I’ll bite

It’s no fucking way to prove it but I’m sure these teams could’ve had a title but take away Lebron....and I’d say these teams would’ve won titles

Drose Bulls MVP and maybe the year after....

That hawks squad who send 4 players to the all star game

Indiana power squad with young PG13, West and Hibbert(when they battle Miami)

Fuck that Isaiah Thomas led Celtic squad wasn’t a push over during the second of the year....

Toronto a few years back....
1.
Im going to pretend you didnt say the Hawks so we can have a serious discussion here. If you were serious ill just bow out beforehand.

2. You have to tell me who they wouldve beaten and why.

for example,
Derrick Rose was not going to beat the Lakers/ OKC / Dallas by himself. Look up who was on those teams.
That "one man show" does not win NBA championships, its cute for the regular season and Eastern conference playoffs.
Harden is a better version of him with the Rules in his favor, and you saw how that ended before Paul came
Unless that player is Lebron James, who was basically doing everything, not just scoring.
The "year after" he was hurt?

Swap out Lonzo Ball for somebody else

I know the Pelicans are basically the nobodies in this situation but in reality the suits in New Orleans are already thinking about the drop in interest they are going to have to deal with once AD is traded.

Realistically, people around town have already said the trade talk has killed their interest.

With in Lonzo and his father in tow, how long do you think it's gonna be before he starts shitting on the market and turning more people off.

You can't bring the Ball family to New Orleans.

Man, I like Lonzo, but from the looks of it.....Lonzo and Ingram can't play with Lebron. Lonzo's shooting isn't good enough to play off the ball and he can't finish

Hart and Kuz can play with Lebron

Any deal should be based around Lonzo and Ingram.

I came here to post this. Only thing worse than a Kobe or Jordan stan is a Lebron Stan.


I think Queen T wrote this one.

:yawn: None of your Golden State buddies are here bitch to laugh at your weak jokes. Only thing worse than a Laker fan is one who jump ships to dickride Steph Curry and the Warriors then runs back when Bron shows up. And by the way, get some new avatars tired of seeing some gothic emo CAC or white boy skull on your shit. Prolly paint your nails black everyday. :smh:

If Lonzo Ball doesn't fit with the Lakers, then the Lakers need to ship him elsewhere.

If LaVar's recent interviews about the potential AD trade are anything to go by, he doesn't want his kid in New Orleans.

And the last thing the Pelicans needs, as it prepares to ship another star player away is to get back another "Eric Gordon" basically a player who doesn't want to be here and probably will give a poor effort along the way.

They need both for defensive purposes. Lonzo AND Ingrams length gives the Lake Show a distinct defensive advantage in the back court. Hart is undersized and stays getting cooked. AD would be a nice add and puts up monster stats but I wouldn't break up my starting backcourt for him. Lake Show has to be careful how they approach this.

And Leonard still isn’t out the picture, so that makes this trade a little more complicating in making sure they have the bread to pursue him.

But considering how Leonard has been playing in Toronto, it might be best that he doesn’t go play in LA with Bron.

Laker fans have to think "long game". Thats why Magic is already exec of the year because he's been patient and hasnt made irrational moves. Lakers hold the cards and are in a good spot for the foreseeable future. Both AD and Kawhi are forwards so acquiring either means Kuz the other forward, would be odd man out. Given his continued development not sure thats a good move.

Pelicans are about two steps away from Alvin Gentry chasing Jrue Holiday with a bucket of water.

Sell this shit Gayle because when you come asking the state for a new arene, they are gonna tell your ass NO.

WhoreSinister somewhere punching a wall over this. :lol:

Lake Show whoops Dubs and he still taking shots at Bron and me, still wont say 1 bad word bout the Dubs. :smh: I exposed our moderator as a fraudulent Laker fan. He needs to stay in the Bay with the other reject Kobetards that hopped on Stephs sack a few years ago.

Trade Bron for AD straight up. Much better deal for the Lakers and sign Kawhi in the summer.

AD

KK
BI
LB

There's a team that would compete for years and you still have trade flexibility

Man letting AD leave will have them season tickets @$250(top level)

In this 2014 I paid $1200
This year they $800

Man I like that the lakers got And last night showed what magic talked about during the off-season. Getting Tyson been huge. The second unit defensive been great.

The youthful lengthy and deep shouldn’t be touched....I’m all honesty you got Lebron and didn’t have to get rid of any rising star...
Just sat back and see what unfold...don’t kill the vibe that come Lebron to come..

Shit AD probably only come because Lebron is there....I actually don’t think he’s leaving NOLA but who knows....

Kawhi probably don’t k ow what to do

@Mack1052 Big win tonight. The European kid is balling.

He's doing his thing forreal. I was right near Barclays last night doing that Kwanzaa Crawl and the energy in the area after that game was real. We turning the corner back to respectability.

Won 9 out of last ten and we got two former G-league dudes and a 2nd rounder leading the way:







Let Levert come back in February looking like he did pre-injury and we'll have something

Tough loss tonight for the Lake Show. They sorely missed Bron and Rondos leadership down the stretch to close. I liked the way Kuz, BI, and Zo played for 40 minutes but in the 4th too many empty possessions and mental mistakes. Tough one tomorrow night against the Clips.

They will learn from this. They are too used to depending on the vets. Time to grow up.
