LeBron James Discussion: Not Returning To The Lakers

Why was he wearing "nutters"?

 

Pink shoes SMH. Trying to impress Westbrick with his sense of fashion?

 

Didn't Schroder signed for 5M or even less? You can't S&T that

Last summer was really the worst with Russ move and Caruso. Set us back many years, but now we have to move forward and think how can we succeed post-Lebron

 

Scout Bron back to work

 

BUT will you take a lifetime ban of consecutive, reactionary replies whether or not LeBron wins another title? Jw

 

The GOAT Always working...

 

You have To axe LeBron… he runs the lakers now , every lakers related decision goes thru Mr James . I am sure he wants nothing more but to ban me forever . After all, nobody wants to be called fake Azz goat , Chinese Knock phony with 6 nba finals losses .

Get back to me, lemme know what he said .

 

I read this on the web and it's actually interesting: LeBron never demanded a move and always left in FA. I'm sure he doesn't want to be traded now and keep that reputation in his legacy.
So I think there's a good chance he doesn't want to re-sign with us

 

i think he wants to re-sign with us because nobody us can or will offer him his full max and allow him to compete for titles. so he's trying to get his full max here and have the lakers empty their future assets in attempt to compete. but we said no to the latter so far, so he's had to recalibrate.

he's not going to walk for peanuts in FA next year, imo. if all lebron cared about were titles, he could maybe join memphis (who should have money next year), but i don't think that's his game at this point.

anyway, i don't think we could replace him in FA, but i also think it's not worth it to trade everything to appease him right now. i'd do what's best for the franchise and risk him walking, tbh. even if it means he takes all klutch with him, which i'm sure is the unspoken threat.

 

I do not want to give Lebron too much credit for anything as I can't stand how selfishly he played last year and it is hard to stomach him being a Laker. With that said, it seems like he was genuinely embarrassed about last season for the Lakers and understands how that effects him legacy wise. He watched film and knows despite his points he looked bad. It appears he has put in some work and has one last hurrah up his sleeve. He isn't ready to take a backseat status to anyone yet. This combined with Ham accountability approach could put us in championship contention. Free throw work along with him just looking healthy and motivated are good signs to me. I will never be in the Lebron fan club but if he gets us #18 it will sneak him toward #7 all time in my own rankings. Right now for me I got in order Kareem, Magic, (Kobe, Jordan tied), Bird and Duncan as players he can't pass at this point. I got my headgear and gloves so start swinging...lol.

 

LeBron is as good as GONE !!! this new ROOKIE member will gladly take all your money if you wanna bet !!

Remember this post

 

just curious, how did he play "selfishly" last year?

and lol @ lebron 7th all time. he's the second greatest player of all time at worst and there's definitely an argument for him to be the GOAT. there is no other player in league history who has stayed elite for as long as lebron has

 

Last season he gave up on the team once he realized it couldn't win. Once he knew no moves could be made he primarily focused on his scoring which he is still elite at.

 

elite ? As in famous for losing nba finals ? Sure Burger King is an elite burger joint! But In&out is the GOAT .

 

That’s what “goats” do !!! They give up and go party with rich Paul

 

F u LeBron u ain’t the greatest of all time stop this BS !!

 

Good to see you rested up and active today.

 

agree with both. lebron a) is easily in the GOAT conversation if not already at the head of the table, and b) is well past his prime and mails it in when it's clear he can't win.
