“Oh, But Nick, the future was bright. No it wasn’t.” nick wright responds to pushback over his claim that LeBron saved the Lakers.

@getnickwright What were the Thunders records before all their players developed what does the previous seasons have to do with anything ?

@getnickwright You can’t save a franchise that already had 16 championships prior 🤡. Also, you conveniently left out Anthony Davis. Anthony Davis and LeBron James help Lakers win a championship.

@getnickwright we only improved by two games. what is he talking about

Correlation doesn’t = Causation because you sucked for 5 previous seasons during a rebuild is so disingenuous. I’m not denying he didn’t save the Lakers but you explicitly saying that the Lakers weren’t turning it around when the players they currently had were able to yield AD.. buddy.

@getnickwright You’re the one making shit up with the Klutch Sports revisionist history. LeBron activated ZeRo DaRk ThIrTy and failed to make the playoffs his first season there. Pelinka then goes out and acquires AD. He is then able to win a title. He didn’t save a damn thing by himself.

@getnickwright LeBron missed the playoffs his first year here. AD was the difference maker.

The Lakers were literally and factually the worst team in basketball by combined W/L the 5 years before LeGOAT dragged them out of the primordial ooze Kobe left them in with his unflattering and shabby play. his last 2 seasons he led Lakers to their worst record in Franchise history in back to back years 🤣🤣😂😂😂

@getnickwright He stated a literal fact. In the 5 years preceding LeBron joining the Lakers, we won 27, 21, 17, 26, and 35 games- WORST in entire NBA during that 5 year stretch.

@getnickwright The propaganda is just nasty.

@getnickwright The lakers aren’t the cavs hell they’re not even the heat, the lakers weren’t in need of saving because they’re the fuckin LAKERS they were gonna be just fine regardless. Now that’s in jeopardy because they traded away all of their picks to please the phony goat

@getnickwright I’m starting to wonder why @getnickwright wasn’t apart of the recent espn layoffs. He make so many bad hot takes it makes skip bayles look like a real expert. Labron did not “save” the lakers by signing with them. He did however save the lakers when he decided to leave them.

@getnickwright This is a small sample size but this was the Thunders record before all there players fully had a chance to develop, kinda crazy how that works.

@getnickwright 2018 Lakers without Lebron: 35-47 missed playoffs 2019 Lakers with Lebron 37-45 missed playoffs Remember Lebron Lakers did not make playoffs until they traded for Anthony Davis!!!

@getnickwright Lebron saved the most known franchise in all of basketball. The Lakers and showtime are why we have what we have today in the nba. And lebron was nowhere around. Saved the lakers might be his dumbest take. And he is leading the way with dumb takea

@getnickwright I just want to know how to get some of that Klutch money by pretending to glaze Bron. I'll sellout MJ for a paycheck too

@getnickwright Come on Nick you know you’re being disingenuous. There’s no sense to bring up the 5 years before he got there when the young core they were developing was only 2 years in.

@getnickwright I think if lakers fans in 2018 knew that if they got Lebron it would only result in 1 ring and he runs away from them for another team they would take their chances with him the other option. Basically anyone with a brain would

@getnickwright The idea that the Lakers needed "saving" is absolutely ridiculous, but if you insist on going that route, then its AD who "saved" them, you disingenuous hack

@getnickwright Your narrative isn't true. Stop doubling down. Lakers fans know better. You aren't the authority of Lakers🏀. Go on with the Lebron talk. He's not here. He didn't save SHIT. 16 championships BEFORE he entered the building. Saving who? The Lakers aren't Cleveland Miami or 76ers

@getnickwright 🖕🏾🖕🏾🖕🏾🖕🏾🖕🏾🖕🏾🖕🏾

@getnickwright Lebron stan. Lebron puppet. all i can say.

@getnickwright Make what up he couldn’t win more than 37 games bro until AD came stop the cap the

@getnickwright AD saved the Lakers

@getnickwright Saved from what??? The lakers were ass with him 😂

@getnickwright Nick always claimed Luka was his son. I always knew he would sell his children just for the chance of flattering LeBron into a booty call.

@getnickwright We won’t know how the team would have meshed since LBJ’s impatience forced LA’s hand to trade for AD.

@getnickwright Nick Wright “if you disagree with me well you don’t know what you’re talking about because I think I’m smarter and better than everyone” Fucking loser dude.

@getnickwright Death, taxes, nick wright glazing LeBron. Lakers are an institution. They would’ve attracted or trade for any other start and would have been just fine. LA is the biggest market in the league

@getnickwright This idiot is the worst thing to happen to sports media

@getnickwright LeBron can’t fail, he can only be failed

@getnickwright I could care less about the Lakers
