It was LeBron and the Lakers fault that they lost period
Dislike the fact you failed to give any blame to the leader of this team. When it was his performance and body language, the change of tempo at the end of games take the ball away from AD at the end of stretches beyond poor defense and the two excuses at the podium(referee and its just basketball) But you pull something out you 🍑 to make a video blaming AD and coaching...Scared to make a genuine analysis about a popular person and brand and this is why your channel is Dieing
@@rolaxxx1150 I didn’t blame AD at all? How did you get that I was blaming AD from this video?
The framing of the video just cause you didn't say anything negative about his performance doesn't mean you wasn't attacking him inadvertently by helping push a false narrative about a tweet he posted. I feel like you could have gave way much more of a opinion on his tweet and talk about what you are seeing on the court instead of spewing other sources I would like to know what you think not draymond are other media moguls their opinions and feelings are unauthentic
@@rolaxxx1150 I literally went on a monologue on how I felt about his comments and about how The Lakers have treated Ham this season…
This video was in no way shape or form shaped to blame AD, I gave him props throughout and repeatedly validated what he said and pointed the finger at Ham. Even the title alludes to him being done with the Lakers mediocrity. Again, I can’t control how people take things but your assessment of this video was way off.
Players blaming a coach that they don't even listen to is crazy
Yeah since they have the best basketball mind to ever dribble a basketball playing for them , why do they even have a coach.
@@dangreene3895🤦🏽♂️
Players 50% coaches 50%. If they haven’t beaten Denver since 2022 and now it’s 2 yrs later who is to blame? No game plan to counter this so it’s the coach and players to buy in to executing plays.
@@dangreene3895 since 3rd grade he says.😂😂😂
@@kennethiwuji6700 Yea I mean why listen to a coach when you 'always make the right play'... I mean do you even need a coach when you are the choosen one?
Compare coaches. One is yelling out instructions the other thinks he is Phil Jackson.
Compare star players one is on a crusade to get head coach fired, crying for phantom fouls, mean muggin his own teammate when mistakes are made think he a new era Diva while other star is acting like a true pro claming his team down when mistake are made and working with is coach for the better of team and not worry about stats.
You mean LeBalco thinks he’s Phil? You’re right and it’s disgusting.
Without Bron the Lake show would and has a lot further.
You all are making a new argument. We know the Lakers are trash.
Coach Hamm acts like Phil by trusting his players to know what they are doing.
Coach Malone plays coach harder than the whole Lakers franchise plays basketball.
Compare players. One is playing the game, the other one thinks he s MJ. What do u expect
@@SmashingTheAntiu One player playing to get hurt and he always gets hurt meanwhile the other team player coing in with bad calf wrapped it up and proceed to poster star player
A huge (unspoken) factor: the impact of LeB’s sense of entitlement, excuses, body language, and lack of effort, especially on D-leaving LA 4-on-5 on most possessions.
Hard work (Jokic) beats talent (LeBron) when talent doesn't work hard.
@@NoahLinden What universe are you in? Lebron is playing just fine and has Zero help outside of AD.
The fact that lakers still depend on a 39 year old is the management fault for not bringing in talent. If they want to win they either back LeBron or send him out and get better talent
Perhaps Lebron should take less money to help fill out the roster. He still wants to be paid as a number one option without producing number one option results.
@@GS-mh6ubexactly lmfao these stans are clueless on how the world works😂
@@GS-mh6ub Good point thats probably the most win win option
@@GS-mh6ubclearly you don’t understand cap space lil bro
I been said they need to trade ad and LEBRON and build around reaves. Sound crazy but it’s best
Didn’t know 30 year old pros that have been in the league for a while needed the coach to tell them to play close on screens, get back on defense, force players to middle of the floor into the help. Things that I knew as a 15 year old.
The issue is that those kind of players usualy think they are above the coaches. And if they don't even assume responsability when they loose, you have a recipe for failure. At the end of the day is only basketball...according to LJ, lol!
but he still earns hundreds of millions and considers himself the goat.. What a joke.
