Did people really think that this guy would make it to the playoffs this year because he is a Laker?
Have they not heard of chemistry and/or self awareness?

Luke Perez
Lincoln Evans
point is lebron's the goat and michael is not. on and off the court lebron is better than that boomer psycho
Ethan Cruz
>all around me are familiar faces
Connor Martin
as soon as he did this dance, I knew what to expect, user.
rest assured, we got next year in the bag
Elijah Lopez
that bench isn’t enough.
they need Paul George and Kawhi Leonard.
Ethan Green
ahem.
Cameron Morgan
You know, if they had Lonzo, they’d be in a lock for the 8th seed at least.
David James
I actually think the Lakers weren’t making it to the playoffs this year. There’s just way too many good teams in the Western Conference that it felt like it would be impossible for LeBron to even have a chance this season. But come next year, they should be in the playoffs for sure.
Jack Gonzalez
he’s not joining them.
plus didn’t they fine both LeBron and the Lakers management for tampering rules?
no way AD will go to the LA.
Kevin Gonzalez
when you have headlines like this, you can’t be surprised at anything the NBA does anymore
Carter Foster
Kawhi probably doesn’t like LBJ that much.
Too much ego for him.
Jace Bell
AD to THUNDER.
CALLING IT
Nathan Wood
>LeBron James is making the playoffs this year because he is a Laker
who told you this and why did they lie to you?
Thomas Hill
kuzma is probably the only laker that cares at this point.
Wyatt Green
>contemplated
how can you contemplate trading the best player in the league?
Connor Peterson
>chemistry
>self awareness
umm this is the 2019 NBA.
Jackson Reed
if they had him, they’d probably struggle against the Clippers or the Kings with him the lineup.
that’s just my guess.
Luis Roberts
because he went behind the front office and tried to push an early trade for AD. you can maybe pull that crap on the shitty cavs but not the fuckin lakers
Colton Thomas
I’d like to see him on the Rockets. Him and Harden would be unstoppable.
Christian James
This is the reason why Lebron made it to the finals year after year.
The East had weaker competition. And I'm questioning the 50 win teams in teh East since they're just beating up the real bottom feeders 4 games each.
Pistons in 2000's Celtics in 2010, and Pacers were the only real teams Lebron had to face
Adam Johnson
Lakers Twitter isn't Yea Forums
Chase Davis
he did the same thing when they were playing against the Knicks.
and he got blocked by Hezonja for attempting the game winner.
kek.
Nicholas Wilson
overrated
Easton Robinson
mostly everyone that’s on social media is saying that he should be in the playoffs and win the championship.
in the real world, we still think LeBron is just getting old and is on the verge of not feeling hungry anymore.
it’s just the way of life, man.
Aiden White
>best player in the league
I don’t know what you’re talking about, but that tilte belongs to this guy now.
Ryder Ross
Only double digit IQ niggers on NBA Twitter think this way.
Ethan Russell
>Lakers
>playoffs
I don’t think they should have focused on the playoffs to begin with. They should have shown concern for the youth on the team, and try to get s couple 2nd round draft picks.
Angel Sanders
also LeBron and his management tried to fire the coach.
that might have something to do with it.
Kayden Ross
>me playing that song unironically while looking at lebron’s body posture
Aiden Morales
so it’s not Giannis?
Jayden Harris
paul george already said he wants to wait out and stay on the thunder. plus kawhi is already on a contending playoff team, and he’s going up against the bucks or celtics.
I don’t see the both of them leaving anytime soon.
Camden Jenkins
lebron is shit this year
LITERALLY a bum
Jacob Miller
HAIL HEZONJA
Xavier Diaz
this is the same guy who walks off court prematurely when he doesn’t have anymore fight against him. youtube.com
Don’t be too aghast.
Nicholas Russell
LeBron was too busy being a Hollywood actor to care about going to the playoffs with this team. I never would think he should be entitled to get a playoff spot because he’s on the Lakers.
He’s no Kobe.
Henry Clark
Julian Brown
Kobe carried a worse Lakers to the playoffs
LeBum is a hack
Alexander Clark
thing is him and the Lakers had chemistry during the first half of the season, but injuries still hurt both him and them.
also, they didn’t strike when the trade deadline was ongoing and it didn’t seem to look like they were going to the playoffs this year.
Matthew Young
LeBron thought this team was like the 2017 Cavs. He wanted to trade most of the bench away for star players. It’s not surprising to be honest.
