LeBron is no dummy, he understands that this team played over 500 ball last season when both Zo and BI were out there. His addition plus the improvement of our young players adds up very nicely in the 15-20 win range. What do you have if you add 15-20 wins to a 500 team? It’s gonna be fun to be good again.
We won 35 games and included an 0-9 stretch, winning only 4 our of our final 15, Lonzo missing 30 games, BI missing time, and KCP missing some. Also with very little veteran depth.
We're a 53-55 win team now and LeBron knows that
And then we have our pick of that final piece in 2019. The plan is solid, rings are coming!
McGee, Rondo, Kuz, Zo, Ingram, LANCE, Wagner, Hart to go with Bron. We have the talent _________________ Austin Reaves keeps his game tight, like Kobe Bryant on game night.

I wonder if any players are going to start congregating around Lebron's offseason training. Would be great to have some of the core players get in some reps with him on the court to start building up chemistry. _________________ (bleep) Kawhi

Further the point..
if we won the following close games in the final 15:
and then won 4 out of those 9 we lost, we'd be sitting at 43-41 and that's with out playing the "what if we were healthier" game
We've replaced Randle with he best player in the world. Have all our young guys 1 more year mature, don't have KCP spending his nights in jail, and replaced Ennis, Brewer, Frye, Lopez with Rondo, Stevenson, Wagner, and McGee
But again... WE HAVE LEBRON JAMES.
I don't see how this is not a 53-56 win team as long as we're healthy
Luke needs to get a better mins rotation that last year but we're tremendously improved.

I'm sure that will happen. I also wouldn't be surprised if he gets everyone together and holds one of his ”mini camps” on the eve of training camp, just to build chemistry. I love that leadership. _________________ “Christ did not die to forgive sinners who go on treasuring anything above seeing and savoring God.

Yah. I’m expecting 50-55 wins next year.
I think there is a chance we struggle a bit early as clearer cut roles will start to form over time.

I absolutely love watching these highlight videos of him terrorizing teams.
Especially from last season, which I honestly think was his best season yet.
If people haven’t yet watched him torch the East in the 2018 playoffs, I suggest you do so to get an idea of what we now have on our team. It makes it that much more phenomenal. _________________ I miss you Kobe. I miss you Gigi.

He reminds me of Old Man Kobe now when watching these highlights. He used to get up over the rim by so much more just a few years ago. Now a lot of these are layups. But yeah, was still one of his best seasons. Makes me wonder just how many rim rattling dunks we'll actually see from him during his stay in LA.
Also - man the Cavs' offense was so unwatchable when it reverted to Lebron isoball. Hope the Lakers know not to do that mess.

Unfortunately, Cleveland's offense actually seemed to be designed that way. I think we can be certain that the Lakers aren't looking to duplicate that. It's a recipe for losses and the Lakers wanting him to play in the post a lot more is an indication that they'll be looking to maximize whatever he has left. _________________ “Christ did not die to forgive sinners who go on treasuring anything above seeing and savoring God.
