They've won 6 in a row, 9 of their past 11 to go top of their division. They're beating good teams. The new player they brought in appears to be functioning well. Gotta tip your hat to a new dynasty from a franchise that was completely finished but took a risk on a 25 year old overweight alcoholic who would never amount to anything by being awake when he showed up at their doorstop. LA could use some luck. Can someone please post pics of him drinking a beer in the offseason after he led his team to the finals to show why visionary, diverse GM nico harrison made the dumbest trade in sports history
**** the Lakers, I hope they implode and Luka leaves and signs with us on a veteran minimum contract to preserve our cap flexibility.
I will take that alcoholic off the Lakers for the Rockets but I'm pretty sure the league would block it. That crooked deal was to help the league and it stinks.
Nike did this Trade, I believe it. Makes too much sense. Former Nike Nico Harrison and CEO Nike Phillip Knight (Hates Michael Jordan leaving Nike to create Brand Jordan) LeBron James under Nike Contract promotes LeBron James over Michael Jordan Narrative all over ESPN. Phillip Knight wants Michael Jordan and Kobe Bryant Status and Image tarnished. LeBron James wins 7 Championships. LeBron James stuck at 4 Championships all Asterisks.
They're legit after the Luka trade...what makes them scary is how they improved defensively even after trading AD...it will come down to matchups, but I don't want to see them in the 1st round. The NBA would want to see an extended playoffs with the Lakers so our identity of physicality will not fare well in the playoffs against the Lakers (refs will foul us all every night)...we need to play a team like the Grizzlies or Kings in the 1st round where TV ratings won't be a focus in those matchups in order to give us a chance to advance to the 2nd round.
Anyone else gonna call out the blatant racism in OP's post there?? Or we just gonna pretend like the word "diverse" wasn't a reference to what we all know he was talking about?
OP has to be a Lakers fan trolling us. Or maybe he's Nico Harrison signing up on every NBA fan site to spread how the Lakers "took a risk" on a 25 years old alcoholic.
They won't be screwed in the playoffs Like Harden and CP3 They don't have a REF THAT HATES them like we did Rocket River
If it's not Houston I'll be rooting for the Lakers. LeBron is already my GOAT, but I'd love to see the meltdowns from those who hate him as a human being.