Chase Thomas
even with him on the Lakers, they’d still be a long shot to win the championship.
after the Warriors crumble, then we can talk.
Alexander Fisher
I need to put this on a frame
Jacob Martinez
>eighth seed
only to then get swept if they made it in
Levi Murphy
Kevin Durant is going to go through the same thing LBJ went through, only minus the bandwagon business move
Mason Watson
Even with a team like this, LeBron probably would have been knocked out of the first round. Western Conference is built a bit differently this year.
Jaxon Turner
>WE WANT KOBE
Justin Kelly
Nice find dude that's a crazy stat
Nicholas Carter
if OKC keeps losing like they are and Lakers go on a tear to end the season we can still make the playoffs.
Julian Jenkins
Lakers have a lot more to go if they want to be a playoff like team. I’m more surprised to see LeBron fans not be as confident as they used to be, even when he was on the Heat.
Brayden Thompson
it’s between him, Giannis and Harden.
I’d give it to Harden.
Dylan Young
>trading LeBron
they’d probably put him on the Warriors.
don’t kid yourself.
Noah Evans
even with his angry face, the guy looks soft
Joshua Jackson
LeBron is getting old and tired. What did you expect OP?They would lose against the Clippers. Kings are still in rebuild mode.

Jeremiah Barnes
Standings show otherwise.
Kings have a better shot of being future playoff contenders to look out for than the Lakers.
Even with LeBron in the lineup.
Luis Smith
if this did happen, imagine these two on the Pelicans.
Elijah Campbell
I like how everyone went on about how they would be and then when they were fourth everyone was talking about WCF but after he got injured everyone flip flopped and is now pretending they knew all along
The obsession with LeBron is astonishing and you people are ESPN tier posters, KYS
Brandon Thomas
I feel bad for those three empty chairs.
Julian Torres
why does he act this way
Carter Watson
reminder that Lefraud has lost to almost every bottom feeding team in the eague
Levi Smith
I think this fight already predicted how we’d see the Lakers with LBJ youtube.com
David Bailey
I’m not sure why, but expect LeBron fans to not actually answer that question, and instead deflect by comparing playoff stats to Jordan in his prime.
Tyler Baker
WTF I LOVE THE NUGGETS NOW
Adrian Davis
Los Angeles Clippers
Christopher Ross
>mfw Timberwolves are a better version than the Lakers
Jose Thompson
Laker Nation hasn’t been the same since Shaq and Kobe retired.
LeBron knew what he was getting himself into when he inserted himself into that culture.
Logan Gutierrez
if LeBron was unhealthy, Lakers would have had a worse record than the Pelicans.
Oliver Rogers
I he hadn't been injured then he would have made the playoffs no matter what team he went to.
Owen Wilson
he's going to keep passing milestones and no one in LA will give a shit. should have stayed in Cleveland or even stayed in Miami. Same thing will happen to Durant.
Christian Stewart
He misses both wade and this guy for sure.
Brody Edwards
if it’s like this, expect the memes to be even better
John Lee
Well he also folded against real teams in the east. Tom Thibideau's bulls and that brief moment where the Orlando magic were getting the best of dwight howard and a bunch of spare part shooters around him were actually decent teams that gave lebron enough trouble that he folded.
Zachary Jones
>I want to play off the ball this year
>proceeds to not change his game at all
>dominates the ball 80% of the time
>all his teammates regress from last year
What was that about Lebron making everyone better?...
Henry Gray
New Orleans isn't trading him to LA.
So even if he finally joins the Lakers, it will be another year from now. Lebron will be fucking 36 years old before Davis can join him.
Kevin Myers
No he is not, you fucking fag.
Elijah Powell
He faced those Bulls teams once at full strength. Rose blew out his knee only their second season together, and they were a 60 win team that year.
Eli Evans
>73 win teams eliminated
Hudson Perry
>Smush Parker and fucking Kwame Brown
Dominic Lee
>Laker Nation hasn’t been the same since Shaq and Kobe retired
look on the bright side user
at least you don’t have to deal with this anymore
Julian Myers
he is a better team player than Kobe, but clutch wise, the Mamba still has it
Matthew Allen
I’m a Lakers fan and I didn’t think he was going to the Playoffs this year. Maybe NBA Twitter thought so, but they only care about top 10 highlights and fantasy trades, so there’s that.
