18:05 ummm….they absolutely have a shooting problem. Besides D-Lo, not a single person on this roster has established themselves as a consistent outside threat for a sustained career. Even D-Lo is borderline, he is very inconsistent. They absolutely have a shooting problem and it’s very severe. They couldn’t make shots against the Nuggets in the WCF last year. It’s a HUGE problem.
I swear the moment a great shooter puts on a Lakers jersey, they lose their ability to shoot 😡😡😡
The perfect – REALISTIC – D’Angelo Russell trade target is Spencer Dinwiddie. On the surface they’re similar from a production standpoint, but Dinwiddie is a much better athlete. A better slasher and finisher at the cup. Dinwiddie is also 30 yrs old and a mature player – which DLo is not. Dinwiddie is also the superior defensive player here. What makes it realistic is that Dinwiddie is a free agent after this season.
Jason is a good basketball analyst UNTIL he starts talking about the Lakers. Totally biased when it comes to the Lakers. Yes, Jason, the Lakers are in fact a bad team. The worst start to a season in NBA HISTORY. 75 years. I’d say that qualifies as a bad team. Jason keeps referring to the end of LAST SEASON to back up his claims. The level of mental gymnastics here is absolutely stunning last season is over, period… New season, new team. Jason and the rest of the Lakers fanboi army grossly over-reacted to the off-season moves. People out here acting as if Christian Wood was some kind of all star player, It was absolutely ridiculous to watch the delusional way Lakers fans hyped up these role players, many of which have been waived from their former teams. Lebron James is almost 40 and is being asked to carry the whole team, meanwhile AD is a heavily overrated player, yes he is an elite defender, but the truth is he offers little more than fleeting glimpses of solid play, he is a very VERY inconsistent player… That is when he’s not injured and out of the lineup. You can blame injuries all you want to but the writing is on the wall… This team will be lucky to make the playoffs. Mid-season trades will NOT save this team.
Love your vids ! I think you’re the best at analyzing the game on YouTube but the amount of times you “UHM UHM UHM “ it’s very distracting bro
Unsure if Rui has to accompany DLo in these trade ideas..he’s useful against Denver’s wings and forwards. BUT if you tell me that we get a guy like Derozan back along with Caruso..I think that mitigates the loss of Rui because of course Derozan is still a hell of an athlete on the wing himself. And Derozan’s a better playmaker. Lest we forget that Derozan was all set to join the Lakers before they ditched that plan for Westbrick – unfortunately.
Bulls crumbling now and getting Derozan will be a great pick up
Guard play is Major issue revees is overrated and isn't a 3rd option he's just an over payed role player
Letting shurddre go was a major mistake and signing reddish and resignibg d lo the front office does one good thing and makes the roster better at trade deadline but got worse during the off-season
They aren't getting carried by the refs, that's the only reason they made the playoffs last year. They need a 45 to 10 free throw advantage to be good
Lakers won the offseason 😂
jason when you described dillon crooks, if i wasnt listening all those points could be about draymond. if anything dillon never kick someone in the nuts or in stomach or punch a teammate. if you’re saying things with a straight face about dillon but pretend to ignore what draymond has been doing for years that’s lack of integrity not that i expected from you who is a lebron/draymond d rider but still. it’s painful to listen to delusion and agenda
It’s gonna be painful watching some meaningless team give the Lakers quality assets for useless trash at the deadline again…
Any bad team can blow out a good team. It's too early to say who's bad or who's not right now.
The team is loading up again😅
You have a problem with dillon because you are a lebron fanatic. the minute he started engaging in mind games with lebron he was instantly hated by all his fanatics. i get it. doesn't make him disrespectful to the game.
Austin Reaves and Dlo aren't "excellent" by NBA standards … cmon fam
Dillion Brooks is good for the game. This is why people say new ball is soft because people like you whine over tough players. Brooks doesn't go out there trying to hurt people I think its reckless to even suggest he does that. Saying things like that is why I have issues with the media and a lot of youtubers in general who are casuals in general and just say things based on what a couple of people talked about on X. Its all based on personal bias and you can ruin someone's career like that.
Probably because Lakers didnt get enough "CALLS" and "MISSING PLAYERS" LOL! Every team has injury report you just need to know how to use the bench players. Coach is really bad and people though Lakers were good..yeah yall made some trades and some good role players and shooters yet let them all go and thought playing big is a good thing. Usually a team makes big changes can ride the wave temporarily like the Lakers. Coach lacks a system and mostly rely on LBJ/AD thats about it and other players jack up shots and hope to go in if not yall getting blown out. Dont forget Lakers coach last play to have Reddish a non 3 point shooter 15% to get open looks from LBJ…LOL. If it wasnt LBJ Lakers havent won a single game…All comebacks. Big problems even if fully healthy team it isnt the same every year thats why dont hype the Lakers too much.
Beverly and Draymond both are hated by many fan bases for being dirty ass players lol. Green gets respect because he's actually a super great defender but he's done some dirty stuff and he's always screaming at refs and being obnoxious af on the court lol. Beverly is only liked by non-homers because he's funny as hell and his antics can be very entertaining. Dillon brook is probably as good as if not better then Beverly defensively but he's just unlikable, has dirty plays, talks unwarranted shit, and has like a top 5 punchable face in the leauge.
Dec 15th is when Dlo can be traded
