A healthy AD and lebron and this team can bear anyone. They just have to stay healthy!!! All roads will go through AD being dominant or not
Stop talking about this Garbage team lol
Nick Friedell is in the wrong line of work
All the Lakers need is a solid 6 game win streak
And they make the playoffs
Get above .500 and stay there and they will be fine.
Lakers healthy round 1 I like their chances against anyone
Pre angency meens he did get those players he wanted now instead of a bidding war for players in the free agency, he can now bring back everyone
Where will they ship Friedell now? Phoenix I presume.
Windy looks like he has indigestion
Ppl underestimating just how much better they got just off depth
8:29:38 Let’s just take a moment to congratulate how many hours and work was put in the vid!?
It is fabulous, and I think they deserve more than that.
So Nick u don’t expect AD to be healthy. Do u expect Kawhi to? PG13 to? cP3 to? KD to? Cmon man
I hate Nick friedell
Beasley was 0-6 from 3 but the Warriors still had to respect him and guard him from the perimeter. To have a threat like that is huge for our spacing
Dave is a pos reporter and Windhorst. ESPN need to hire real analysts.
Apple Fritter Nick Friddell.
This is not the bubble.
Too little too late
If they make the playoffs they have a shot at a ring
Lakers are not making the playoffs
The upgrade we get from not having RW is massive. I don't think most people truly understand just how bad he was for us. He was 3rd in the NBA in TOs per game. But if you look at the top 50 from the list of TOs per game he also had the 2nd worse FG%, 2nd worse 3%, 3rd worse FT%, and was 4th worse in PPG. He was amongst the league leaders in turnovers but amongst the worse in all other major categories. The juice we got from him was not worth the squeeze.
And let’s not forget the games we blew at least 6 point leads in the final minutes at least 6 games plus a bunch of games the refs sold we should be at least 6 games above 500
Just say it no one wants to play with bron
They could’ve won a lot of those games without the trade they just needed better execution to end games
It’s crazy how spot on brian be🤣🤣🤣
Amazing video and thank you for breaking it down!! Despite the economic downturn, I'm so happy 😊I have been earning $ 60,000 returns from my $9,000 investment every 21days.
Zion ignoring all the experts about his weight affecting his health is one of the most disappointing things ever.
I see why players hate Nick that dude just has a punchable face
