Whether they're with the Lakers or another franchise, do you view either AD or Lebron as feature players that can lead a team to a title? Or are Finals MVP-level production days over for either or both of them? |

I'd be amazed if they account for 40 wins. |

If LeBron played so well this year, why can't he play at an MVP level next year (as long as he's healthy)? |

He can. People are just being emotional. |

If his avg. minutes can somehow be limited to 30 (and he can avoid back to backs) then it's quite possible that he can play at Top 10 level next year. |

Almost as many TOs as our pg. no defense, missed a bunch of games. Scorer. Those guys are usually 6th men. He is nowhere near the mvps. |

If he could, we would've made the play-in game over the Spurs and Pelicans. The Pelicans didn't have Zion at all this year, only had Ingram for 55 games, and only had C.J. for 24 games yet they're *5* games up on us. Thinking LeBron deserves to be anywhere near the MVP conversation is a joke. |

Yes! Limit him to 30-32 minutes a game next season, and keep playing a fast-breaking style so that (if we have a much better roster) we will blow teams out and get him even more rest thanks to lots of fourth quarter garbage time. |
