I saw that too.

He should be willing to take less after all the cash he has made.

Forget who it was...@shopson maybe? pointed out that, I believe last summer, he opted out so the Lakers could look to sign someone and then took what was left under the 2nd apron.

Perhaps he'll be willing to do that again.

So Lebron has finally declined enough to be off topic?

I think he will be invigorated by Luka coming to the Lakers....he's even younger than AD and he can take him under his wing with conditioning and all. I think the training staff and Bron had an effect on AD playing more games the last few seasons.

Yeah, the Lakers training staff got him to change his workouts to strengthen his core...Lebron taught him that there is some stuff you can play through.

Seeing Lebron and Luka talking and laughing on the sideline in the second half has me anxious to see them on the court together.

Luka just prolonged Lebron’s career by 3-4 years at least

I mean Lebron is still playing at a superstar level. Why not?

I said years ago one summer he could transform his post game and become a PF but still handle the ball. I don’t think he is there yet. Towards the end of his career. He could play 4 or 5…will he?

I guess I meant it's not Luka doing that. Then again it would need to be someone who can run the point like Luka so maybe I should shut up.

Him and Kyrie made it work and Lebron was going to hand him the keys before he threw a tantrum. Luka has the keys.

Takes a playmaking load off his shoulders, can play off the ball more, rest more, etc.

You're right. Luka can easily carry the load LBJ has had to carry for the Lakers. LeBron can pick his spots and save his legs for the playoffs

I would love to see LeBron play until he is like 48.

Not going to happen, but would be great.

I still think 42 or 43 but 44 or 45 isn't too crazy as far as how great he has been this year. The Lakers made the moves for him to possibly do it now.

He is good enough that he can basically play as long as he wants.

I have no doubt he will be good enough to play a few minutes a game at 50

He won’t do that, but he could if he really wanted to.
