Poor LeBron LMAO

Bradley opted out.

[KVB]

[sosawestbrook]

HUGE loss. Bradley's versatility on defense was everything. especially against a team like the Clippers. there is no one they can sign to replace him on that side of the ball but JR is def a better shooter and that chemistry with LeBron is a nice plus.

its still gonna be Clippers in 6 anyway.

[SteveKerrsJunk]

Lebron should've called a timeout. Why didn't he?

[jjgold]

Does Lebanon sleep with him??

[manny24]

JR's pipe game strong

[MrSink]

I thought he is running for UFC 10day contract

[jjgold]

[carolinakid]

i just hope james will not even make it to the title games

[pologq]

bradley not playing is a big loss. lakers depth already an issue against the clippers before he decided to opt out. smith is not the answer.

[JAKEPEAVY21]

LeBrick better than Jordan??

[Jayvegas420]

whoa whoa wait....
TIMEOUT....TIMEOUT

[hotcross]

sorry Jay but you are out of timeouts and will be penalized

[navyblue81]

LeBrick better than Jordan??

Lmao. To be honest, Lebron not even better than Kobe. #24 was the closest thing we’ve seen to MJ.

I don't know about that -they might even be better. KCP does similar things as a super-charged defender. Waiters is the real winner here because he now has a shot at being a 6th man. The knock on the Lakers all season is that they don't have a scoring guard in their rotation... well now they do.

[JIBBBY]

Avery is a big loss,.. Solid defender on the perimeter which the lakers need.. Lakers just took a gut punch..

Solid roll player, he will be missed.

[sk0002]

what a weak ass idiot, using family as an excuse to not playing... is it the end of the world to not see your family for a couple months?? LIke penetrate outta here with that garbage, lost all my respect for him. Totally unprofessional, you are getting paid millions to do your job.

the move to add another combo guard off the bench was supposed to work in conjunction with the current roster. it throws the rotations off now since Bradley was the starting 2guard on this team all year. trust me when I say he will be sorely missed. that guy can guard some of the best players on an island by himself. he's an asset in a playoff atmosphere. I can't say that about KCP yet.

No one can guard anyone in the NBA. If your job description is defend in the NBA, you aren't indispensable. He wasn't the starting 2-guard anyway, he was the "1". Green was/ is the 2-guard. KCP will now be the 1.

uh the league leader in assists would be the 1, LeBron James.

all I'm saying is when it comes to big moments there is certain guys you can trust & others not so much. Bradley is the best 1on1 defender this league has seen since Tony Allen's prime era. he'll pick you up full court all fukking game & won't think twice about it. that starts to wear on guys in the 4thquarter. KCP is like a JACK RUSSELL TERRIER. once he gets going its hard to pull him back to reality. he takes insanely dumb shots & gets tunnel vision quick. Bradley on the other hand is a ROTTWEILER. level headed, intelligent & protector of the family.

[vitterd]

Kobe better than lebron?? Lmao. What??? Not even close.

[johnnyvegas13]

Lakers will b fine

Bradley costing them the ship ?

cmon guys

[rm18]

Grizzlies in 5.

Best defender since t.allen? But what year? Players don't maintain defensive ratings in real life as they do in computer games lol. Who has he defended well this year that KCP hasn't? Every time I've seen him try he's gotten lit up! KCP meanwhile has had some highlight reel moments defensively this year. Probably not much in it either way.

I think he's one of the guys that has been hurt most by the rule changes. Gotta have size to defend in the NBA these days because you sure can't jump!

[asiagambler]

Bradley washed up. Not a big loss

[IBetYou]

Amazing that some people think he's better than Waiters. Waiters has had his problems but talent wise he's got the total package offensively and he can really defend. Bradley is still serviceable but he will be out of the league in 2-3 years.

[IBetYou]

I take back my comment about size. Pat Beverley is an elite defender...

[shocka1212]

lol

[rm18]

Chris Paul can defend too

I'm not really debating who's better between Bradley or KCP because thats a toss up. my whole point was that I'd rather have Bradley in a 7game series against the Clippers because you need DOGS to beat DOGS. that Clippers team is full of PITBULLS. them boys are no joke & now that the home court dynamics have been completely removed, we are talking about a pure basketball setting where the finer details absolutely matter. KCP is just too unpredictable for my taste whereas Bradley is a certified veteran with nearly 40games of playoff experience under his belt. more importantly, he proved during that timeframe that he can shutdown some of the best scorers in this league when it matters most.

cmon guys

Johnny, they weren't gonna win regardless of if he played or not.

[sosawestbrook]

Chris Paul can defend too

lots of people forget this. he's been a top tier defender since he got in the league.
