**LA LAKERS THREAD** Sitting on 17! 2023-2024 offseason begins

[pmatic]

DJ should not be in the league man

 

[BIG LEEMELONE]

We have who we have. One thing i hate is that you guys expect us to win every single game. If we win, you complain. If we lose you complain.

Now everybody acts like they loved the 19-20 team. Lol. Team started better than the warriors and suns this year and they were still crying everyday

 

[noblekane]

this anger because us long time fans dont like what we see is absurd.

calling us the worst fanbase because we arent big *** homers

like yall want us to be blind homers like buck em or what?

thats not how fandom usually works.

a team with lebron and ad shouldnt be 16-15 with such a weak schedule

period.

we have had probably the easiest schedule in the history of sports and were about to be 16-16 come tuesday

complete garbage

 

[BIG LEEMELONE]

If you're a long time fan you should know the season doesn't end in December. Has nothing to do with being a homer

We should strive for greatness

Set the bar higher

3 top 75 players in the starting lineup

Is February a good time to be critical of this poor performing team? Just want to know when we’re allowed to criticize

You can do whatever you like . If you wanna have a nervous breakdown when the season isn't halfway done and they haven't really had a full roster all year go ahead. Point is yall did the same thing when the team was 24-3. Did the same throughout the whole playoffs that year. Now yall want KCP back . I realized people just enjoy complaining one way or another. This is you after game 1 of that championship season for example

this. Especially after being spurned by Kawhi and PG. both basically didn’t wanna play “LebronBall” and Lebron tried to recruit Kawhi and got rejected



you would think Lebron would wanna show out against them opening night. But he ain’t no dog

Lmao ya I was just sick of always losing to the clippers. Especially opening night when there’s all that excitement of a new season with our new superstar AD

Nope. Call me worried when we lose 3 games in the nba finals. Til then, we are in the drivers seat.

How dare you criticize the mighty lakers. We are a team that changed the sport. We have an owner who was naked in a magazine. We got mr triple double. Never ever question them. We are mighty. Hear us roar





Remember two weeks ago the Russ fanboys were beating their chest about his good 2 week stint. lol

Some of y'all must not have ever witnessed what a Laker championship season looks like.

Tell me...... in any of the 17 Lakers championship runs if any of those squads ever started off playing .500 basketball in the first 30-32 games only to turn it around and win it all the same year lol...bro there is ZERO.

Thia team ain't winning **** this year so better not keep ya hopes up.

In fact, I bet none of the recent NBA Champions in the last 20 years won the title after starting off the season 16-16.

If anyone still thinks this team has enough time to turn it around and win it all in June-July, I'm sorry to say bruh but you are DREAMING.

#itsonlydecember.....LMAO

My thoughts when people say “if you’re a long time laker fan you should know season isn’t over in December”

lol. Never seen a bigger group of people in denial in my life. It’s ok if the team ain’t good. Life goes on

 

[lovehateself]

we stink

We are still talking this the season doesn't end in December nonsense.

Bro, if you want to act as if this team can win a chip based off what you have seen so far, so be it.

But acting as if people are having a nervous break down because they critical of what they have seen on the floor is laughable.

Comparing this team to the 19-20 team makes no sense at all. None. Zero.

Team was near the top of the west the entire season but had some trouble early with other good teams. Once they beat the Clippers and Bucks in the same weekend, people felt way better about that team.

This team can't rebound, turns the ball over consistently and doesn't have the defense of a championship contender.

There is nothing wrong with saying that and saying those things isn't the same as saying the season is going to end in December.

There is no way that this team should be 1 game over .500 with the schedule they have had. Once again nothing wrong with saying that.

Unless this team makes some sort of move, they aren't winning a championship....have no clue how you don't see that.

THIIIISSSSSS ISSSSSS WHHHHHYYYYY YOUUUUU GEEETTTTTT RUSSSSSSS

 

[BIG LEEMELONE]

Not even saying they're gonna win a chip but some of yall come in here strictly to ***** and moan. If you know they're not winning a championship why are you still complaining game after game . Just put yourself out of your misery and become a warriors fan

 

[DLF]

Serious post:

Only other option we have to save the season is to completely switch our defensive scheme. Only play AD and Lebron at C. Switch everything.

Russ
Reaves
Ariza
Lebron
Ad

Sprinkle in:
Tht
Monk
Ellington
Melo
Howard

Or trade tht Nunn for grant and boom:

Russ
Reaves
Lebron
Grant
Ad (skinnier quicker version)



Switch everything. feisty. Our only hope but of course this requires AD to play big but he can’t and Vogel is stubborn

 

[tupac003]

People still watch because they are fans of the team.

Guess in whatever world you live in you can't be critical and still be fan.

Start an everything is roses Laker thread then....

 

[BIG LEEMELONE]

You're having championship expectations for a .500 team and getting upset when they don't meet your expectations. And in the same breath saying they're not a championship team. Seems backwards to me but fan as you please

 

[tupac003]

Wait....

Your telling me a team with Bron, AD and Russ shouldn't have championship expectations and then when they aren't meeting them, the fan base shouldn't be upset?

Seems backwards to me but fan as you please.

 

[BIG LEEMELONE]

Alright this is getting corny. See yall at the parade

 

[DLF]

Crazy how the one player of our big three we wouldn’t mind see missing time has played every game lol
