We gonna be there live nd direct!!! Tonight we gettin a quick win
👗 🧱 will come off the bench!!
Westbrook, Reaves, JTA, Lebron, Davis should be the starting 5 if Westbrook can't be productive start Nunn instead
Russ pls make sure all camera angles are right this time to not look bad again
Russ coming off the bench 👀 👏
Anthony, Lebron, Anderson, Reaves, and Nunn…. best lineup
Don't go small
Russ, walker, lebron, ad, bryant
The huddle thing has been blown way out of proportion and so many people making things something they are not!
Pat cannot start over Nunn and Russ
Russ reaves bron ad bryant
Westbrook start for a few minutes, then come off the bench with Damian Jones at center. Austin Rives fills in for him. Brant will start. Bring back Dewight Howard and let him play power forward off the bench.
This was lazy journalism. Pregame Russ could be seen paling around with Lebron as the latter did his football antics. Furthermore, you want a man to change the pregame routine he's done his entire career, for optics, so people won't get their fee-fees hurt? The journalist should have gone back and looked at what he did in OKC, Houston and Washington to see if this was an outliers. One of the guys we JUST signed talked about how great of a teammate and "big brother" Russ was/is to him. This obsession with every single thing he does is weak.
They saying Russ coming off the bench v kings
Schroeder now has finger injury and is out
Flight Mike Laker channel already showed the unedited videos of Russ skipping Huddles and it was a straight lie to paint Russ in a bad light
TRADE RUSS
I cant wait for Troy Brown to play. I hope we helps solve the lack of wing depth that we have
Nunn Bev Lebron AD and Jones rotation Russ Walker Reaves JTA and Bryant. With Dennis Cole and Ryan getting minutes if foul trouble happens in the game or injuries and rest days
Rumor Russ comes from the bench against kings.
Let Westbrook come off bench.
If we’re using pre season logic to judge the Lakers then by that same logic the1-4 Lakers are better than the 0-5 Bucks… It’s either “Just the Pre season” or it’s not🤷🏿♂️
Imagine Bron thinking 💭 "And I thought I had it bad with Kyrie 🤦🏾♂️, what da fuck Broadie?"
get ready for an L
Russ. Gonn go out like Iverson if he doesn't. Change
We need heild and turner
Russ has not been positive in the starting lineup. The other thing is. Lebron, AD and whoever the starting five will be. Should have played every pre-season game to build that chemistry. That hasn't happened. The lakers have a difficult schedule at the start of the season. . They can easily be 0 – 5 at the start of the season but these guys are sitting out games. No different from last year.
Woj reported Russ will come off the bench today. Laker Nation needs a live stream 🍿
Patric Beverly is not a rival he is antagonist and a physical danger as bad as someone who punches your face
Get Rid of Russ!!!!
Worriors, Clippers, Trail Blazers, Nuggets and Minnesota. Very well could be 0-5 start. Oh wait then the Nuggets again.
let Russ be Russ with 2nd unit.👍
Nunn, Walker, AD, Bron and Bev starting tonight
Keep the CORE AD, LEBRON and WESTBROOK for 2022-2023 and beyond true Lakers Nation fans!
Imagine LeBron coming off the bench running the second unit? Never would it happen, but teams would really have to adjust. It would allow Russ to be “Russ” with AD.
