All-time greats at 34 years old making All-NBA teams

[3ball]

Not bad OP...not bad

Lebron getting injured IS part of his decline honestly...that's what happens when you get older.

20-14 record pre-injury equals 48 wins, like the Clippers

but the Lakers lose the tie-breaker, so no playoffs regardless of injury

And everyone knows the Lakers had the easiest first half schedule and the toughest 2nd half - that's why the Lakers were 28-27 with lebron - nowhere near the playoffs

But keep burying your head in the sand and ignoring facts - maybe next time something happens, you can be even MORE shocked.. .. ..

This post is meaningless. No one knows how well the Lakers would have been if Lebron played 80 games or so. Also the other Lakers best players missed a ton of games due to injury as well.

Lakers went 15-8 with Lebron/Kuz/Ball/Ingram playing together...so I could also say they would have MADE the playoffs if they were all healthy based on your logic.
