    it is what it is. at least AD came through 2020.


    AD and lebron still have another ring in them. knock on wood that "the fragile one" doesnt go down AGAIN. that would literally be the 3rd year in a row of being unavailable for the postseason. so again, knock on wood.

    Nope, too many younger and better teams right now, LeBron and a healthy AD aren't enough, maybe if they can recruit KD or another top 10 player but I just don't see the Lakers having enough quality role players to hang with the deeper teams.

    You're forgetting that they have Westbrook - multiple-time all star, former MVP, and all time triple double leader.

    Westbrook has fallen off from his peak noticeably...plus he's a horrible fit with James.

    Davis led the team in PER and win Shares for a team that won it all while before he came they missed the playoffs.

    lakers will make a run. AD and lebron are too good. they have had a lot of rest too despite lebrons age and AD's fragility.


    bron is superhuman so he will have a great season, it is expected. we will see if the fragile one can one hold up.

    LeBron has held up, but honestly that's because he hasn't played defense for at least a half decade. Healthy AD, yes they will make the playoffs but they can't hang with younger deeper teams.

    Someone didn't watch the 2020 season, LeBron was solid on the defensive end that year.

    I saw enough to where I saw a noticeable drop off when he could actually defend quick guards. He couldn't anymore bro, take off your rose colored glasses. He can still get it done on the offense but he's nowhere near when he was a stud on defense. AD made a bigger impact on defense.

    Are trying to argue that James was the best defender on his team in 2020? That he had the biggest defensive impact?

    I'm saying he was a good defender. Anyone who watched the Lakers that season will tell you that.

    You saying he hasn't played defense in 5 years in flat out wrong.

    Hold the L and move on.

    So did he get any votes for any All NBA defensive teams?

    Yes, he got 7 votes in 2020 as a matter of fact.

    OTHER PLAYERS RECEIVING VOTES: FORWARDS

    LeBron James (L.A. Lakers) 7
