Or the Lakers could try being good

aaahaahahaha

I get that Lebron doesn’t have the best team ever, and that be fine if he was losing to teams like the Spurs, Warriors, Rockets, Jazz, Denver, etc.

But he’s losing to the Suns, Pelicans with no AD and Jrue playing 20 mins, Grizzlies, Clippers after having traded their only all star caliber player. It literally just takes some coaching for a bottom of the barrel West team to beat the Lakers

I know right. My lakies haven't been good for ten years and these obsessed losers STILL can't stop talking about us.

>Rockets vs Craptors
>Warriors vs Celshits

Gonna be a good day

>lakeshit fan doesn't comprehend timezones

He's not Shawn Marion. Great rim runner and finisher around the rim. Good enough rebounder and nice athleticism. Will never have the ball in his hands to create. Jumpshot still a work in progress. Hustle man. Basically, what you expect out of a prospect who is 6'10 and athletic. $10 million player option he'll probably take unless there are guarantees a top notch FA comes in.

It's old anime so it's cool.

Try looking at the schedule nigger. We're still the last game in our timezone.

The Lakers don't have good players other than Lebron

Lonzo, the dude that shoots 40% from the Free Throw line, is better than LeBron

Think about this for a minute.

That's because they traded all of their good players away.

>my lakeshits are dying
>even my backup team the spurs are still barely hanging on

Who the hell am I supposed to root for now?

>"You take the challenge and you continue to stay positive no matter what's going on."

Thanks, how’s his defense? He’s a center in today’s league?

Do you think he’ll ever be able to hit a consistent 15 footer?

Cowboys? Yankees? Juventus? IDK

my dad was a laker fan before lebron joined the team and so he started rooting for the warriors. So I guess you should do what comes natural to all laker fans, bandwagon

Kuzma, FUCKING KUZMA, had to remind leshit to play D, as evident in the OP webm. Also Ingram had to carry his sickly ass for weeks.

How is Lebron still the best player in the world? Westbrook took a team of scrubs to the 5th seed averaging 30/10/10 and he’s widely not considered the best PG in the world

What's wrong with that defense? He used very little energy to force a missed long 2. Statistically he could not have played better defense.

because westshit is a stat padding faggot that will never win a chip. Lebron is only just now starting to get recognized as the stat padding faggot he is because he is past his prime and the media thinks its safe to start popping off on him instead of sucking his dick

how many games is this team winning next year

I'm a laker fan, and I think people who have to bring up muh rings need to be castrated. Clippers have been kicking our asses and running the show ever since 2010. Unfortunately, Lakers may never usurp their throne for years to come.

Yankees lookin good this year

Nobody serious thinks that Lebron is still the best player in the world. I think you could make a case that he's not in the top 5

No, he's just playing worse than he used to, because he's old

>Oladipo

Yall are going to eat a pile of doodoo once we make it to the playoffs. Keep talking shit. We'll see who has the last laugh, you fucking pathetic flyover nerds hahaha!

nah most of the media, even hardcore lebron jockers like broussard, have started to jump ship on jordan comparisons. Broussard was also right earlier on cowherds show, lebron is second page news now

Jason Kidd > Lebron

Honestly

>play with westbrook intensity
that isn't a workout thing, thats a "i hate everyone that isn't me" thing, like kobe or jordan.

Oh, yeah, I wanted to mention: I'm so fucking angry that the terrible, stupid-ass Bulls front office managed to stumble into a decent-looking core for the future.

They're such idiots and the Butler trade and the LaVine contract and a million other moves they've made since then have been total garbage but Lauri, Wendell, and Otto Porter is going to be a really fucking nice core, especially if they can get a PG.

>Broussard
>cowherd

under no circumstances should you pay attention to what either of those 2 think

>having a backup team
>having a backup team IN THE SAME CONFERENCE

Lavine is a great three level scorer as well and still athletic as fuck. I’m here for it

The Los Angeles Lakers now have a 1% chance of making the playoffs

They also have a 1% chance of getting the first pick

>ledecline

at least it's not like the lakers and spurs ever played against each other in the postseason or anything

Still a really bad defender, still not a super efficient scorer, and getting paid 20 mil a year for it

Holy shit, even Flea is turning on the Lakers :'(

LeBron

They are both idiots, but I love that broussard is eating his words now and finally admitting that lebron is washed up, you have to understand that this is a dude so far up lebrons ass he had the lakers winning 54 games just with the lebron acquisition alone

Patrician basketball opinion, star hunting is Knicks-tier. In the East Lebron and a poo poo platter is sufficient, in the West you run into a team every three or four days that thinks they have a legitimate shot at a tile.

