They were doing great post trade deadline after they traded Westbrook. Especially the duo of AD and Vando made the team a top 5 defense, even with AR and DLo on the court TOGETHER!
What I love about the Lakers is that, when they actually do play well, they have one of the most balanced styles out there: a good dose of driving, transition, posts and threes.
@@MbkBill Yea AD playing his best ball for the past couple of years, doesnt really make sense when u got 2 top ten players on a team but can only barely make the playoffs
Lebron chose Westbrook that’s what cost him years of his career .. Darvin Ham is an average to below average head coach but hard to fix what the Lakers made a mess . Reddick is however an elite coach and Knecht is an elite scorer , that’s the difference this year 🔥 🔥
Dk has opened the door for a lot of future 22 -24 yr old college draft picks. I guarantee you scouts are currently looking at players in that age range for next years draft
@@KentariusNot True teams would always go for the "Top Potential " picks starting young and molding them to there full potential might be. only in rare occasions where you have "Generational" players Wemby, Lebron etc.
When you have LBJ, AD, AR, and DK demanding attention plus all of the off ball movement essentially spacing the floor so much that there will ALWAYS be someone open is dangerous.
@DanielFruckinFlower And Rui too. With that said, any combination of two of them on the floor with Bron or DLo os not good for opposing teams. Then you add Max to the mix with increased defense and Cam..we just gotta stay healthy
The last 3 seasons the Lakers have started the season so poorly that they played catch-up all year! AD playing out of his mind and LeBron kicking father times ass is fun to watch, throw in DK an AR and DLo when he's hot and this could be the year LeBron gets his 5th!
Seems a little disengenuous to say no one other than the magic can match their consistency, when the cavs have lost 1 game all year. And it was by 3 points to the defending champs.
The only major difference is JJ Reddick, most of the players from last year are still there, Austin Reaves got better, but looks like JJ Reddick is the main difference.
He really reminds you of a Klay Thompson without the defense. 6ft7 has a high and quick release and the defensive closeout doesn't affect his ability to get his shot off
Well age alone. Some think Knecht might be peaking already being 23 and that 19yr old option at lottery pick also is more potential. So it’s almost a floor vs ceiling situation.
It’s amazing how over hyped people get over a little win streak, while during that streak not pointing out the obvious, they’ve played weak teams. They really need a center and a good backup point guard. Kessler, Schroder or Bruce Brown would be my targets, also if Ben Simmons comes available in the buy out I’d gamble on him. They need a healthy Vando.
The only thing the lakers need is a solid bench to where Bron & AD can rest and the team at least maintain the lead til the come back. Meaning if they get on the bench up 8 they should come back still up 8 or more! When that happens you have a championship team. Celtics, Warriors, Thunder, and Cavs have the benches you need to win in sure one of these 4 take the Ship.
The Lakers' problem with rebounding is part of the sacrifice they're making to focus on offense. JJ is gambling and playing a numbers game. He's looking at their offensive potential and letting those points cover for the loss in rebounds.
They would be 13-2 easily if they had got back on defense and box out for rebounds. That is scary to think. That is a 71 win pace. I can see this team winning 55 wins easily. How many games they might give away due to not having discipline will be up to them.
Just can't have any injuries to AD, LeBron, Dalton, and AR who are all essential for holding up this level of basketball. Just saw how much Denver dropped off without Jokic
Remember they doing this last year too under ham, all the way to IST Championship, the they regressed badly after that. Now, no ones blaming ham during that time too, since they winning, tho they are losing to top contenders , but i think the difference this time is JJ, theres a plan, unlike ham who rides his players then dump them once he cant figure something out. and Lakers are winning against great opponents this time, really hope they can continue this althroughout the season, man. not just a fluke.
When Lebron elbowed that guy in the face, I couldn't help but worry about Lebron's elbow. I hope Lebron's elbow is ok. I also hope seeing that guy's face assault Lebron's elbow didn't traumatize Bronny. Bronny the GOAT.
low TO rate on Knecht because he's a jump shooter... don't get it twisted, yes he's good but saying his low TO rate is because he's poise is somewhat misleading
They played the Suns Twice, Timberwolves, Memphis , The Kings twice, Cavs. What's soft about that schedule in the beginning of the season? Who TF is your team and who do they play?

