Congratulations ESPN for the 100th Lakers video today.
And Is Perkins still on TV? Bizarre.
This is why LeBron should not be compared to MJ. he’s always lacked the mentality the “goat” should have with many acts of cowardice in his career
@ESPN yall do know it's more than the mf Lakers to talk about right?
Tim Legler is one of the best analysts on ESPN
If the Lakers don’t tank the game and win, they better give it their all against the Nuggies
Is malika still dating dave mcmeniman? Lmao
Lakers lose to avoid Denver
Yall need to keep your faith out of AD
Lakers better win Tonight because there is ZERO guarantee you would win the next One.
Zion is going off tonight
We all know, Lebron would not want to win this match up tonight. Haha Refs can’t help them against DEN. 😂😂😂
Will the Lakers tank to avoid the Nuggets
Zion ain’t it! Didn’t yall call him the next Lebron?
ZION The Man will triumph over False Queen LeBum
Purple & Gold Ref's already warm it up for tonight..!
Lmao Zion looks tiny next to LeBron 😂😂
Nobody: ….
Perk: ZIAHYAWN GOTTA BE ZIYAHYAWN
Anyone that is saying Lakers are a bad match up for the nuggets is crazy – that super computer already knows how to beat em. Nuggets aren’t a deep team, they got a solid 6/7 man rotation. It’s on the Lakers guards to foul out Murray and KCP before Jokic gets them going.
Dave and malika keeping it professional while dating
Nba needs zion to take that leap…
Pelicans, I don't think so, I like them but not ready.
Who will have the most impact tonight, Lebron or the refs. I predict Lakers will shoot twice the number of free throws than the Pelicans.
Zions far from a superstar
We gotta find a way to stop ESPN from this Lakers content obsession. Boycott this crap, stop viewing and commenting.
The Lakers beats NO and then gets smoke by Denver in 5 games
ZAYYON😂
Everybody talking about Lakers losing on purpose to don’t play Denver. What about Pelicans? They might be very happy to lose tonight (as everyone expects) and then play at home vs Warriors or Kings to face OKC.
If Zion doesn’t show up at least they have the noise machine.
ATP AD needs to start wearing goggles
Zion cant and will not get through against Lebron. He's afraid😅
I think it's going to come down to coaching. I don't know Willie Green much but Lakers' coach hasn't shown much reason for confidence in making quick adjustments if the Pelicans figured out the right adjustments against them.
The pelicans are winning
I hjavent seen Lebron have a bad game against Zion since he came into the league. Remember the 19-20 season, LeBron was cooking, and does every game against him.
Lakers losing on purpose
Take a shot everytime Perk says Zioyhan" 😂😂🤣
ZAIYHON needs to be ZAIYHON
Its better for Lakers to lose the tonight game and play with either warrior or King and let the Pelicans Play with Denver
Perks just played the other host.
I got the Pelicans
Playoffs? The only time to watch basketball!
Malika and husband interview has to be conflict of interest? 😁
Malika interviews Dave like she doesn’t know him or he’s not her boyfriend
LeBron James is the most calculating, manipulative, and conniving basketball player in NBA history. It's been reported that he wants to tank the Pelicans game to avoid the Nuggets in the first round. He thinks the Lakers can beat the Kings or the Warriors at Crypto. They would then face the Thunder in the first round instead of the Nuggets. Michael and Kobe would NEVER consider tanking a playoff game. They wanted all the smoke.
The Lakers will go as far as the refs can take em 😂
Perkins needs to speak normal so sometimes ZY ON like wat ???, ZY ON 😂
With all the lakers tank talk distracting everybody the pels gonna tank this game. Pels 5-0 vs kings and 2-1 vs warriors including that must win last week at Chase.
