like lakers losing a really great coach. His pops Bill Walton is the reason why Luke got that nba players and nba coaches career :manny:
:patrice:

*looks at roster and conference*

Only he knows... but from afar I think he wants a Steve Kerr or brad Stevens type where the ball continue to move and where they challenge their players on the defensive end...

Luke have no idea about the defensive adjustments because every game the defense continues to layback
We had good ball movement last season and we were a top 10 defensive team. All the new players and bron complicated things for him. I dont see how they expect him just to pick up from last season

His rotations have been horrific. Sitting a hit Lance down in the 4th of two close losses, then outright not playing him after he Shaqing a fool on one play where they barely beat the Mavs.

I dont think Luke has a gut for seeing what’s going on during games.

It would be weird to do this now cause this was always a lost season that no one cared about...

Anybody who willfully goes out and signs lance and javele to 1 year deals...isn't trying to win anything...

Lakers aren't on the clock until free agency this summer...

What other coaches are out there that would be willing to come in mid season and coach this incomplete roster? Magic set Luke up for failure with his signings. They have no backup center!

If Luke is going to be fired, I would almost just rather wait until the end of the season.

How does this even make sense? How is it a lost season when we're building towards the future? How does no one care about this season when it's a vital year for the young guys, and a vital year for Bron to lead this team far enough that it attracts another star FA?

The narrative that this season doesn't matter for the lakers is retarded. Just because we not winning a chip doesn't mean the season doesn't matter, smh
