?For the Love of God Be Realistic?: NBA Fans Rip LeBron James? Lakers to Shreds After Latest Trade Reports

LeBron James and the Los Angeles Lakers have tried to steady their tempestuous ship this season. While they have gained some control on the court, fans believe that the organization is still struggling on the back end of things. For starters, not many of their decisions have arguably worked in the team’s favor. For example, the narrative is that Russell Westbrook and Patrick Beverley have failed to create an All-Star-level impact. Additionally, many believe that the roster lacks wing-depth and three-point shooting. With these troubles swallowing the Lakers, new reports about a potential trade scenario has left NBA fans infuriated.

As per recent reports, the Los Angeles Lakers are ready to let go of Patrick Beverley and Kendrick Nunn. The verdict on Russell Westbrook‘s trade is still heavily uncertain. This is because Jeanie Buss and co. are reportedly contemplating his trade, considering his recent positive performances on the court. Having said that, the Westbrook card is supposedly still a big option. A report stated that the front office is interested in Bojan Bogdanovic, Evan Fourier, and Cam Reddish. However, information about an “ultimate pie-in-the-sky” scenario has left fans online in shambles.

LeBron James in recent games

The Lakers have now lost four of their last five games. The game against the Boston Celtics is probably the most painful one, as the Lakers launched an incredible comeback in the third and fourth quarters, only to lose in overtime. The team has had a few “almost” wins now but the Lakers haven’t come in clutch during such games so far.

During an interview, LeBron James was asked, “These almosts, what does it say big picture about this team”. The four-time champion claimed that these scenarios say nothing about the Lakers.

He said, “You’re talking to the wrong guy talking about ‘almost win.’ No. We lost.”?
