LOL! See I told you guys, today Lebron will fall to the hands of the Rockets! hahahahaha Good to see Lebron in losing streak. They will not even go to the playoffs!
It’s way too early to be making such a bold prediction and in truth it wouldn’t be surprising if the Lakers don’t make it to the playoffs but with Lebron on that team, anything is possible.
Lebron is facing good teams on their start, that's why they have a bad start. Their next game would be against the spurs and this is a tough one again but if they win this, it would give them a good momentum.

So in short Lakers is not a good team. Lebron is not the GOAT but a self-proclaimed one! They will keep on losing; the west teams are too good for him. He should stay at the east and hopes he will be in the finals again. But in the west? He had no chance!

Too early to say that.
We cannot justify everything with just three to four games.
They haven't even trained much. It was a late trade and chemistry is still not there.
Pre-season games made them look good but that is a soft game which gives freebies of shots.

I do think people are depending too much with Lebron or asking too much.
He is one man. He needs a team. They are not that ready yet. They need to learn how their team mates play for now.
Let us see after 20 games maybe.

The point is of course Cavs will not become champions without Lebron, it was an impossible odd thing that lebron actually pulled of a ring while he was there during this warriors tenure. However look at the comparison between what happened when Lebron left for the first time and how the team looks now.

First time Lebron left the team was looking like Sixers (before the process started when they lost 60+ games a year all the time) and now it looks like they might even have a chance at playoffs. Not an easy task, definitely will be a challenge but the difference is insane, from having a 20 win season after Lebron left to a 40 win season after Lebron left would mean a worlds difference in the team.

Last time Lebron left there was literally no one in Cavs that could potentially be a good player, Kyrie got drafted and he wasn't enough at all considering it was his first years. So I think this time they will be much better than they did on first time.

That's the kind of action that really shows that lakers are very motivated to win every game this season, however, the chemistry has not been form yet, it will take I guess and they might be frustrated along the way as the losing streak continues.

I'm trying not to be too harsh on them, it's been only two games. They were both highly competitive and could have gone either way. Blazers and Rockets are also one of the best teams in the west, probably top four seeds.

The thing I don't like when I watch the Lakers is when JaVale goes to the bench and they either play Bron or Kuzma at the five. They are so vulnerable defensively as there is basically no paint protection, each drive is a basket or a foul for the opposing team. Maybe give Mo Wagner or Zubac a chance idk...

At least, Lonzo gets to start now with upcoming multiple game suspensions for Rondo and Ingram.

That Celtics vs Knicks fight. Whew. It made my heart beat like a racing horse.

Just seconds of fight. It was almost like it will go to overtime but a sudden miss in the freethrow from the Trey Burke of the Knicks giving a win for the Boston.

Tatum and Tim Hardaway Jr. giving a good show for the Knicks fan.

Too early to say on what would happen because of that game. As playoffs approaches we would really see different plays for sure.

They have overrated the Lakers because of the presence of Lebron there but some don't know that most of the players of Lakers are inexperienced and young and the veterans are not that good to be honest. I'm not a fan of Lebron but seeing him in losing streak is common I think since this happened last season with the Cavs already.
I agree to your point when it comes to their line up but still Lebron can bear with that and I'm still surprised why people not get used to those situation where Lebron on losing streak yet this is really just common.

Too early to make such bold statement. If youre watching the game, Lebron has changed his playing style, he became less aggressive and was making everyone get involved in each and every play. 7 players from the Lakers scored double digit, if you noticed. Give the Lakers some time to gel together. Neverthless, Lakers will be on the 5th or 7th seed this year.
That's the strategy of Lebron in regular season but as long as they reach the playoffs, he will be taking over and will turn beast. When his teammates are already familiar with their role, then that would be the time that they'll win most of the time.

Well, the Season just started so I don't see Lebron James not carrying his new team to the Playoffs just like the last season. The team is just new and the players are still feeling each other in the NBA court. I'm not a fan of Lebron but I really think he will not let this season pass not even reaching the playoffs. West Conference has more great teams than East and I think he is still adjusting into it.

Oh, man did we get some action last night or what. Punches were thrown between Rondo, CP3 and Ingram, multiple ejections, close game that went to the wire. But again Lakers pulled the short end of the stick with some questionable calls from the refs in the final few minutes. Ingram might get multiple games suspension by the NBA though, as he was the one who started it all.

The Cavs sucks when James is not around. Keep on dreaming because Cavs will never go to the finals this season. Not without James carrying your crybaby team.
It might be true that this current Cavs rooster will be struggling this season but it does not mean that they will not improve. Only James is gone and who knows that they might land some quality players on the trade. Even with James around they are still not capable of winning a championship so they better have to rebuild this time.

Of course, every team has a chance of getting the championship but with the currency rooster and the current coach the Cavs has, it diminish the chances they got to get to the championship. We know that they have former superstars in their team but come on man, they are in the twilight of their careers and the Young blood will just outrun these slow old superstars.
Precisely, this team needs to rebuild in terms of hiring new and young talents, those stars who still left after lebron went out are no longer effective competing with super teams that also in a building process, look with boston and sixers they are the tops competitors that cavs needed to surpass
if they are still aiming to land the eastern finals, those teams have younger players who really have eagerness to win the title.
Thats right mate,Boston is more likely the pain in ass of cavaliers as their remaining stars are not enough to conquer my Boston celtics and as we all know that cavs only goes to finals because of Lebron though they have good sets of players still they need to build another game play that eill fit them all as james leave them this season.but i want to give a benefits of the doubt that cavs will go stronger without lebron

Honestly I was expecting Cedi Osman to be better this year because without Lebron at the SF position he would get a lot more minutes but I wasn't expecting him to show up this much. I was scared of it because Tatum got a lot of minutes last year whereas cedi wasn't even getting minutes on playoffs and that made me question if ty lue will give Cedi the minutes he deserved. He got those minutes at this early in the season and if he did not showed up the way he did he would probably get benched again and not get a lot of minutes but he used those minutes to show that he is actually a good player and deserves attention and now it is harder for him to get less minutes. However the season is still early and he could still get benched or play less minutes if he starts to suck. The best part of his game is his energy, dude plays %110 anytime he is on the court and I hope that continues.

I do not want to overreact from just game one but Lakers really didn't look good at all, the team is all filled with players who are individually good and the thought process was to get the young guys get more experience thanks to playing with Lebron and getting even some playoffs experience like Celtics are doing right now but if they are really not playing well together, individually they are alright but as a team they are really not. Good thing about this game was josh hart once again, he showed that even during a loss on a regular season he deserves the SG spot.

A team with Lonzo-Hart-Ingram-Kuzma would mean the future is basically there for Lakers and all they need is some playing time however if they do not click together it wouldn't matter how great they are as players and it would be all for nothing, they need to increase the team chemistry really quickly which is the hardest thing any Lebron team ever had.

I disagree with the last part.
I am not a Lebron fan but he did good when it comes to receiving respect from his team mates.
Remember when he suddenly joined the Miami team. They are already in chemistry with Lebron there even if he just got there.
Specially Dwayne Wade.
It is still early to disect this Lakers team. They may be just shocked of what really happened with their team since veterans came in.
