You know LeBron is thinking " send me back to Clevland with those young studs "

I feel pretty confident in saying - Lebron will retire with Lakers. He isn't going anywhere. He knows his best chance to win is in LA.

I bet he plays his final season with the Cavs

Wife is in LA. Kids are in LA - even if someday his oldest does go to NBA. Life is in LA. He is gonna retire with the Lakers unless he has a fallout with the ownership - which I don't ever see happening with how Jeanie operates and how cozy Ownership and management is with the friends and agency that represents Lebron.

Obviously - anything can happen but I just don't see why Lebron will go back to Cavs. What will he achieve by that? He already won a chip there. Nothing to prove or give to that fanbase anymore.

his wife and his kids were in Miami and that didn't change a thing, he still returned to Cleveland.

Westbrook had a horrible first half. Played ok in 2nd.

Monk has been so good as a starter. Hope they'll keep him in there for rest of the season.

Melo hit some key 3s down the stretch.

Gotta keep getting wins. Doesn't matter who is playing or who the opponent is.

Bron said when he came to LA that he doesn't want his kids to keep moving. Before - they used to live in LA during summer and during the nba season they'd move to wherever he was playing. He's not leaving Lakers till he's done playing.

LOL. He's responding to the media criticism it seems.

If he wouldn't thrust his body into defenders and try to make impossible passes with no passing lane he might cut down half his turnovers. He's also got to cut out that bank shot he tries off the baseline, lol.

Monk

Team is playing better and better. Great game tonight. Offense is firing on all cylinders.

Gotta cont. this - next 4 games against Grizzlies, Nuggets, Kings, and Jazz. Play well in those games and have a chance to really show this team is in its way.
