Lakers 2021-2022 season thread

Stephen A said yesterday that the W's are going to win the next 2 of 3 Championships if Klay Thompson returns on a full-time basis. Stephen A emphatically pronounced that LeBron is finished and should consider retirement in the next two years. I agree with Stephen A on this one. Dude is done.

James gets a one-game suspension for punching Stewart in the face. The Lakers get a half a million dollar bonus in savings of their money as James doesn't get paid and the Lakers get a refund of the luxury tax that is paid connected to the salary. Great. A win-win situation. The Lakers players play better when James isn't around and the Lakers save some cash!

Apparently everyone else is seeing what Stephen A has stated. This dude says that LeBron is done being "The Guy" and others on the Lakers are taking that mantle. Father time is undefeated.

The Athletic: Lakers’ LeBron James isn’t the guy anymore

The Athletic said Los Angeles Lakers star LeBron James is no longer the key guy for the team based on his play this year.

The Lakers have played 10 games without James and they are developing into a team that really doesn't need him like Cleveland did or maybe even Miami. The Lakers are running their offense through Westbrook and AD with help from Anthony, Monk, and even Dwight Howard.

Very impressive and the pundits who are saying that James is fading into the background and Stephen A stating that James is done look to b correct. This team is now driven by Westbrook, AD, Anthony, and Monk

Bradley is coming around and so is Jordon and Howard.

 

[Retroram52]

End of third and the Lakers are down by just a deuce. Big third quarter for a change.

 

[Retroram52]

THT is dying. 0-6 tonight.

 

[Retroram52]

Lakers have gone to sleep. Outside of Anthony's three, no one else has done anything.

 

[Retroram52]

Knicks have 6-point lead.

Got to play D in the fourth in order to have a chance at a win.

 

[Retroram52]

Knicks lead by 8.

 

[Retroram52]

THT is now 0-7. Geez dude.

 

[DJ]

THT is colder than ice.

 

[Retroram52]

AD with the three and then another rebound.

Vogel needs to sit THT. 0-8. Unfortunately Vogel doesn't have many prolific shooters to replace him.
