When ESPN realized that people would rather watch the debate-based format of First Take rather than the mellowed out original Cold Pizza, that's when they started promoting gossip, drama, and on-air altercations. Now it's all about disseminating falsehoods and starting arguments for no apparent reason.
What would you like them to report on? Genuine question. Because I feel like you people just like to complain. They are reporting on one of the biggest organizations getting a new coach… how is that not a real story?
@@josereyes5229 Kids movie from the 90's called the Little Giants. They had a secret play they ran to beat Coach O'Shea's Cowboys called the Annexation of Puerto Rico.
6/10 of his coaches have made conference finals. 5/10 NBA finals. Spo, Blatt, Lue, Vogel, Ham & Brown all peaked with LeBron. LeBron’s guys usually succeed with him.
@@BaithNaHe had a reason to lose faith in them. Only good coach he’s ever had is Spo in Miami. Everything else has been him leading his team in spite of having bad or decent coaches. People act like he’s had a coach like Pop or Phil. He hasn’t.
Of course, he has. He is the second greatest basketball player of all time. He will pull strings with Buss to acquire talent and show out on the court and make sure everyone buys in.
Lebron is 39, and he will probably retire next year. What will reddick have after that? An injury prone Anthony Davis, no depth, and no draft capital to make the roster better. There's a reason why many turned down this head coaching position. Nothing to build on and if the team falters, you'll get the blame.
Brad Stevens built a good team for the Celtics around the Jays while the Lakers are busy finding a coach (in the form of JJ) and building around a 39 year old. Nice
In order to win a championship, LeBron needs a roster that includes Jokic, Luka, Giannis, Embiid, and Anthony Edwards, and he'll have any one traded who tries to overtake him as the #1 option.
I told yall, Bron running the show. He's the coach, GM and player. Bad move for Lakers. They have given up so much for Lebron, future draft picks, players, coaches its crazy. They should let Bron go. He has destroyed this franchise.
LeBron is the coach. LeBron draws the plays. JJ gives input. LeBron needs input. The only input coaches he’s ever had was David Blatt, Jason Kidd, Spolestra. Won a chip all the years he had input coaches.
These guys get paid to speak and spread misinformation ! Firstly AD best season with the lakers was year 1 , when he was still himself, face up big man , put on the floor go , mix bigs up , operated from all 3 levels , played above the rim … this was AD before he got ruined and adapted to the Lebron system , became a pick and roll big majority of the time, little to no action ran for him but right block post up isolations !! Secondly AD didn’t ask for a trade from Monty Williams , Monty was fired 3 years before AD left smh, Alvin Gentry was pels coach smh
Windy's stat about the Lakers being in the top 6 only once in the last 12 years lacks the context of Kobe Bryant tearing his Achilles and the team actively tanking to keep all the picks that they had traded to the Suns and 76ers. Then of course the run to the Western conference finals with the Lakers being a play in team because they know if LeBron is on the team they don't really care about the regular season standing as much.
Lebron lets everyone else fail, so what would be different here = LBJ's older, slower, gets injured more often + quits on his team a lot more now = JJ's screwed, but he knows this = JJ DOES NOT expect to be a "good" coach, at all because that would be impossible, since he has "0" experience doing this job, so he can't have any high-expectations, in any way, shape or form
JJ will do an excellent job and he will make the team much better and of course he will win a championship for the los angeles Lakers !!!! Yes sir!!!!!!
This Lakers adventure is DOOMED to FAIL. They won't contend in the West and LeBron isn't going to change that by being buddies with his new coach. A success here is LeGM actually getting his TEAM all on board with coach + 'Bron and locked in playing good basketball BOTH ends of the floor. Unless somebody GIFTS them a roster upgrade its Play-In time again 2025
How is it a "best decision for the Lakers", JJ wouldn't have gotten this job if it wasn't for LBJ ... so there's no merit in this hire. The man is NO track-record, coaching the biggest team in the world. ---> Right now as it stands, the probability of catastrophic failure is sky high.
LeBron’s attempt to annoy more people by selecting somebody who shytted on MJ’s era and didn’t have a good relationship with Kobe. The list of stuff that will come out after LeBron retires will be long and hurtful. 🍆
Lmao!!! Lebaby will blame him the minute things don’t go how he wants it too! I’m going to start watching again just to see this absolutely hilarious debacle of a team.
Finally a reasonable take. If Bron has your back ie Ty Lue he can be held accountable as Ty Lue has admitted to on podcasts. It’s clear from game one in the season Ham was out “ You do realize I can play point guard right?”.
I hope Reddick succeeds so that online trolls and haters are put in their place, why do people want to live toxic lives instead of just being happy for other people?
Whatever Lebron needs to keep motivating himself. If his drive is to help JJ we may see yet another elite season from the Goat James. Let’s just see what Pelinka surrounds AD and Lebron with this season.
What kind of a stats Genius do you need in this run and gun league?? What they are coaching? Run, pass, layup, don't worry about defense just get back on offense and keep cranking it up!! Its definitely an athletic track race that takes skill but still it's wack to watch!!!
Lebron would be 40 yrs in what way Lebron won’t let JJR fail, so he is not only play but also carry the weight of the coaching task to also succeed, these guys on ESPN have lost their minds how could they have clueless individuals speaking on this. There gonna be such pressure on this team to win now and the west has even got tougher, I don’t think JJR knows what he’s gotten himself into especially when start having a losing streak.
Any suggestion that Lebron can mentally will something to happen at this point is insane. "keep that same energy" "playoff mode activated" he aint that dude mentally.
NBA Analyst: Are the stories about you true? Are you going to coach the Lakers. They say you can't bring a title to LA. JJ Reddick: I wouldn't be bothering with hiring a staff and preparing for the season, would I? NBA Analyst: The Western Conference you're playing-- I would rather take the Detroit or Cavaliers job. I wouldn't want to play out west. JJ Reddick: That's why no one will remember your name.
Does it matter who the lakers hire as the “coach” when we all know who the actual real coach is anyway? It’s been like this for years. Nothing new. Yet the msm media especially ESPN can never shut up about the lakers.
Are you seriously suggesting the previous coaching failures occurred as Lebron had no interest in their success? You guys are lucky most of us grew up with you as our favourite channel making it difficult to cut you off. It’s sad how pathetic ESPN has become
Isn't this Steve Nash redux?! And that did not go well. Would have been better if JJ get started as an Assistant somewhere then step into the lead role. JJ & LeBron Podcast was his his first part of the interview process 😁 The over/ under for JJ 1.75 years. Ohh, can I also say I really like UH as a panelist. Really like his tone, insight and humor (please lose the shouter guy Stephen A. permanently!!!).
Why do they keep saying Anthony Davis is the future of the Lakers after Bron retires? He’s 31 and an injury proned big who’s been playing since he was 19. He has max 3 more prime years.
I haven't seen ESPN report a real story in 17 years

