Bamba is injured now, we need to sign Cousins from FA
The Mavs, Celtics, 76ers, Pacers losses that the refs decided for the the other team wouldn't have happened to this current roster because we probably wouldn't have allowed the other teams to close the gap in the score like they did at the end in those games. This latest Grizz game was a good example, even though AD was sidelined for a good portion of the first half which allowed Jaren Jackson to go on a tear, I knew that our defense would keep the game respectable until AD got back. And in the end it helped us because AD was fresh in the 4th and the gassed Tillman and Jackson couldn't keep up with him. Our role players then stepped up and kept the game from getting too close so the the refs couldn't cheat us.
You will never get what you need for AD or Bron just keep them.
This is a championship team now.
A Few hours later, we find out that KD is going to miss the rest of the regular season. The Lakers have a good chance of winning at least 1, if not both of the games against the Suns. At least 12-4 and maybe the 5th seed.
AD must be traded this summer. He is the reason why the team is on this big hole. The guy that is supposed to be on a retirement tour had to carry the team for most of the season. Remember what happened a couple of years ago against the Suns during the first round of the playoffs? The Lakers were winning 2-1 and he got hurt AGAIN.
Let's Go Lakers and we need to #8 spot instead of #9 spot & get back right on track 👣 👍🏾. What's going on #LakersNation family?
Lakers are in a Derby
Every game is a must win for the Lakers.
With Mo Bamba being out for a month should the Lakers sign a big as an additional back up to AD.
Street clothes Dlo.
Some of these fans are idiots I hate reading their suggestions
With Mo Bamba out for a month, shoukd the Lakers sign another Big on the buyout or do a ten day type of contract, for another back-up for AD?
The championship with the lowest winning percentage in the regular series was 2010 with .695
The NYK are Ballin' however, We have a chance to go 4-0 over Our Next 4 Games which, will put US @ 36-34 which, will be followed by 5 Home Games then, a favorable Final 5 Games in April where PHX might be resting their Stars & We get a chance to beat the Clippers.
You should start every episode with “If AD stays healthy” and end it with “ we hope AD stays healthy” because IF that happens we are certainly making the post season play in or not. Now as far as title chances go there is a 2nd big IF and that is when Bron comes back can he stay healthy through playoffs. IF both IFs happen titletown!
DLO needs a good tape job, lace up ankle braces and hightop shoes. Get out there and play!
TBJ is 13/23 from 3 in last 5 and his release is looking swift and consistent
Sean really have the guts to dickride Dillon Brooks. 🤡🤡
Blud didnt answer my question
AD keep balling DLow welcome back Malik Beasley get on the shooting gun and let’s make this run go lake show 💪🏾
When will lebron return?
Stop the AD Trade Talks. He is still one of the Best Bigs in the League even when injured. No one can replace AD in the League as it stands now
Sean u got a huge forehead Jesus
This is Lakers Main Issue. No Patience with Lack of Forsight of Present Rosters. They would Forever Regret Trading AD if ever happened. Imagine Trading off Kobe, or Having Jordan Before his Prime but Trading him off before he became the Face of the League. Preposterous!!!!!
When two people are talking about basketball but really have no skills and playing basketball or don't even know the terminology or don't even know what plays are being run or what's going on in the game they're just watching it with your eyes this is when you get to fake people talking about the Lakers please unsubscribe to this fake Laker Channel
Lol Trevor talking about breathing room. No one between the 6th seed and 13th seed has breathing room and that isn't changing for another 2 weeks.
Pre trade Lakers had some big wins and if you take away the bad start due to no chemistry and the three games that the refs screwed up. They played good enough to be better than their record.
hey ivan…lakers are 7-3 since getting rid of russ…clips are 2-5 since getting russ…hate to break it to you
Lmao does Sean make it his mission to disagree with every comment the fans make. I swear I can give atleast 5 takes he’s had this year where he’ll disagree like the fans have no clue then the next game he’ll be saying the same thing “the one thing that’s frustrating” is how he starts it off
We're really waiting for the Return of the King!
I would like to see Davis rest against the Rockets… we need him good rested and ready for the playoff push…
I said it 20 n 3 with 23 to go. We still have. We could go 14 and 2 for that 20 n 3… Love our team…Laker nation 4 life.
I'm going to make a bould perdition I think we get the 4th or 5th seed. I've been watching basketball for around 40 years…I really like how this team plays.
AD, Vanderbilt, Beasley,troy brown and dlo as starter .ar15 , Dennis Schroeder, Lonnie walker, Rui and Wenger gabriel second group as part of rotation roster
Who in the world would you trade A.D. for that hasn’t been injured?? What all star of his caliber? He’s a dominant two player. Yes he’s been injured but what super star player in the last three seasons hasn’t been injured???
Def think Max should be playing
Please If we have to choose one it has to be Troy, we had no wings for so long and finally we find one we are gonna let him go for another PG. Just Bring Wall for a veteran minimum and 10 to 15 minutes a night if necessary, because I want LBJ, Reaves and Russel to handle the ball.
If you trade A.D. Then the Lakers organization would be stupid. A.D. Is one of the top 3 best player in the NBA. When healthy. You keep this team together… If we have to lose someone it would be mo Bamba. Then maybe Walker has to go keep everyone else.
trade mo bamba & 2nd back to magic for bol bol
Not having Westbrick also helps!
Just keep winning.
It all comes down to the fact that Russ would have had the ball in his hand in the closing minutes and he's a poor shooter and decision maker
i would hope jennie pays the money to bring this roster back next summer
We ran a lot of 3 guard lineups which is what he meant imo by pre trade lakers.
Great segment Trevor 👏
Lakers trash af they missing playoffs again this season
