How is this throwing his teammates under the bus when it's completely true due to their injury issues?


Reaves was back for the OKC series. Who was still out other than Luka?

If you didn’t know which team was which and just looked at the two rosters (Luka excluded), it would be hard for me to argue that OKC has objectively more talent. Was Jalen Williams healthy the entire series for OKC?

Everyone on here hates LeBron so much that even when he is telling 100% the truth they get mad.

They were at a talent disadvantage.

Lakers replace Luka with Laravia
Thunder had six guys get minutes better than Laravia because of Williams.


Lakers top three and Thunders top three are about equal. Problem is outside of maybe Smart and Rui the Thunder have eight guys better than Vando, Ayton, Laravia, Kennard, and Hayes.

Lakers have a huge offseason ahead of them. They can get a lot better with the right moves. I’m hoping for Lebron at $18 mil or less or he walks.

"I have the passion and the admiration to hoist a Larry O'Brien Trophy up every single year, but I also have a realization of what particular team I have been a part of in that particular year," James said in an episode of his podcast, "Mind the Game," with co-host Steve Nash released Thursday. "And understanding this year, we fought and we played to the maximum ability of our team. But ultimately, if we're being completely honest, we were out-talented."



In his defense, those are words. Just seemingly used in a clunky/wrong manner.

Similar to, if not nearly as funny as, Oswald Bates:

Maybe he meant ambition? Although that seems further away from admiration . . .

That's insane. Rui Hachimura was the third best player for the Lakers once Luka was out and Reeves was just returning for injury.

What do you want him to say? OKC won bc they were simply way better. They had more talent. Way better players,

The LDS (Lebron Derangement Syndrome) is an epidemic on this board. The Lakers didn’t lose bc the 41 year old sucked. It was guys 2 thru 8.

Name one
ONE, superstar who blamed his teammates

With all that talent years of experience, you would think he would strive to be a team leader not a team pussy

I mean MJ was notorious for dogging all his teammates. Punched Steve Kerr, killed Scottie Burrell, didn’t get along with Scottie Pippen either. Hated Jerry Krause.

None of LeBron’s teammates or former teammates have a bad word to say about him. Neither does Mgmt. He’s about the least controversial player ever in the NBA when it comes to respect in the league. He’s the Peyton Manning of the NBA

Well, maybe if they had a real NBA player instead of Bronny, they could make it past the second round.

You aren't anywhere close to being a rational person here at all.

Post the story about the Lakers 50th win this season and how Lebron threw a fit because credit was given to all the people who hit historic marks that night.