AD said it. he doesn't know how to play basketball. he's just ridding his size and athleticism. That's the truth
@@AwesomeGIf you had watched the games and paid attention, you would know that AD is not the problem
@@terterman8585 I never said he was but he just told on himself in english. he's been playing basketball for most of his life and at times doesn't know what to do at either end of the floor.
Ad is a huge problem on transition defense and also look at him late in the 3rd and 4th quarter no effort on rebounding hands on knees etc. @@terterman8585
MJ: "And that's where I took it personal."
Lebron: "It's just basketball"...
Rent free in your head. I have no idea how ppl like you exist bro. Just enjoy the game of basketball and appreciate greatness
@@_will795 is "rent free" the new "just a hater" excuse for the cognitively impaired? 😀
The video talks about Michael Malone's behaviour after last year's sweep, about the teasing and the provocations. I talked about how MJ would have reacted, and about how James reacted.
...if that's too hard for you to understand, try something easier. I don't know - kids tv, maybe.

The thing is:
I DO enjoy criticizing this "great" wannabe, with the leadership skills of a 12 year old. That's my way of appreciating the real goat contenders.
...are you enjoying telling others that they don't behave like you want them to behave, instead of just "enjoying the game of basketball and appreciating greatness"? 🙂
@@_will795What greatness? Do you realize how hypocritical it is for "Leflop as I ram into the defenders chest" to call out the refs? I see greatness from Jokic and AD, not from Bron
Anthony Davis joined the Nuggets celebration on their bench 🤣😂🤣😂🤣
😂😂😂 u can't say that, if u dont support Lakers u aint black
By default 😂😂😂
hard to blame a coach whose players are not coachable.
ive seen kobe and duncan getting swept or lose but ive never heard them blaming or got an excuse about them losing.
Exactly my thought! Its not a talent problem with this Lakers team, its a mindset problem.
"Look everywhere but in the mirror for reasons why we loose." Noone will win anything with that mindset.
There def was excuses you just stuck on recency bias
@@gamecrazyoo1They didn't make the excuses though.
@@gamecrazyoo1 ref? It's always the ref right? how about this, all 3games lakers had a big lead coming into the 4th quarter and then their all star player made ZERO or ONE shot. 12 freaking minutes, 20+ possessions if that is DLO or Reaves i understand that but AD and Lebron?! no way. Don't pass the excuse to the ref. Just play, play better.
@@keir. how about all 3 games at least 2 laker starters couldn’t buy a bucket . These are all close games and you got laker starters finishing with 0 points , 3 points etc no team is winning relying solely on two guys scoring output. The blame is on the coach and the franchise for not making moves all year. They knew they would have to get through the Nuggets and knew they they did not have what it takes . There’s too many liabilities in each of the lineups which is a clear cut coaching and roster issue. Not to mention they are missing their best defender and energy guy in Vando. They win at least one with vando because he can run around on defense and score zero way better then the other starters. Y’all can’t dump everything on the only two players giving their all .
Frankly, I'm giving Darvin Ham a pass, because coaching Lebron is a pain in the ass. Ty Lue knows! Lebron has to play his system and has no concept of playing in a system beyond his time in Miami, because Pat Riley was a Boss and had Spostra's back-and is the only coach not fired that Lebron has played for. I will judge Ham when he can coach a team without Lebron on it.
You saw Ham beat Boston and Bucks without Bron and notice how he did it and flow of the team is much better and everyone was same page.
@@kennethiwuji6700 Good point, and great examples! Thanks!
LeBron holds the team back. He is old and everyone has to play at his pace. The game screeches to a halt and everyone is standing around watching. If LBJ was willing to become the 3rd option, and reduce his minutes to 28-30, he could still get a decent stat line and they can play the way they did in the big games they won without him. They can play fast and get everyone a bunch of shots. LBJ is still trying to be the King… but the shoes are too big now. Life long Lakers fan here, been watching since Eddie Jones and Nick Van Exel.
That's the coaches job
Your right. He is old. The pace has to slow for him. That's the COACHES JOB. Cohesion is the coaches job. Preparation is the coaches job. Scheme is the coaches job.
Which one of them has he excelled in? 🤔
I’m not saying the coach is doing his job, but question, could he? Does he really have the power to tell LBJ “The King” of basketball to sit on the weak side and wait for the swing pass after having someone else initiate the offense with AD? I doubt it.
