3:14 AD defensive player of year💪🏾
Josh giddey still not critiqued
Why when the Lakers loose it's the Role players & AD fault…but when they Win it's the greatest of LeBron?????…..I'm waiting😎😎😎😎🏀🏀🏀💯
AD is not and never will be a monster, he doesn’t have the heart or testicular fortitude to be one!
The LA fakers won’t win another nba title with the queen and street clothes as their best players
They're just not that good period
Oh goodness just stop it molly
SAS "Nobody here is rooting for him" 😂😂
Championship hangover 😅
Same BS as always to control the narrative in favor of Lebron. If they would've won, breaking news oldest player to do a triple double to the Knicks. Since they loss less mention the triple double but blame the role players. It's pathetic and nauseous at this point. NBA tries to force feed Lebron as the greatest.
Check the coach.
Watch the 😂 next game those will get stomped.
Shannon's lakers? He's not a laker he's a bronsexual
I''m absolutely baffled how these brothers never once question Darvin Ham's coaching ability.
Why does it sound like SAS feels like he has to sound more blacker when Shay is on the show
The Clippers are becoming the modern day Spurs. Not in their style of play, but the fact they’re winning games with star players but no one seems to care. And I think Ty Lue prefers it that way.
The Lakers and the Pacers are a flash in the pan. That tournament is now more of a joke because both of those teams dropped immediately after the final game.
Yall know the Knicks were in this game too, right?
#BlameRuss🤣🤣🤣
This lakers team, without AD and Lebron, might beat the best basketball team in china😂😂
Better pray AD and lebron have good health🙏
Sleepin on the Clippers ……
Bro didn't let unc talk about ja 🙄
id watch a whole show monday to friday with these two.
the tournament was fixed and they had help from the refs
Funny how no one is blaming IST. The Lakers and Pacers are on losing streaks right now. They will turn this around no worries still very early in the season. Everyone need to relax take a chill pill.
