I already like what I’m seeing from JJ Reddick’s system. Everyone touches the ball and every player were used to their strengths. He’s not a “give the ball to Bron or AD” guy. AD had a monster game because he was getting the touches he deserves. And he actually rotates his players. Lebron didn’t need to score 40 just to win. DLo was facilitating very well and being used in pick and rolls. He is already a massive upgrade to Ham

@@unbiasedramsfanRandell not %100 it was clear if you watched the game I'm not making excuses I'm just saying the Lakers played for intensity for the Hollywood moment so my team didn't have room to take a night off
What's wild to me is what stood out the most is jj Reddick. I haven't seen a Lakers team this ready opening game in a long time. His rotations were on point. Timeouts on point. Any time Minnesota even started a comeback he got the team focused. He was on point with everything all night long. He was loud , and tenacious with the refs , more than he ever was as a player. This might be a big year for la if and only IF ad can do this all year. If he can they will be a problem. As a Lakers fan I'm excited. I onow it was just a single game but as already stated. He had them ready. He had them focused. He had them crashing the boards. Had them taking good clean shots. Had them competing defensively. I'm glad they got a coach that understood first hand how to get buckets . He actually had a strong presence i didnt know if hed have as a coach ... Very impressive coaching debut imo
@@benediklagrata-ty6tn last time they won a title is when ad played a ton of 5. He may not like it. But the team has functioned at its best when he plays the 5 and everyone knows it.

Love the way jj is handling this team a lot of ball movement and encouraging his guys to competitive at all times. It’s seems like lakers have taken on the dna of their coach, love it.
But understand even though Dalton is a rookie he’s the same age as Anthony Edwards Max Christie is younger than him so he’s playing with experience younger players will catch up to him
The Laker player movement to get easy shots cannot be understated. Instead of iso they’re finally utilizing the size of their players. And the effort on the boards!
@@cjm2371more defensive schemes , double ant , which forces him to pass the ball . More ball movement , scoring off of cutting . Isn’t what they usually do, more mid range shots , instead of threes . And bron only played 34 min in a close game , that’s very rare
I’m not thinking JJ will be that much of an improvement but at least you don’t need to worry about the lineup changing every week and having Prince in the lineup for some reason.
@@CWB-ke4md he was +7 in the box score, i didnt personally watch the game but he went to UT to learn how to defend at a high level. He will be alright lol 3 and D is all they need.

Dude, stop. Enjoy the game. Enjoy the play. Enjoy the win. There's no reason for you to make up something to be mad about. Go touch grass@@carlocalingasan998
I was proud how active the lakers were around the rim on the boards. I get it is the first game but I really love seeing the energy. Hayes was super active and was rim running. He should be a free 8-10pts every game just for being active
@@carlocalingasan998 For a Rookie, he looked great. It's a shame he's on this Lakers team, really. If he was on a team without 2 superstars, he'd be a starter and have an opportunity of getting at least 15PPG his rookie year.
The Lakers' new coaching staff is no joke. JJ Redick, Nate McMillan, and Scott Brooks. It's gonna be a great season. Edit: To those saying it's just one game. NO SHIT. It's the only game we have seen because it's all there is. Wtf? Y'all so butthurt. This game showed good coaching potential and looked a lot better than the previous one.
@@GotThatdogInHim512I could be right but the offense looks drastically different from last year. Lakers couldn’t hit their threes but overall much more movement
@carterfinance2376 he won defensive player of the year last year because what he gave minnesota on defense last year helped them win 56 games it's that simple ad. However, despite being better than gobert was play in all year so yes gobert rightfully won over him
That's how I felt last season when the Clippers held the #1 seed for 24 hours 😂 I can see the Lakers actually holding on this season if this is how they'll play moving forward