@@christopheropeterson2816 The team hasn't been in LeBrons hands since they won the bubble. Player personnel, coaching hires, was taken out of LeBrons hands. That's why he signed a long term contract AS SOON AS they won that championship. When lebron has/wants control, he signs 2 year deals, with a 3rdyear player option, in order to keep pressure on the franchise. Darvin ham is a Lakers pick, not lebron. If he's NOT doing his job, HE SHOULD BE HELD ACCOUNTABLE. His JOB is to control that because he's been given the power to make moves for the team. If you watch the regular season, ITS OBVIOUS he is in over his head. Blaming lebron is the low hanging fruit given by the media and Jordan (anti-lebron) stans. Even simple things like knowing when to challenge, calling timeouts, and understanding the 2 minute rules, he just doesn't understand. And you can look at the adjustments Mike Malone makes and it becomes CLEAR that Darvin hamm is/has been out coached. But it's not just Mike Malone. He's honestly ALWAYS out coached in the regular season. It's just that talent has won them those games.
You’re one of those LeGM calls: “Basketball Savants”. 😂😂😂
They don't know what they're doing they have the G.O.A.T. so he says. LeCoach is the promblem crying about fouls while being +1100 free theows since the start of last season give me a break. AD had two games where he disappeared in the 4th, get ride of LeBum and build around AD.
D-Lo was on his phone during the game because attitude reflects leadership. "It's just basketball" after all....
nasty work
The fellas who “didn’t know what they were doing on the floor” must be new to the game.
Darvin Ham is LeBalco James next scapegoat
I’m loving how lebron finally years are going. 11 straight loses, can’t get passed the nuggets, the league is getting younger and super teams don’t work. 😂😂😂😂😂 I’m loving it lol
They pray on your downfall, you people are pathetic
You live to hate yeppp
Your name is unironically "meme dad" which tells me all I need to know. Some overweight 40 yr old white dude with a worse hairline than lebron's. Sit down boomer.
We lit like coooop 😎
Imagine they pull this shit off. This settles the goat debate 💯
Laker faithful 💯🤞🏾
Nope.
As soon as he took his talents to south beach, he was removed from any serious goat discussions.
@@Bilious303 That's ridiculous logic
I bet when AD fell into Nuggets bench he wished he could stay there.
No excuses. The other teams aint complaining.
Nuggets fans are full of excuses tonight
I wouldn’t be surprised if Lakers bring back Ham. That front office is proving to be almost entirely incompetent
Yeah seriously. They are going to be way too lazy to try and find someone, yk, actually good.
AD was right man. All the Nuggets do is wait until half time make one adjustment and that's game. No counter from Ham and they go away from what works. He continues to run 3 guards with Prince at the 4 and those minutes are killers usually closing quarters poorly. He benches the hot hand and waits to long to put them back in. He plays cold players extended minutes. He never calls a timeout to stop a run on the road to keep the crowd from exploding. Doesn't use challenges. It's not good process. offense/defense subs in critical moments nah hands in pockets holding the 2 timeouts and challenge that hell take home with him.
THE 🐐 COOP‼️
Should have brought Dwight back and got rid of Ham a LONG time ago. This series would look a lot different
Hahahahaha. Leclown fan I guess
The only call by the refs that was a 20 point play. Hilarious
What's good coop
Yerrr
What I don’t like about these situation is that everyone and their mother knows they are losing this massive leads because of Lebron wanting to be gm / coach / player. The media and most UA-camrs won’t dare to say it .
The Nuggets know exactly what the Lakers are doing because they only run the Lesystem.
I feel that one of the biggest issue with the Lakers is that there isn't a single voice/direction for the team. You have 2 coaches doing 2 different things, Hamm and LeBron. Hamm says one thing, LeBron says another, the rest of the team doesn't know who to follow since, disobeying one of them will have repercussions with the other. If they would just listen/follow Hamm, there wouldn't be any confusion. If something goes wrong, it's easier to figure out who's at fault; was it a particular player, was it effort, or was it a bad plan by the coach. The correction can be made easily, trade, better coaching, replace the coach; the correction can happen faster. Just an opinion.