He also said

>Most disappointing @Lakers season in franchise history.

>Patrick Beverly walked past the media assembled outside the #Lakers locker room and said “what are you all doing over here? The locker room is that way (pointing towards #LAClippers locker room) they’re ain’t nothing in there.”

BLOWN
THE
FUCK
OUT

No you dont
when was the last time they played a west contender

He’s right, the focus is always on the Lakers losing the game even though they’re an awful team. Never the winning team

And now I suddenly know why he hates LeBron

>"I got drafted by the Lakers, they traded me to Miami. LeBron got there, they cut me. I remember it like it was yesterday. So yeah, there's a chip on my shoulder."

Tonight

>hurr durr

>Leltics losing
>Lelkers losing

Finally /nba/ we are entering the golden age when shitty bandwagon franchises like Lakers and Celtics will be blown out and delegated to the bottom seed for the following not 1 not 2 not 3 not 4 not 5 not 6 not 7 years.

Now if only the Warriors finally lose this year.

Based, why doesn’t everyone hate Lebron? Guy has always put himself above everyone not in his posse.

Guys should be playing to hurt him every night.

Spent the last half hour pushing out a Lebron, grandma walked in the bathroom after me and damn near cussed my ass out

My Lakeshits :)

Based.
Jason Kidd won against Lebron back in 2011.

Is /nba/ the dumbest place for basketball discussion

Locked his nigger ass up multiple possessions at 38, imagine if they played against each other in their primes

>L36ron

t. SEETHING lefraud fan

I can't understand that logic from anyone. This is a team that's schemes revolve around the fast break, you hire playmakers and others who can't defend. Lots of high energy guys who can't really shoot but play hard generally and combine them with rookies who (besides ingram) play hard.

Combine all this for your newest all star acquisition who is in his mid 30s and while can still run a fast break is still in his mid 30s. Kobe and Jordan in their early 30s switches their style to still dominate but at a slower pace mostly using their post footwork, star calls and their strength. Problem is these teams in the west all like to run, and teams who play at a high pace can run with the lakers regardless of their pace especially without the three ball threat from the lakers meaning constant rim running often wear people out. This is why there is so many fucking injuries. Also, retarded trade rumours will not bother the vets that are just hanging on that LeBron usually plays around. Trade rumours involving a young core that has never been in the media eye like that? That's different. No wonder all except Ingram stopped giving a shit.

The fucking Kongz couldn't keep that pace up for a whole season and make the playoffs, and all their core are young guys who aren't in trade rumours.

1- Irving
2- Smith Jr.
3- Zion
4- Durant
5- Robinson

still 6th seed and lose in 5

its all he has left, he will never be able to get 6/6, or 10 scoring titles or 6 defense titles, so he has to get his stats

I'd take none of them. Lakers, Celtics and Warriors are all cancers.

The losing streak continues

Both the teams are either offensively oriented on layups/dunks or the mid range.

Pick a 3pt shooting team like Houston.

my nigga, durant will absolutely buttfuck the east and take the knicks to the finals every year. knicks are gonna be a beast team with kd and butler running it.

Bird was better, people always get on Bird and Jordan, guys like that for having good teams (because of all the rings Lebron won with bad teams, right?) but Lebron had a good squad in Miami that won a title 50% of the time they were together and Lebron choked the first time. Could have gone 3-1, how is it Bird’s fault Lebron abandoned that squad to chase greener pastures of Kyrie and Love?

He’s just not a Mt. Rushmore guy, firmly behind Rick Barry, George Mcginnis and Julius Erving at forward

I'm not a LeBron fan. I'm not part of the cancerous fad that cares about any player over a team. It's just that saying "in the west you meet a team that thinks they have a legitimate shot at a title every 3 or 4 days is blatantly false, and whoever made that post should be shot.

The last time the Lakers even played a west contender was on 2/21. Before that, 2/2. The schedule post East road trip has been very forgiving to them, and the toughest stretch they played was against the east. Even the Hawks were the team to put them under .500 for the first time since they played the Warriors.

People here say the dumbest shit, but it gets even more moronic when saying "the west 2 tough u play contender every week" They lose to the Suns, Grizzlies, Pelicans, Hawks. Eveyone here has a double digit iq

To be fair, his playoff mode got him to 3-6.

