    Reaves is growing. Heโ€™s getting the experience. Everyoneโ€™s gotta go through it and learn from it. Thatโ€™s how you get better. Peopleโ€™s expectations are way too high for every player in the NBA. They should do a show about the media and how bad they are too. Absolute trash human beings

    great for reaves as an individual but bad for the lakers if they want to win. if lebron stays, more complaints about needing help will be coming.

    Lebron James has had 23 Years and only won 3 championships but Steve A Smith is lying about Lebron winning championships with Lakers. Delusional

    Good for him but he’s worth ~35m only based on his performance. Antman is 48m and Brunson getting lower at 40m. Let that sink in.

    What is the NBA becoming? A one dimensional player who gives up as many points as he scores making 45+ million a year. His teammate Luka โ€œDONUTโ€ is even worse. They are 2 of the worst DEFENSIVE players in the history of the NBA. COMICAL! Kobe, rest his soul, would never approve of this nonsense. LAKER INSANE NATION๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚.
