Man how many vacations a year does Broussard get??! 😂. His shows are not the same when he’s gone.
Year 20 narrative to lower the goal post is old weak take.
to be fair to LeGM he is still a reasonably inexperienced coach and hes having to juggle player-coaching and Westbrick airballs this season
So tired of all the excuses, never heard so many excuses for a superstar. Hold yourself accountable for your part in creating this situation. Just like he tries to dominate the ball in the game sometimes m, he tries to dominate the franchise and it backfired This time.. You’re not entitled to win. You have to earn that.
Nick…. How the Lakers gonna fix the team when they traded away all their assets for LeBron??? Y'all don't wanna talk about that huh. It's always everyone else's fault but LeBron smh.
Rudy might go down as one the worst trades ever…
Kobe > lebron
Lakers had an all star talented young core with BI, Kuzma, Zubacs, Ball, Wagner…and traded that all away for "can't shoot" Russ and fragile old AD. They made their bed and now LeBron needs to own up to his failures.
Maybe if Lebron just focused on playing instead of always trying to GM they could’ve built a better team around him.
Did Greg Jennings actually say that LeBron has self awareness? Lmao
LeBron is the least self aware and most delusional athlete you will ever see.
Lebron fans will STAT you to death until it comes to the actual stat that counts wins an losses
T hat was one of the ugliest shirts I have ever seen.
As for longevity, hgh is an amazing drug…. report out if miami had him identified as a user, he leaves Miami thins down, isn't the same player. Bulks back up grows the beard to hide the acne and he keeps performing.
As for his frustration, he chose that team….
No man has self awareness and wears that shirt.
Because he's older now. In his hey day. This same team he'll take to The Finals.
Jeanine Buss need to let Lebron go elsewhere to win chips.
Rudy had 4 blocks that night
Can't wait for Broussard to return
Honestly LeBron doesn't make his teammate any better
I hope they keep Greg Jennings when the football season is over
Rob Pelinka is a worthless POS GM. You can blame Rob-Baby for the Lakers' troubles.
AD being hurt doesn't help; but it's worth noting, that when AD was healthy and playing, the Lakers had a winning record, whereas when Lebron also played, they had a losing record. That tells me that Lebron is not impacting winning. Also, last year, 91% of Lebron's points were scored when the Lakers were 15+ points behind, which would demonstrate his scoring as non-impactful, and imply he was stat padding. Simply put: Lebron, regardless of his stats, is no longer capable of carrying a team to a 'chip.
STOP TALKING ABOUT THE LAKERS! Noone cares about this busta team. Barkley was right about the media/NBA and the Lakers.
its time for leFlop to retire.
The Pelicans aren’t Frisky the magic are
Never seen in NBA history a player play gm for his own team then receive 0 blame for when they don’t succeed. Lebron has had teams with less raw talent and took them further. At some point some of this falls on LeGM
Nick is a master of selectively choosing stats and numbers. We're just going to pretend like they didn't start winning when LeBron went out for injury? Or the fact that he caps off certain numbers to make LeBron feel more Elite like Kevin Durant should be averaging six or seven assists a night while not being the primary ball handler like lebron. And just think we have another 20 years of this with him riding Luca
Basically, Bron is not a bus driver, but a passenger. Maybe front row, but still a passenger.
He needs someone else to carry the team so he can provide background support.
Being the #1 option but losing games means the team doesn’t really respect his leadership.
He choosed it… He could play in Denver or in Memphis and he would play for 20 minutes and he would win 1 more chip… Instead he choosed to think his business… Sorry but this is the truth and that's why he stayed in LA. So stay in 4 rings and shut up.
Lebron James offense is still good but he is a shell of himself defensively. He started playing for Lakers and forgot how to play defense.
Labron can still dunk so that’s gotta be cool to see. Everything else, not so much
Nick's fanboying over Lebron is pretty funny. Lebron has been excellent offensively this year. But 38 isn't what 38 used to be anymore in today's sports for the true greats with the advances and Science, medicine and technology. Look at what Brady has been able to do, Ovechkin, Aaron Rodgers. I think there will be alot of players moving forward excelling in their late 30s and into their 40s
yet jordan averaged more at the same age. stop says year 20 an say what age
Love the 3 seconds of Pascal Siakam love
Stop with what labron doing in year 20 anybody can score in the nba today time so stop it….
He aint the king. Todays soft NBA hes the king but thats it. Doesnt matter how you stretch the facts.
Refs are doing Lebron a favor. He sucks at the line
kyle lowry is older than steph hed be the next oldest that has similar minutes
got Reddit? Love the NBA join r/EverythingNBA today!
Wow a lebron built team can’t consistently win games. Shocker
Bron should get the scoring leader award before play ins begin as they won't make it to the play ins.
Where's Chris? 🥲
Pascal a nice player?? Give the guy some respect…he more than a nice player