Agreed
Here is why i hate that footage of DLo.
D'Angelo had an absolutely brilliant Game 2. He got what like 23 pts, for a guy barely making $17 million a year, whose comparible salary on the Denver Nuggets is Pope who makes the same,
D'Angelo despite a bad game 3, averaged 12 points a game for the first 3 games... I'm sorry that is exactly where he should be. He absolutely destroyed in Game 2, and do you think he was acknowledged for that effort, before Lebron threw all the role players under the bus already in the post game press conference in game 2.
Now comes game 3, and already Lebron is pointing fingers at him before the game even started, he knows he is already getting pointed at. Then he misses a few shots, let's put this in perspective, Lebron went 1 for 6 in free throws in the same game, while D'Angelo was 0 for 6. meanwhile Lebron is only throwing crap to DLo, and after Dlo misses a few shots, do you think the team had his back like the team had Jamal's back in game 2 when he struggled.
In Game 2 Jamal missed like 10-12 shots before sinking one, far higher than the 6 chances DLo had all game 7. And why is that? Because Lebron is not giving him the ball for one, and two after he misses a few. which anyone, incluiding Lebron has done in this series, instead of encouraging him like Jokic did with Jamal and tell him to keep shootint it will come. He attacks him. Meanwhile under support from his team Jamal rallies in Game 2 after that horrible start to end as the hero of game 2, all because his team mates had his back.
Compare that to the leadership Lebron of giving up and blaming DLo already in the 2nd Quarter...
So now back to that footage of DLo, there is also footage of that same 'coach's huddle' from above, and guess what Lebron is doing... ?
Which the media fails to mention at the same time DLo is sitting there already getting yelled at by Lebron for how long before that. Lebron is no where near in the huddle himself, he has his head down, covered, and completely oblivious to what is going on in that huddle as well. That's the real core issue, not Dlo the role player. Why is it that it is Reaves, AD, etc that are at least somewhere present. Where is Lebron by this point? After screwing up himself and yelling at his teammates for his mistakes for half a game already...
The real problem is not the coach, it's Lebron. If he had an once of leadership, he would been in that huddle, telling his team mates that he is going to do better, that he believes in all of them, and they can do this, that the game is in no way out of reach, they got 20 pt lead in the same amount of time against Denver just 2 games prior, they can do this easy. Jordan, Jokic would tell DLo that they believed in him, and to keep shooting.... You know, they would act like the guy who makes $47 million a year to be 'the guy'... which I'm sorry Lebron is just so not that guy....
They’re a 7th seed, play-in teams are supposed to get swept anyways if the top seeds are competent.
MESSAGE 🔥 🔥 🔥 🔥
Yes, let’s make another Lakers coach the scapegoat. Let’s not hold the central figure accountable in any way. Hollow stats Lebron James.
Ad was Hella celebrating with the nuggets....😅😅😅
😂😂😂
TY Jerome Would Be Perfect for the Lakers
Because people play NBA 2K and live their life through video games, they don't know that coaches actually have to scheme, make adjustments, make proper substitutions.
A COACH IS IN CHARGE OF ALL OF THAT.
Now which one of them is Darvin ham good at? 🤔
I get that Darvin Ham is not a good coach but if he doesn't have authority that's what happens. Lebron has too much power and refuse to listen to his coach. Note that every single coach who held him accountable for his mistakes has been fired (or he tried in Miami but failed because Pat Riley didn't want to show weakness because Lebron probably seeks for that and probably use it to get away with stuff idk)
@@vectory674 How? Where is his power? Do you mean power like kobe had? What power does lebron have? If he had power, they would have ty lue as head coach. But because his power has been gone since 2020 when he sign a 5 year deal, you get a Darvin ham. Lebron KNOWS that schemes and coaching wins playoffs. He learned that in 2007 when he was 21 years old facing the spurs and Greg popovich. He didn't just all of a sudden understand basketball in 2023. Actually WATCH basketball and stop playing 2k. Leave the media narratives alone. At your park is where all you need is talent. At the highest level, intelligence wins.