I want Lebron to go to Philly back then. Almost everyone wise enough is saying he should have.
But at this stage it seems Lelbron should have stayed in Cleveland instead of going to LA
>got a higher salary
>being a beta and listening to your wife and family (they want him to go to LA)
>at least made the playoffs
>based full white teammates like Delly and Zizic instead of mutts like Lonzo and Kuzma

Wrong. Philadelphia is based off the Greek word Philia, hence the city of brotherly love, while the Philippines is a cucked nation named after their ruler King Philip II.

That's a respectable 50% win rate

At this rate Lebum wont even be a first ballot.

My Laketurds :)

Lebron isn’t better than guys like Shawn Marion, Detlef Schrempf, Chris Mullin or Allan Houston

#Lakers
#Losers

It’s a 33% win rate. 3/9 finals.

LeActivated

It’s the sign that a player will decline, once he starts making decisions using family and the franchise history as a reason. It’s the same mistake Nash did.

Basketball reasons should be the first priority.

based and redpilled

>50%

I still can't believe LeBron is a Laker. Like what the fuck guys. How did this happen? I feel like any other team would have been a better fit. It feels like selling out. It feels wrong. The NBA is going to be so much better when LeBron is gone.

I've seen that bait before

Except didnt he say he was a slave and the owner, dan or whoever of the cavs, was the master? Hes a dumb nigger and all his career moves show this.

Mate, He went to 9 finals and won 3. That’s a 33% win rate. Kobe went to 7 and won 5, that’s a 71% win rate. Jordan went to 6 and won 6. He has a 100% win rate.

>Jordan went to 6 and won 6
6/6 is only = 1

Where does AI rank all time among guards?

I hope Westbrook gets his ring this year by overcoming Golden State and then sweeping the Sixers and then KD goes to the Knicks and 3peats there. Thats the absolute best timeline and what baseketball needs...

That's bait are you fucking autistic?

What will Lebron’s 2k rating be next year? If they fairly calculate his defense.

leaving the cavs was the best thing he ever did. They are one of the most incompetent franchises in the league

He's in my top 5 for total impact. Stats alone are for losers.

And you multiply that by 100 to get the percentage. The total on the bottom is either equal or higher than the top when calculating percentage.

just below brandon jennings

Imagine him in todays league where he wouldnt get body slammed going in

I’m just bored. Besides, I wanted to slip Kobe’s stats in there.

let it end in that fucking shithole city. They deserve each other.

lebron is already gone, the lakers will just spend a few years burying his body while we get to watch glorious lebronless playoffs

current players run to him on the sidelines and hug him like he's their long lost daddy. Some day soon people will do the same to Wade. Top 5.

Why doesn’t Lebron just sit at this point? Playing 40 odd minutes a night is of no benefit to him or the Lakers.

Try and let the young guys showcase their value, since you’re losing anyway, and get some rest.

To build his stats up. Plus if he sits everyone will rip on him and no FA will consider playing with him.

this...lebitch aint got shit on based ai...

they want him to blow out his acl so they can use the disabled player and sign someone who'll contribute to winning in livrons place
they'll literally win less games than last season

Remember when people said Magic Johnson was a genius, and slowly building a powerhouse?

Is this the biggest collapse in Los Angelas history? Losing multiple games to tanking teams when you're fighting for a playoff spot with a stacked roster.

He already sat down. His injury wasn’t serious, yet he took 18 games off. I don’t think he cares as much.

He’s a good businessman I’m sure, but he clearly has no idea how to build an NBA team. This is the guy that thought Lonzo Ball and Michael Carter Williams would be Jason Kidd because they’re light skin black guards over 6’4+ that play defense, get rebounds and assist.

Now that LeBron's legacy is finished, where do you have him all-time? He's #6 on my list.

#KuzMania

Attached: durant-kevin.jpg (1920x1080, 276K)

It is.

The problem is that it's not built to make the playoffs in the first place.

They have good players but they need to go to other teams to reach their potential. Lebron doesn't help develop young players. Especially Lonzo Ball he needs to go to another team.

How do the Lakers feel now that they know they've completely ruined any possible chance Lebron had of being considered the best ever?

Like you can't even try to argue it anymore when before you could say something like "well, if he keeps this production up"

Can’t wait for Lonzo to join my Sunnies, Booker will teach him to shoot. Get some quality vets, RJ Barrett, and we’re in the playoffs.

