LeBron James brought back his headband to practice, and now it's time for every Los Angeles Lakers fan to overreact in some way or completely overanalyze the situation.

Everything LeBron James does is news. Even rocking a white headband in practice. The replies to Dave McMenamin's tweets range from jokes about LeBron's hairline to calls for James to bring back his defense rather than his headband.

It's interesting to watch Lakers fans react to their early-season struggles. Luke Walton is under fire and even some of the fans are turning on LeBron. It's wild to think that fans are having such a knee-jerk reaction to the first 10 games of the season. The defense has looked bad — including James' — and the offense has been spotty at times.

There are definitely reasons for Lakers fans to be worried. The slow start comes with concerns — especially in the loaded Western Conference. That being said, 10 games is too small of a sample size to say that the Lakers are broken beyond repair. Generally speaking, LeBron's teams go through these regular-seasons slumps before finding their rhythm and winning when it matters.

So as Aaron Rodgers once said to Packers fans, “R-E-L-A-X.” It's too early to declare the season in peril or call for Walton's ousting. Things haven't looked good early, but LeBron James has earned the benefit of the doubt from us. This year could always be different, but we'll have to wait and see where the Lakers finish up this season.
