Playing devils advocate here, this could also mean LeBron is at the stage of his career he just want to cruise to his retirement and start of his next career phase. He’s happier now because he realizes this team is not a title contender, so why not just enjoy the city of LA’s embracing. What I’m saying is I hope LeBron coming to LA with an eye for post retirement career, I hope he does not treat playing for Lakers as a retirement package. |

He’s so effortlessly great. I don’t think I’ve ever seen a player whose as consistently great as he is without breaking a sweat. Love it, can’t wait to see him fully unlocked and ready to kick some ass! |
Top 3 all time in my book. |

I think he does, but I doubt that it negates his desire to win. He will compete hard and try to get this young team deep into the playoffs. _________________ RIP mom. 11-21-1933 to 6-14-2023. |

They had fun on those Heat/Cavs teams. Remember those post game interview bombs they always had on those Heat squads. It's not a new thing with him. |

Josh Hart has previously worked out with Idan Radin and changed his shot after college. Don't believe he would be changing again. |

I love how Lebron is breaking the narratives about himself. People said he’ll trade all the young guys. People said he won’t come here without a second star. People said he won’t play for Luke. Now the national media (a lot whom I respect) are saying this Lakers team will look a lot different come the second half. We shall see, but if Hart Kuz Zo and BI can play as well as we think they can, these kids aren’t going anywhere. |

It's really great seeing how enthusiastic and encouraging Lebron has been on the bench. I feel like that is the kind of personality these young kids will gravitate towards |

Kobe and Jordan (and Kareem, Worthy, Cooper, etc) were not all lovey dovey all the time.
Expectations need to come from within, from the actual players. I love L.A. Bron, I am not ashamed to admit it! _________________ Love, Laker Lanny |

I am a long time fan, and stand by my belief that LeBron is unlike anyone we've ever seen.
Shaq would get winded at some point, Kobe wasn't the physical specimen that LeBron is at year 16, Kareem and Magic played in a different era with different rules.
LeBron in his 16th season (with extra games played with playoffs and finals mind you) looks like he's just as physically gifted as any other year he's played.
As a matter of fact, he's probably fundamentally even better than he's ever been.
I'm just excited to have this man on our team.
To go from the Magic and Kareem era, to Shaq and Kobe era, to Kobe and Gasol era to the LeBron era, you're right, we're blessed. _________________ I miss you Kobe. I miss you Gigi. |

Not sure how my comment is different than anyone else’s on this page. Sorry, we are enjoying LABron at this moment. And I will suck whom I want when I want, thank you.... 😜 |

Mmmm! G damn, Jimmie! This is some serious gourmet sh!t! Usually, me and Vince would be happy with some freeze-dried Taster's Choice right, but he springs this serious GOURMET sh!t on us! What flavor is this? |
