THE LOS ANGELES LAKERS MAKE A HUGE SIGNING!



THE LOS ANGELES LAKERS MAKE A HUGE SIGNING!

Spencer dwiti with Rob pinka are you going to read something into that that might seriously are you going to read something into that I’m a fan but um y’all get to know so let y’all that as the trade deadline arrived many Los Angeles Laker fans were wondering what

The future of this team was going to look like were they going to trade D’Angelo Russell and get Deon Murray were they going to make some gigantic string of Trades to fix this team just like they did last year and when nothing happened we were told to keep our eyes

On the buyout market and as a result something significant happened and no it’s not the Los Angeles Lakers signing Killian Hayes so before we get to the content make sure you drop like subscribe and turn on our notifications to help the channel grow we’re almost at 900,000 subscribers and now that we get

Before they move the lines and you lose your advantage and thank you prize pick for the sponsor M check 1212 what’s going on everybody as a result of D’Angelo Russell’s recent strong play for the Los Angeles Lakers they made the decision to keep D’Angelo Russell and this was after a very emotional month

And a half for D’Angelo Russell that even included him tearing up on the bench during a strong performance for the Lakers and then giving this emotional interview in regards to his gratitude for being on the Lakers I mean that’s what we all dreamed of doing you

Know you go back to Growing Up you practice moves you tried things in your backyard never thought you’d actually be able to get the chance to do it never thought I’d be able to throw a bounce pass live to LeBron James in the game so things like that just keeps you young

Keep you enjoying the game just fun now you guys know me I’m a gigantic D’Angelo Russell fan ever since he was drafted by the Lakers with the number two overall pick in the 2015 NBA draft but there were two major problems on the horizon one could D’Angelo Russell keep up this

Level of production all the way to the end of the season and into the playoffs would he disappear again like he did last year versus the Denver Nuggets in the Western Conference finals and two once the season is over would D’Angelo Russell opt out and leave in free agency

I can’t really give a definitive answer in regards to number one but what I could say in regards to number two is I feel like D’Angelo Russell structured his contract in a way so he could continue playing with LeBron James I mean don’t get me wrong if you could get

Significantly more money elsewhere there’s always going to be the temptation to leave but I feel like the reason why he has that one plus oneye deal is primarily because what if LeBron leaves after this season which is something that nobody is talking about and it’s something that we’ll cover in a

Video later on right when the trade deadline was starting to approach I floated the possibility of the Lakers doing absolutely nothing it didn’t make sense to trade D’Angelo Russell and additional players that would give you depth to the Atlanta Hawks to bring in Deonte Murray who is a much better

Player on defense but would be a marginal upgrade to say the least at the same time the Los Angeles Lakers had a huge huge need at point guard not offensively but at least defensively and the options that they had on the buyout Market were very exciting but I’m not

Necessarily sure if they would answer that question now following the deadline we found out that the Lakers long-term plans are kind of ridiculous I must admit I mean CBS Sports is saying that the Lakers feel confident in landing Donovan Mitchell this summer and may choose to forego trades this season to

Have all of their resources available for a Blockbuster offer now bear in mind it’s not just Donovan Mitchell they’re targeting they’re also reportedly targeting Kyrie Irving and Trey young and to be honest I believe this because it seems like each and every year the Los Angeles Lakers have been trying to

Target Trey young probably because they need someone to pass the torch off to Once LeBron James leaves I’m not necessarily sure if Kyrie Irving coming to the Lakers is going to happen because the Lakers could have potentially made that happen this past off season and

They chose not to but the jury really is out on Donovan Mitchell and Trey young as it stands now if the Cleveland Cavaliers continue riding their momentum into the playoffs I don’t think Donovan Mitchell is going to get traded but at the same time there have been many times

In NBA history where you’ve seen teams have remarkable regular seasons get to the playoffs fall significantly short of their expectations and even consider blowing up the core it sounds unfathomable that the Cavs would want to move on from Donovan Mitchell in the middle of a win streak but you never

Know what happens in 4 months time and yes I’m very much aware that this falls into the category of the Lakers believing that they’re going to get absolutely everybody so now that the plan is clear Los Angeles Lakers want to wait till the off season so they could

Get Donovan Mitchell or Trey young or Kyrie Irving or all three there’s still the question of how did the Los Angeles Lakers improve their team bear in mind this is a team that currently stands in ninth place in a loaded Western Conference might I add I know it’s not

Exciting that they’re in ninth place but when you consider that Ninth Place and fifth place are literally three games away from each other then it tells a much different story and at this point the Lakers feel tremendous pressure to make the most out of LeBron james’ Prime which has been seemingly going on

