Lebron wouldn’t be having these problems if he would’ve signed with the Sixers
brian harley big fax no printer
And he would’ve destroyed that team
I think it’s the other way around. The lakers is regretting lebron joined.
jimmicrackhead12 I agree facts
My Dumass – no Dumbass
Nice joke
mark Saunders y’all need to make y’all mind up lol first Lebron is there because of movies now he’s running the team now he’s toxic because kd said so even tho KD was talking about the media not him idk
This team would have been better without lebron
The real problem was LBJ thought Paul George and other FA at the time we’re gonna flock to LA because he was there. 2nd Magic said in the summer they’d get another superstar once free agency hit then turned around and started trying to do everything THIS season instead of letting LBJ get chemistry with their other young guys who could/are turning out to be pretty damn good. Problem now is everyone hearing about him secretly talking with other players and saying how he’d like to play with this/that guy is very disrespectful to guys on his team who are working their assess off and if they didn’t feel disrespected then, they sure as hell do now after hearing that the Lakers we’re gonna basically trade them away just to bring in a guy LBJ wanted. They should’ve just stuck with plan and waited til free agency and if LBJ was planning something with AD he should’ve just said come free agency I’LL SEE YOU IN LA then LBJ & AD could’ve just sucked it up and not cause any distractions with their current teams. Now AD who thought he’d end up in LA will probably get shipped elsewhere intentionally by his team just so he doesn’t end up a Laker and neither player gets their way.
Bam Bam the problem with waiting for AD to be a free agent is that Lebron is getting old and he can’t wait another year for AD ya know. But I agree with most of what you said bro
George Harry you say that as if the lakers could actually beat them in a 7 game series?
Zhyon Flowers they could if they play well enough. But ya basically everyone would have to make their shots every game and play incredible defense.
Bam Bam facts!! They were supposed to wait for AD’s contract to be up….now they not getting AD and AD bout to get sent somewhere he doesn’t want to be for another year. Not very smart on Magic’s/LBJ/Rich Paul’s part
+George Harry you clearly haven’t watched much basketball if you think a sorry team like the Lakers being up 10 vs a great team like warriors means anything. 1st of all great teams that know they’re going to win the championship don’t really care about the regular season they just try to win enough to be a high seed in the playoffs and 2nd they know they can make comebacks against weak teams. I remember the Bulls in the 90s use to do that get behind in the game and by the 3rd only be down a little and the 4th take over and win the game. same with the spurs when they were winning championships they would start off slow then go on 10 game winning streaks then 15 in a row and before you knew it they were in 1st place. so whether a regular season game or the season great teams will take it easy and then turn it up.
Lebron sold his entire team out! For one player! It doesn’t matter how good AD is, it’s shameful to know that Lebron and Magic have made it known that they’re willing to gut the whole team for one player. And how does the team respond to that? Lose by 42 points.
Why would anyone want to play for Lebron after seeing how he treats his own teammates?
So Sa that explains him sitting at the end of the bench
Lebron loves playing in trash teams.
Ironically, these trash teams often gets overhauled by acquiring star players
so why not just go into strong teams the same way KD did?
No need to kick players, no need to play with puppet coaches, no need to compromise team chemistry.
Lebron James: I’ll go to a trash team so I can prove that I am so good I can carry it to the finals
might have worked in the east lol
So Sa if he stopped acting like he’s a gm. we would stop holding him accountable .
What were you expecting to happen? Everyone that actually watches the nba knew the team was going to get traded eventually
+mbp85 throw what team under the bus? Thats why all those former cavs players respect bron and always come to his defense. U dont know shit
Im a Lakers fan….trade Lebron for Davis.
+With The Quickness lebron is NOT eligible for a no trade clause in his current Lakers contract. Now go read your comment again and see how stupid you look ???
Great idea that shit would humble the fuck out of him
Oh the irony if that happened.
That would hurt Lebron James Pride so much ?
+DGames so its lebrons fault the lakers are trash? Lmao go learn about basketball then comeback and comment. Fake ass lakers fan
Ingram averages more points than Tatum. Lonzo averages more assists…
Tatum also plays with way better players Kyrie, Horford, Brown, Morris
Lebron Kuzma Rondo Zubac better than those u mention In that order
Literally the dumbest place he could of went, if winning more rings was his goal.
Ohio is overall a much better place to live than California and this is coming from someone who has lived in Cali all his life. +Conner moran
Gabriel Arnett my dad forgot an nbas players job was to help homeless
+joey zapata depending on your lifestyle though. I agree, me personally can live in the county sides of OH. And be great for life! But others may think differently of the 2.
