  1. As a Lakers fan they won't truly have their window to win until like 2 years. Once LeBron is gone next year (hopefully) as a free agent it will still take probably one more year after that to get the adequate pieces around for Luka to thrive. And trust the NBA desperately wants the Lakers to be good whether you hate it or love it. Just a matter of time.

  2. It’s all personnel. I don’t think JJ is responsible for assembling a team with a 41 year old and a bunch of guys that could care less about defense.

  3. Are we back to "the Coach has lost the Locker Room" for the Lakers again? Different Coach. Same problems. Especially with the poor transition Defense. At some point, it's on the Players.

  4. Perk is fun to listen to and a great former celtic. But anyone else notice Perk is allowed to say the lakers cant defend….but somehow their own coach cant discuss a game with poor defense. Furthermore, Redick didnt call out a single individual player. I sense some racial undertones. Redick is being told he cant be critical even when everyone else is saying exactly the same thing.

  5. Lol nobody understand what JJ is saying. This Roster you built Rob isnt good enough for the system, culture, scheme i want to run. Ive watched 🎥, practice etc with them. Watch everyone say well lebron takes 50 million. True but Gabe, Vando,Maxi, Rui all make bout that. Your Job is to build. Lakers have the worse bench in NBA guys. Luka Bron n Luka can go off but if our OTHERS arent good enough 1st round exit. Because i know someone dumb gonna come talk about bron. But again This Luka Team. Bron couldn't get a extension yall said. Luka runs this yall said. Now when LA with luka get to next year year after with no ring or mvps. Who will yall finally blame 🤔? Klutch 😂 or Rob? Or will you blame luka? Because when it was 23-6 you expected a chip. At 30 plus years old lol. Not 26 27. We gonna see Will yall Keep that same energy for 77.

  6. Kendrick has a personal issue with JJ. Just watch the first take days. I’m sure if JJ was different color perk would say different

  7. Perk is elite at switching up. A month ago, the Lakers were going to the WCF 😂😂😂.

    I need one of these YouTubers to put together a montage of Perks switch ups.

  8. All these teams suck at defense. We are constantly seeing average games with the final score being 120 points or more from both teams. Some days you see the final score 130 or more from both teams. Seriously, that is all offense and no defense!

  9. JJ hasn’t thrown anyone under the bus here. He’s spoken about accountability publicly. What is he supposed to say? He didn’t name anyone individually.

  10. Perk still holding that grudge against JJ from working together he got checked 🥱 by JJ

  11. Can someone explain how Boston, the most titled NBA team, can't be among the teams that play Christmas games??
    I think the Knicks, Lakers, Celtics should be there every year..

  12. Yall just want to baby these mfers……. Everybody not about to coddle to their feelings… if they trash on defense, then they’re trash on defense…. F all that sugar coating

  13. Let's pull back and look at this. Everyone save for a few guys are new on the team…….even ownership has changed…….yet these are the same problems they have had for some time. What is the constant and also taking up max cap space while having a negative statistical effect on their games?………….maybe I got to pointed at the end

  14. AR needs to be traded for a better defender because him paired with Dincic makes the Lakers the worst defensive backcourt in the league

  15. Those commentators praise Chris Paul for calling out his teammates, yet they have a problem with coach Reddick for calling out his team.

    Reddick only answered a reporter's question honestly and he's right. The Lakers don't have enough to contend and someone's gotta say it.

  16. The Lakers since Lebron came back have been worse defensively. They were only giving up 107pts before he came back. It does not take rocket science to know what is wrong with the team. 🤷
