NBA 2024-25 NBA Season

[Filthy Dangles]

Just wait until Bronny comes in and leads the Lakers to the NBA Final.

That dude couldn’t lead an AAu team to a championship

yes, 2013-2018 was the worst stretch in lakers franchise history. no big name FA was willing to sign with them until lebron

You mean they couldn't buy a championship. I would say Lebron wasn't much of a rescue. It was more about having the spotlight on him/access to Hollywood/being considered a Laker great, which he won't be..

A month ago, the media had the Lakers going to the WCF. Now they are in a downfall and it’s ’well, lakers need more pieces’.

Which one is it then?

Lebron deserves to be on a losing team considering he always jumps ship when his team has exhausted every possible dollar and asset to make him happy.

He will go down as the greatest ball hog of all time.

isn't that the whole point of free agency? he absolutely rescued the franchise. the lakers were going nowhere before he signed

could've been better if lebron and pelinka hadn't blown up a title winning team to bring westbrick in

You know, I could probably miss 75 3s too. I look forward to my 5 yr $50 million any day now

imagine paying to go watch two bad teams just chucking up 3 after 3

Embiid with his third broken face and now McCain, probably leading the pack for RotY, needs meniscus surgery.



Someone needs to start sacrificing live chickens or something to get this curse on the Sixers lifted.

Did they win a title, yes but there were circumstances. They played 20 less games had a break did a seating tournament and won. Would have been a lot different if they played 82 and won it. I think The Lakers caught lightning in a bottle more than they were a true caliber contender.

yeah, that's just pure cope. they were #1 in the west at the time of the shutdown and had just beaten the bucks and clippers in back to back games. not to mention they were the 3rd best defensive team in the league. you could maybe make that argument for miami, but the lakers were a top 3 team all season

We both know regular season means nothing. Were they good, yes, but that last 20 games is when teams start turning it up for the playoffs. One off games don't mean anything to a 7 game series. Their chip is between a NBA cup and a real chip.

2 of Lebron 4 championships came from shortened season.

and if your team had won, you'd be calling it the hardest championship ever

like i said, pure cope

My team did win when GS were all injured and we had Leonard for 1 season. I know if GS was healthy we wouldn't have even won a game. History books will mark it as a chip but it's not like we defeated one of the greats at full strength.

If Toronto won in the bubble I would have been the first one to say "yeah, but". Short cuts are short cuts no matter who takes them and for what reason...........like only going to teams who can afford to buy championships.

lebron took a shortcut joining a lakers team that had been one of the worst teams in the league for 5 seasons prior?

did you expect the highest profile player in the league to have signed with the hornets or pistons?