Keep in mind the Suns have the best medical staff and will get the most out of Lonzo

Lakers haven’t been in the playoffs from 2013. They went from perennial playoff team to this. If anything, legace of the Lakers has taken a massive hit as well and will likely continue under this owner.

Does anyone else think the Clippers will be fun to watch in the playoffs this year? Gallinari is playing like an all star, Lou Williams is crafty, SGA is having a great rookie year, Harrell brings energy, Beverly is an irritant nigger hellbent on causing problems, and looks and acts like a Somali pirate. Shamet had a game the other day when he made 5 threes in a quarter, as a rookie, hes showing hes capable of making it happen too. Zubats was a great acquisition. I think it will be fun to see how it all shakes out, if they perform well like theyve shown theyre capable of.

The Clippers managed to lock down two of the better prospects of the past draft, now that theyve got them, they just have to bulk up a bit, keep doing what theyre doing, and SGA specifically will become a monster. Hopefully the solid play these guys show will attract big attention from potential all stars.

There's not a single doubt their legacy has taken a massive hit. Lebron has been in the finals since 2011 on garbage teams and they cant even make the playoffs. No one wants to go there.

The guy who was an all star and Roty before Lebron came back?

Looks like the lottery odds change worked - it's late February and the Suns are actually trying to win games as they have no reason to lose them.

That’s good, losing like that has to be bad for the culture. Imagine how much confidence they gained humiliating Lebron in front of hundreds of Phoenix Lakers fans

>actually trying to win games

No. They have the Bucks number for some reason and they Lakers are just that fucking bad

>he made an all star team in the this means he didn't develop as a player

i mean a team featuring scrappy knuckleheads like beasley, mcgee, lance, and rondo and beast young dudes like kuz and zubac(before the trade) can definitely take it to the warriors but you need a fantastic leader and passionate player to do that, which lefraud is not. this team is better fit for a guy like westbrook to lead it, he would have the lakeshits at the 5th or 6th seed.

What did Kyrie get better at when Lebron joined the team that can be attributed to playing alongside Lebron specifically? He was already an elite scorer who’s playmaking duties diminished with a perennial ball hog on the team. His defense certainly didn’t get better and his efficiency improved, then dipped again when he played on the Celtics. So Lebron didn’t make him a more efficient player moving forward, he was just more efficient on a better team vs a tanking team.

Lebron never developed shit

tbf westbrick won't be averaging triple doubles when he's fuckin 34

it's like the elephant in the room no one wanted to look at when he signed there, and then christmas happened

You just didn't want to say "no shit Kyrie was more efficient playing with Lebron". Lick paint tard

Oh shit

Remember how hyped Lelker bandwagons were when they signed Luke??

Circle the wagons boys! You need a new coach!

Lebron by himself makes young players more efficient, but the young players on the Lakers are trash? Dead that narrative.

I remember, read a post on here to the effect of “We took the Warriors best coach!”

Lakers fans will always embarrass themselves

No one said that, shithead. Ingram and Kuzma both improves and Lonzo runs the offense smoothly.

Unironically isn't Luke's fault. Shittily constructed roster, no chemistry between players, LeGM gets his way, timeline of the rebuild totally thrown off by signing Lebron in the first place too. Why the hell would you sign a bunch of vets to 1-year deals in hopes of getting a big FA in the offseason and then be mad that you aren't winning with that? Do people really think Rondo, Bealsey, Lance, and Javale in their current ages should make a contender? Lets not forget that lonzo can't shoot from range of take people off the dribble, either.

Kuzma shot 36% from three last year, want to guess what he’s shooting next to Lebron who has improved him as a player?

Brandon Ingram shot 39% from 3 last year on the exact same volume, want to guess what he’s shooting now that he has Lebron who single handedly contributes to improved 3pt field goals?

Now that dust has settled, are you ready to accept the fact that Kobe>Lebron?

Dumb ass niggers

I’m a Lebron hater and I really thought he’d get 50 wins and an MVP this year with that roster, I mean that’s the same core that won 35 last year and he has to be at least 15 wins or so if he’s meant to be the GOAT.

I’m gonna have to shit on his legacy now since he ruined my Lakers

Nope

>you’re gonna miss the entire league revolving around one player who loses every year
Why? There will always be a hyped up prospect to fail and laugh at. When he retires it won’t mean as much as Wade, Kobe, Reggie Miller, Dirk or other all stars who gave everything they had to their franchise or Shaq and Chuck who had dominating personalities.

