Is this the BEST lineup for the Lakers? 🤔 Mike gets HYPED for his team 😤 | Numbers on the Board



Is this the BEST lineup for the Lakers? 🤔 Mike gets HYPED for his team 😤 | Numbers on the Board

Next team LA Lakers boom what you learn Mike what I learned from them Darvin ham did his thing when he put that star in lineup of DLo aler re LeBron James toan Prince SL Ry and you giving him credit for playing his five best players gam

Gam is not show me much as a coach when he stopped touching cuz that was line the first game we went to that was the lineup then he he kept feeling like he need to te or something every he kept trying to touch

It I was to say cam went I think that started like messing up the lineup trying to find just for him to get back to the opening night nugget lineup we saw and like oh my God this lineup is good yes it’s good they theug that game remember that anthy Davis said zero

Points in the second half that was our best game last game was our best start I feel like our best first qut in a long time you know what I learned what that the Lakers ain’t and LeBron might leave I wouldn’t say all that I learned also a perfect anthy David season still

I thought I thought that was going to move you more I wouldn’t say all that I wouldn’t say all of that what’ you say a perfect ad season still gives y’all a play in season that is kind of crazy this is the most healthy Anthony Davis season one of

His best offensively and defensively the numbers don’t say it though like the iest does the numbers say that they’re better without him on the court which it just don’t make it don’t make sense to my brain that’s why you don’t remember we had we played we played a game

Without Anthony Davis we got our ass bust right that’s what I’m saying like obviously something’s not there but also when it’s him Austin Reeves and and D’Angelo Russell on the court together y’all be getting your ass spank you know these calculators be list us I don’t know CU it’s not like their record

Is very good you know what I’m saying it’s not like they’re the two SE we would much rather have him for sure the option is him or Jackson Hayes you know what you do but it’s just again it’s just it’s just something y’all remember Jackson Hayes mom was like an incredible

Athlete remember we was going to interview him and you wasn’t there yeah I remember that but they gave us those facts like his mom was like a state champion D1 basketball we about to interview him Charlotte we had remember we had the Adidas show no that would be

Vegas I I remember that though I remember that though we had a bunch of athletes in his family I was in Charlotte you said I wasn’t there I was you that wasn’t Charlotte that is Vegas that’s Vegas that’s Vegas that’s Vegas Vegas y but I don’t I don’t remember

That the punch bow y you’re right you’re right my hey raise your voice to me again on March 5th when I was born in 1995 no good though hey B like Kobe like man I know D pissing you off say he doing it with his left shaking your hand

With his left I’m like yeah man B like Kobe said next time you do that he got something for you tell him I’m ready I ain’t I ain’t ducking no smoke I can’t believe you came on this podcast to say darham get credit for playing a real lineup he’s an NBA coach

Right and that was last wins y’all had LeBron really got in his b you got to put into perspective darham has not really done much as a coach so when he does the right thing you got to applaud it that game was against the Clippers LeBron was crazy yes he was that was

Ridiculous like that one of the most fun LeBron games in recent history he literally just took the game over bro you know that was the first time his team has ever come back down 20 points in the 21 years of means his teams has never been down that

Means sit his ass down it’s no reason for you to be out there what a bad loss for the Clippers um

On Numbers on the Board, Mike, Pierre and Darrick join Kenny Beecham to discuss if the current lineup for the Los Angeles Lakers can be the push to get them to the NBA Playoffs.

  1. They haven’t done a thing. Stop this. The only good team they beat in this run was okc.. they can’t shoot and they can’t defend the three ball. 10th seed incoming

  2. I like how Skip Bayless claims the Lakers are looking like the best team in NBA after losing to Denver for the 8th straight time. OKC are the biggest PRETENDERS in that top 4. I give them zero chance making the Finals unless every team they face are injured. Add the fact they were playing on a B2B like my Clippers did in Milwaukee.

    I don’t care if Lakers play the Nuggets close. They still LOST. They still got SWEPT last year. When LeBron beat my Clippers, it was as FLUKEY as they come. That happens like once every 100 games. Clips don’t lose that with Paul George and Ivica Zubac. I don’t rely on flukes in a playoff series.

    So after the Lakers lose to the likely 2024 NBA champions, they look bad. After they beat a pretender like OKC, they’re now the best team in basketball. Give me a break, Skip. Just like your ratings, Lakers are a sunken ship since their flukey bubble title run.

    It’s not like the Lakers can’t close games. They’ve had comebacks. It’s because Denver closes better than them especially with Jokic and Murray looking like Shaq and Kobe. Add the fact LeBron and AD will gag free throws late. Jokic is better than AD or any big on the Lakers. Murray shoots better than LeBron and Reaves.

    DLo disappears in the playoffs and almost becomes unplayable. Jokic is extremely difficult to beat. You double him, he’ll make a perfect pass to a wide open teammate. If you play him single coverage, he destroys barbecue chicken like AD. You’re too weak, ADisney. No Dwight Howard to save you now.

    1. Denver Nuggets
    2. Boston Celtics
    3. Miami Heat
    4. Minnesota Timberwolves

    Yet, I hear LeJuice is posting he’s the best player to ever touch a basketball. In his mind and only with his young and dumb fanbase do they believe he is.

    Steam Deck is the greatest gaming device I’ve ever owned. I never been into PC gaming before. And I really haven’t been much of a console gamer since Gen 6 with Dreamcast, PS2, Xbox, and GameCube. Ever since I got a Sony Ericsson T616 in January 2004, I was more fascinated by phones by then. Then when iPhone came out in 2007 and I tried Android by Oct 2011, I got more fascinated by smartphones in general.

    Steam Deck brought me back into gaming. I did own a PS4 and Vita by 2017 after my hiatus with console gaming from 2008-2016. I did start running emulation on my Z Flip3 in 2021 and got my first Switch Lite in Oct 2022. But it’s the Steam Deck that really brought me back into gaming. I use it every day and I’d play a game for hours now. No more 15 minutes spurts. I really enjoy playing a game for a while on it in my car or on a couch.

    With phones now swapping places with gaming handhelds as being the far less interesting industry to follow, I’ve returned back to gaming because of it. Steam Deck really is a GAME-CHANGER. It’s the iPhone of PC handhelds with an affordable price like many Android alternatives and can be customizable like Android. ROG Ally Z1 Extreme and Legion Go would not be $700 and be double that price if Steam Deck never existed. We need to thank Valve for changing the PC handheld gaming industry forever.

    Steam Deck is a f—king great device! Loving my new black Tomtoc case for it. My brand new Switch Lite which is my fourth one I bought and I got only two weeks before the Steam Deck is currently not being used much because I want to play my Steam games far more. Why play a weak system like the Switch by this point? And Nintendo isn’t doing people any favors as of late with Yuzu and Citra coming to an end.

    I’m better off never having Nintendo getting my money ever again. Nintendo is perhaps the greatest game developer but Valve is a far better company to support. F Nintendo.