@@sholovesholove4620 what are you talking about. If you judge me without knowing my background this is already a red flag. I'm talking about the fact that Lebron is someone who has influence. He always have and will until he retire. When people can't criticize you this is a problem. When people can't speak frankly about your flaws this is a problem. When your own team seems more enthusiastic to play basketball when you are not on the game this is also a red flag. Darvin Ham is probably not a good coach but the problem is and still will be that Lebron James is a player who has leverage and influence. This is not a problem until you look at the fact that he basically always trade his team and fire his coach when they come short of his expectations. And even when he's responsible he will never take accountability.
So no he still is. It's only now that people are finally waking up and stop catering to him. I watch him play I know exactly who he is and I have my own opinion on the matter. If you have a problem with this I don't care
And to end things off if he knows that scheming is important, why does he never listen to his coach? In 2017 he didn't and 2018 didn't seem to be motivated either. Now he's old and still doesn't listen or let his team breathe.
@@vectory674 How tf do you know what he listened to? If Your background don't mention ANYTHING about coaching schematics, you are in over your head with this conversation. You should stick with the guys that watch ESPN and watch basketball to hear the commentary.
@@sholovesholove4620 Look man I don't know but if guessing is a problem to you you don't have anything to say about what I'm thinking. You also have no ground to judge my basketball knowledge just like I will not stoop to your level and judge yours. Personal attacks aside people reflect what they truly are through adversity. So you do whatever you want with that information because people are just starting to understand the pattern behind Lebron James's behavior. I will not say more since you are so offended by my speculations but you just need to look around and everyone who are talking about the subject and are not delusional understand.
Once again if you don't have anything to say about my arguments you can drop the conversation here. Because you really look like a kid now (and I don't think you are)
I mean it's the nuggets haha what did you expect going against the best team in the league
a team with a captain name lebron is like a ship barely sailing being held up with plywood with micro holes in it
If I was the Lakes, I'd trade or waive LeBron, and show everyone how good the team really is. With the same coach too.
Nuggets most likely making western conference finals again. Lakers knew regardless there gonna run into this nuggets squad
I could for sure see that
If Doc Rivers have job why Dervin Ham cant coach the Lakers next year?
That's why regardless of how popular an athlete is he should know that he is just that another player...the moment you allow him to believe he's bigger than the coach and the team it will be downhill..
Yup, once they believe that they are bigger than the organization or coach it's typically tough sledding.
Coop is literally the goat! Get him on ESPN ASAP!! 🤩🤩🤩🤩
🤝
They definitely should've thrown the play in. They have no chance against Denver. Ham's getting fired, but it's not all on him.
Another black on black firing...
Fire Darvin Ham. Actually draw up better plays that include more player movement. Find a better situational coach. This team only runs a single pick and roll play. Fanbase gets mad at players like Dlo who they never run a play to get open. Lakers will go up 10 with Dlo on court then he gets subbed out and TOs start to happen and Ham won’t put his starting PG back in the game it’s frustrating. We were winning and he was 0-4. He takes one shot in the third 0-5. he takes 2 shots in the last 2 mins of the 4th. 0-7. mainly bc Ham didn’t play him when they needed offense. This offense is dumb and boring. they swing the ball but no good plays are actually being ran.
Blaming the Coach is hard when the Coach has only 4 Players on the Court who who plays the Full Court.
😂
The player control the system. They can make the coach look great. Or make him look like trash. Then. The the James bullshit. Too. All in one. It’s a combo. In this situation
The truth hurts and AD and Ham legacy has been tremendously effected by the LeBron system of “he needs more help “ smh 😫
COOOOP
AD has no right to throw shade at the coach, him and Lebron only want to play for themselves.
Shift the blame on the coach. He had nothing to say the whole year but now they getting dominated by Denver. It’s amazing. And that’s why they’re not going to win. I hope they don’t get swept, but I wouldn’t be surprised. They are not a good team against good teams. They play well against mediocre teams and then people get all hyped on that. Denver is not mediocre. The cream of a crop at the top and they just showing it.
How the f did LeBron miss that three in that game 2? 😮 practice shot
I still can't believe it
PULL THE PLUG ON EVERYTHING BUT AD LAKER 4 LIFE !!!!