Lebron was uncharismatic and his legacy is players constantly seeking better teams and teammates.

i'm glad that noones really talking about Luka getting dropped, thanks Kuzma

Becuse his skill set will never be matched

He was bigger, stronger and faster than everyone. We already get to watch Giannis dominate in the East. There’s not much to see now that his athleticism is diminished and he can’t get to the rim without a full head of steam.

So the Lakers are fucked, right? What do they do this offseason?

So who's going to the Clippies this offseason, Kawhi or KD?

Only good thing about this season is I don’t have to hear anything more from those insufferable “never doubt Lebron/any team with Lebron on it is a contender” faggots, since they signed Lebron I’ve questioned every move by the front office. Rajon Rondo? Lance Stephenson? Javale McGee? Michael Beasley? The reason you sign veterans with a young roster like the Lakers is you want guys who can produce consistently since your young guns will be erratic on both ends.

What about that list of players screams competency at anything? There’s a reason Javale was unsatisfied with his role on GS and couldn’t beat out Zaza for the starting nod when Pachulia was healthier. Lance was bounced around the league like a common whore and only any good in that first stint with the Pacers where he lost his role to Evan Turner.

Rondo? Really, your solution to a starting point guard that can’t make a bunny is Rajon Rondo?

The biggest problem of all of course is the leader, shit rolls down hill always. How fucking embarrassing is it for Lebron to have his defensive assignment pointed out to him by Kyle Kuzma?

Signed Michael Beasley just to pay the Clippers Zubac and a second to get rid of him.

This roster is ass, Lebron is ass, Magic is a legit nigger.

>Zubac after the Clips took care of business vs. the Knicks: "That's how we gotta be. When I was with the Lakers, we didn't have nights like this. Every game was a close game for us, but now with the Clippers, this team is really locked in, every possession against every team."

check pm's

Heard it

One of my friends is a Lakers fan and he was legitimately excited about Beasley and told me he was going to be one of the best bench players in the NBA. Thing is, he says this about literally anyone the Lakers sign.

Fucking almost sit his pants when they got KCP saying he was a Kobe mold.

Kobe is a corpse
He would move like dirk nowadays

why does every basketball mixtape video have people yelling THAT NIGGA DIFFERENT THAT NIGGA DIFFERENT

They didn't even need to trade Zubac to get rid of Beasley, they could have just waived him, or waited 20 something games till the season was over. And it couldn't have been to clear up a roster spot, because they haven't filled it yet. Even if they did desperately want to trade Zubac (which makes zero sense because they are a complete black hole at center without him), they could have gotten something better than Muscala, who they barely even play anyways. There's no angle whatsoever you can spin the Zubac trade that makes it make some sort of sense at all. That alone proves they have absolutely zero idea, like really zero, about how to run a front office.

It's like they completely forgot the reason they signed Tyson Chandler in the first place (who is complete garbage scoring 3 points a game) was because they have no fucking centers, and then they randomly trade their best one away. Literally braindead, but I guess when Zubac is your best center and this even matters this much, you suck anyways

I think the Lakers should trade LBJ to NOLA, if he wants to play with AD so bad. They take their top 2 other guys and their first round spot this year and clear up enough cap space to fight for a nice free agent this off season.

You only trade LeBron if you have at least 1 other star guaranteed signing with the Lakers.

Reminder that the Lakers are making the playoffs, Adam Silver wills it

>slightly harder
Teams with losing records make the playoffs every year in the East and the one guy that steamrolled that shit conference came out west and is missing the playoffs all together. The only way the East changes this narrative is if a team from there without LaBron James wins a title which hasn't happened IN OVER A DECADE.

I really thought that there was no way he let them lose the Suns or Clippers games but I guess the lakers are so bad not even rigged calls can save them

The Lakers should just tank for Zion.

Doesn't the bottom 3 teams have the same percentage for the #1 pick?

you can even take that further, only two non LaBron teams from the east have won the title this century and the total games win loss for East vs West in the finals is West 72 wins and the East 42. To be fair the East was on a good run in the 90s but that was just one player too winning it all.

Japanese baseball lottery would be better for the NBA than pure random. I don't think the current system needs to be changed for hockey or football because the tanking incentive isn't the same.

