Are you sure he is happy??? Money is not an assurance for happiness. He might not be able to sleep on a beautiful bed because he missed free throws to times in an endgame! lol

See? You are purely blinded by your hate haha. Non sense talking to you. You can't even share at least a good analysis. You are just a crybaby crying about Lebron that's it.

Lebron was never really a great free throw shooter anyway and if you remember during the 2016 year Cavs became champions Lebron was fouled by Draymond during the last seconds while he was going for a dunk, dude hit 1/2 there too.

But, just because Lebron was never really a great free throw shooter it doesn't really take away from how amazing he is and the real true potential of the question "is he the greatest player that ever played", he might be, he may not be, we will never know since its a subjective term and doesn't have a correct data for it however we can clearly see he deserves the question at least and just because he lacks free throws doesn't take away from that, Shaq was the most dominant player to ever play and he never really hit his free throws at all, people fouled him intentionally so he could miss his shots instead of dunking on them. That didn't made Shaq a bad player did it ? No. Lebron hits much better than Shaq so it should not matter neither.

The Lakers badly need a win now, the line open at -3 I guess and closes at -5.5, I guess the public is pushing this line and I also
think they will have a win tonight because of the line movement. Worst team against another worst team but the Lakers have Lebron, so Lakers has an edge.

Lebron won the game easily, and I think a lot of people won big bucks because they were able to dominate the game.
Their next game is tougher because they will face the number 1 team in the West which is the Denver Nuggets, this one, I don't think Lebron can still survive.

Oh really? Now they are at 1-3, how about that. It's all a matter of pacing on how to jel with his teammates and not about any promises. I also think the Lakers is not aiming for a championship this year but the pride of James to be at that level is still there. So let's see what he can bring to the table because it is still to early to say what they are capable of doing.

Bashers are making fun of him now and there's a joke that has been rotating on social media.

Kobe Bryant jokes that he would come out of retirement if the Lakers start 0-5
Kobe Bryant jokes he will return to the Lakers if they start 0-5

They need seriously our Kobe! 

You are generalizing it to all players mate. I think what he meant is that, LeBron "MIGHT" not be aiming aggressively for championship this time "BUT" he will do his best in every game as he mentioned in an interview upon accepting the deal with the Los Angeles Lakers.

LeBron can just go to Sixers or any other contender team if he is really eager to get the trophy this season. My guess is, who knows some preparations are now being discussed on the table about the Lakers' target in the next free agency and that will be the time they will catch the trophy. LeBron's presence in the Lakers as part of the first plan will be able to attract big names in the next free agency + the possible max contract.

But again, it doesn't mean he will not do his best to became a Lakers champion this season. If they ended up there then good, if not then fine. He will just continue to play at his best.

Just my speculation though. Feel free to criticized it.

Okay, should we change the thread name to LA Lakers updates and Lebron James discussion? 

Golden States dominates the court again.
Steph Curry creating another rain of three points. 51 points and congratulations to their win.

Donovan Mitchell putting a great show at Houston with 38 points. Wow those exhibition lay ups are really something. It is like he can have lunch in the air and will still have time to shoot the ball.

Houston though, trading Ariza might have put a hole at their defense. I see not much of defense from Houston. It is all offense. Well, that is how Mike D'Antoni is.

I think for the meantime yes.. As long as there is a pure hater and pure fan here of Lakers or should I say Lebron, this will be a non-sensestop discussion. Like I said, I don't really understand why people are all-eyes to Lakers. There are other teams to watch too.

There are lots of happenings in the league now that is not being discussed here even how good it is because of that LeBron hype. Maybe because the only team they know is Lakers, Warriors, Rockets etc.. lol.

Examples are:

a) Blake Griffin's 50 points (it's now rare to see these days a power forward making a big production like that because they are also focus on defense.)

b) Nikola Jokic'swonderful record of  posting a triple-double with 30 or more points without missing a field goal. That's insane.

c) Steph Curry's set a new record of getting the Rank 5th in 3-point scoring leaders. And I think he will nailed the 1st Rank soon if he continue to play like that.

and many more......
