LEBRON TO THE LAKERS

So.....you were glued to the TV. Why do you do this to yourself?

At the games dumbass. You can't really be this dumb, can you?

 

[Montalban]

You don't have a phone that can easily send you news updates?

I suppose, but who is that interested to disrupt their life with that nonsense? I catch it in in my spare time.

Fucking Rondo man. Don't like him as a player at all. One of the most selfish stat chasing PGs I've ever seen. Plus we already have a PG that can't shoot. They couldn't find some other vet to sign on a 1 year deal?

When Rondo was a bull, they almost swept the Celtics in the playoffs. He got injured after game 2, and the bulls didn’t win another game. Rondo is a smart player who really pays off in the playoffs. Signing rondo means it’s probably the end for Ball. I like the move, personally, but I also want to see how lavar ball takes the news that his son is traded because the old man is such a big distraction.

Never said he wasn't smart. In fact, that's what makes me dislike him even more. He's smart and knows better, but he only tries when he feels like it. "National TV Rondo" is definitely a thing.

Yeah, I agree, but he’s also older now. If he lays it all out all the time, he’ll be spent when it counts. That’s more being smart through out the season than being lazy.

LBJ needs to be surrounded by shooters. Rondo and Ball will clank up more bricks than any PG duo in the League. Weird signing

Surround Lebron with shooters is what I've heard should be done, next 3 signings after him:

Kentavious Caldwell Pope - 34.5% career shooter from 3.
Lance Stephenson - 30.3% career shooter from 3.
Rajon Rondo - 30.9% career shooter from 3.

current players on roster:

Brandon Ingram - 32.9% career shooter from 3(although he showed great improvement last year)
Lonzo Ball - 30.5% career shooter from 3.
Kyle Kuzma - 36.6 career shooter from 3.

Also, is LBJ going to play center? The construction of this roster after getting LBJ has been puzzling IMO.

The Rondo signing is one of the most puzzling things I’ve seen in a while

Something a Minnesota team would do

 

[steelparrot]

They are all 1 year deals, if it doesnt work, they all walk next offseason anyway. No way they can be a Deng type drag on the roster.

[shopson67]

...not if you're considering your family and future in the entertainment industry. Or that your skillset pushes the Sixers best player out of position.

Is Simmons going to spread the floor? Is he going to change Lebron into a 3/D wing?

It's starting to look like the world's worst practical joke on Luke Walton...

Quit lying, we all know you can't afford baseball tickets.

I get the feeling the Lakers plan to truly go for it in another year after signing Kawhi. The Ws might be broken up, and they will be a year older etc. Gives the Lakers kids one more year to mature, get a taste of playoff basketball, etc.

 

[redseat]

Lakers immediate contenders now. Clearly they aren't done either

The players they signed are on one year deals. This is going to be a development year for the young guys. They’ll start to accumulate the Lebron-ball role players as the season goes on and kawhi next year.

I get they are all on 1 year deals. But they surrounded him with nobody that can shoot. Also, Lebron will be in his age 35 season in 2019-2020, a year of developing is another year of his decline(albeit it appears it will be a slow decline)
