Lebron is a Laker!!!

The first and last time I wrote something about the Lakers was way back 10 years ago! And wouldn't you know it, the topic I wrote on was about the offseason moves made by the Kupchak-led front office in 2008.

Today, Kobe has been retired for 3 years already. But today, the best player in the NBA is a member of the Lakers! Lebron James part of the Purple and Gold. It's still so surreal for a hardcore fan like me to see something like this happen. Lakers fans all over the world suffered through several years of mediocrity and now we are finally back in the limelight.


However, the mighty Golden State Warriors still reign supreme in the NBA and they got even better with the addition of Demarcus Cousins. Lebron on the other hand will have to rely on the young guys Kyle Kuzma, Brandon Ingram, Josh Hart and Lonzo Ball. Together with them, an odd bunch of veterans will also try to help The King topple the Warriors. Rajon Rondo, Lance Stephenson, Javale McGee and Michael Beasley are all set to take on the challenge of bringing the Lakers back to their glory days.


A new era will begin this year and the Lakers faithful are excited to see their team get back to the Playoffs after their 6-year drought.
