Total meltdown :roll: :roll:

Lakers only made playoffs when AD was around.

[coin24]

He slows down the offense, pounds the ball too long then expects shooters to bail him out..
Or he launches a brick..
Almost single handedly blew it in the 4th qtr last game.. horrible turnovers..

Lucky for him AD is a total beta moron, takes the heat off him..



Wonder if he’ll do his cringe crown celebration when Memphis sweep his ass

I hope Bron has a few of those LeF*ckYou 3’s against the grizz :rockon:

This Forum Is Better WITHOUT OP

Prove me wrong

[Nb1]

Just gonna leave this here from AussieSteve schowing how retarded OP is :roll:

There is not 1 single fact that doesn't show Lebron has the best and most impact on the team, OP is so dumb :oldlol:

"Here are some facts from this RS:

Pre post-trade-deadline lineup:
LeBron was +111 (+2.5 per game)
AD was +47 (+1.4 per game)

Lakers were 21-23 when LeBron played and 5-8 when he didn't
Lakers were 15-18 when AD played (14-17 when he started) and 11-13 when he didn't

Post post-trade-deadline lineup
LeBron was +100 (+9.1 per game)
AD was +153 (+6.7 per game)

Lakers were 9-2 when LeBron played (9-1 when he started) and 8-6 when he didn't
Lakers were 16-7 when AD played and 1-1 when he didn't

Overall
LeBron was +211 (+3.84 per game)
AD was +200 (+3.57 per game)

Lakers were 30-25 when LeBron played (30-24 when he started) and 13-14 when he didn't
Lakers were 31-25 when AD played (30-24 when he started) and 12-14 when he didn't


Lakers are consistently better with LeBron on court than AD, and consistently win more LeBron plays than when AD plays.

You can stamp your feet and fume....but the Lakers were better with LeBron than AD the ENTIRE YEAR, and they have been playoff bound when LeBron plays and lottery bound when he doesn't the ENTIRE YEAR."

Looking at the standings, the Lakers were 12th/13th when LeEPO went out and 6 games under .500.
The LeEPO-less Lakers moved all the way up to 7th-8th without him and finally to .500.

You are omitting one variable, but it might require critical thinking to remember: The teams the Lakers played upon LeEPO's return were at the bottom of the league. But, let's not get bogged down into truth.

You're not looking at the right standings.

No, actually he is.

[ShawkFactory]

No, actually he is.

They were 6 under at the deadline, then won 3 in a row before he missed games. They were then able to go 8-5 without him, then 6-2 when he got back (although he didn't start in his first game back and was clearly rusty...hard to fault).

^ This is what actually happened.

Ok, so they were 12th seed and 3 games under .500 when he decided to sit out.

And then they shot up to 8th seed and over .500.

Huge difference.

Not really. The difference between the 12th and 6th seed at the time was like 3 games.

[Full Court]

And yet Lebron just couldn't close that gap. He had almost all season to do so, but they never did it until he sat out.

:confusedshrug:

[red1]

not buying it.

[SouBeachTalents]

He's making such a 3ball esque attempt at an intentionally dishonest argument. That turnaround had so much more to do with the trades the Lakers made than anything to do with LeBron, and he knows this too :lol He's just continuing on his troll gimmick and pretending like the revamped roster didn't even play into the equation. He's also neglected to bring up that the Lakers started 3-0 with LeBron after those trades, including 2 double digit wins and the biggest comeback of the season. Since the trade deadline

With LeBron: 10-2, 7 double digit wins
Without: 8-5, 3 double digit wins

Looks like they're much better with him than without, and would've been even better had he played during that 13 game stretch. Now let's see the troll retort :lol

[Hey Yo]

not buying it.

Huh????

You don't want to buy a big pile of bullshit with a side of lies?

[Shaquille O'Neal]

LeEPO's last game was vs. Dalls on Feb 26th.
On Feb 27 the Lakers were 29-32 and in 12th place.
His "foot hurt" and he ducked #2 Memphis on Feb 28th.
On March 25th, the Lakers were 37-37 and in 8th place.
They played real world beaters after that - Chicago Bulls twice (and lost once with LeEPO back in), Utah Jazz twice, Rockets, Suns without their starters.

More fun facts:
Lakers +435 free throw differential (Double Kings who are second)
27 of last 30 games outshot there opponents in free throws
850-531 in that span.
Lakers lead nba in free throws per game 29.9
Lakers also lead nba in least fouls given up per game 18.1 and opponents getting least free throws

Your fun fact tangent won’t absolve you from how wrong you originally were. The difference between what you said and reality is the difference the Lakers actually make up on their record with Lebron out :lol

You're the one who has trouble thinking deeper than the most simplistic things. That 10-2 record was against a bunch of garbage teams. Even the Suns had nothing but bench players playing. Lakers are cut and dry better without Lebron, and it's been demonstrated over and over, but you and your fellow Bronie fluffers will deny it until you're blue in the face.

Which is why you're Bronie fluffers to begin with.

Lebron with Westbrook missed play in, while Kawhi with Westbrook got the 5th seed.

Lebron is the only player in NBA history that couldn't make the playoffs with Westbrook on his team. :lol
