It’s simple!! AD is healthy, they win, AD is out, they mainly lose. It’s literally that simple
Kyrie would look good in a Lakers uniform
Lebron is the goat, you know the vibes
kd wasn't a baby when they lost in the finals! people need to stop saying that he was in his 5th year your and established superstar by then
Keyshawn has the worst basketball analysis ever
Make the season 72 get the all star weekend on the 33rd game then after the break at game 52 have the play-in tournament teams 7-10 then whoever gets the 7-8 seed their season continues the 9-10 seed don’t so we aren’t wasting time for bad teams and boring games the last 16 games of the season before the playoffs and it gives teams incentives to go hard the regular season to get that extra week or so for rest then once the best 16 teams are left have them play each other for new seedings 1-16 no conference just the best 16 teams and they play the last 16 games for new playoff seeding then start the playoffs first round best of 3 second round best of 5 then the rest of the playoffs are best of 7 it’s a win win for the fans and the players since they need more rest give them an incentive to play games but also give them more rest if they do
D lo and all this talented young depth > aging kyrie
Bruh, these ESPN shows are brutal🤦🏾♂️ FS1 lapping
I actually like this show with just the 2 of them! Just sayin!!! 😏
Shiddddd I want Kyrie on the Lakers
I’m sorry but this is much more entertaining without jWill
We don’t want kyrie nomore
Chris Paul is on 40 M contract thru 2025 kyrie can’t go there
Kyrie not coming to the Lakers
Great Father, Mr. Keshawn!
Kd still on a stacked team idk y’all not putting pressure on him ..
It'll take about 3-5 more games before Lebron finally realizes the Lakers won't catch up, and he quits. Lebron can still carry a team but chooses not to because he wants to stay healthy enough to play with his son. He's not going to kill himself playing 45 minutes a game to will them to the playoffs.
Lakers are to get a ton of flack because they did not use Westbrook right and he had to take the majority of blame. His family had to put up with being harassed in public. If the Lakers win 22 of their next 27 games, maybe then he could be blamed. When the Lakers land in the 11th-12th spot, who will be blamed?
A lot of trades happened this season. Loyalty is nowhere to be found
Excuse that kd was young when he lost to lebron but when lebron was 23 and lost to the spurs no one used that excuse for him
These two idiots have no idea what they’re talking about 😂
KD was a puppy when he went up against lebron yet you all hold Lebron at fault for losing to Spurs in 07 he was only 23 lol
Kyrie is going to be a Laker without a doubt
Max is so cringe
Throughout Lebron's career I don't think there's been more scrutiny or pressure than these last two years on the Lakers, especially this last month or so. Sheesh ESPN calm down
How can you mention all time great guards that wore the suns jersey without saying steve nash and jason kidd's name.
Lakers need kyrie, it will let lebron finally play with his son!
3 straight losses after the all star break and Lebron will give up … we have all seen him give up numerous times.
The deepest team usually makes the deepest run in the playoffs. After the trade deadline, the deepest team in the NBA is the Los Angeles.
It’s probably gonna take something like DLo Bamba and a first round pick to get Kyrie on a sign and trade ??
It's players egos that get in the way with teaming up with lebron. Which is rightfully so. If i teamed up with lebron and we won a chip, it'll be more his than mine in the eyes of the world..
hope kyrie doesn’t go to lakers
Do you think the Lakers can beat the Warriors on Thursday?
the Lakers should sign Dario Saric from the buy out market.High IQ,Underated passer,good 3 point shooter.Makes winning plays and key shots in key moments.
Define him at 38 years old in his 20th season who for some reason still has to carry the Lakers? Ridiculousness 😂 I can't wait for some of these other players they put in the same greatness convo as him to become 38 it's gonna be laughable as they ride a bench or already out of the league.
He will choke
Load Management LeBron needed a Pandemic 3 month vacation to win that Bubble-wrapped Ring
Kevin Durant was the leading scorer and called him a puppy
It’s crazy to me that in a race this tight LeBron would break the record and then sit against Portland and Golden State who they needed wins against, and even the Bucks which is a bit less important but still a loss.
I don’t know how I’d feel if I was a Lakers fan lol
This season will not define Lebron. He has made it as high as he will ever peak. Top 5 all time. 🤷🏽♂️
Playoffs in the west is going to be crazy! You got Lebron, Steph, KD, and Kawhi all on different teams, in the same conference. And those are just the older guys.
First of all kyrie is a team cancer. Second is that we are assuming AD will be healthy. Also Lebron will be 39. Lakers aren’t contending anytime soon. Not with a rising denver and memphis team. Luka around. And a full strength suns team