Then you have DLo able to be the main ball handler and scorer off the bench. Something I think he needs, feeling like the star of a squad
@@myka4337 Yeah, Dlo handled Jazz's zone defense. Glad JJ has him playing defense again too.
RUI too!

1:18 the Cavs just went on a 15 game win streak btw

And the Lakers don't even have their full roster yet. Rui, Vando, Hayes, and Wood are still injured.
Lebron was eyeing Knecht since last year and the March madness . He was probably thinking that's a younger Korver .
And what I love about this is... other teams have to play him like he can go on a heater now. So much more space for AD, Bron and AR.
Call Quincy out of the g league and we can actually win this thing 😅

Knecht and attention to detail makes the Lakers a formidable opponent for any team in the NBA thanks to the coaching staff GO Lakers
The Cavs had the longest winning streak. The Lakers have shown a vast improvement from previous seasons.
Aye good break down 👍🏾 my new favorite channel if u keep this up
LET'GO LAKERS WIN 🏆 🙌 💪 ❤🎉😮😅
This kid is saving the Lakers.
Denver is gonna be a big game and may tell us about Lakers' real consistency.
Lakers should get a true center and they'll be golden
He really reminds you of a Klay Thompson without the defense. 6ft7 has a high and quick release and the defensive closeout doesn't affect his ability to get his shot off
Well age alone. Some think Knecht might be peaking already being 23 and that 19yr old option at lottery pick also is more potential. So it’s almost a floor vs ceiling situation.
Well the low free throw % tonight did end up hurting us in a close game😢
Seeing the Lakers now makes me hate Darvin more and more 😂😂😂
Coaching really matters

The Lakers' problem with rebounding is part of the sacrifice they're making to focus on offense. JJ is gambling and playing a numbers game. He's looking at their offensive potential and letting those points cover for the loss in rebounds.
They need to add some bench scoring, maybe 30 point between 2 players, and this would be a championship team.
They are currently missing Rui, Vanderbilt, Hayes, and Wood. That's their bench scoring.
13:59 My king LeCap Artist James 😂
As a Dallas fan I’m scared
They would be 13-2 easily if they had got back on defense and box out for rebounds. That is scary to think. That is a 71 win pace. I can see this team winning 55 wins easily. How many games they might give away due to not having discipline will be up to them.
While our defense is ass
Okay I’ll subscrive
Just can't have any injuries to AD, LeBron, Dalton, and AR who are all essential for holding up this level of basketball. Just saw how much Denver dropped off without Jokic
As excited as I am... it still worries me that this stretch against weak teams.
Cause we dont have vando/wood/rui/cam lakers deep enough to deal with 25 teams now let alone when they gain more chemistry with eachother and JJ.
Win the games you’re SUPPOSED to win. Nothing wrong with that. Now, If they lost any of these, THEN I’d be really worried.
Cavs 15 and 0 until the Celtics game loss. Is the longest streak.
In the lakers league .
We’re not talking about the whole NBA
He mentioned the magic on a win streak. I think he just omitted the fact they went on a 15 game win streak since it’s no longer active.
He said "longest right now." The video came out today so obviously, now that Cleveland lost, he is saying The Lakers have the longest current streak.
If you pay attention he says currently
Remember they doing this last year too under ham, all the way to IST Championship, the they regressed badly after that. Now, no ones blaming ham during that time too, since they winning, tho they are losing to top contenders , but i think the difference this time is JJ, theres a plan, unlike ham who rides his players then dump them once he cant figure something out. and Lakers are winning against great opponents this time, really hope they can continue this althroughout the season, man. not just a fluke.
He nice and gets easier shots playing with bron and ad
DK reminds me of Dan Majerle
Bronny really left college to be playing in the g league
I guess you forgot Cleveland was in the league.
If JJ Redrick doesn’t win coach of the year when it’s all said is done will be shocking PSA He will win 4:34
im a life long lakers fan, but this glazing is nuts

Dalton is balling all the way outside his mind. They should have never gave him technology.
6 game win streak longest in the league right now? Did the Cavs 15 game win streak just not exist to you 💀💀😭😭
Don't Cleveland got like 16 in a row wins?