In japanese baseball lottery rules, every team gets one "bid" they can use, every player is randomly given to one of his bidding teams. If the league really thinks Zion is a generational talent, maybe he gets like 20 bids. Maybe it wouldn't be that many. It's a game of chicken, and if you think everyone's gonna pick Zion the other top guys are great value.

Collusion could work with teams that want lower ranked guys (we know we both scout the shit out of A and B, we bid for A, you bid for B) but it shouldn't be a factor with the top stars.

After the bidding phase is over and the top players are assigned to their teams, everyone else finishes the draft in normal reverse record order. If you're the Warriors your pick is pretty worthless if you don't get someone from the bidding phase, if you're the Knicks it's fine, so the better teams should back off the stars a little.

They're all over San Antonio. Also, Chanclas are for hitting kids to make them listen.

What kind of hair transplant is LeBron using? It doesn't work very well since he keeps balding.

Can you imagine if they actually DID do it? What exactly needs to happen? How many games would they need to win of the remaining 18? Also lets assume the Clippers fuck up and start slipping for some reason, maybe losing half of their remaining games. Then what?

It's specifically used to wear on your feet.

(((David Stern))) gets angry mean and defensive when asked about the various NBA criminal conspiracies because he is completely innocent and pure of conscience

They get swept by the warriors

do they actually trim his hair on his HBO show?

watching Lebron literally needing to beg physically shoved into a playing Defende is a pretty good summarization of L3-6ron as a Competitor.

I watched how the NBA praised him instead of letting him prove his worth. The NBA adapted to Lebrons style of play instead of Lebron adapting to the league's style of play.

As a former coach, it has always killed me to watch lebron use his off arm and shove his way to the hoop. Fundamentals teach you to guard the ball, but as soon as you raise the arm towards a defender.. It's a charge. While his fans, along with the NBA were so impressed with his physique they failed to realize that basketball was a game of skill. Just because lebron is bigger than your average guard it does not mean he can run him over. Power is designed for the power forward who uses his strength in the post. Had the NBA forced lebron to drive the right way, he would either become finesse or develop a mid range game..which are his weaknesses.

People love to mention "if you take lebron off this team"... Notice how Lebrons team run the lebron system.. Of course if you take him off the team they will suck. If lebron played in a system where it maximizes each players talent they can win without him.. (spurs, GS, Boston)..

It so sad to compare him to Jordan and watch him lose. Is it not tiring to say he has no help? He's had 16 season to build chemistry with his own Pippen.. Or maybe he's not the player your mind wanted him to be. A few players will pass greats in added/ over time numbers. What counts are season by season: how many titles, how many scoring, rebounds, assist titles do you have? Let's not omit DEFENSE!!.. DPOY, defensive first team and lastly, how do you protect the ball... Turnovers... Don't let the media persuade you. Lebron is a sparkless piece of shit.

LeChoke is incapable of accepting his failures with grace which is why he will never be GOAT. He blames his teammates and aviods personal blame at all costs.

James at the end of the '15 finals whined about losing, going so far it made it not worth having the opportunity to win if one lost. He complained about a lack of talent--no praise for Mozgov who had a monster series or Thompson who had a monster series on the glass. No praise for JR Smith being the one player on the Cavs that went down fighting after he, himself waved the white flag. James is a great player, but there is more to being the best player than statistics.

Until recently Roger Federer was arguably the greatest Tennis player in history. Yet He has never made a comment remotely like what James has said after big losses. It is more than a lack of humility, it’s lack of spark, it is arrogance, pride, egoism and a whole lot of selfishness. James' comment in overriding his coach's play call ("Just give me the ball and get out of the way.") is indicative of his overall attitude. If your going to take on the weight of being the star player, coach and Manager of your team, you should be taking the responsibility for the L's too.

That's pretty weird.

Same chances Stern comes back and forces the Lakers to relocate to Tampa Bay to give Florida their third team and return Lebron to the East.

He legit has a barber carving up his hairplugs on his show and wears a durag after games for waves.

Real NBA fans have always hated LeFraud but now. He’s finally been exposed to the normies.

Life is good :)

>What kind of hair transplant is LeBron using?
I bet only four people know the truth about that. Him, his wife, his doctor, and his barber. There's also a decent chance he's told a close friend or two who also want shitty plugs. It also wouldn't surprise me if all but his wife had to sign a confidentiality agreement.

I’m glad the LeBron backlash is finally in full effect. Only thing sweeter would be him retiring in shame during the summer.

