The lakers are moving on from LeBron James after this season and LeBron feels a way. LeBron camp “Luka didn’t even want to be a laker”.

Exactly. Bosh wouldn't have done much going forward

How quickly you forget that Wade went blow for blow with Joe Johnson and lost in 7

Then Celtics Big 3 made him bend the knee and make the call for LeBron to save him

Like I said before the playoffs started, that this playoff run and drive have no indication on my decision going forward," said Wade. "This will be my last first-round exit for a while, I can tell you that. I’m looking forward to continuing to build and being with some great players next year -- continuing to beef up our roster.


Enjoy your weekend, champ

It's hard to imagine LeBron going to Golden State. You've tried to have this curated career and then you run up under Steph? An ideal situation would be a situation like KD found with Houston but what young team is a LeBron away?
yeah I generally agree but I also think winning the gold medal together broke some barrier where Bron would actually be agreeable to going there to finish out his career. Curry was the closer of the gold medal game but Bron was generally regarded as the top dog of the squad, so there is some precedent in place for how it would look. He also has his Klutch ties with Draymond and now has a relationship with Kerr after the Olympics. It’s the situation that makes the most sense for like a 2 year run if they could figure out how to make the deal work. Cleveland would be a an option too but those dudes made it clear they aren’t interested in making it the Bron show out there again. I can’t think of another situation that makes much sense.

Buyout most likely.. mid season.to garantee if lakers wins..he gets a ring
:mjlol: at the Lakers having a chance of winning a ring in the west with Luka/Reaves/Ayton.
But everything, where it's little or subtle, that Bron does is strategic as much as his camp may try to downplay reports and things. Reading the practicing at Ohio stuff is just another example of his playbook. One of the greatest players, but it's those kind of things that are the put off qualities.

Yeah I don't think Bron going there hurts his or Steph's careers outside the initial shock

Once the dust settles and everybody came to terms with it, people will see this isn't 2016 Bron & Steph teaming it's closer to KG & Ray on the Celtics

People will still say whatever, Bron going to Steph's team etc but he's already gone through that with Wade and that was in his prime. He's scored more points than anybody ever, more minutes than anybody, top 5 in assists. He's already killed Steph & GS and they got him too. There's nothing really to prove.

Wtf you think they are trying to do? it's a process, one that should not be rushed for Lebron James. Doing the wrong move now can be costly for the future especially with Bron retiring. It's less of a risk to wait it out. :dahell:

I’m not exactly sure :yeshrug:

I do agree with you though. It is a process

But their has process has been dogshyt these past 4 years. Hell just look at last season when they did absolutely zero in free agency with Bron and AD on the team. And the reason why the did zero was because of what they did in free agency the year before. Signing bums that nobody even wanted and giving them all player options only to watch all those bums pick up their options because they’d all be out of the league if they didn’t

Gabe Vincent was their prize.

What kind of process is that?

If they weren’t gifted Luka what would we saying about the Lakers?

Landing a Superstar is one thing but how you build out the team around them is what makes a management competent or incompetent.

I'm a Bron fan but it's exhausting dealing with this back and forth.


He lacks some self awareness.


Either ask for a trade or sit back and stop this media game.



By the way, fukk the bytch made radical Kobe Stans :pacspit:


He’s been playing the media game since at least the comeback to Cleveland. He’s not stopping now
