The Los Angeles Lakers continue to play franchise basketball on easy mode…
Simply put, the Lakers signed Lebron James because they are in LA and no other reason.
Lebron pulls the strings and gets AD. A bunch of role players take team friendly contracts to join them every year.
Now you’ve got one of the future faces of the league which is costing you almost nothing.
It’s like they don’t need to try, star players just appear there every few years. I’m sort of tired of the Lakers man.
Edit: mods at r/nbadiscussion deleted this while like 20 people were discussing it in the comments so I’m posting it here. I’m leaving that sub I guess.