I think a lot of you are underestimating how pivotal a coach can be in a series. They’re not playing, so they’re seeing the game from a different perspective, and additionally, players have relied on coaching their entire lives, regardless of how good they are. I’m not saying Lakers deserved to win, but they sure as hell don’t deserve to get swept. One time is a fluke. Two times is a problem. 12 games in a row is telling of a deeper issue
Denver is a way better team. What's so deep about that? Anyone with a brain and 2 eyes can see that Sherlock!
@@luisvergara6502 I didn’t say they weren’t? Chill out bro lol. It’s just statistically, it’s EXTREMELY rare for a loss streak like this to happen. What I was posting about is the importance of the coach, not the skill of the teams. It’s very obvious that Denver is better, but that shouldn’t lead to ridiculous loss streaks in a series. It’s the damn playoffs, and Ham is a good for nothing. Meanwhile, the Heat steal a game against Boston in their own home court. In the case of a playoff series, this should NEVER happen. Denver is amazing, but their not so amazing that they should be taking the Lakers in a humiliation ritual, which is why I was talking about the coaches
Lakers had a good coach that wasn't taking no shit from bron so the lakers got rid of him ..blame bron for that..
damn they got beaten by the Nuggets so hard they forget how to play basketball
Maybe blame Lebron and not Ham for Ham being the headcoach of this team. No real coach will accept Lebron's habits and Lebron will let no real coach coach him.
I think when he said “We don’t know what we’re doing at times out there” or whatever the quote was…he was referring to coaching. I don’t think he likes Darvin Ham. There is clearly something going on with the two of them. And I also think AD needs to be the focal point and he probably feels the same way. lebron in year 21 at age 39 despite what the statistics say isn’t having the same level of effectiveness and he is no longer a 1A player. He needs to be the 1B
For sure doesn't like Ham, as is the case for most of the squad
Im not defending Ham coaching at all, but I'd blame more on the roster construction.
Lakers have so many low-end, 1-dimensional talent where you play like Reaves and Dlo together, your defense is pretty much compromised. Play reddish, Vanderbilt, your offense is compromised. And what worst is that all those guys aren't exactly elite or mastered their own game, so they really got no consistency anywhere besides LeBron and AD, and they can't carry the team.
And some could argue that Spo can do better with this team, which he most certainly can, but that's wishful thinking of having one of the few elite coaches. You're generally going to have a middle in the pack coach, so imo it comes down to having having enough talent, which the Lakers does not have.
I'll agree that the Lakers roster is by no means perfect but this team was good enough to at least avoid the play-in and I think to an extent that does fall on Ham. This team shouldn't of even been playing The Nuggets round 1 but when you underachieve during the regular season that's what happens.
@getlikecoop agreed. That's why I'm not defending Ham. He deserves blame as well
The Nuggets better come with it in game five if they don’t close out this Series what is the Lakers They are in big trouble the nuggets but I have it on their mind or lose this series
This dude was on his phone DURING the game!?
I didn’t want to say that because I wasn’t sure but that for sure looks like a phone to me
They don’t like the coach and none of them are on the same page. You have to fire him so the team can function. Unless you’re ok with a toxic work environment then I guess why change anything at all. If the stars aren’t on the same page with the coach and you actually care about winning you’re screwed. The organization choosing to be mad at the main guy who can actually help them win is actually insane. They obviously aren’t concerned with winning. AD clearly is.
Nuggets sweep again I'd troll his ass again if I was Malone. I'd let Lebum know if he would play for the minimum and accept playing from the end of the bench we'd get him another title.
Trolling again would be some sick stuff that I'd be here for 😂
I hear you Coop… but coaching doesn’t have as much to do with losing to the nuggets as mediocre effort (at best) in the third quarter. AD put his heart on the court but ran out of gas in Q4. The Lakers and specifically AD are kryptonite to SGA’s game. I wish they would have gambled and lost to the pels personally.
I think that the blame falls on both entities for sure but I'd lean more Ham, but I see where you're coming from. Yeah, I thought that there was a shot that they would.