I think this might be the first time my Blazers have had zero injuries this season.
A win tonight gives them a 6-1 record on one of the longest road trips in the history of the franchise, 14 days

Sorry Grizzly bros but you're gonna get wrecked tonight.

>Only thing sweeter would be him retiring in shame during the summer.
it will never happen for the same reason he'll probably finish out this year, stat padding. It will be more fun if plays out the contract and takes his final form as one of the lowest fg% chuckers in the history of the league. If watching this dumpster fire was fun just wait until no top tier free agents come and all the youngsters all request trades. Hopefully we get three more years of the decline, it will be great.

The Lakers are so fucked for the next 6 years or so.

And thats a good thing

le ungrateful nigger man

Greeks are racist and xenophobic people
Of course he feels that way

Typical racist greek. This is why he doesnt identify with your people.

IS now the time for me to finally get into Basketball? I live in the middle of nowhere Wyoming and am originally from Kansas. I refuse to support a team from Colorado or from the trash heap that is known as Oklahomo.

Who do I follow?

Greek people legit hate foreigners more than anyone else because their country is the gateway into the West and has been invaded by foreign countries and refugees in waves for millennia.

I don't understand how somebody could have a greek first and last name and then reject greek culture. why doesn't he change his name to a nigerian name? they sound pretty cool and it's not like they're not everywhere

My Raptors are bout to win it all

on the off-chance you are not just pissing into the ocean that is post-/pol/ 4chinz, identity is hard and complicated. getting called a nigger by everyone and their mother while being a 6ft6 tall kid in greece peddling shit on the streets to tourists does things to your mind.

His last name is not Greek at all

>IS now the time for me to finally get into Basketball?

Probably not. The next few years are going to be a down period for basketball. Come back around 2022.

i don't want to believe you're this mentally limited.

dude it is one of the most common statements of the ancient greeks that a Greek is he who receives Greek education.

this on the one hand shows the significance of greek education for them, but it also is an unbiased statement on who can be called a greek.

antetokoumpo was singing the national anthem with diaspora on his rookie year and declining to sign on the greek flag because he said that you should keep the flag as it is.

hes more greek than many greeks

the middle 3 guys + meyers leonard cost 50 mil combined.

you can get better players for 50 mil

And yet hes only now seen as a greek because of his ultra popularity.

He would be considered 100% Nigerian by most greeks if he sucked.

By this time next year they'll be booing him again because he demanded a trade to another team

Playoffs will start soon so watch the games where teams are fighting for playoff spots and also watch the teams trying to play spoiler. Look for teams that are fun to watch and players who you connect with.
Don't pick a team right away and just watch for a bit and get used to different styles of play. The box scores are helpful but never tell the whole story, there's tons of stat-paders that don't impact the game as much as they think they do. When you find a team or two you like look into the team culture because it means everything. Average teams with winning culture are more fun to follow that teams with no culture like the Cavs and Lakers.

Damian Lillard is better than Kyrie Irving.

they died from butt plugs

He's so good

>loeterally blames teammates for losses in post game press
who did he blame

Outsider here, it seems like the fact that he embarrasses the name Giannis the way he does says a ton about how he feels about his upbringing. If he changes his name to Hakeem or some shit though I would start to question it a bit.

They were chanting Kobe last night and thats probably gonna happen the rest of the season

>he embarrasses the name Giannis the way he does

does he, though.

on a somewhat related note, i can guess your stance on kneeling vs. standing during the national anthem.

Oh hey friends

What do you guys think the Boston Celtics will do about the toxic environment within the team?

Lakers fans are dumb as fuck. They acted like they won a championship and were sucking LeBron's cock last summer. Now they're chanting for Kobe. They should be happy LeBron decided to sign with that shit show of a franchise.

Fire someone that isn't Danny Ainge, the real problem.

Lebron in Miami was a beast. When he concentrates on being a scorer, I can get behind him. He bulldozes his way to the rim, throws down alley oops and shoots fadeaways in iso’s. What’s not to love about that?

His passing mentality is the reason why Laker fans want Kobe. They want to see a guy who can take over games and score at will. Lebron can do that. I don’t know why he doesn’t just stop passing.

Kyrie leaving would be a blessing in disguise.

How badly are my Rapties going to kill the Cockshits?

If I'm the Lakers I'm not happy.

LeBron is using the back end of his career to take up a giant 40mil per year cap space for the next 4 year so he can play 0 defense and make TV shows and movies.

