Not really agreeing or disagreeing that LeBron is bigger than the Lakers but what does that actually mean?

There is no way people here think Bron isn’t 100% responsible for any and all of that team’s success. People aren’t going there because Rob Lowe is in the FO

Not really a quantifiable thing but you just feel it. The same way we're having the same conversation about the brand of the Lakers, it can be had for Bron. I just think Bron is the single most important thing in basketball.
Totally fair and IDK everything about their lives, but the line I would have to cross for me to come out sideways against my mother is WAY WAY out there. But that's me applying my personal beliefs and circumstances.

That Gordo Hayward segment this thread took was nasty. Never would’ve thought he would’ve got so much attention and coverage

Facts, she's been running around like a sket. Then she's going on radio shows bragging about being with this Ball player and this rapper.

Because the Lakers are different from every other team. That ain't even flexing that's just facts. We know this. Y'all know the Lakers have biggest fan base by far, y'all know Laker fans are extreme and over the top.
All these all-time greats have helped the Lakers brand become what it is. Magic leaves and the brand kept building and winning, Shaq leaves kept building and winning with Kobe. Hit a trash period and back at the top again with Bron and AD. You can't compare the Lakers with other teams, no team has this track record.

This is what I thought
. The Lakers being bigger than just about every other team in all of sports is quantifiable and not really the same thingWhy weren't people saying this when he went to Miami thoThere is no way people here think Bron isn’t 100% responsible for any and all of that team’s success. People aren’t going there because Rob Lowe is in the FO
. Pat riley was getting hella credit for that

What basis are you using for that? The Chips? Or the Money?This is what I thought
Why weren't people saying this when he went to Miami tho
Cause other teams have more chips than the Lakers do and if its the money...

On two separate instances, LeBron has propped up the economy of an entire city.

So winning was in the cards because teams saw them as winning players. Again whether it's them together or flipping 'em. They was able to do what they had to do to win. It ain't like they just traded a bunch of Kwame Browns.
This thread and some media folks thought the Lakers "gave up the house!!".

Isn't that home?
49ers will play December home games in Cardinals' stadium after Santa Clara County halts all sports
San Francisco has home games on Dec. 7 and 13

Consistent success + popularity + value. Lakers are in a league of their own. So if LeBron is bigger than that..how?

Agian them not me. I was very vocal about the fact that I didn't value these players that highly. I was when they were Lakers still am now with the exception of Ingram, but wasn't and still am not on the "Next KD wagon" Everyone else is bad.So winning was in the cards because teams saw them as winning players. Again whether it's them together or flipping 'em. They was able to do what they had to do to win. It ain't like they just traded a bunch of Kwame Browns.

Difference of opinion then.
I deem LeBron to be pretty successful and I personally couldn't care less about championships that predate me being alive. This is a wash to me honestly.
Popularity. Not quantifiable but I think LeBron is more popular than the Lakers.
Value. I think Bron's value is harder to amass being that he's a person as opposed to a corporate entity but again opinion based.
Its not worth going back and forth over but I'm rolling with Bron over anything else basketball related in terms of importance.