This Laker team be giving me 2020 vibes already, it’s like another breath of fresh air I know it’s one game but I hope they keep this up with this new coaching staff 💛💜
I think the Wolves will really miss KAT…he spaced the floor for Ant and gave them a big that could go inside/outside. With Gobert it’s always 4 on 5 on offense, and KAT was consistent as they come. Now Nas Reid has to play a bigger and different role.
I think Minnesota made a big mistake trading KAT to the Knicks. They literally lost one of their best scorers and his production is not going to be easy to replace.
@@MikeBreeWhy the Lakers couldn't just be the better team and played better? To claim they downgraded when they only had one good year in the last 15 years is disingenuous..
after watching both the knicks and wolves play it’s clear that the trade killed both team’s chemistry n it’ll take a while for them to even have the possibility of looking decent all season
Well, the Wolves also should run the offense through Randle. Doesn't mean he takes the most shots. But his strength is bully ball, draw a double, kick out and get motion in the offense. Ant grinds the offense to a halt. Just all iso ball, contested jumpers, etc. Inefficient scoring, and he's a bad passer. Too many of his kick out passes are at guys' feet or nearly over their heads. Ant is not a team player on offense, and this team is designed to have the ball moving with lots of player motion. Feed Randle, let everyone cycle around him Warriors' style (treat Randle like Draymond on offense, only a better scorer).
JJ redick indeed, is not being outworked. Team looked good, prepared, and had an identity already in just their first game. JJ was the perfect guy to come in & maximize with what talent you do have. He also convinced AD to transition to the 5 & he’s never committed to it with any coach. That says JJ has respect and pull.
This roster is good enough to win. They were last year too. Structure and Identity has been a problem with the Lakers. JJ brings offensive structure while allowing guys to play their game. The ball moved with fluidity and guys took shots in their comfort and range. The Lakers were missing this last year. My only push back is I believe Max should be starting over AR. His defense and length add more balance to start the game. Great opener. In JJ We Trust.
The assist totals from last night were remarkable for the Los Angeles Lakers. Ball got moved around, their were rim rocking jams throughout the teams performance, and overall everyone came through. Good fight by the Timberwolves. Alexander Walker and Anthony Edwards were two of the most exciting players for them. I am starting to think that Donte should join the 3 point competition for All Star Weekend. Divencenzo best strength is knocking down shots from deep distance. And I got to say the points in paint and getting on the fast break looked very good at times for Los Angeles. As a unit who thrived under LeBron and Anthony Davis this was truly a fantastic matchup to see. Great first victory, Lakers. That Jaxson Hayes dunk over Gobert and AD block shot brought two top highlight reels at Staples Center.
I remember how many of the media were criticizing the Lakers for Ham's firing, and also defending Ham as a solid coach. I know it is only one game, but i think Lakers definitely upgraded in the coaching department. One thing that really puzzled me about Ham's decisions was his constant lineup changes and rotations, even with all the injuries last season. JJ seems to enter the season already with a solid rotation and substitution schedule. Plus, there were several designed plays out of timeouts that they scored very easy baskets. Maybe JJ also had a hand in the emergence of Jackson Hayes who had a fantastic game. Knecht also a reason to be excited. We will keep watching and hoping for the best.
JJ actually called a timeout when the Wolves cut into the lead. He’s already better than Ham 😂
That that what I saw. Love see JJ face attitude
💯🤣
The Bucks should have called up JJ Redick instead of Rivers.
And plays 2 big at some point, rotate players more, and gave Knecht a decent time for a rookie
You all acting like the Lakers are 10-0 record when in reality it is just 1-0. Oh the hype.. 😆

