The Lakers have 3-peat chemistry

[GrayGoat]

LeBron and AD is on an entirely different level. This will be devastating for 3Ball.

They definitely do. Only question is how much will bron decline. Probably wont happen this year but i could see bron in decline next year.

Lebron's Cavs would've had the organic chemistry needed to beat the 1-star Mavs in 2011.

So he left a year early and was taught karma by Dirk.. they would've been massive league favorites in 11' for the 3rd year in a row. So lebron went from potentially having the most organic, goat ring ever, to team-hopping and getting 4 fake rings.. . A historic disgrace to competition

hope you realize they have a re-worked roster... they might not gel

AD is too injury prone and he will sustain an injury sooner or later that will keep him out of the playoffs.

When LeBron's speed goes...90% of his game goes. He won't be able to drive/attack the basket anymore, which is what he does best. He can't shoot, so he's just going to take up space.

Ball-dominance kills ball movement and doesn't fit with other spotty-shooting ball-handlers

But if lebron could incorporate more shooting off-ball into his game, then his game would facilitate ball movement and fit with anyone

So the only reason the Lakers wouldn't gel is lebron's skill restriction to ball-dominance.. ultimately, he's less skilled than mj/kobe/bird because he can't play the shooter role off-ball to help ball movement.. lebron is bad at organic ball movement, so he gets beat by it (lottery record vs Mavs, Spurs, Warriors)

What? He has been shooting very well last few years. He can also playmake as a point forward and rebound the ball with his size. He has been working on his post-up game lately so he can play off-the-ball (still needs some work there but he is solid right now, could get even better). Lack of speed will affect his ability to drive to the basket, but his game has developed into so much more over the years.

[Dagoods]

He's still a subpar shooter 10ft away form the basket! He lacks the midrange game.

lebron doesn't rely on speed; he can bully ball his way to the hoop with ease

No, what LeBron does best is outsmart you.

And his speed may not start to go until he's 40+.