Forever I mean his latest play against the Denver Nuggets is nothing short of amazing for those of you guys that missed it LeBron James made one of the most remarkable no look passes that I’ve ever seen against the Denver Nuggets and this is probably one of the most

Dramatic no look passes that I think I’ve ever seen because immediately fans were wondering whether or not this was intentional or not with the fan even posted this clip Montage of LeBron James making a similar type of pass throughout his entire career LeBron James would even come out and tweet that after all

This time I’m still proving them wrong I mean you would think they know by now but you know when it comes to me somebody would post the alternate angle of LeBron James clearly having the ball slip through his hands and going to Anthony Davis’s hands and dunking it

This is just one of those hilarious LeBron isms but that being said there is a question of how are the Los Angeles Lakers going to improve their team well they clearly need need to improve their team a little bit and the answer became very clear during the trade deadline you

See during the trade deadline the Brooklyn Nets traded Spencer dwiti to the Toronto Raptors for Dennis schruder which was one of the few trades that they’ve made I made a whole video today on the Brooklyn Nets it was uploaded early this morning in regards to how they made a horrific mistake at the

Trade deadline I’ll leave it for you guys in the end screen but one of those trades was trading away Spencer Den witty and getting back Dennis shuder and Thaddius Young from the Toronto Raptors which yes I’m as surprised as you are that thatti is Young is still in the

Freaking NBA then he would get bought out almost immediately and just like that we got one of the most attractive individuals in the buyout Market no not like that you freaks Spencer didn’t witty’s value offensively cannot be understated he’s very good at running the pick and roll he can run isos he can

Run post-ups and averages 1.04 points per possession he could instantly provide offense to any team that would require and he’s not that far removed from doing so at anite level there were rumors that he was on strike for the Brooklyn Nets this past year and he was unhappy playing for them but instantly

There were two teams that were contenders to sign him either the Dallas Mavericks or the Los Angeles Lakers and for those of you guys that don’t know Spencer deny is also a huge spokesperson for cryptocurrency I mean in 2019 he converted his $34 million contract extension into cryptocurrency which is

One hell of an investment looking back at it because the closing price of Bitcoin was 8,299 39 for the end of September and right now it’s about $46,000 but since this is a very highly volatile asset Spencer Den witty has gotten memd for this quite some time whenever cryptocurrency went down

Including about a year ago when Kyle kozma made fun of him even saying the only way you’ll ever be worth your contract is if the NBA finally gives you your wish of getting paid in crypto check the markets enjoy the clicks now the reason I’m bringing this up up is

Spencer didn’t what he needed to pick between the Lakers and the Mavericks and when you consider that the Lakers play in crypto Arena the answer was automatically there I mean the moment Spencer diny got bought out he already liked the Tweet about the Los Angeles Lakers being interested in him amidst

Buyout rumors this fan tweeted Lakers fans this is the Spencer Den wty we will be getting in La I want to come home has been his mantra for years and he liked the Tweet the very next day Spencer Den witty is next to Rob pinka watching the

Los Angeles Lakers face off against the New Orleans Pelicans once that happened we knew that the writing was on the wall and Sham channa made it official today according to Sham tranna Spencer dwy plans to sign with the Los Angeles Lakers after he clears waivers so what are the baskball implications of this

Well it’s a little bit of a mixed bag first of all it reunites Spencer Den witty and D’Angelo Russell and for those of you guys that were a fan of the Brooklyn Nets during the 2018 to 2019 season you knew that these two were a very fun pair but in terms of a

Basketball what does it mean well here’s what you’re getting in Spencer Den witty like I said before Spencer Den witty is a great half court shock Creator and is excellent at getting his teammates involved he averages six assists per game but at the same time he averages

Less than two turnovers per game which is very similar to his old friend from Brooklyn D’Angelo Russell who also is achieving the same feat the problem is that this doesn’t really solve the Lakers primary problem they needed a defensive-minded guard that could slow down a point guard like Jamal Murray

Should they bump into the Denver Nuggets once again during the playoffs and then there are times that he’s a little bit too aggressive and tries to force baskets but apart from that he’s a remarkable closeout attacker he gets 1.2 points per spot of possession and he easily becomes the Lakers biggest guard

At 6’5 and 215 lbs which is a little bit thicker than D’Angelo Russell at the end of the day for a buyout pickup it’s a remarkable pickup but I don’t necessarily know if it’s going to solve the Lakers biggest problems he’s been very solid in the past for all the teams

That he’s been on but the Lakers biggest problem and biggest weakness still persists my biggest fear is that this could potentially give Darvin ham an opportunity to go with this small lineup again and I really hope he doesn’t get too chaotic with lineup adjustments and we fall into the same place we were

