.. once again Lebron will be showing he can carry his team.

With the players Los Angeles Lakers acquired this free agency, Im not expecting a Cavaliers like playing style here and a carry scenario for LeBron James, it should changed. He have good role players around so I want to see Lakers as a whole man team. Anyways LeBron is now an official part of Lakers roster as he just signed it now.

I just find it awkward for Luke Walton to coached LeBron James as they are rookie mates back in NBA 2003 draft lol. Hope that no intimidation will happened.

Interesting fact. Actually it can give them advantages as Lebron can be more relax seeing his draft mate being his coach. They can talk freely and he can give input to Walton to make big improvements on the team. I don't think that there will be also intimidation as Walton used to play with another superstar during this basketball stint. - Kobe Bryant.

I think LeBron will respect Walton for the role he has. Yes I agree with your thought that LeBron should play not just for himself but for the team as well because he can't defeat the gsw alone not that cousins had signed with the warriors.

They respect each other, their demeanor sometimes doesnt say so, but they really respect each other, they are professionals.
And regarding Lebron not playing like the Cavalier style is highly possible, I know the kind of a player like Lebron, he is flexible in terms of playing his role. If this Laker team would gel together, they will be a solid powerhouse team. Rondo is a true point guard, while stephenson could help with some defense and the future allstar young bloods. I guess if the Laker wants to add pieces on their roster, they better pick a lock down defender.

The bad part about bandwagon is that you can follow the best team, you can follow the worst teams and they are all common. I follow freaking spurs, they have always been great, they are a well run organization and I think it will always be one of the best teams in the league. They never missed playoffs for like 20+ years straight as well.

I don't know if thats considered a bandwagon or not since they are not "good now", hell they are worse than they were couple years ago. Is following an "always good" team like spurs a bandwagon or not Cheesy

I don't think so, Lebron's playing style with the Cavaliers will be carried to the Lakers. It will be his team now just like the Cavs before. They will adapt to James style of play and not James adapting to the system of Walton.

I think LeBron will respect Walton for the role he has. Yes I agree with your thought that LeBron should play not just for himself but for the team as well because he can't defeat the gsw alone not that cousins had signed with the warriors.

Lebron James is a pro and he should respect Walton as his coach, there might be some intimidation but i think they can handle that as they are all pros there.

It's gonna be Lebron James vs James Harden fighting for MVP as once again Lebron will be showing he can carry his team.

Too early to speculate such words like this, we're not yet on the play offs so I wouldn't say such words like this.

I know that Lebron can carry again but look at the roster, he got some good back up that can make the team great and not only on his own.

Chris Paul signed a new contract with the Houston Rockets in the NBA, in a four-year deal estimated at $ 160 million.Paul plays in Houston alongside James Harden, the tournament's best player.The 33-year-old, who played nine times in the All-Star game, scored a season-high 18.6 points in Houston last season, with 7.9 assists and 5.4 rebounds.

I'm not surprise with CP3 signing a new contract with Houston. They almost made in to the NBA finals against Cavs. They become the no. 1 team in the West almost nip GSW in Western Finals. However, he got injured in the process. I'm think him back healthy again they will be a force to reckon in the West and will test GSW again next season.

But with addition of DeMarcus Cousins in GSW line up, still they won't be going to NBA finals again. Also there is Lakers which I think one of the best team in West right now only if Lebron will play the same like he used to be because they are saying he signs with Lakers because of business matter.

I don't know about the Lakers though, we haven't seen the chemistry of the team. Yes, Cousins is a big addition to the GSW I agree, but what I'm trying to say is that CP3 being healthy can somewhat change the complexion. I'm sure that he is really disappointed last season. But if he returns healthy and Harden because of his MVP will continue to show his talent, it will be a very competitive again.

@szpalata, I'm not saying the CP3 alone can put them in the Finals. But we have shown that with his leadership, the team can move further than finishing behind GSW next season. So its another good season that we all NBA fans love to see again.

With that, we can see a more exciting team in the west, it seems like the East are getting weaker because bron just left the East.
I'd like to see the lakers to be one of the top contenders in the playoffs, I hope they will finish a good record now that James is already with them.
It's gonna be Lebron James vs James Harden fighting for MVP as once again Lebron will be showing he can carry his team.

Exactly, the golden state is ever getting richer in quality players and I don't think Chris Paul alone can mobilize his team to beat such a talented team. Had they been in the Eastern conference I would have backed them to beat the cave to the finals but with west GSW is too dominant.

The Rockets have lost Trevor Ariza and Luc Mbah and now they went from having 2 quality defensive players to be able to put them at KD and Lebron James.they should be to looking tot Melo and Green as their SFs. Doesn't look good for them trying to get back to challenge the Warriors again. if they get Melo they definetly improves their offense since he's still a force if used right, but defensively KD and LBJ will basically get whatever they want.Also, I would be careful of putting all my chips on Melo just yet. He didn't have a great relationship with D'Antoni, so it will have to be a good sell. He can still get to lakers at the end but it's better then getting Anthony Carmelo they should just take Melo at the end because there is no better alternative at tis time.