I don't know , the Lakers were going to have to play the Nuggets sometime , and beating a team three times in the regular season has nothing to do with what might happen in the playoffs , ask the Suns about that .
Ham has definitely been a terrible coach though, going back to last season.
There are cerebral coaches (e.g. Thibs, Spo, Brown, Nurse) and rah-rah coaches (e.g. Rivers, Ham, Scott, etc…). The rah-rah coaching archetype is so infuriating to watch.
Time to FIRE Darvin "hands in pockets" Ham.
Problem is nobody worth a damn would take that job.
Plays up for him ,They brought AD in to take over for him but Bron ain't gonna 2 ND fiddle to nobody that's y they losing give the shots to AD or D lo. ,Reaves Watch them win
Not 1 not 2 not 3 not 4 not 5 but 11 straight losses~ lebum
Just because you beat a team 3xs in the regular season doesn’t guarantee you beat them in the playoffs bucks beat the raptors 3x in the regular season then what happened they got eliminated by them in the playoffs and they went to the finals
AD gettin cooked by flat footed Joker so yes at times Ham like bro I do not know what my 2 star player scared of this guy.
BRO stop getting mad when your best player isn’t actually a good coach to this team the statistics are there
Not sure how the kings are worse than the Lakers when we beat them 7 or 8 games in a row, but… I was hoping for lakers to play the kings
Darvin Ham has been the problem all year long and last year, he has 0 business coaching a high school team!!!
The problem for the Lakers is that no team can delay rebuilding forever. Magic Johnson made a huge mistake by bringing in LeBron and then Rob trades all the young ones and draft picks for Anthony Davis. The best thing that can happen to the Lakers is for LeBron to retire and then trade Anthony Davis for draft considerations while his stock is high.
They won a chip right? 2020? I dont think that trade for AD and free agency signing of Bron was a mistake in hindsight 🙅🏻♂️
@@CrowKage8The Lakers don't build teams to win one championship. The Lakers build dynasties. At least that was the mentality in the old days.
@@edricgonzalez2235 Before Lebron they did build dynasties...
Magic and Kareem, then Kobe and Shaq, then they made the mistake of building around Lebron who already proved he is not the guy to get it done when he and wade formed the first super super team at Miami... They had the most insane roster, and the 1st and 2nd guy, and still could not do it, and Lebron quite over and over again in the finals and then just the post season.... as soon as Wade started doing better than him, he quit...
He was never the type of leader to build a franchise around..
AD is amazing, and if you had AD with someone like Jokic, or Curry, or Giannis, Embiid, Luka, even Durant, they would have cleaned up with the rest of the LA team.
Just replace Lebron with Embiid, or better Luka. Luka would have easily brought LA to the finds this year. Even Durant with this LA team would likely be going all the way to the final game...Jokic I think is a hard nut to crack, so hard to know for sure who comes out on top, but it likely would have been LA vs Nuggets if they just replaced Lebron with Luka, or Embiid for instance, or could you imagine Curry with the rest of the LA team, what they could do?
Lebron has been the worst shadow to ever come over the Lakers franchise...
You should be blaming the front office not LeBron. They had a championship roster and blew it up to bring in Westbrook they ruined their chance at multiple rings with that dumbass move. Brining in Bron was the right move, but they definitely underachieved
@JchoKyle Facts. It wasn't a mistake but they definitely underachieved
Ya have to stop shooting bail for these players a play is drawn up and it's up to the PLAYERS TO execute coach can do only so much so it's on the players all the time to be honest they ultimately chose what they do nuff said
Trade Lebron to the Supreme Court, then he could fix the reffing problem.
Fire the coach, waive AD, don’t offer Lebron a new contract, and trade D’Angelo Russell
Get rid of Lebum & keep everyone else, you’ll have a better team next season
This is the same ole narrative with a team that has LeBron on it. Time to part ways with LeBron. Give coach, AD and the rest of the team through Trade deadline of next season to prove they can be a legit playoff team. Lakers dont have any quality draft picks for some time so its worth the roll of the dice
They should have fired Ham last year and they should fire him asap, if I was lebron I wouldn't play in LA next season unless they get a good coach!
Why lebron dress like hes in a Christian Minecraft server?