Don’t get me wrong, I love Cali but if I were pick a spot to raise a family, Ohio would be way high one the list over Cali. +BlueOval You
+joey zapata I agree with that.
This is going to Lebron’s worst decision joining LA and he will have 0 championships with Lakers
Kalicharan Yalala it hasn’t even been 1 season yet
I think at his age he doesnt care as much as people think. He went to LA to set himself for his post playing days. He wants to be in the billionaire status and LA can help him get there.
LeBrons only hurting himself.
its not about championships its about money because it is a buisness. lebron net worth is higher then the top 5 starters on gsw combined. lebron already won. the gsw players taking pay cuts and all that shit. they cant ball forever and that tech investment shit aint shit lol. lebron has his own shows and such. hes winning. anyone in the league taking less money to try and join gsw is losing. lebron will always be mention more no matter how many rings these other guys win.
Cortney Plummer sort of my guy
He regrets coming to the west ???
LaLLUMINATI yup
Let me remind you they are 4th place in thecwest until lebron got injured don’t be such a jerk
Ur mom regrets coming out and giving birth to u
What happened sas you jumping off the bandwagon?What about the conferance finals ? Lol
Lebron made a business decision and not a basketball decision
THIS.
exactly
True af
Lebron’s gonna trade you all watching or reading this. Man I Love Lebron but damn, only Lebron could manage turning the lakers into another Cleveland ?
Greg Russell in the east it ain’t gonna work in da west
Anthony Lim and got swept and dicked down
Greg Russell……. THIS AINT THE WEAK ASS JV EASTERN CONFERENCE!!!!
+Versace the Great It doesn’t matter, they still won with a historic comeback!
Fuck lebron
More like “Do the lakers regret signing Lebron?”
Cause they were so good last year
U lebron haters are atrocious
Lakers is 4th place in the west until lebron got injured so lakers are not regreting for signing lebron cause they are better with him.
I am a Lakers fan since 79 and I dont want him here
+BackBoard To Basket to the clippers when and the last time they were relevant
More proof LeBron doesn’t make his teammates better. LeBron James has never won a championship without multiple all stars . Please stop comparing this clown to Jordan
+will Hancock Even European teams can beat Lebron’s all star team LMAO
What player has won a championship without multiple allstars? People forget that basketball is a team sport and a championship can’t be won by a player no matter how great or competive they are.
Rodman and pippin…
+Zzzzz Walks How many did he win as a lone star?
+CT G Scottie Pippen DEVELOPED into an all star and because they were always into the finals he DEVELOPED into a HOF status
Lebron’s all star were already all stars when they joined Lebron.
Pippen was a nobody when he joined Jordan.
Why nobody roast Magic? He acts like a mad shopper and sells his own young core…
Magic is in wayyy over his head. Never been a GM before but constructing a great team requires near perfect execution from now on.
+Tivo Kenevil letting those players go was way before Bron. Why can’t you people be objective and admit Magic has handled things poorly too. He could have gotten PG, how did that turn out ?
+swag lad LeBron got Chandler there using his connections in Suns
Nigga LeBron got roasted on Twitter all day the other day. Lmaoooooo that’s why he backed out the deal, he saw too many ppl making valid points why the trade offer was garbage ?
Why nobody roast your peasant shango ass
Stop blaming the young guys hold lebron accountable he’s not leading …he’s just praying on another superstar to save him …or blame magic for desperately offering everyone up even after hearing pelicans say they will not do business with them .. if the lakers go empty handed it’s lebrons fault no player wants to be apart of shit like this he’s toxic like KD said let’s be real the young core is good and if lebron played within the system they would all have better numbers but lebron numbers would dip but he clearly doesn’t want to sacrifice that because he’s only for himself
He’s been injured dude! Can’t blame James
Obviously he regrets it and his teammates feel it. The chemistry on the team is trash
Facts. I read Denver offered him a deal but declined !!
Preston Chandler ……what young players ??? Simmons and embiid ??
+King Kong Aint Got Shit On Me why so he can dismantle that team because Simmons the point guard lebron will have to play off the ball when Simmons in the game so lebron would be non existant like he was at the beginning of the year with the lakers
He knew what it was before he got there….
Go over yourself..like you know something….+imsljr420
Lebron must hate Tom Brady ..he plays in a different sport and is being compared to MJ
+Dadasha
Damn bronsexuals are sensitive as fuq
Why would you go so far
Brady is clutch and so is MJ. Lebron not so much!
+osamabindrinkin40s L
+sphere 528 and ur a hater
+Dadasha stop gaggin hard on Lebrons dick u queer bronsexual
lebron realizing that magic johnson the point guard =/= magic johnson the GM
Lebron’s environment has always been toxic. KD said it best
Thank you, Max
Fuck you snake
