    Most did last year and look what happened.
    LeBron is one of the greatest ever to play the game but he has to admit he is not the same player as he was, Westbrook can dominate a game to a fault, Davis gets hurt a lot and the "Squad" he has right now is not going to benefit from having Melo out there 25-30 mins a game.
    I will keep that "Narrative" all year and if they happen to win a Championship I will be highly impressed.

    Nobody said he doesn't pass the ball. We just said he's a Tool.

    Is HCP a Lakers fan because he too is a young socialite ?

    Man.... if we had Grayson Allen on our team I would be very unhappy. That guy has arguably the most punchable face in the NBA.

    Hello darkness, my old friend
    What do you have against Sam Merrill? Or did you mean Olshey is a knob?

    If Dame was on that team instead of Westbrick they would have won that title.

    I wonder if dame would be closer if he had a chance to play with any of them? Certainly Durant and most likely Paul George.
    One other player Westbrook has played with was Harden.
    Beal I'm not sure takes them further than CJ but he might?

    I brought up championships because you and every other Lakers fan think Westbrook is going to help the Lakers win a Championship. I was pointing out that list you shared of all the stars he played with....none of who he won a championship with. It'll be a repeat with the Lakers.