Go Lakers For championship 💪💪💪🇵🇭🇵🇭🇵🇭
Nope
Lakers def. have a squad - to me, their dark horses will be Rui, Dalton, and Austin w/ consistent ppg. We shall see!
Lebron and bronny playing together is historical glad im alive in the era
after watching both the knicks and wolves play it’s clear that the trade killed both team’s chemistry n it’ll take a while for them to even have the possibility of looking decent all season
Minn defense is impacted. they had 3 bigs . Randal doesnt play smart
Well, the Wolves also should run the offense through Randle. Doesn't mean he takes the most shots. But his strength is bully ball, draw a double, kick out and get motion in the offense. Ant grinds the offense to a halt. Just all iso ball, contested jumpers, etc. Inefficient scoring, and he's a bad passer. Too many of his kick out passes are at guys' feet or nearly over their heads. Ant is not a team player on offense, and this team is designed to have the ball moving with lots of player motion. Feed Randle, let everyone cycle around him Warriors' style (treat Randle like Draymond on offense, only a better scorer).
I would’ve laughed my ass off if they put Bronny on the thumbnail 😂
😂😂😂
Look In The Description Bro😂
You can keep laughing in your basement. Kid is living the life.
@@WonnoWonno1 rebound from Bronny is crazy 😭
@@runrun3014Your attempt to D**k EAT failed miserably🤡
LET'S GO!!!! #LakeShow everyone looked REALLY engaged. Love to see it.
D’Lo punched a ball that he could’ve rebounded. 5:28, dude has lost the plot, you’re not showtime
@7:20 “Edwards with a long 2”, scorers table counts as 3 - game continues 🤨🤨🤨
It was a 3. The announcer didn't notice the step back
@@LeAndre_McCoythe refs hand never went up to count as a 3 tho
YeA nahh it was a long 2 regardless , refs hand wasn’t up signaling a 3
JJ redick indeed, is not being outworked. Team looked good, prepared, and had an identity already in just their first game. JJ was the perfect guy to come in & maximize with what talent you do have. He also convinced AD to transition to the 5 & he’s never committed to it with any coach. That says JJ has respect and pull.
It's the first game, why do yall do this every year?
@@FlyAwayChi The Lakers haven't won a season opener since 2016.
will probably promise AD he will not gonna play that 5 for long, once they gonna have a natural 5, he will gonna be a 2020 MVP mode again.
I hope he doesn’t stay 5, we still need a solid big man, and for the love of god Vincent is useless, we could get solid big man for 11mil
@@FlyAwayChi they were talking about how well the first game went. what do you want them to do? let fans be excited over their team getting a win
Great start lakers banner 18 is coming I’m calling it go lakers forever💜💛🏀.
Yessss
Edwards need help, Gobert can’t guard AD… Minnesota got work to do
Bro the hell chillout it's 1 game out of 82
This roster is good enough to win. They were last year too. Structure and Identity has been a problem with the Lakers. JJ brings offensive structure while allowing guys to play their game. The ball moved with fluidity and guys took shots in their comfort and range. The Lakers were missing this last year. My only push back is I believe Max should be starting over AR. His defense and length add more balance to start the game. Great opener.
In JJ We Trust.
Rui is that special. I love this moment for Lebron and Bronny History 💪🏾💯
I don't know what got into Rui but 😤 That's what I want to see! 💪
KAT should not have been traded!!!
Yeah, having 2 bigs was better
He was such a big reason they made it that close last year. Randal is a major downgrade. Moral down for multiple reasons now
@focuz4899 the 2 bigs were d main reason Nuggets lost!
they trying to force it into Edwards team playing Wade Kobe MJ ball... cost them big time
@@aquamarine56 Exactly 💯
AD ACTUALLY HEALTHY 👏🏾
Let’s Go Los Angeles Lakers!
4:05 took my heart out ❤
4:54 one of his best Akron hammers of all time lowkey.
Bro real talk LeBron dunk the air out of that ball
Bruh just seen this I said I never seen one so good best he’s probably ever done
Keep it up lakers 😊💜💛💜
Bro Lakers are really looking good, altho its their first game. They look different, Hoping them to stay healthy
Bronny got them looking different right? hopefully they make the playoffs and lay off the glazed donuts.
Hope we get Van back soon... gonna need that defensive pressure against the likes of Golden State and Denver
@@Talkaboutitmedia5 you have a lot of free time, Idc about bronny or you, I just want the team to win, I don't entertain retards lol
The assist totals from last night were remarkable for the Los Angeles Lakers.
Ball got moved around, their were rim rocking jams throughout the teams performance, and overall everyone came through. Good fight by the Timberwolves. Alexander Walker and Anthony Edwards were two of the most exciting players for them. I am starting to think that Donte should join the 3 point competition
for All Star Weekend. Divencenzo best strength is knocking down shots from deep distance. And I got to say the points in paint
and getting on the fast break looked very good at times for Los Angeles. As a unit
who thrived under LeBron and Anthony Davis this was truly a fantastic matchup to see.
Great first victory, Lakers. That Jaxson Hayes dunk over Gobert and AD block shot brought
two top highlight reels at Staples Center.
Game At A Time ❤ Nice Lakers W One Down ❤
This will be a revenge year for the Lakers!
JJ in one game is already a better coach than Darvin Ham ever was 😂
fr😂
He could be the next Phil Jackson
if you are watching his podcast with lebron on Mind The Game, you know he knows the X and O of basketball.
Rui's starting to get his presence in game 🥶⚡
He always dominates the Timberwolves.
Hopefully the father and son duo will win this year
I remember how many of the media were criticizing the Lakers for Ham's firing, and also defending Ham as a solid coach. I know it is only one game, but i think Lakers definitely upgraded in the coaching department. One thing that really puzzled me about Ham's decisions was his constant lineup changes and rotations, even with all the injuries last season. JJ seems to enter the season already with a solid rotation and substitution schedule. Plus, there were several designed plays out of timeouts that they scored very easy baskets. Maybe JJ also had a hand in the emergence of Jackson Hayes who had a fantastic game. Knecht also a reason to be excited. We will keep watching and hoping for the best.
Lakers going places this year man !!
@@Talkaboutitmedia5 All you got is UA-cam comments to read cIown 🤣🤣🤣🤡
Until AD goes down
Play in again
It’s only 1 game
lets go lakers!! ❤❤❤ first W of the season.
That two big lineup sure does help AD. LA also has more motion to their offense. We just have to see if they can sustain this and remain healthy.
NO MATTER WHAT HAPPENED LAKERS NATION SOLID PURPLE N GOLD MAMBA MENTALITY💪🏆🙏🌟
Lebum can't shoot for shit when they need it lol.
That's amazing father and son together in one team
7-9 run by Wolves after father and son check-in... Amazing Duo
Keep the momentum until the end of the season. LAL!!!
Them blow it in the playoffs💀
@@GotThatdogInHim512 let's just enjoy the win tonight😂😂😂the season just started lol
Another milestone for the king
Good please tell him to retire now, let the next generation shine. He’s really watering the NBA down.
They made "history" by both bricking back to back wide open 3s. 👌
Strong performance by the Lakers, good way to start the season.
