Their best bet long term is to trade him. Healthiest stretch he’s had as a laker.

Looked like his defense was one of the only things keeping them in it.

He doesn’t have enough help. His costar was nowhere to be seen in the fourth. Much like his fans.

Lebron has played with how many all stars during his career?

Jokic abused him all series to the point he didn't want to guard him any longer. Not to mention he was incredibly passive on offense.

The ball should have been in his hands at the end, not LeBron.

Should he take his talents elsewhere, or have 2-3 all-stars take their talent to him?

People who watch a lot of basketball? The constant referring to “the bubble” and “bubble” performances-Murray, AD, Herro, etc, implies that it was special circumstances, instead of a real postseason, because it was nowhere near the same thing as any other playoffs. It’s the equivalent of finishing the regular season, having your off-season, then crowning a champion the next year.

Do you know what you’re looking at when you watch basketball? Like how to watch it?


He wasn’t guarding Jokic during the series because Davis was needed to be the rover. Most of these games were close because of that. Lakers have no perimeter defenders. Davis defense was very good. Even raw box score numbers like rebounds blocks and steals, he was at the top of the playoff leaders.

Didn’t Bubble-Murray just get disproven? Bubble-Jimmy? Heat obviously a very good team (same core). Nuggets obviously a great team with Murray healthy.

every team was on the same playing field. Every team got the same amount of rest. Every team dealt with the same BS rules.

And here we are a couple years later and the exact same teams that made it to the conference championships in the bubble made it back again.

The bubble was insanely hard on players mentally.


Also, before the world shutdown the Lakers were the #1 seed in the west. It’s not like they were some 7 seed who made it because they finally got healthy due to the 3-4 months off