Thomas Cox
NBA Reddit is much worse. They still will yell out “LEBRON HAS NO HELP”, and when he gets help, they’ll still find something to complain.
Juan Gonzalez
AD is getting traded to the Celtics in July, it's a foregone conclusion.
Even if AD turns down an extension in Boston, do you really think he'll go to a non playoff team in LA to play with a 36 year old Lebron? The Lakers are fucked
Justin Martinez
I was thinking the Lakers were about to tank to get a top 10 draft pick. We need to focus on the young players on the squad first before worrying about LeBron’s legacy.
Elijah Turner
Those missing seats represent his lost chances to win 3 more rings
Christian Bennett
so they wanted to trade LeBron last month because he messed with LA’s team chemistry?
I feel like Magic wants to keep him around just so he can end up being the GM over there in the future. That’s just my theory.
Jacob Morales
>when you’re more worried about this happening than him not going to the playoffs
Jordan Green
It was already proven that more people trust Jordan than LeBron as the greatest NBA player of all time.
Christopher Parker
By then, he's going to have the same amount of rings or even more.
Xavier Thomas
KD will have a sweet time running through teams in the next few years. If he goes to the East, then the matchups will be more interesting than the West.
James Foster
>space jam 2
First one wasn’t that good, so what’s to be worried about?
Ayden King
He should have been in “Uncle Drew” with Kyrie. I think he missed out on that.
Logan Bennett
>gif related
Space Jam 2 will recycle what made the original better, but with a better actor and lame soundtrack
Jeremiah Jones
this is the problem. it’s a common theme for most Laker fans. they think that getting enough big name superstars to come to the big cities will automatically qualify for a championship.
same thing can be said for NY and Chicago.
Aiden White
>kyrie
>rozier
>hayward
>ad
>horford
Grayson Gonzalez
What bag? The douche bag?
Jose Thompson
you lost Jimmy Butler and he made KAT cry.
what did you expect?
Anthony Carter
Kobe also doesn’t own a barbershop where he invites multi-millionaire net-worth athletes to talk about their oppression.
Jackson Allen
No they thought he would because he is Lebron. Anyone who thought otherwise did so because he was a Laker, the only team competing with Cleveland and Phoenix for the title of most inept
Hudson Brooks
the NBA would not lose sleep if there was going to be a Lakers-Warriors WCF matchup.
the overlords would give it to the DUBS every single time, and thinking LeBron would beat them again at his age is foolish.
Juan Barnes
Nolan Butler
That's the beauty (for lack of a better term) of the silver nba, unless a million things go wrong the refs are never needed
Stern had to force it almost every year, but Silver just sits back as 5 of the top 15 players being on one team get him the predetermined outcome he wants
Brandon Hall
This. Fuck boomers.
Gavin White
>le eyebrow man
Wyatt Brooks
>The D12 mega trade where every team involved lost
Besides that who thought trading a bunch of picks for a geriatric Steve Nash was a good idea (even taking the failed CP3 trade into account)?
>The only team competing with Cleveland and Phoenix for the title of most inept
You forgot the Knicks and Twolves
Henry Flores
You now remember Michael Jordan won another NBA Championship when the first Space Jam was released.
>LelBron can't even make the playoffs
>Muh Hollywood
Michael Morgan
Josiah Powell
>That Lakers pic
>When Dwight Howard mattered
>Before Howard fell in love with traps
Kobe was still based af.
Jeremiah Scott
This is fucking greatness, zoomers
Alexander Richardson
Now that LeBron's legacy is finished, who is the next guy they'll try to push?
Tyler Sanchez
Harden
Henry Hernandez
My money's on Giannis
Matthew Bell
>The absolute state of Lakers fans
Matthew Watson
LeBron will never be better than Michael fucking Jordan.
Gavin Gutierrez
This is what happen when the King abdicates. The dude is in semiretirement.
Why he didnt go somewhere to be a contender against the Warriors, who knows. If he had pulled that off it would have sealed his legacy. He couldve saved the league, or at least made this season interesting.
Lucas Jones
literally all he had to do was go to the sixers. not only would he have won at least a couple chips, he would have become a philly sports legend. all because it isn't sunny enough there and he needs to be with his film production companies.
Nathaniel Garcia
Oh it could have gone down a lot of ways. Lebron could have gone the fucking Wizards and brought them to the finals.
Bentley Sanders
Long live the King James II
Mason Bailey
DEATH TO ZOOMER SCUM mj da goat
