If NYC wins the rest of their games they are still in the cat-bird seat. |

No coach is going to tell Lebron what to do |

I only watched the last 10 min of the game. Caruso was a beast and I'm proud of the guy. Lebron looked lazy/old as hell. I saw nothing but 3's and long 2's. The entire team offense was just guys standing around. Ugly but successful tank game. |

Caruso and Williams have been the only bright spots, maybe the vets should take a lesson from them and look at there effort. |

It’s really as simple as Lebron wanted the glory of hitting the GW shot at MSG and he got blocked because he hasn’t been jumping on his jump shots all season, outside of his highlight uncontested dunks of course. |

LBJ and AD with no bench will not win anything.
Keep the core and build organically. |

Not the Lakers' way. We will continue to suck without a change in leadership. |

Agree... but I'm just trying to manifest a change direction by positive thinking and hoping if enough of us put out the energy... maybe it will penetrate their stubborn skulls. |

There is no core. DLO, Nance, Randle and Zubac are gone. We have no defense, no rebounding, no 3 point shooting Kuzma, Ingram with some promise and Zo who looks decent when he can suit up. There is nothing to build organically. |

We were fourth when the team was happy and LBJ was healthy.
Klutch and LBJ destroyed morale with their treatment of the rest of the team.
If they can play close games with the G leaguers... they will be fine when they add another good free agent... or two 2nd tier agents as well as a lotto pick.
AD and LBJ by themselves is the worst possible outcome.
The biggest travesty of all would be if we traded for AD... he hates playing with LBJ too... and then leaves.
It would be the Kobe farewell tour all over again, without the five championships and goodwill. |

Up by 11 with 3 and change left; blatant tank job. |

This means nothing considering the schedule was easy, and if I remember the Clippers were in first place so it means nothing. |

Come on, man...
We've beaten top teams and lost to bottom dwellers... this means we are talented enough to beat anyone with a properly coached and motivated team.
Add a couple shooters and rim protector and we will be competitive.
If we trade everyone for AD, we will be bad for a long time.
If they want AD... just get him in 2020.
LBJ is almost done... he might have one more stellar year left... but AD and he can't win without a bench. |
