**LA LAKERS THREAD** Sitting on 17! 2023-2024 offseason begins

[fayetnam]

This game is prime example why Lebron ain’t it. This dude at age 34 is giving no effort and acting like a brat who didn’t get their way so they become disinterested and disengaged

Kobe at age 34 was carrying the likes of Earl Clark, Chris duhon, Darius Morris, Dwight Howard gay ***, and Steve Blake to the playoffs. Kobe was busting his *** because he realized the importance of every game. At this same point the lakers were 25-29 and out of the playoffs. Was Kobe crying? Nah, he took it upon himself to carry this team

Lebron.. this ***** *** ***** is crying and demanding to bring in another star or he don’t wanna play. Lmao ship this dude back for Clarkson and nance ... I’ll even throw in 4 firsts

Lance just left mo on the floor lmao

Lakers are nothing without LeBron. Stop.

 

[titang545]

Sigh we DONE. Dudes knocking the ball out fighting amongst each other. Thankfully our next game is Thursday once the trade deadline is over.

 

[MVP]

Lakers are nothing without LeBron. Stop.

We're nothing WITH him either

 

[titang545]

This has the potential to get really ugly going forward. Especially if no trade is made. Broken team.

I don't even know how you recover from this IF nobody is traded.

 

[SORIANOTRON]

DAWG WE AINT EVEN MAKING THE PLAYOFFS.

Gotta say, the young guys been a little disappointing this season as far as helping lebron carry the load and dropping some very winnable games....

Big part of why LJ came here was so the younger legs could carry him but its just not happening.

Season might be a complete failure if we miss the playoffs, def not getting out of the first round with this squad.

The inability to hit the 3 ball killing us all year.

Bron probably could have stayed in CLE and got to the finals again.....

not looking good.

He had them in great position before he got hurt.

Them young ****** hate Bron now man

 

[MVP]

Lol at it being just him. See this is why I'll never rock with dude.

What did they do last year without him?

 

[MVP]

What did they do last year without him?

Not make the playoffs with Zo and BI missing significant time. This is why some of us were lamenting early on in the season when the young guys were playing really good and he's out there being passive and not closing games. We're now going to miss the playoffs with him missing significant time so what was the point really?

 

[titang545]

Guys acting like LeBron ain't lose games for us this year and he been MVP level.

 

[drewsone]

Injuries definitely had its impact too

Not just from Bron but the entire team

And yes there were games Bron didn’t close but there were games where he did too

More than one person can be at fault no one saw Bron popping his groin on a non contact play lol

but even tho I root for the guy I think he milked his injury

I like being right but I hate to be right about this. I knew when I heard he was coming to the Lakers this would happen. The guy hasn't been the same since Miami, he slowly declined but not substantially. He started saving himself for the playoffs, giving less and less effort during the season. As we see this year that level of effort doesn't work in the west, perhaps dudes can put some respect on Kobe's name. He was doing this in the west his whole career without pouting and trying to work behind the scenes.

 

[Maximus Meridius]

Been telling y'all we ain't making the playoffs for like 2 weeks now. Too many injuries on a team that already had flaws.

 

[sohi 23]

U can’t even count on Zo to play more than 50 games a year lol

 

[BIG LEEMELONE]

Send him back to Ohio

 

[WAKKO!]

This lose couldn’t have come at a worse time, magic about to panic

 

[drewsone]

4 picks it is

 

[Maximus Meridius]

Thought this team was more mentally tough than this. This is the perfect storm for drama and BS. Trade not go through, team gets blown out by 1k points.

 

[3god]

Crazy that these young guys grew up loving LeBron, and now hating him

WHOA. I ain't carrying NOBODY when they making $154 million, we can share this damn load. The young core has been disappointing but so has LeBron. If LeBron stayed in the east he wasn't getting to the finals, Leonard would of shut that **** down, Celtics with Kyrie, or Giannis would of cut all that out.

He had them in great position before he got hurt.

Uh they had one of the easiest first halves of the season man, they weren't really in that great of a position.

Concur we had basically an entire young core playing and made some rookie mistakes last year. We were in a lot of games last year against good teams, but didn't have a leader. I think we lost maybe 14 winnable games last year, which would of put us at 49 wins. That does include if guys weren't hurt. We have 28 more games and are sitting at 27 wins, everyone said LeBron will add at least 15 wins right, that ain't happening.

Yooo

Wtf is this
