    LeBron does not have defensive instincts. I am forecasting LeBron and Lakers miss the playoffs. LeBron's 3 point field goal percentage won't be above 30% at the end of the season.
    Players have a better stats on a bad team than stats relative to the success of the team.

    NBArank of Mine: 1-5

    Kawhi Leonard

    Giannis Antetokounmpo

    Stephen Curry

    James Harden

    Kevin Durant

    NBArank: 6-10
    Anthony Davis and LeBron James are overrated!

    Ofcourse he's not. Life was good beating up on eastern conference teams his whole career. Anybody who thought Lebron would dominate in the West is delusional

    You can't say LeBron has no defensive instincts, and then have Curry and Harden in your top 5.

    This is one of those dumb predictions where there is no downside for the prognosticator.

    If right, he can parade the thread for quite some time. If wrong, nobody will remember this thread was ever created.

    LeBron will try harder in the playoffs, but even then. This team won't get past the first round and even getting in the playoffs is going to be tough. He can't LeCoast this season, but I'm not sure he cares all that much. He himself would have to be delusional to think the Lakers have a chance against the Warriors.

    He can get paid max money, put up stats in the season, shoot Space Jam 2, and then coast for the next four years and pray that Warriors get unlucky with injuries, free agency, etc. Worst case scenario its fruitless but he at least gets to chill in LA instead of Cleveland.

    Well, unless making it clear one is an idiot is a downside.

    Kind of like "Rudy Gay is about to show the world he's on Durant's level"?

    I dun know. He is probably the only 'Non Top 5' guy that could get you b2b 40+ points.

    Just immensely blessed to share his generation, watch him grow as a player at about the same age.

    His practice sessions with the Dream.

    GOAT worthy material.

    LOL! That one was different because the poster has a track record of saying weird/dumb stuff and people here love to make fun of him. Repeatedly.

    If he gets 25-7-7 that's probably considered a bad game for him.
