Lakers head coach Darvin Ham on LeBron James’ load management:
Now that we have, top to bottom, what we feel like is a highly, highly balanced, skilled, athletic, younger team of guys that have logged a ton of NBA minutes, we can surround both he and AD with these players who are coming in eager to contribute... That’s going to allow us to be able to be more efficient with his game-to-game minutes.

TAKE A GUESS! More or less than 35 MPG for LeBron this year? M or More, L for Less

No thanks we real LKAERS FANS want to keep our young players!! Real LAKERS FANS want to see MAX REEVES JHS PIPPEN JR and the list is growing of excellence scouting for the LAKERS!! we want to see our steels grow and furnish in purple and gold.. every Team in the NBA finds and keeps LAKERS PLAYERS but is the LAKERS

We should of gotten demar instead 🤔
When he was available.

[shanehughes]

Rui, AR, Russell, and draft compensation for 24 pts a game???? I’m confused as AR will do that on his own. Nah we are straight.

[jonathanseverino]

No way. No trade. All that for Zack. That will be a terrible mistake

[edwardwashington]

I don’t care how much his contract is it doesn’t match up to the players we have to give up it’s not worth it

[calcham]

I like Zach LaVine's game a lot, but that is too much to give up for him. Plus, he is a 28-year-old with a formerly torn ACL, which might make him vulnerable.

Add Caruso and i’d do it. For LaVine alone remove Reaves

[raymondtuckerjr]

Why do you do this crap? Lakers don't want Lavine, and you know it, so what the hell are you doing? Is the competition for clicks that brutal?

She just said lebron is one of the greatest players in the FRANCHISE 🥴👋🏼 if we talking Lakers I absolutely disagree. Lebron is not even a top 10 LAKER of all time. AD should be the focus and have lebron as a second option. We should be looking out for AD more than we should be for lebron. I understand how good lebron is but he should NOT be looked at or treated as the best player in the roster specifically because of his AGE. Try and play more around AD than u would around lebron because at the end of the day that’s why Lakers extended AD. The focus should be Davis not James.

Won’t happen for the lake show. Don’t need him
