I've used to be a fan of the NBA but not anymore. The league is filled with entitled crybabies that make over 10mil per year. They go out and buy rolls royce cars and mansions while their own city has homeless people.

I really don't get your point here.

Are you saying that NBA players need to help or feed homeless people in their city? I'm sure that some of them are doing some great things in their community and it was not reported.

But for me its not a obligation though, we don't care if they bought expensive cars because they can afford it. You can go and email Bill Gates and Warren Buffet as well and tell them to feed everyone with their billions. Your argument is totally flawed, just saying.

Its not their responsibility to feed the homeless people. They worked hard for what they have achieved. I remember there are number of NBA players who has been abandoned by their family, came from the poor family, and others cant even afford college without scholarships.
Are you not informed that NBA has charity, including individual NBA superstars have it. But, they cannot cover all the homeless people from their country.
If you dont like NBA anymore, then you are not forced to like it. NBA is a business after all.

Yay, we lost a valuable NBA fan Lol cry me a river. I didn't get why though ...because they're making a lot of money; they choose to spend the money the way they want, or because there are poor/homeless people in the world?

I'm genuinely interested to know who are those 'entitled crybabies' you are talking about. haha

I would also argue that NBA players from all pro sports in America are among those who give the most back to their communities.

LeBron James is really a big deal that even he is on a *"weaker"* team now, they are still on hot seat. Enough of LeBron and put some other spices in their writings. Again people are not really expecting for Lakers to be in finals but still they it's like they considering it as a threat because of LeBron.

What do you want? Players should give every people houses? Didn't you know that majority of NBA players are donating to charity and even have some own charity. There is also a NBA CARES wherein the organization is doing some outreach for general causes.

Even with LeBron James, the Lakers will miss the NBA playoffs this season. Here’s why.

All I can say is, the pointers are good and have an interesting details.

HOWEVER.. it's really early to say that. The article pointed out that Warriors, Rockets, Jazz, OKC and Spurs seems to be the top 4 and Lakers, Nuggets, Pelicans, Timberwolves, Blazers and Clippers will be fighting each other at last 3 slot (top 6 to Cool

. How sure they was these teams will maintained the position? I mean they only based this standings from the last season's record which is not a good basis for now since some teams did some revamp to their respective lineup.

But honestly it's not really surprisingly for me if Lakers will end up out on the playoffs. LeBron landed on a team that is not even a finals contender so I don't really understand why people are all eyes in Lakers and they really spend time to work on an article like that.

Looks like those who are saying that Lakers will not be able to stand strong on the West are really considering Lakers as a threat.

Okay that made me laugh a little.
Are they really following all the trades that had happened?

You are right. They are basing on what happened last year. Why not Lakers and yet Spurs and will be there? They lose Kawhi too and ended up getting DeRozan who made a lot of errors in the playoffs.
They did not even look at Pelicans who might have lost Rondo but they still have Davis. How about Dallas too?

They are just doing it for something to write without real basis.
That is Lebron James in there. The Lebron James whom I think is not aging. Grin

Are they basing at pre-season games? That will be a good joke though.

Who's watching now Q3 of Lakers vs Sacramento Kings? No hate with any of the team or with our superstars.

I just want to share that it still gives me a strange feeling watching Lebron with that jersey.

Well, I'll get used to it soon.

It is weird at first but I guess you people should be used to it. As his fans, you should also support his decions and actions also, you can't do anything about it really.

Also, I am surprised to the jersey of them when I first watched their first game. I agree it is like a vintage jersey as said on the earlier posts here. It kinds of bring me back to the old Lakers I grow old to. Missing Shaq and Kobe together at that team and at the same court.

I'm not really arguing with his decision but I'm just having this type of feeling since we used to watch him play with his old jersey for a very long time. Yeah, I'll get used to it whenever there's a new game from him and my eyes would realize that its him wearing new jersey until his contract ends or would extend with LAL.

This match is a serious game, the scores now are so close to each other. Last 1 min.

Kyrie just said that next year he plans to re-sign with Celtics. Boston nation must be ecstatic now.

https://twitter.com/celtics/status/1047991730455400448

I mean it's not 100%, done deal, the season is long and a lot of things can change but still...my condolences to Knicks fans. Cheesy

I swear, I'll hang myself if I hear one more time that Rondo is a good passer. Water is wet geniuses...

