He’s one of the greatest .. not the greatest.

It’s definitely Jordan. The next 4 names are all toss up/preference


Jordan
Kareem
Kobe

Are top 3 for sure IMO

Lebron is in the 4-6 conversation with Magic, Bird, Chamberlain, Russell. Just my thinking, but Kobe may not have been physically better than LBJ, but mentally it’s not even close.


I’m not mad at this list ..

Kobe was more skilled than LeBron. Simple as that. LeBron is a freak of nature tho.

Lukes is gone. Lebron should be next. And Magic can get on the road too.

OK welp... this is why it's better not to try to win in the last three minutes. The dramatic "comeback from behind" is a tiresome habit.


What in the world is Luke thinking starting the 4th quarter with none of the big three, no Javale

Brain dead strategy 🧠 💀


Luke’s rotations are a perpetual question mark.

Lebron is a fraud. Trade his ass.


Why cant people understand one player doesn't make a team?

Get Lebron out of here NOW!




Not Lebron’s fault.

The Coaching is not connecting with this team. Point blank.

After the Suns timeout when we cut the lead to 7 we looked horrible. Billy Mac and Stu called it they looked angry and unmotivated.

maybe it is coincidence....but it always feels like Lebron always scores enough at the very end to edge out Kuz or Ingram for most points


That’s because he freezes them out for the last 5 minutes playing lebron ball. He flat out played bad down the stretch tonight. But this one is in the refs. Should have been an and-1 on the Ingram drive, followed by a McGee and-1, and about 3-4 non calls for bron down the stretch. Ok whatever don’t give us the calls,.. but then to turn around and GIVE booker the foul against hart on a (bleep) jumpshot!?! Then let Ayton damn near travel AND hook hart?!? Insane man. I swear I feel like the refs are against the lakers and more importantly LeBron. The man who has basically said he’s bigger then the league. Pathetic man.

Gotta get SOMETHING out of dudes not named Lebron or Brandon.

You all still really think that LBJ/AD and Solomon Hill would have won this game?

Klutch, Magic, and Rob created this sh*t show.

Listen my guy, if youre going to call yourself the single greatest player ever, you dont lose to the suns. Im still waiting to see GOAT things. And dont give me no non impacting stats.

Who here has said Lebron makes the team? All i see is either people saying Kobe is better than him or that he is a ''Fraud'' or the original Trade his ass.

Well what doesn’t help his cause is a) what people witnessed with Kobe and torn achilles and b) what the clippers are doing this season with their roster.

Comes with the territory tbh. Lebron needs more help than ever, and that doesn’t mean Lebron ball with 4 spot up shooters.

34 year old Lebron ball doesn’t work. Let’s see if both Klutch and the Lakers understand what needs to be done to return to relevance.

Listen my guy, if youre going to call yourself the single greatest player ever, you dont lose to the suns. Im still waiting to see GOAT things. And dont give me no non impacting stats.


plenty of games this season he has been a big contributor of wins so dont give me that crap. I like that he says that means that he has confidence. People going to act like if Kobe said that we wouldn't be applauding him?

get out of here with that (bleep) people just dont like Lebron...Lebron could have gone for 80 and people would have been like this.

So what if he scored 80? do it every game.

People didn't want him here and will take him down every game we lose. True fans here really. Dude is a Laker now Before he wasn't and it was (bleep) him but he is here now if the fans wont stand by the team and him who will?

LeBron has to do some self-reflecting and realize he's not the same player he was. His hero ball at the end of games doesn't usually work.
