The season is too long to go all out and then expect to be fresh at playoff time.
Every win the Lakers get (like last night vs Sacramento) with LeBron and AD on the shelf is huge.
I am not worried, a healthy Lakers team at playoff time will be a tough out no matter their seed. |
Nicely stated. |

Looks like AD & AD2 are going to have the opportunity to develop some on court chemistry sooner than later.
Marc and Trez/Keiff stand a very good chance to dominate over opposing 2nd stringers.
All this extra burn for the role players is going to pay huge dividends once we are at full strength.
Lebron is butter on that steak - his game fits into any crevice. He doesn't need to build chemistry with AD2 because of who he is and how he plays. Bron comes back 100%, he'll have another chance to silence the haters. |

Butter, on steak? Ok. But we gotta have what LeBron brings...which is the spice. So I'm going with a little A1 sauce too  |

Haven’t you ever been to Ruth’s Chris before?

I’m at the point where I really don’t care about the “talk”.
I am tired of the “just wait until we are healthy” mentality. Time to prove it on the court. Currently 20 games left. Clock is ticking.
When James and Davis return they will need to integrate into the team and the team to them. They need to find the balance of mpg and chemistry needed to compete at a playoff level.
Because with only a few games left in the season and in all likelihood hovering around that 7th seed they have no time to gradually work themselves back into shape. Lakers need them both to be the Top 5 players they are to win going down the stretch, not just in the opening round or play in games.
Will they be? Show me, don’t tell me on IG. |

Lebron, AD, and the Lakers management know what they're up to or whom they will be facing in the finals. They will make sure that they are fully healthy when that time comes. They don't want to go to war with half of the bullets in their magazine. Just wait  |

Ruth’s Chris is a large chain, so probably can’t really be the best.

No. Steak at Sizzlers back in the day was it. Haven't had steak for years. |

When this freaking pandemic is over, this is the first restaurant I'll patronize along with the whole family.

That's fine, but there are those of us that are as patient as necessary because of extenuating factors like (1) how the injury occurred in the first place, he got rolled up on pretty severely (2) It's a 36 year old Lebron, not 26, the man needs his damn time to recover properly (3) he really, after leading us to a banner w/AD, and playing in the midst of the shortest NBA season ever, doesn't have to show anybody anything.
He knows what he's got to do, and he's got the big picture in mind as a result. Being on IG and ish is just an outlet. His record tells you that he doesn't get distracted. |

Which would be around May 1st, 20 total games missed since the injury. |

I’m guessing if they are able to pull off the Knicks/Charlotte games, they probably hold AD out until Dallas games. Lebron probably back for that Denver game on 5/3 on the 2nd night of back to back.
