It’s Legoof
Embiid is the current MVP front runner according to PERK
Is is That hard to have Men who played the game as Panelists analyzing Men who played the game?
If the team isn’t connecting and it’s a reflection of the coach…. Should the coach call out the players to fix it?
There is no world where JJ is wrong for holding his players accountable he trippin
Perk is still mad about JJ cooking him on ESPN for years
The Lakers don't have a problem, they lost to the Rockets… so what! Lets see who is there in the end, and we all know what the Rockets do when its go time
They blamed JJ and then elaborated and agreed with everything JJ said 😂. This way, espn analysts can claim to be correct either way. I get it now
13:45 – this!! This sort of thing happens everywhere, not just in basketball. Well said.
They are fkn up these shows by Putin women on here that think they know what they are saying
I'm just wondering why LeBron took the player option. 52mil isn't an issue to him, and he knew Luka/Reeves were the future. And if there isn't enough to win with then why stay??!! A He could be anywhere else that could use him. Take less money he could have gone to Detroit Cleveland San Antonio really anywhere. Think him and Giannis wouldn't have work with what they have as role players,in a weak conference, Kyle knows his ways…bottom line he had options he apparently didn't want to explore. We see the 52mil ain't making him happy or anyone else on the team.😂😂 Joker is a "not your typical athlete" phenom!😤
Only Kendrick I listen 👂 to is Lamar not 🤡 azz Perkins
Nobody trying to hear that bs. Lebron knew that roster sucked way before luka got there but yet he still signed that contract. Cry me a river.
Perk was trash in the league and trash on espn the real problem is LeBron.Michael Jordan or Kobe woulda be tryna fight his players or get them traded if they was playin like that but bron just wanna be friends wit everyone
22 free throws tho.
LeBron been my favorite player since 2013. My entire childhood was LeBron. I became a lakers fan because he went to LA. With that being said. He is the f*cking problem!!!
Ryan + Perk + Monica + NO SAS = I’m watching
Youth doesn’t mean potential dynasty it’s winning that will stamp that or not!
Time for bron to come off the bench. Bron luka and reaves on the court = 0 defense.
Lebron James IS the problem in Los Angeles. The porcelain princess Lebron James needs to either be traded or retire immediately. He is the ultimate team annihilater. He has been a cancer on the league since he started.
I hear people saying LeBron is still a top 10 player.
I also hear people saying Lakers don’t have enough.
If your third option is top 10, how do you not have enough?
Austin Reeves or Lebron James needs to come off the bench. Choose1
JJ wants something out of a roster he just won’t get, the roster is flawed
The main problem the Lakers have is Lebron's 50 million salary, once he is gone they can afford several great players to make them a winning team.
You know what perk why don't you ask lebron james because he is the reason why the lakers are struggling because when he is out we are not being push like this but when he comes back all he do is NEGATIVE for the team just check the plus minus
You cannot win a chip with Luka , Nico was right all along
Perkins picked them to make the Finals before the season. That's how dumb this guy is.
Everyone trying everything not to call out James
Lebron is the problem; it's not hard to say ESPN
Uuuhhh so I looked up this channel and first take uploads. The last time they mentioned LeBron was over a month ago. And now after a 3 game losing streak here's come the hot takes 🤣🤣🤣 anyone taking this show seriously is not worth talking basketball
Perkins is a racist.
Do you still listen to perk? 😂😂
We've been horrible since Leclown returned and JJ can't do anything about it since Leclown got him the coaching gig.
When JJ gonna apologize to Doc Rivers
Luka isn't the problem, im a lebron fan but lebron tripping
Master P ain’t gon like that “Fell off like No Limit” comment
We miss you Molly ❤
Man can yall just fire perk? His takes are always a joke
Lebum is the elephant 🐘 in the room 😂😂😂
LeBron is the problem.. They were winning when he was out.. ESPN just scared to blatantly criticize LeBron. JJ is a NEW coach and is still figuring it out. But you can tell certain guys, like LeBron, do not take him or the team as serious as he SHOULD. He has given up on trying to win a championship because he knows the team is being handed over to Luka. This is why I give coaches like Steve Kerr so much credit.. He knows how to talk to guys individually and bring them together. He's done it for 12 years? With 8 or 9 different iterations of a Warriors team. JJ was saying he is having a hard time managing the different personalities.
lakers problem is they don’t have alot of scorers 😂 their bench ain’t no help either
Joker for sure
LeBron is my favorite player of all time. But even i know what the solution is. BENCH HIM!!!
I thought you were a good coach even tho you have only coached a kids team. But now you give up!!! When the going gets tough the tough gets going!! Look in the mirror to see the problem!! Get your buddy off the tram!!
JJ really needs some firemen and plumbers to work with
Embiid is better
I've lost so much respect for LeBron over the years. I used to think he was treated unfairly, but while that's also true, it's pretty clear he brings chaos everywhere. All we heard was how insane the Luca trade was. He picked the coach. The team absolutely at least has a chance of a title, but here come the excuses and passive aggressive leaks from Klutch. He may be the best basketball player ever in terms of physical skill and IQ, but he doesn't win more for a reason. Glass is always half empty. Warriors get Jimmy Butler, not Luca, and the Warriors were doing backflips last year. LeBron could never build that kind of stability.
