  1. This will not be a good matchup for golden state. For starters lakers are just gonna let Jimmy do what he wants while leaving dray wide open in the corner or at the top of the key then they’ll throw Gabe/Dfs/Vando at Steph for 48 min. Then on the other side when Steph’s not getting switch hunted by Luka/lebron/Rui he’s gonna have to guard Reaves😂

  2. Just remember folks when the trade happened, Monica was in that group of people who said that the Warriors trade & the Lakers trade wasn't going to make a difference in this year playoff race !! 💯😂

  3. What I don't hear enough is the biggest factor for LeBron… Hes the most genetically gifted basketball player ever. Hes just built differently than everyone else its basically unfair to compare him and his longevity to anyone else

  4. I would love for the Lakers to face GSW… not because it’s LBJ vs Curry…. I mean some of it is that… but more importantly Lakers match up well with GS who lacks a dominant big and perimeter size. I take Luka and LBJ over Curry and Butler any day in a match up.

  5. Warriors not matching the physicality of the Lakers. Not matching the defense either even with Butler, it would be a fun series but Lakers taking it in 6 games max. Not a single person stopping Laker Luka either.

  6. Hi, I am a Lakers fan. I also wondered how LeBron can jump high and land without decay on the knees. The age of my group when we hit 40, jumping meant pain in the knees.

    Could someone ask LeBron, "have you ever done stem cell treatment on your knees?".

    How can he jump and land for so long and he projects he could play another two years? How does his meniscus not have wear and tear. Where does his force from ground to his knees, when he lands, goes? Something does not make sense?

    Captain is the goat there is no king in USA.

  7. Steph is the only player in the league who, if he plays his best game, can beat any team no matter how good they are. You cant stop Steph. He has to miss to lose.

  8. A collision course – yes, though indirectly. So many games left, complex possible seeding scenarios, and other hidden factors diminish the chances of it happening. Lakers and Dubs command an entire spectrum of supporting interests.

  9. how are we saying warriors can match up to lakers they will get smoked I dont think warriors can beat Memphis or Denver in a 7 game series

  10. You people need to join reality, no one in America is going insane over Lebron/Luka unless they live in Los Angeles or are working for mainstream media. The media loves to lie. ESPN loves to lie!!!! REALITY is no matter how much you all want to worship Los Angeles, the rest of America knows that the only way Older than Dirt cant guard anyone Lebron and doesn't know the meaning of defense Luka, will ever be able to stop Jayson Tatum or Jaylen Brown. The only way the Lakers can win a title with that trash group of G'League talent around Luka and Lebron's all trash defense is if the refs and adam silver rig it to happen. Which since the league and everything about it since adam silver took over is scripted. Who really gives a crap.

  11. The Golden State Warriors have probably the easiest schedule going forward and the media is eating this up as well as the rest of you casuals who want to see anybody take down LeBron so that he doesn’t win his fifth championship

  12. Y'all Lakers fans don't know ball saying the Warriors would get smoked by LA. AD has been killing the Warriors the last several matchups and now he's gone. We def ain't afraid of Luka, who we gentlemen swept a few years ago lmao. A series between these two would be 🔥 tho

  13. We will gladly eliminate the Warriors from the playoffs again if need be. No shade to Steph, he’s great. But the Lakers are better.

  14. If LeBron gets close to another chip, there’s no way he’s losing to SGA or Boston. He’s going all out. He can be the certified goat with another ring.

  15. Lebron ain’t better than Luka but he should get MVP consideration for carrying the Lakers throughout it all

  16. Windy needs to relax at 6:59 and stop speaking for Bron. You can def argue that Bron is better scorer than Kareem. Scoring 50k points is absolutely a scoring record

  17. It’s funny espn was saying the Jimmy trade wouldn’t move the needle.From 11th seed to being a play off team I guess the needle is moving in the right direction.

  18. Respectfully, I disagree He scored on less shots and you can play in the league for 20 years. I guarantee you. They're not gonna break Kareem record, but he did and he did it more efficiently. So it's more than just longevity, it's him dominating and scoring he helped 3 teams go to the finals. The first player to do that N was MVP. In the playoffs, especially in the finals, he outscored both teams. With points, rebounds and assist, no one else has done that. He is a scorer, but he looks to get his teammates involved. Also
    There could be no one else that would have broke this record so remember, it's not about longevity.Lebron james is indeed a scorer

  19. As far as the west goes i have 3 first round match ups i personally wanna see:

    1. Lakers vs Clippers: the battle of LA has to happen and this might be the only year it can happen. Lebron and Luka vs Kawhi and Harden

    2. Nuggets vs Warriors: i have a sneaking feeling this goes 7 games and Jokic vs Curry will be a masterpiece of NBA offense and id say they're evenly matched

    3. Thunder vs Timberwolves: we saw it last year and the question is can Anthony Edward's make magic happen again. On paper OKC should sweep Minnesota or beat them comfortably in 5 games but what if the series is 2-2 heading back to OKC? Ant is the kinda player who screams upset alert like what jimmy butlers done with the heat his game elevates in the playoffs and he just knocks off juggernauts

    Also as a bonus i had higher hopes for the knicks but i fear they might not make it out the first round especially if they draw Indiana or Milwaukee

  20. Curry leading a new rag tag team of players to a potential top 5 spot. I mean the roster in comparison to others is laughable, but they're not far back from most teams in the league it's actually insane. He might be the ultimate franchise player.