A “real story” like what
Americans like all their entertainment and lives to be like the Jerry Springer show so we get what we asked for based on ratings...

“Annexation of Puerto Rico,” classic UD!
What that means
@@josereyes5229it’s a Little Giants reference 🤣.
@@josereyes5229 Kids movie from the 90's called the Little Giants. They had a secret play they ran to beat Coach O'Shea's Cowboys called the Annexation of Puerto Rico.
Classic camp movie
That was corny tbh
So Lebron can make a coach fail or not... LeBron allowed all the other Laker coaches to fail according to this guy 😂
rite, all this about unity and LeBron lets a black coach take the fall for the teams mediocre playing and LeBrons mediocre defense
Apparently, right? That comment suggests that all the other coaches failed because LeBron made them fail
That’s your low iq interpretation. He’s referring to their friendship.
6/10 of his coaches have made conference finals. 5/10 NBA finals. Spo, Blatt, Lue, Vogel, Ham & Brown all peaked with LeBron. LeBron’s guys usually succeed with him.
@@jjballers81thank you ‼️‼️
So does that mean LeBron let the last couple of coaches fail?
Yes, they were literally fired because Lebron lost faith in them as a coach. That's what they mean when they say the coach "lost the locker room"
@@BaithNayou have to have a locker room to lose
@@BaithNaHe had a reason to lose faith in them. Only good coach he’s ever had is Spo in Miami. Everything else has been him leading his team in spite of having bad or decent coaches. People act like he’s had a coach like Pop or Phil. He hasn’t.
Please stop. Lebron does not have the ability to make him succeed or fail
Of course, he has. He is the second greatest basketball player of all time. He will pull strings with Buss to acquire talent and show out on the court and make sure everyone buys in.
How so? Lebron had a huge part in getting JJ hired, didn’t he?
Isn't that what they have been trying to do in the last few years and they have failed miserably 😅@bankofwerner4206
@@bankofwerner4206 he might be top 8 at best
Bron has let lots of coaches fail 😂
Who?
KD has let 6 coaches fail in the last 6 seasons
😂😂😂😂
No the organization
He's also won the first title for every head coach he won with
cause those failed the team. LBJ won a ring for each org he went to and for those coaches that won with him.
Stop being a sore loser.
Lebron is 39, and he will probably retire next year. What will reddick have after that? An injury prone Anthony Davis, no depth, and no draft capital to make the roster better.