You worried about the wrong shit 💀
I ain't worried about anything
@@jonbridge6442 I ain’t?? Someone needs to go back to school 💀
It don’t matter if it’s unprofessional the fo needs a wake up call this guy literally don’t know what he’s doing the fo needs to do the right thing and fire ham
Can the Lakers get rid of Lebron in the offseason? He said he wants to play with his kid, so let other team draft Bronny James and LeBron will go. Wouldn’t that free-up a huge chunk of money for them to find a suitable replacement? Who will be available that the Lakers could pair with AD up front? I just don’t see that LeBron delivers enough value for what he’s been paid.
And please, don’t come back to tell me about his stats, that he’s “The Goat” or whatever. The goal is to win championships and the only one they got was that thing at Disney during the pandemic.
Ham is an easy scapegoat, it's never LeBron's fault.
Ham is just a scape goat, the entire team don't listen nor respect the coach. This is due to the fact that LeBron and now by extension AD, lead the team to disrespect their coach. Didn't LeBron boast vetoing Hams plans and outright tell the team not to listen to Ham.
And even during the game, LeBron basically dictate what happen on the court... heck even Substitutions.
Even if Ham is replaced... no coach can coach rhe Lakers because LeBron won't be allowed to be coached by no one and must have total control of how things are.
The nuggets are just better.
Fire ham sign and trade Le-GM
Lakers are irrelevant. Nba wants & needs the lakers. They push them. Refs got em into the 7&8 seed and now refs cant help em out now. And its embarassing lebron criticizing the refs when theyve gotten all the calls the last few years. Espn promoted the game the other day highlighting LEBRON and his career and not a single image of jokic and the nuggets. And thats the best player in the nba and thats your defending champs. Media feeds his ego. Silver feeds his ego. And at one point they will both pull the plug on him.
I watched a super slo-mo video of the Nuggets after defensive re bounds and made shots by the Lakers. The Nuggets beat the Lakers up the floor on every play. The Lakers just aren't that good. They barely made the playoffs at all. Frankly, the Lakers have been in every game.
What do you mean barely made the playoffs? They were like 3 games out of 5th place and 4 out of 4th lol just say you hate the Lakers
They’re missing 3 important pieces due to injury but people forgot about that for some reason
I mean AD come on man. You're a veteran. Go figure something out while playin the game bro 😅
AD needs to go to Milwaukee for Dame
It’s time to blow it all the way up and it’s sad cause the only guy worth a massive haul is AD, Lebron will be 40 so we will continue to see the same results, not his fault but he’s going to be 40 not the same Bron from 2020 not even close
So sad for the smartest player to ever touch a ball to have his career messed up by a plethora of bad coaches and terrible teammates..if only he had more LeHelp.🌚
fuck it
beal and bronny james for AD
😭
Did you say the Lakers were undoubtedly better than Sacramento this year?....
The Kings swept LA this season.
Sweeping a series doesn’t make a team better or worse than another.
It’s no one’s fault. Denver is just too good.
Come on you cant be serious, Frances
Nonsense. These whining Laker players, especially AD, just can’t except that the Nuggets are ar, far superior.
Hence, the silly excuses.
I'm Old school l.a.laker fan ,I love the team,and the nba period,but these players today making the kind of money that they just don't have the guts,are heart for the game like the players from the 60's70's80's90's r early 2000's I hear a lot negative comments from og players from the past on the game of today.
They had a good team and won the Mickey Mouse Tournament. Since then, they blew up the team because they thought Westbrook would help them be a super team. Three different coaches, multiple trades, multiple lineups, and their house of cards keeps falling. After trying everything else, maybe it's time to look at the broken foundation you built your house on and get rid of Bronze.
AD had been outplaying Bronze until Bronze decides he's had enough of that. Bronze isn't that guy. His bully ball scheme isn't working anymore, his turnovers are atrocious, his free throw percentage is scrub material, and his lack of defense is a huge liability. He gets his points and that's it. For the money the Lakers are paying him, yeah, they are getting ticket sales but sacrificing wins. Stans will call me a hater but I'm just saying the quiet part out loud.
Didn't AD force his way to the Lakers? You reap what you sow, I guess.
