Are you kidding? Lebron's getting extended and they are drafting Bronny. It's going to be a circus and clown show from here on out. _________________ Yi Jianlian Fanboy. Respect The Chair.
Starting anew. I'm retiring my main.
We knew this was gonna be a likely outcome when we first got LeBron. He helped.get us 1 and now we're stuck watching the org ride out the ticket and merchandise gravy train.
That Covid title which forever will have that asterisk by it was the beginning of the end for this team. It gave front office sense of false vision that an aging LeBron and AD can be a dynasty. So the front office just doing patch work ever since 2020. Jeannie Buss being cheap and nepotism, missed out on good head coaches along the way.

We tanked for years and accumulated a young core, which we then traded away to get one asterisk ring. _________________ Damian Lillard shatters Dwight Coward's championship dreams:
I knew this season was over the moment the trade deadline passed without the Lakers making moves.
But, I was still interested to see how much this team can "grow naturally."
Turns out, not at all.
The Lakers were in a tough spot last off-season with nearly all the Lakers as FA. It's hard to pull off sign-and-trades, so I understand why they couldn't make moves at that point. But, it was inexcusable not to at the trade deadline.
I never believed in this team as is. Last season was the result of a favorable path in the playoffs. MEM had major injuries and GSW was an old team coming off a grueling 7 game series. I don't think it's a coincidence that those teams(and SAC, who GSW beat) did nothing this season.

Gutting the team for one player wouldn’t have any impact this year. Injuries and players not playing to their potential is not the front office problem. I can name many many players.. we are in a better place today then on the trade deadline.

even though its suspect the Bubble ring counts and as a franchise thats all that matters. Would be nice to be more competitive than a playin team but you never give up a ring. _________________ Kobe.

Clippers and half the league are a joke, certainly not the Lakers.
No, they're a joke. Terrible coach and GM, take their marching orders from a 39 year old guy and his agency. No vision or idea what they want to be. Enjoy the Covid chip, been 12 years of garbage and mediocrity otherwise. _________________ 17 time World Champions

This x 10.
Ring is legit as any. Had we not made the moves we did in 2019/2020. We’d still suck just as bad except no rings to show for it.
People need to stop acting like we had a developing contending core before Lebron came. Ingram,Julius,Hart,Kuzma, Caruso etc….theyd all be fighting for a 7th seed right now too or worse