LeBron is USING the Lakers and not the other way around. He's a cancer that further makes it difficult for the Lakers to rebuild after they just traded away 3 years worth of 1st round picks from the 7 previous years of tanking

70pt blowout

not him but they should stand

My rapties are absolute frauds. We’re getting blown out by 5

I'm sorry but what? LeBron isn't taking up shit in cap space. The Lakers have room to max 2 players this summer. The Lakers could have very well been in playoff contention this year if Magic did his job correctly with building the roster. LeBron is capable of much more but he's not going to waste his energy on this piss poor team of overrated 20 year olds.

Trust me, these lakeshits will get a free agent this summer and LeBron is gonna be LeBron again.

LeBron will never have a official day given to him by LA

Stupid dumb lakeshit scum

No one of any significant inelegance is going to that clown and circus show in LA when the Nets, Clippers, and even fucking Knicks are better run and less LeBron toxin surrounding them.

Meyers is the 11th guy off the bench right now and a contract casualty of that shitty summer when most contracts were massively inflated. Evan Turner got one too but he's playing really well all season. Meyers has been very good in spot duty this year and a lot of energy but no where near his contract price.
CJ can shoot lights out off the dribble as well as spotting up and that makes him very valuable, most shooters are one or the other, Klay for example almost never dribbles, just sits in a spot and waits. CJ can also create his own shot anywhere on the floor and if Dame missed a lot of games in a row CJ could fill in just fine and thats saying a lot. 25 mil is a lot but Blazers need to overpay a few guys.
SF/PF they need an upgrade at one of these spots but for now and as long as Harkless is engaged they do pretty good especially on D. I'd feel better paying Mo like Aminu though.
Aminu has improved every year, his ft% is an indicator of the time he puts in, up to 85% now and at less than 7mil is a deal.

Laker fans want the Lebron in Miami not the one of the Cavs. The one in Miami won 2 rings coming very close to one more whereas the Cavs Lebron just won one apart from being swept.

Fuck off GoWiz

>>le i'm gonna stay in portland forever!!!! man
Legacy matters, ask the ring chasers how they feel
All Dame has to do is deliver one chip to Portland before he retires and he will be the greatest in the history of the franchise. He'll own every record and will be a legend here until he dies.

that was a typo, should have read embraces the name Giannis, not embarrasses

>He bulldozes his way to the rim
He doesn't do much of this any more though. In an absloute must win game last night he had a 6'1" journey man guarding him most of the game and just settled for long jumpers most of the time. The version of Lebron you like is mostly dead now outside of a few plays a game.

Kobe will never have a strong enough X gene

Wtf when did Harden start taking roids? He was always skinny-fat

And he'll get his number retired.

Yeah, he doesn't, and neither does the person in your unrelated pic.

definitely and the Hall Of Fame as well.

The Cleveland LeBron that averaged

>35.8pts/13.3reb/8.8ast
>29.7pts/11.3reb/8.9ast/2.3blks/2.9steals
>33.6pts/12reb/10ast
>34pts/8.5reb/10ast

In each of his finals appearances.

You realize in 2015, Kyrie Irving and Kevin Love were injured for the finals? In 2016 the Cavs beat the 73 win Warriors from a 1-3 deficit. And then in 2017 and 2018 the 73 win Warriors replaced Harrison Barnes with Kevin Durant. Of course he couldn't win. Not any of Kobes or Jordan's teams or even Miami LeBron teams could beat those Warriors.

ah cool, i apologize for my now baseless assumption.

...

No he was always built. He's built like a barrel and has a wide rib cage. He has the silhouette of a fat guy but he's probably one of the strongest guards in the league.

easy mistake and I need to proof read better

It’s that 9-10 assists numbers that make me less inclined to want that Lebron. Lebron makes such a high percentage of his shots, can you imagine if he shot 5 more shots every game, never mind that one time he did in the playoff.

He would easily be averaging MJ’s points in the regular season. When you have a greater scorer on your team you always have a chance especially if that player is Lebron who can directly counteract Durant’s scoring.

Maybe he and that athleticism is gone. But, he is still quite a good driver of the ball. Can finish with both hands. Kobe in 12/13 was driving more than he was in 11/12. He can start doing high post ups. Maybe he can’t do that in today’s league. He can start setting picks and rolling towards the basket. Start actually playing like a center. Something, Anything to just get him to scoring positions again and again.