About 2 to 3 months ago at the very end of the day he’s a very talented individual and I’m happy that he’s a Los Angeles Laker but at the same time I still have concerns about what else we’re going to do to improve on the defensive side of the ball what could we

Do let me know in the comment section down below what do you guys think about this move aside from that I’m your boy Mike I’m dropping our mic until our next upload

  1. Pelinka did what he could with what he had. Props for him at least making something happen. Hope vando can get back soother rather than later

  2. I wonder 🤔 if D'Angelo is gonna CRY about Mr.Crpyto Dinwiddie throwing LBJ lobs now!! What a joke 🤡 Spencer is! He is gonna LOSE 💰 Now! & playing time

  3. THE FLAKE show still ain't gonna get out the 1st round & why do rumors still surface of trading for another guard in the off season LMAO!

  4. Hey Mike I really like your content & channels & as a DallasCowboys I enjoy that U are a fan too! But COME on MAN! THE FLAKE SHOW is probably gonna have a wet DREAM of luka#77 but LeBron is REALLY gonna force his way OUT after getting bounced!

  5. Gabe Vincent so ufortunate and disappointing he's been out for like the entire season when in his entire tenure with the Heat he was always healthy. Smh.

  6. This is 100% lebrons last season as a laker. The fact that the lakers didn’t move in the trade market says a lot and I think it makes sense for both parties to

  7. This is a great pickup for LA

    They should traded Gabe for a big

    Too many guards

    If not, sign Dwight for the remainder of the season.

    I said it last year before the deadline. If they would had signed Dwight, they would win the 🏆.

  8. Anyone but Trae Young. He is way too heavy on ball handling. You won't win a championship if your team resolves around this guy.

  9. Just the length these videos are you make now, got me back into reading. Like it's easier to read to figure out what happened. You need to make a change fast man. Everything you do since the last year and a half has just become overly long videos to promote gambling. Your sponsor is longer than the amount of time it took me to find "Spencer, to join lakers after clearing waivers" on google. You noticed the views dropped, and you see the rise of channels like AM Hoops etc. That man does the same promo, and still gets to the point faster. Again, no bad intentions. Just fix this.

  10. Don't know how anybody wouldn't like this move. Got a guy who was shooting %40 from 3 in Dallas (2021 – 23), great playmaker, and not a horrible defender (averages just under a steal and half a block per game). The best part is they got him for basically nothing. Now if they could pick up a shooter like Joe Harris, they'll be a tough out in the playoffs. Plus they kept their flexibility for the offseason. Win, win, win

  11. I gotta be honest every time i see a youtuber post about the lakers, i see the comments and it's hate on lebron. Like come on most of these are mad lebron is even being talked about. This video is about the team he is on why would u not mention him. lebron is the second greatest player of all tine and i think the dissrespect on his name is getting out of control

  12. I wanted to apologize to Rob Pelinka for being over critical of the Lakers shortcomings this year. Rob Pelinka has done a remarkable job based on the Russell Westbrook trade that crippled the future of the Lakers. A decision he didn't make and don't deserve the criticism for it. My apologies to Rob Pelinka, continue to keep up the good work and much success.

  13. It's a move. Does it move the so called needle for the Lakers? Not so much. But he's an insurance. I know that everyone been harping on defense as of late, but this Lakers squads' offense dictates defense. All season, I've seen the Lakers play hard, keeping the game under 110 points, but it's a struggle for them. And they can't make the big shot when the game gets close. They seem to be more comfortable, playing loose on offense and will just make some key defensive stops if they need it.

  14. They need to get rid of lebron, he's the real problem. LeBron is the goat of padding stats. His defense is laughable, and all he does is barrel down the lane aimlessly looking for a foul so he can miss his free throws. He's a cancer and needs to retire. His play is why NBA ratings are down.

  15. Dinwiddie is a co-founder of Calaxy built on Hedera (HBAR) crypto – HBAR is the fastest and most secure crypto, it has performed way more transactions than any other crypto (over 40 billion) – Google, IBM, Dell, DLA Piper, Tata, Boeing, LG etc on Hedera governing council. Calaxy turns web2 social media into web3 social infrastructure! Dinwiddie in LA will help Hedera a lot! He's a great bb player too!

  16. That 3 guard lineup might actually work. Spencer is big enough to guard wings and is too quick for most

  17. No, dlo, ar, rh need to make it their team. Stop the old man grow old, step up and become Lakers legends.

  18. Everything the lakers does is huge and game changing, every other team is doomed and making mistakes. Mike the jew should make a video titled” lakers make huge mistake not trading washed Lebron James. Mike is a laker ball liver, they’re garbage af.
