6:47 lol he roasted mad dog
Yeah lakers taking a step back. AD not going to be better then last year. LeBron year older. They don’t have any body else that can lead 20 to 30 games. Kyrie might have been the best move to win. Looking back the AD trade sending Ingram was terrible 😞. Lakers not winning another ring unless they can get late playoff high performance from the bench players or LeBron reclaim his youth for the entire season and post season.
Oh boy. Here we go again talking about the Fakers
I would not bring back AD. Trade AD so you can become competitive and get some ballers.
Mad Dog always hatn.’ He’s wrong constantly. Lakers will make moves, too. They have one ol’ player. ONE!
It’s funny when Dominique, a nfl player thinks he knows nba when obviously he doesn’t know anything but he thinks he’s right. Mad dog is right and knows more plus dude has a annoying voice. He makes me turn it down everytime he talks. You can tell he’s a rude, just douche bag is so full of himself like humble people every time he’s on I’m not watching it.
You gotta get that guy off the show. He was funny for a week but not more than that.
Please explain why Mad Dog is still on this show. His points are always off. The only player that's old is LeBron. The next is AD. I wonder if Mad Dog really thinks before he talks. Get this clown off the show. Smh
Windy just knows his Stuff
old team? how
BLAH BLAH BLAH 😂 THEY DONT EVEN HAVE NEW ROSTER
lebron will never be healthy in the playoffs again
James doesn’t deserve max pay wymbi is overrated lakers are done
AUSTIN MUTHAFUCKIN REAVES 😤
Dog is dumb
Madd Dogg is a Hater !!!!
When everyone was saying the grizzly’s were gonna take us out now we were supposed to beat them 🤡🤣
With everyone healthy on Lakers and Denver WCF gonna be the same results only in 5 games at best
Personally I would try to trade Anthony Davis to the Chicago Bulls and see what kind of good pieces I could get from that trade with Chicago, just saying 🤗
Is it football season yet ?
Mad dog is an idiot, yes the lakers are old yes they lost to the Nuggets. Swept matter a fact. But the Nuggets are no joke that’s why they won the chip obviously 😂😂
Windy is good at this tbh.
THESE CLOWNS ARE HILARIOUS 😂
Mad dog!!
Nobody had the Lakers making the wcf or finals but why would they take a step back? Who in the west is just as big, athletic, versatile, and deep in depth as the Lakers with play makers on offense and defense BESIDES the Nuggets?
Reaves was “good” because he had no expectations. Lakers might miss the playoffs tbh lebron was drafted 2 DECADES AGO
Tobias was the 15th highest paid player last year but he wasn't a top 15 player in the league. Maybe it's not his fault but his father needs more clients cause he's a great agent.
Madd Dawg, "number one they signed the wrong player".😂
Windy provides the best insight
Why they keep calling lakers old ?
Lol the revisionist history is funny bc Mad Dog saying the Lakers were lucky to get past GSW and Memphis yet the Lakers weren't expected to make it past the 1st. Everyone at ESPN had them losing to every team
Lakers have 1 old guy & that’s the lebron & he needed surgery idk why nobody talking bout that 😂😂
Mad dogg is infuriating. This dude is worse than your grandpas grandpa.
If the Lakers trade LeBron they would move forward. He holds them back, throws everyone else under the bus and just statpads while faking injuries. Ideally they pick up a guy who can actually shoot and hit FTs and has a clutch mentality to put around their actual best players in AD, Reaves, Rui, D-Lo (when fans aren’t trashing him and he can relax to drop 30).
Its hard to listen anymore when u said zero but its not.
Foxworth always has horrible takes