Sure check out Cedi osman, Lebron made sure he practiced with him, kd and Kawhi during off season.

Now that Bron is gone, he'll definitely get more time in. Really looking forward to seeing this guy put on a show

Rondo will be a great addition to the Lakers. He has been one of the most underrated NBA players of the last 10 years. His contribution to the 2008 celtic's championship run often gets overlooked because of the big three. This guy is a triple double machine and he provides great defense. His downfall has always been his outside shooting but with his current team, he has others to carry the offensive load.

I believe that.
He had that kind of skill of a real pointguard unlike others who do scores a lot.

I know the pre-season was just like a tune up game to them but you can see there how Rondo really plays. He is a passer and there is no doubt about that.
The good thing here is he have good catchers all over the floor. Lebron could catch anywhere and McGee with high passes.

I highly doubt Lakers will get rid of neither Ingram nor Kuzma , not even Lonzo. That is the main core for this team when all is said and done. Spend few years with Lebron so Lonzo-Hart-Ingram-Kuzma can be great threat in the future, think about it, 4 years with Lebron and rondo in this league and with lance as well to teach different type of stuff, these kids can improve so much it would be crazy.

After 4 years of learning and experiencing, either they will be great meanwhile or afterwards. Lakers will pay all they can afford and go above luxury tax if they have to keep those kids. They will be amazing after they learn and play from the best. You want to look at the young kids from Cavs ?

Sure check out Cedi osman, Lebron made sure he practiced with him, kd and Kawhi during off season.

But of course, he has LeBron on his team so he doesn't need to be a triple double machine. Its his job to be a facilitator and not to be a scoring guard. This season's Lakers is more fearsome than the previous line up because they has the king on it. In addition to that they got two defensive players in McGee and Stephenson.

Lebron and Rondo seems to be complimenting each other nicely and Javale Mcgee seems to be playing his heart out on preseason which is not a good look, if you are a good player you do not work hard on preseason, take a look at Lebron.

Rondo and Lebron both good passers so I thought it would be hard for them to actually pass together at the same time since there is only one ball but there has been a lot of Lebron to rondo to someone scoring or rondo to Lebron to someone scoring type of deals that I think they are opening a lot of spacing with great passing. Lakers just needs to find a way to use their two rosters, they are too stacked.

They are good passers but as teammates, they will adjust to it but I think its better if Lebron will be focusing more on shooting since Rondo is there for the passes although this passing abilities by the two will definitely give advantage to the young players of the Lakers.

I think Mcgee is just practicing in the pre-season as he is the starting center of the Lakers now. He is not the starting center when he is in the Warriors.

Indeed, Rondo is one of the best point guard, he does not score much but he can make a good play.
Lebron needs to respect his teammates, he should not bring the ball all the time, he just need to attack and score and the Lakers will be a tough team to beat.

I think this happens every year.
They are just more agitated now since it is Lebron who left Cavaliers and then a sudden move to the Lakers.
Seriously, it is expected to happen. Same goes when he left Cavs too for Miami. This is the same reaction from the people.
Trying to take him down because he aint loyal to one team.

That is comedy on the highest level. Grin

Same goes for KD after he pushed himself to GSW for those championships.

I think it was GSW at that year who had enough cap to get KD to their team.
Well, we could say he really does want a championship that bad and he seems to not see it while staying at OKC.
He got 2 championships now and he might not stop to get more.

By the looks of what happened with 2018 championship KD was the one who made it possible for the GSW to go through the playoffs.
Curry was injured with a lot of games and same for other players. They got the right timing of injuries. Grin

Anyways,probably by the end of the season we're going to see one young guns of the lakers going to another team lol. Ingram? Kuzma? I seriously think it's not going to be the same team by the end of regular season.

I don't think they'll make any changes this year. Bron said that this year's success would not be measured by winning the championship.

Well, if they have a chance to acquire a major player, shooting the dark: AD or Dame, I'd probably consider trading for them. Otherwise, it's pointless, they've got the cap space to sign a max player next summer. There's no need to rush things. And from what I'm seeing so far in the two preseason games, without overreacting, I like the young guys, don't forget Lonzo. Wink

PS. Kuzma is going to get his hands full playing the 5 Grin
