Lakers top 4 players are good enough to win any playoff series. I’m not sure the rest of that roster is though. It’s not like that Mavs team last year that went to the finals was much better.

What was the NBA thinking putting a franchise in tiny Oklahoma City. Brain dead decision

You don’t like the lakers, you like Lebron. I will say this he is the most well conditioned athlete in nba history. What he is doing at this age is remarkable… but he still cries to much.

Strong disagree. I'm not even sure who you're referring to with the fourth player. Either way Rui and DFS are both way worse than the 4th guy on pretty much every contending team.

Austin Reaves is overrated too due to the Lakers media boost. Guy would be coming off of the bench for the top teams.

Lebron and Luka are obviously great, but there's a huge talent gap with the rest of the Lakers roster vs the top teams.

You think he'd start for the Cavs, OKC, Boston, or NY? Look at their starting back courts.

Massive homer take if you think he's better than any starting guard on those teams.

He has always cried too much for my liking. But with how he was officiated compared to other greats, I get it.

He would not start for those teams. But would be the 6th man of the year in the league if he played for any of those teams.

hes a decent third scoring option and a piece that a bunch of teams would be ok with having as their third scoring option. dont underrate him just because you think hes overrated. hes not a high level 3rd scoring option like porzingis or mobely. but hes fine and you can absolutely win with him as your third. let alone when lebron and luka are your top 2

It would actually be interesting to go through all of the playoff level teams and list it out. Feel like he'd also be coming off of the bench for the Clippers, Grizzlies, Rockets when FVV is actually playing, maybe the Nuggets given how bad their defense is, probably the kings.

All I’m saying is that he is not really overrated. He is a really good player… not sure what you are blinded by..

Lol really dude if he's not worn down by now at his age he will never be worn down. Dude is an iron man and now that Luka is on the team he will take some pressure off Bron to do everything. They have a shot to get to the #2 seed maybe even the 3 seed

The MSB has a proposal for you?

If the Lakers take OKC like you say they will, Tigerdroppings will start a Jamal board where you can post non stop 24 hours a day.

Now if lakers don’t? You leave and never come back? Deal?
