Stop watching First Take clips if all you’re going to do is complain that they only talk about the Lakers & Lebron. Every video ppl complain about the same thing, yet still click the video. Like are y’all bots? lol & I dislike it too, but it’s to be expected

This is always the trend with lebron teams.
He relocates. That’s a year or 2 to get the players he needs to help cover his flaws.
wins a questionable championship.
then teammates get tired of him, a coach might get fired, and players are getting blamed left and right for him not being able to win.
