The rest of the NBA is getting afraid. Motivated LeBron + Luka with something to prove? Look out.
The idea of LeBron teaching Luka how to be a pro is pretty damn exciting.

And I feel like he might really take to the idea.

Man, I really want to see these guys get Williams or Sharpe to give themselves a legitimate big. I don't THINK they can win it with that roster...but I'm not convinced they CAN'T.

People can hate on LeBron all they want, but there should be zero questions about his conditioning, dedication, nutrition, etc.

He’s second to none and that’s why he’s played as long as he has. The gifts only go so far if you don’t take care of them.

Shawn Kemp was as athletic as anyone at one time. Dude ended up fat as **** by the end.

Agreed. I feel like the Mailman was a piece of shit to but damn that dude was fit until the end.

I don't like Lebron. Never have. But his dedication to staying fit is on par with any athlete in any sport ever. He and Brady are a gold standard in that regard.

It certainly can't HURT to have that around Luka.

It's a really fascinating experiment. This could be the kind of thing that convinces the guy to play for a couple more years.

I'll actually root for them despite my hate for Lebron and the Lakers, because Luka is my favorite player in the NBA, and him winning a championship for Lebron while watching people like KCC pretend that he didn't would be hilarious.

I can start to enjoy being a Lakers fan again. There's more sweat equity in more of these guys. And it's not a team built around LeBron anymore or one that's going to cater to him.

If it took having to put up with the most hateable team in basketball history for a bit (seriously - Westbrook and Patrick Beverley. Jesus) then so be it.

The future is approaching and now LeBron is a transition figure rather than the centerpiece. I can live with that.

**** the Warriors. I hope they lose out (I know they won't). But I do not want them to have any success this season. They traded for a turd of a player that sucks and is a quitter.

Sneaky move. Butler is acting like an absolute dbag but seems like he will be able to coexist as a mid range and rim scorer giving those shooters more space. Draws alot of fouls with his style of play.

Why would you like Luka and not like LeBron? Luka is an absolute bitch on the court. Alwaaaaaays whining. Him and Lebron play alot alike. I admire Lukas offensive talent but he is an annoying flabby bitch.

dirk digler 02-05-2025 07:55 PM
I hate that trade for GSW. I get trying to get Steph some help but you just gutted their depth for a terrible team mate.

And yes those guys were all expendable and they weren’t winning with them but giving Butler a big contract is curious. At least it is only for 2-3 years.
