What if the Lakers actually don't make the playoffs?

[Real14]

How would u feel about that ISH?:biggums:

[kuniva_dAMiGhTy]

LeBron fans torch Kobe for missing the playoffs in 2005. Even though Kobe missed around 20 games and his head coach retired midway :oldlol:

With that in mind, if LeBron's Lakers dont make the playoffs it should count against him. How much? I don't know. It gives credence to the "east=cakewalk" argument though.

[LAmbruh]

LeBron fans enjoy bringing up Kobe missing the playoffs in 2005. Keep in mind Kobe missed nearly 20 games and their head coach retired halfway thru the season.

I think if LeBron's Lakers dont make the playoffs it should count against him. How much? I don't know. It gives credence to the "east=cakewalk" argument though.

goes to show how great 34yo Lebron is being compared to prime Kobe :applause:

:no:

Throw in a retired head coach and you'd probably have a point.

[LAmbruh]

Whoa a coach? No COTY Phil this time? COTY D'antoni? COTY Brown? COTY Scott? The chemistry change :eek:


The standard for Kobe bar is real lowsy putting it on a coaching change :oldlol:


Meanwhile 2nd yr Luke Walton jumping from first year lottery to 4th seed immediately :oldlol:

Yes. A coach.

You know, those guys owners sign that give teams structure and stability?

The 2005 Lakers played in two different systems after Rudy T retired. You go from a HOF coach...to Frank Hamblen. Frank Hamblen who never saw a head coaching position again. I never even mentioned Odom missing 15 games :oldlol:

And Luke Walton? Guy had a better winning percentage with the Dubs than Kerr did.

"Kobe bar" for sure though.

[superduper]

LeGOAT drops to 13th all time

Finals contender plummeting to lottery


Indeed Prime B-E-A-N standard :bowdown:

[Mr. Jabbar]

I would stop rooting for him. Or maybe not.. im too much of a fanatic

[kuniva_dAMiGhTy]

Finals contender plummeting to lottery


Yup.

That sounds like LeBron right about now.

Got me there man :eek:

[Mask the Embiid]

What if the Lakers actually don't make the playoffs?
In my town, we call that "pullin' a kobe"

[FKAri]

If Lakers miss the playoffs then Kobe falls out of my top 30.

[LAmbruh]

Yup.

That sounds like LeBron right about now.

Got me there man :eek:

I don't see it unless the Clippers don't bow out or LeBron gets injured. Our schedule especially the first 10 games or so is relatively favorable. Next 5 games are the litmus test, so..

Sidenote. Kobe's teammates were a level below LeBron's talentwise. They just weren't good enough especially the guard rotation. And suffered from the same issue that's plagued this Laker team ie injuries.


Now. If we don't make the playoffs it's not the end of the world, but for LeBron to go from 8 straight Finals to not making the playoffs when his competition is essentially the Sacramento Kings is not a good look.

So if the playoffs started today...Lebron wouldn't qualify?

Yikes.

Well, thank you for enlightening us.

You're right, gimp.

You can't type these quotes out of existence.

:oldlol:

[LAmbruh]

Oh noez

He thinks Lakers were Finals contenders last year too

Even more mentally disturbed than I thought :(

Hang in there bud

[kuniva_dAMiGhTy]

Oh noe

Were making fun of KLoves dead last Cavs team out East now

Anyone can make the Finals out lEast, oops :(

LeBron in the East = finals

LeBron in the West = struggling to grab a playoff spot

Muhhh narratives!!!11 :mad:

[LAmbruh]

amazing, also 4th seed w Lebron last year, plummeting to lottery when he gone

what a kawinki-dink :eek:

[kuniva_dAMiGhTy]

Ayyy

The post you deleted made as much sense as this one (none). Relax turbo :oldlol:

[jstern]

I don't think Lebron will suffer much from it, at least in the media. They will just simply talk about how he needs more help. Lebron needs more help. So he won't lose.

And if they make it, people will be like playoff Lebron dragged his team to the playoff in the West. :eek:

It's a win win either way.

[LAmbruh]

Will LeBron make the playoffs?

That's the REAL question here.

You know it. I know it. Hell, even "Steve" does :confusedshrug:

ofcourse he will

but for your ilk does it really matter anymore :confusedshrug:

I mean falling back on Silver did 9/11, steroid help, opposing injuries, magnet rims, league help is the redundant way to rationalize

you know the drill

who are we kidding little guy "it's luck" :oldlol:

Win-win for me.

I actually like watching some of the Laker talent.

But your hero missing the playoffs? Talk about a double-edged sword :oldlol: He'd miss the playoffs for one (no shit). At the same time though, you'd watch the house of narratives come crashing down like the walls of jericho.

LeBron carrying anybody to the playoffs? Nope.
LeBron cracking it out West? Nope.
LeBron's career was bloated in a weak conference? Yup.

Essentially every talking point the apostles introduced.

I'm rooting for y'all. No...I really am :oldlol:
