far as Davis goes that's one thing that he has or that LeBron has that Steph doesn't which is like a legitimate in his prime all-star you know superstar and you know you could tell LeBron's tried to really the last four years like tried to transition it to the point that's like hey you're Davis you're the one and I'm the two
And I think you saw it in their title year, the bubble year, right? He was incredible. I covered that Lakers team on that bubble title run.

I mean, he's certainly a defensive player of the year candidate. He's scoring better. I think JJ Reddick's has a little bit more of a complex, you know, better offense to suit Davis. And He's having a good season, but to me, he's not the concern, right? I think you have a legitimate co-star for LeBron. The concern is like rotation spot three through 11 on that team.