@@Gurenn83 sad, but so true.
Idiot retards La does have draft capital when he leaves 🤣🤣
SMH soon as the Lakers get bounced out the playoffs they gone start blaming JJ REDDICK.
JJ + Lebron + Bronny = Circus
Sweep
Bingo !!
I can't wait to see it.
LeFirstRoundExit will be added to his accolades
Lakers will be a title contender watch
UD is really good at this
Very. Hope they keep him
Lebron is really the coach
He's a cry baby
Owner
@carter7944 stfu not a owner 😒 don't have enough money to own the Lakers. Stop riding that man that hard it make know sense
Im now convinced the Lakers dont care about winning and instead care about generating sports media coverage and being entertaining.
Lebron in year 21 lets the owner hire a coach with no experience to close out his career lol. Truly embarrasing. I doubt JJ makes it 3 years
2 years max before lakers are looking for a new head coach
Lebron has let LA Lakers fail.
How if he got them a ring
Done better than how Kobe left it.
In order to win a championship, LeBron needs a roster that includes Jokic, Luka, Giannis, Embiid, and Anthony Edwards, and he'll have any one traded who tries to overtake him as the #1 option.
Ye he's the problem.....👀 idiot
One title and a WCF appearance in the last 4 years
Lakers are still the Clippers DADDY when it comes to end results
So you’re saying he could have saved all of those other coaches from failing? 😂
JJ is gonna be an amazing coach. Watch
I told yall, Bron running the show. He's the coach, GM and player. Bad move for Lakers. They have given up so much for Lebron, future draft picks, players, coaches its crazy. They should let Bron go. He has destroyed this franchise.
I know Jeff Saturday is like..... YESSSS! 😁

I give Budenhozer 1 year MAX!
KD has had 6 cosches in 6 years
Coaches cant last longer than ONE season with KD anymore
@@Nostalgia9478LeFirstRoundExit coming 😆
If that’s the case why let the other coaches fail? If it’s because he’s tight with JJ it just calls into LJ professionalism, or possibly a lack of.
Bruh it’s football time now why are we on basketball
It's either LeBron/Lakers or Can Dak win a SuperBowl and/or sign a new deal. Those are your ESPN choices.
@@Shagrath71 LALSPN likes to talk about losers.

LeBron is the coach. LeBron draws the plays. JJ gives input. LeBron needs input. The only input coaches he’s ever had was David Blatt, Jason Kidd, Spolestra.
Won a chip all the years he had input coaches.
I'm just leaving this comment here so that I can laugh in May next year😂
Big fan of JJ, Monte would have been a better choice, at least experienced.
UD is good has an analyst. He probably can coach eventually has well.
4 years is the longest amount of time he spent with a head coach
I Hope JJ Redick Will Succeed As A New Head Coach For The Lakers 💜💛

It’s not the coach it’s the players that wins a basketball game.

Talk about branding a podcast
The Lakers need to use the triangle system and they will be most successful
Only ones keeping it real
LIKE ALL ALL THE OTHER COACHES OF THE PAST 😂😂😂
Anyone not named Darvin Ham will be an improvement.
This will age like fine wineeeeee
I think JJ will be really good at this, but his roster right now is pretty rough. I think he'll build a really good team once Lebron retires.
Go JJ!!!

I cant believe that 1 player can hold a team hostage what a circus! They are not winning anything🤣
Could Monty Williams being Assistant Head Coach?
Let’s just look at after the season. No way of knowing what’s going to happen but I don’t know what JJ is going to do with that lackluster roster.
They should have kept ham. u got to grow with a team
I suppose they felt he wasn't cutting it for some reason
Dopey Darvin was BY FAR the WORST Nba head coach of all time
He will NEVER get anothrr Nba head coaching job
Book it
@Nostalgia9478 how can u coach a team, and u ain't got nobody
The Lebron thing to do this offseason is get his friend JJ a job, get the Lakers to draft his son and then leave the Lakers in free agency…
LeBron’s attempt to annoy more people by selecting somebody who shytted on MJ’s era and didn’t have a good relationship with Kobe.
The list of stuff that will come out after LeBron retires will be long and hurtful. 🍆
Mark Jackson kould have got a job
I’m confident in JJ
The interaction with the audience feels so personal.
So if the Lakers don’t have a championship roster then why did Darvin Ham get fired???🤔
What about Mark Jackson.. Monty Williams
Lmao!!! Lebaby will blame him the minute things don’t go how he wants it too! I’m going to start watching again just to see this absolutely hilarious debacle of a team.

None of these ppl see it? It’s clear as day, uncle jj is hired by Lebron to give bronny playing time
Why is Lebron still in the team
Lebron is the assistant coach
JJ is the assistant coach
After this fails, you have to fire rob pelinka. Could drafted Tatum and brown and should've had 2 championships by now.
I hope Reddick succeeds so that online trolls and haters are put in their place, why do people want to live toxic lives instead of just being happy for other people?
Lebron went let JK fail? So are you saying he let all those other coaches fail, therefore let his teammates fail? What are you saying?
He hasn’t even been introduced to the media as HD and he’s already on the hot seat!
Whatever Lebron needs to keep motivating himself. If his drive is to help JJ we may see yet another elite season from the Goat James.
