Once again, the Lakers showing the rest of the stupid league that we take care of our stars.

Why would the Lakers do this? Lebron will be 37 at the time his contract runs out, he may decline sharply at any time. Should have just kept him till the current contract expires, then look for a new star to pair with AD. Lebron can still get vet min if he wants to contend with the Lakers as how Karl Malone did in 2003.

[PP34Deuce]

Lebron this season will be about what he was last season I believe.

That last year gives both teams flexibility. If Lebron is off a cliff (I doubt) than it's a "goodwill guaranteed year" if he's about what he is now, it gives him leverage to get another 2 years with Lakers or with a different team.

I think him taking a 2 year deal is him literally looking at how he feels mentally and physically.

1) Klutch-Lakers is basically a marriage right now. Both benefit greatly. Lakers get the connections. Klutch gets the exposure. Hence why Montrez is here on a crazy deal.
2) LeBron will most likely be very good even at 39
3) Lakers take care of their stars... other stars notice. Its been a thing since the beginning with the Lakers
4) LeBron won't take a paycut nor should he, considering he's the best player in the league still
5) Above all, its worth it because AD is going to stay 300% now. Lakers have a chance to win more rings during this window with Bron-AD.

Because he gave them a fvcking chip at age 35 with no signs of being washed up. Are you retarded? You mise will ask “why do the Lakers want to win chips?”

Kobe looked good in 2013 and all washed up in 2014, Duncan looked good in 2015 and suddenly washed up in 2016. For Kobe he suffered a career-threatening injury, but the injury was a direct consequence of the mileage he has played. For Duncan, I dont even remember any bad injuries happened and he regressed quickly into retire-mode from 2015 to 2016. Sharp decline can come for 35+ years old star players at anytime, for any reasons. If the Lakers do want to win chips, then Lebron's salary is a little too high for their cap space.

Kobe got his extension after his achilles injury. Lakers gave the finals MVP and champion an extension. Lol.

So what? The Lakers were rebuilding then and not competing for title with washed up Kobe, its a different story now. Or you think they are rebuilding again?

[8Ball]

Why did the Nets give max contracts to players with an Achilles tear and a flat earther?

[red1]

Lakers are turning into the raptors west


Aka finally becoming a great franchise and high IQ front office

Bro what. LeBron-AD is competing for a ring no matter what. Even if we weren't competing, paying LeBron this money is still amazing business for the Lakers.

This is the same idiot that thinks it’s better to miss the playoffs rather than compete for a chip. Nets fans lolol

[Jasper]

When Jordan made a record 30+M a year I caculated how much each shot cost , it was apx. 16k
SO Lebrons 40+m a year each shot i worth about 18,000 bucks....

just putting it into perspective

Oh damn. Good one. Next time we should learn from the best and change our zip code so the best player walks through the front door and another superstar demands to be traded to our team

What an awesome plan. Brilliant move by pelinka!!

Maybe you should give away your third best player to Detroi for free. That seems like a winning move.

I don’t understand this reference since we didn’t give away our 3rd best player.
Could you clarify? Thanks
