At some point it seems like he'll have to give up on being bigger/stronger AND faster/more explosive than everyone else. I'm wondering whether he is going to get stronger and become more of a slower pace post bully like he did for a season in Miami, or lose a little more weight and basically play point guard like he did in his first stint in Cleveland. Since they shipped off Ball and Hart for Davis, I'm thinking the latter.

F*** it - LAkers should just let this Aggie great play PG next season...

It seems a lot LAkers fans do actually want them to sign Caruso...he seems to have become a cult hit player there.

Hard to believe the white guy with highlight reel dunks became a cult favorite for a team with millions of rich white supporters.

We have to see what the rest of the LAkers roster looks like, but let's face the facts. LeBron is a still an amazing player and physical freak. He'll 'load manage' the next regular season probably skipping certain games and coasting on defense to conserve himself. And then assuming Lakers make playoffs, he'll probably be a beast and very difficult for other teams to deal with next May/June.

It's going to be really interesting to see how the NBA handles this considering how much teams jack up the price for big name teams rolling through... just to have the guy you paid the $$$ for not show up. Definitely not a good fan experience.
