2018 – 2019 Los Angeles Lakers: Expectation…
LeBron James’s announcement that he would head to Los Angeles in 2018 was not nearly the media spectacle that ‘the decision’ was eight years prior, but it was still huge news for the NBA and especially the Lakers, who had been mired in mediocrity for nearly a decade. Joining James in L. A. was point guard Rajon Rondo, and while the roster still had holes, there were high expectations that James would bring a championship to the Lakers like he had for the Heat and Cavaliers before.
