I don't get it. How can you act surprised when he built a shitty Cavs-esque team in the Big Boy conference? The Lakers aren't the Cavs. They don't get the benefit of nearly 50 games against sub .500 and poorly built/managed teams.

They brought on poison and dipshits in Rondo, McGee and Stephenson at the expense of their young "talent".

Still LOLing at delusional LOLaker fans "excited" about this team. They're not going to finish better than the Spurs and right now and with the West being so packed from 5-9, they're a bubble team at best.

5 to 1 they bring in JR Smith, btw.

...Magic Johnson's meeting with Luke Walton on Tuesday reverberated throughout the Lakers organization. The pressure's on the coach to win sooner....

The Lakers core is horrendous..Kuzma is a good volume scorer(a nice 6th man) and Hart is a good role player, but Ingram is absolutely terrible, as is Lonzo..they should have traded Ingram and Lonzo when their value was still high due to Lakers hype..terrible GM work by Pekinka and Magic, as expected..

Doesn't really matter, anyways..LeBron went there for the lifestyle and to become a media mogul, as anybody with any sense already realized..if he still cares about basketball, then he's a complete moron for joining arguably the worst franchise in the West at the moment..

More like LaVar has been quiet because Lonzo is so terrible that even he can't hype him up anymore.

I think he's doing a quite good job of making a pork pie with a turd cake. I think he'll be fine, I think it's just magic attempting his first steps into being a manager and not being very good about it yet..

Luke is not really that great of a coach he would be fine as an assistant coach. He's an average coach but it's not the reason the Lakers suck. It's the roster LeBron or no LeBron. Firing Luke isn't going to make the Lakers any better. They need to trade some players eventually.

LeBron should be getting blame for the shitty teams that he insists any team that signs him needs to assemble. Last time around with the Cavs he forced them to overpay a bunch of random veterans and ruin any cap flexibility they had and the same thing is happening all over again in LA.

Gotta disagree man. LeBron forced the Cavs to sign all those veterans because the team was already capped out and no one wants to come to Cleveland anyways. Plus he hated Gilbert and had to love seeing him pony up ridiculous money every season for their roster. As for the Lakers, it sounds like LeBron told Magic to do whatever he wants and Magic wanted to hold on to capspace to go after Kawhi or Klay next summer. LeBron signing a four year deal seems to indicate he has faith in the direction the Lakers are going and faith that Magic can recruit the free agents Fredo couldn't. And LA has tremendous cap flexibility. This seems more like when he put his confidence in Riley and signed the four year deal in Miami.

Kawhi to lakers is a lock if raptors fail to win the chip. If golden state repeats, watch kiwi and other stars join lebron to try to dethrone gs. Nba will get rid of confrences and go with a 1-16 seeding in order to get a gs vs la finals.:lmao

During the summer I called Walton and Lonzo gone by the end of the season. Expected Walton gone halfway through, but the team is even worse than I expected, so he'll get dumped very soon. Since Daddy Ball has been quiet I think Lonzo might actually survive.

Not for teams who want to be champs. Lue is an exception, every opther coach who has won rings was important for their team.

I still can't believe he waited until Game 6 to make Danny Green put the ball on the floor instead of letting him shoot threes off the catch like the first five games. I have to wonder if he watched any tape on him until then because every time 2013 Danny Green dribbled it was a disaster.
