| If these doctors worked there magic and LeBron is coming back soon then kudos for going to Germany to get his foot checked maybe that’s why Schroeder doesn’t want to spill the beans |

| Lebron coming back early could really help boost the team, let’s just hope he doesn’t rush it. To do anything we need full health Lebron and AD, gimpy version is a waste of time. |

With AD going zero-dark on his socials, Bron also looking to lock in to make a run at this thing…
| Quote: | 🦉 Lakers Vino @VinoUncorked
“LeBron James is doing three sessions a day to work towards a comeback from his right foot injury.” -
@mcten
Bron knows what a championship team looks & feels like. He knows his championship window is closing. He knows the West is wide open. He’s all in. AD’s all in. It’s time.

I don’t think that it is good news that Lebron is doing 3 therapy sessions a day, if he were improving as rapidly as we hoped then that wouldn’t be necessary. I’m still hoping that he returns in March but wouldn’t put money on it. I wonder if continuing to play on it made the foot worse but we will probably never be told.

I wouldn't read anything into these sketchy tidbits that are coming out.
I get that there is an industry devoted to providing (and making up) gossip for NBA junkies, but we don't need to pretend we know stuff we really don't know just to have something to talk about.
What is Lebron's actual health condition? Heck if I know. When will be come back? Heck if I know. It's OK to admit that. |

Nothing positive about the lakers is good news to you. Not surprised. If lebron is not doing these, then you’d spin it as “he isn’t even well enough to begin rehab” |

looks pretty good |
Lebron make look good, but AD looks totally deflated. I'm telling you, something is going on with that guy. Maybe the pressure of playing in Los Angeles has finally bested him? He may demand a trade after the season is over... |

Might not be the worst thing in the world...if he does it quietly and professionally you could get a really good return and reset the team nicely. |

This is random but how is it possible someone so athletic, maybe one of the best athletes of all time, has that duck walk
Like you could pick Lebron out of a crowd a mile away with the way he trots when he runs |

It's been 22 days since LeBron's injury. He will be reevaluated at some point between now and Thursday (Thursday, March 23rd, will mark three weeks since the reevaluation announcement).
I wouldn't be surprised if LeBron returned on Friday, March 31st, against the Wolves.
It would be 34 days after the injury, and would give LeBron the opportunity to play the final 6 games of the season, though I could almost guarantee that LeBron would only play 1 game in the B2B. |

There a video of him being giddy and running through the tunnel after the Magic game I would be shocked if he isn’t back in a week or 2. |

I think he comes back next week. I would say the 2nd Bulls game. |

| What's the news on LeAnkle? We need him out there. He's resting while AD takes all the heat. |

He was seen doing a fast jog up and down the tunnel when he ran back to dap somebody up. People on Twitter are taking that to mean he is close |

The possibility of winning the Larry O'Brien is slim and none and slim got dead. If Bron comes back it won't make a difference. This is a great opportunity to test the waters. See if AD has what it takes to lead the team. Gage which of the young talent is good enough to keep. Find out if Ham is the coach of the future or is it time to look for a replacement. He's a rookie coach who was dealt a short hand. Give Darvin a shot at proving he's the one. Do some clandestine coach shopping. It's time to look into life after LeBron.

I wouldn't laugh about German doctors. In some regards, they are way ahead of us. Don't forget Bean use to go to Germany to get plasma injections. |

Not really.. The West is mediocre asf this Season and is as wide open as I ever remember it on top of pretty much every legitimate team dealing with injuries to top players.
If Bron comes back looking good to end the Season i'm not scared of anyone in the West at all tbh.. If we somehow made it all the way to the Finals we'd likely be gelling very well and hitting our stride so who knows what could happen in the Finals in that case? A lot has to happen obviously and it's far from a certainty but that's the case with everyone in the West. Denver is one of the few stable teams at the top but are beatable and they're also FAR from being some juggernaut which we've seen on and off in the West for Decades.
It's pretty clear at this point AD is absolutely not a clear cut number 1 option Franchise level guy so not sure what else you expect to find out after watching him for 10 years now? When healthy and rolling he's an absolute 2 way beast and can have stretches where he could be argued as the best player in the NBA but it never lasts whether it's because of injuries or himself just kind of disappearing into mediocrity for a stretch before re-emerging but he will always need another legitimate first option if the goal is to win an actual Championship imo.
All the rest of the stuff can still be "gauged" even with a healthy Bron as we'd be an actual scary team for a lower seed especially. |
