The nerve of you media members... who on earth are these people... why can't he say they need a center... you concentrate on your job, become a better analyst.
The rant about AD wanting a center is very hilarious because Lakers DO NEED a center. AD is working hard day in and out to anchor that center but he plays best when he's at 4. Why do people always have to discredit what a player wants, anyway? Jfc.
He’s not better at the 4, he’s better when he doesn’t have to be the bruising center every single minute he plays. He needs to be able to play at the 4 for maybe 10-15 mins per game. He’s too slow now to play the 4 full time.
I don’t get how the Lakers need help. Yall got the goat. And a beast of a “big man” literally can score or defend and at elite level and then u have yt boy reaves who plays his role to a tea. Yall got true 4s in Vando and Rui. How yall need help. Anyone who knows basketball should know they should carry this team to a ship. Or maybe these 2 players just aren’t good as people say. 6th seed talking bout yall need help. Tf yall got blown out by Jokic tf whose fault was that. Y’all don’t need a center one if you bozos need to be in a mvp race fr
If AD had a center it would unlock AD's defense even more. If Vando can stay healthy (big if) and they get any center that is better than Hayes lol, they can win a chip. I love how these media people are mad at AD for requesting another piece. But if KD or Steph are asking for help then no one has a problem with it. These people are shameless. 😂
AD plays well when he’s the biggest guy on the court but against bigger centers, he struggles. If Lakers think they’ll get through Denver with just Hayes as a backup think again. They need another center.
2:50 "AD stop telling me how we need a center... and go out dominate against Giannis and Jokic" The reason why he's saying that is because he can't dominate them. What kind of stupid takes is that?
We need another center jokic stopper i think kessler or brook lopez big need im happy with vanderbilt is back and dfs vincent insane defensvie km sure hachimura will be gone soon
Steph doesn't need to do more. Nobody expected much from him when he was drafted 4 chips all sorts of records he has no motivation his legacy is secure
Anthony Davis had 36 points, but they highlight Lebron's stats during the highlights. I am hoping the lakers are still riding a win streak by the time they play the Knicks and Clippers.
Anthony Davis plays well alongside a stretch big like Marc Gasol. Brook Lopez comes with a high salary to match. Nicola Vucevic is a similar case and will cost them picks. They could try getting Maxi Kleber but he has lost confidence in his shot.
and people wanna say the lakers are bad.. yea we arent dominating but we still just steamed rolled boston and dominated the warriors and are on a hot streak and 5th in the west... we can easily finish top 3 and we had a "terrible" season apprently, and the lakers are washed.. we dont even have all our players healthy and we dont even have a big.. just wait till we get going and make some trades. we can easily make a championship run, and im taking my odds against boston in a final any day...
What's your point? The Lakers got steamrolled by the Nuggets and Cleveland and lost to the Mavericks with no Luka or Kyrie.......Also they barely beat some of the worst teams in the league
And then you guys get to the post season and get sent home in the first round. You seriously think LA can take Boston in a best of 7 when they can't even get past the Nuggets? 🤣
@ yea these nuggets are way diferent from last year, and we can match up well against celtics. people are just mad the lakers are having a bad season and are still in 5th seed.
@ No one's mad, we just live in reality where the Lakers aren't that good. Remember getting all that rest because of the fires, then coming back and getting blown out by the Spurs? We do. They aren't making it to the WCF much less the finals, where either Boston or the Cavs await them, and they would get destroyed.
Don’t listen to anyone saying lakers DONT need trades it means they aren’t watching .. Anthony Davis faced a warriors team without draymond green 😂 they need another BIG
The rockets are ballin rn!!!! And they’re doing it under the radar and are going to be a problem if they he’ll growing together!!! I thought they was too young and immature but they could become as good as the Thunder if they keep dating right and developing the soon to be stars in that team!!! Salute to them fr
Lakers still need a center! AD is playing great but he is no match with jokic he is in another level even the wolves need two bigs to defeat them in the playoffs
The Warriors had no centers for this game, easy money for AD👌👍😎! But to compete with teams with strong bigs ( Jokic/ Embiid/Adams/Jonas/ Giannis) which he cant handle defensively LA truly needs a Center!
At the end of the day, dubs need to decide who they want to fit around, Draymond or JK, they are a horrendous fit and quite literally plays right into Steph’s weakness and stripping him of spacing, teams are sending two to three players at home and the dubs can’t make teams play because buddy is truly the only other reliable shooter in that lineup. JK and draymond are space suckers, they need to trade one of them, JK definitely has a lot more value.
How they gonna tell ad what he needs on his team that he is supposed to be the number 1 option.Whatever he says he needs they better try to get because if your number 1 option is happy they play better just ask Miami
The Lakers always trying to get somebody else to make them better instead of just being a better team and playing better basketball themselves. Sometimes all you have to depend on, is you and the people you already with. You continue to grind, and put in the work until you become successful. Every team LeBron play on always needs somebody or something else. This serves the Lakers right for dedicating these past years to building around lebron. They should have been trying to make different moves and add different pieces. If they would have got rid of LeBron a long time ago they would have what they need to succeed. Now they're trying to bust moves because they know that LeBron is getting ready to be done
If they would have got rid of Lebron, they would get rid of ANY playoff chances too. Might as well had start a rebuild if thats the case. And that takes at least a good 5-7 years.
Lakers always need help. Its always the same narrative surrounding any lebron team. You dont hear this kind of sentiment from any other superstars around the league. Lakers just not good enough bron is a cone on defense
I remember last year lakers getting roasted being like 10th haven’t heard a thing for curry tho😂😂😂I forgot lebrons STILL the head of the nba. Crazy man I thought curry would take it this year but nopppe too much pressure for him.
Dude you sound stupid how you going to say be a superstar stop telling me what you need. He's telling you what he needs to be a superstar. To avoid over exertion and then suffering He's telling you how to maximize his potential take me out the 5, I can get in the key I can work the mid-range but if I'm the only one doing that as soon as I step in the mid-range defense makes it hard for me to operate I can be even better if there's a player focal point in the key.
The Lakers do need a center tho
Dwight and kessler
Yea idk who dude on the right is but he obviously don’t want the lakers to win 😂
They have been needing this for years

