"[LeBron] been to the finals 6 straight times. How many times was he the favorite? None." - Jerry West

I think about this day often

Marc Stein believes LeBron James will not retire a Laker. Not shocked here. They aren’t going all in and I fully support and agree with his decision to go to a franchise that will go all in and expend every asset possible to win.

Basically they want his contract off the books after next season.

Jarred Vanderbilt was the NBA's most impactful versatile defender this past season. How often he guarded each position: PG: 19.9% SG: 19.3% SF: 15.5% PF: 24.0% C: 21.3% His balance guarding 1-5 ranked 4th in the NBA. He had the highest impact of the top 10 in that versatility.

Starter ➡️ Deandre Ayton Backup ➡️ Robert Williams III Injury Insurance: Jaxson Hayes Christian Koloko Kevin Love Wouldn’t hate this tbh

Talking bout “LeBron take a pay cut” nigga not even top 10 paid 💀 tell kat take one

Do people just forget this ever happened?

They really had Luka in the same convo as Bron, Kawhi, AD & Giannis at 21 years of age

these 2 been thru a lot man

More smoke on Love to Lakers:

-Dan Woike on Spectrum says he thinks the roster that the Lakers have now is set & will be the roster opening night. -Also says he thinks the Lakers are missing a vet that can help Bron speak up. Says he could see Kevin Love to Lakers if they make space trading expiring deals.

The Lakers would be making a tragic mistake trying to stock pile on assets for the post LeBron era. The chances of LA getting another top 5-7 player after LeBron is unlikely. LeBron will end up being Luka’s most talented teammate in LA; capitalize on it. Trade 2031, go all in.

INSANE STAT: The only player to make 100% of their dunks last season on 50+ attempts — LeBron James In Year 22, he was 71/71 on his dunks… 🤯 (via @NBA)

i think “First Steps” “Next Steps” and “Last Steps” will be a cool trilogy

The only player to make 100% of their dunks last season on 50+ attempts? Who else but the King in Year 22 🤯

Damn Nick Wright cooked him

KCP makes some sense for the Lakers ngl especially if ur using Gabe/Kleber’s expirings to get him

The Lakers discussed Kentavious Caldwell-Pope and Donte DiVincenzo as potential trade targets with the Grizzlies and Timberwolves, sources told @ClutchPoints. KCP talks happened after he was included in the Bane-ORL trade. MIN immediately turned down DiVincenzo talks.

This year’s Clippers

KP: "It was a very powerful moment. As players, we didn't know that that was going to happen. It was a genuine surprise. The t shirt was determined this morning. Not to tattletale: 0 members of Team Clark were very present for that"