Facts 💯. Talks like an idiot 😂
I agree with you
💯✔
Media likes to think they know bette than the actual players on the team 😂
AD ain't wrong. That's exactly what they need, who could give them 10 pts and 10 reb consistently and AD can solely focus on scoring.
Who's this 🤡 telling AD what he should or shouldn't do, get him off the show
They need Dwight Howard
@@chivastrice1894he’s beyond washed.
Lol no he can't play anymore. @@chivastrice1894
Lol AD at the 4 actually allows him to play better defense.

Anyone who knows anything about basketball can see A.D is better at the 4 the lakers need a true big
He’s not better at the 4, he’s better when he doesn’t have to be the bruising center every single minute he plays. He needs to be able to play at the 4 for maybe 10-15 mins per game. He’s too slow now to play the 4 full time.

N that’s what robs thinks also. Kobe would have done it. Foh
@@Smoove2You Lebron is 40. Still great because he is the goat. But well past his prime and a lot of lost stamina
@ LeBron is 40 and top 2 in trio dubs this season. I ain’t listening to that. If he’s 40 than maybe he should retire no?
Crazy how some people can ask for help and others are not allowed to.
Don’t allow this guy on ESPN ANYMORE!!!
Love how people are hating on AD for saying nothing but facts in regards to the lakers objectively and logically needing another center
If AD had a center it would unlock AD's defense even more. If Vando can stay healthy (big if) and they get any center that is better than Hayes lol, they can win a chip. I love how these media people are mad at AD for requesting another piece. But if KD or Steph are asking for help then no one has a problem with it. These people are shameless. 😂
Get Kessler and sign Howard and now we have an elite backup and a very serviceable third string to tire Jokic or whoever the opposing center is out
Howard nba days are done
AD plays well when he’s the biggest guy on the court but against bigger centers, he struggles. If Lakers think they’ll get through Denver with just Hayes as a backup think again. They need another center.
Moves still need to be made
Davis plays dominate when he feels like it
2:50 "AD stop telling me how we need a center... and go out dominate against Giannis and Jokic"
The reason why he's saying that is because he can't dominate them. What kind of stupid takes is that?
We need another center jokic stopper i think kessler or brook lopez big need im happy with vanderbilt is back and dfs vincent insane defensvie km sure hachimura will be gone soon
We do need another center, I hate these analyst clowns
Clownin with no show
Steph doesn't need to do more. Nobody expected much from him when he was drafted 4 chips all sorts of records he has no motivation his legacy is secure
No it’s not he only got 1 finals mvp
Anthony Davis had 36 points, but they highlight Lebron's stats during the highlights. I am hoping the lakers are still riding a win streak by the time they play the Knicks and Clippers.
Who is this guy that is totally wrong 😂

First … goat James

@@Goatlikeitornot obsessed with ledick
No the real goat king James 👑🐐🦾
Instead of saying two way the should just say complete
trade Rui and Redish😊
and hayes
Rui reddish Vincent and wood
That’s 36 million in salary so that 2-3 players
More ESPN trying to dismiss another Lakers win with “injury” excuses. LA owns GS, but they just hate on LA for ratings.
Kessler would be very hard to trade for. He is worth a lot to the jazz. I don’t think a 29,31 first round picks will get him.
Funny, I don't hear Charles Bark(ley) barks anymore 😅😂
Hate to see a Denver (4) vs LA (5) in da first round again 🤦
Lets AD get us another chip, lakers til I die
Nope. No title them a loong rebuild coming. Make your peace with it
Lakers are a decade away from the next ring
Unless Lebron takes a pay cut and is sixth man then they will win
Wrong 😊@@je5406

Ain’t nobody checking for the Knick’s lakers game 😂😂😂
Lakers needed a center the minute they decided not to keep dwight or mcgee
Hey ESPN, there are other teams beside the Lakers and Warriors!!!
D Mitchell carried the ball
Antman traveled big time on that deep 3 😂😂😂
Lakers should trade Rui, Hayes, JHS & 2 seconds to Chicago for Vucevic & Craig. Thats gives us much needed depth while opening up a roster spot
Steph is steadily slowing down (in terms of prime).
Just trade Curry to LAL and sign a C. lol
Lakers are the only important team in basketball according to ESPN. 🙄
Don’t listen to anyone saying lakers DONT need trades it means they aren’t watching .. Anthony Davis faced a warriors team without draymond green 😂 they need another BIG
Let that had been Bron who hurt his hand at that stage of the game, all the haters would’ve sworn he was trying to come up with an excuse for losing 😂
They tried to say he got injured 😂😂
I've seen this cat a couple times but he really talks out the side of his ess
I’m a lebron laker fan but if we don’t get another center to help AD we going no where but the play in

If Lakers actually finding their rythm. They can destroy it on trade deadline. At least find the center only.

Can a 39 year old Dwight Howard provide 10 and 10? Question

So that’s why we lost to the Lakers this time because Kerry had an off game in the second half OK
Warriors management failed the splash brothers.... 🏀

Your stunting the growth of the league by continuing to focus on LeBron.
Lakers and Lebron still ain't going nowhere though come playoff time lol and Warriors are done for good.
