Too much disrespect from that woman… Lebron still putting up good numbers and Lakers just need a good 3 D guy for the perimeter and they good .
However no way you can say once you getting paid you suppose to win or go a finals the why don’t half the other players don’t do it then
Idk who needs to hear this but LeBron is WAAAY past his prime. The Lakers are the ones being wasted trying to cater to a 40+ year old athlete that only plays one side of the ball and ruins team chemistry
That question no longer valid — Bron is good but he dont have same impact on winning by far, .. gotta stop with these same narratives
Lebron gotta go somewhere else, problem solved. Lakers don’t want him!
The Lakers are in a better position, stop being dumb lol they have a 26yr old leading the league in scoring… next year when they build around them yall will be saying something different
Michelle beatle is such a hater
She's a terrible host.
Lol. NO !! LeBron is wasting the Lakers and Luka!!
Bro wtf is boogie doing saying the forbidden numbers😂
does anyone find Michelle as annoying as i do
Send bronnie to day care n bench lebron
They sound like they working for network😂 Sooo having the best roster 5 of the 7 years don’t mean nothing. The East was weak all three of them know firsthand smh
Yep, Rob and Jeanie have been wasting Bron's last years since the 2023 WCF
What damn joke of a show and topic. A 41 year old LBJ smh. If anything they are wasting Luka’s time. LeBron is done after this season, Lakers didn’t offer him a contract extension past this year. Stop the BS. The Lakers aren’t going to get better until they get rid of LBJ. Same old blame everyone else but LBJ, they have lowered the standards for LBJ. They don’t blame LBJ for any team failure but they wanna give him all the credit if they were to be successful, clown shit. Beale is the only on keeping real and not with the BS.
LeBron is wasting the Lakers! Took 50ms instead of helping the team build 😂😂
The Lakers were better without bron in the lineup
Is LeBron wasting the Lakers?
Lebron sucks,… trade him. This is his last year with the Lakers THANK GOD!
Man you're full of sh!t Lefraud is wasting the Lakers time if anything.
Leclown has been washed for years and us Lakers Fans are tired of him
Chandler is a little too nice. Would like to see him be a little less careful with his words and speak up more.
This season is not meant to compete for a title! The lakers won’t make moves until Queen James is gone which he’s in his last few months remaining! It’s obvious why the new laker owners didn’t offer the Queen an extension that alone speaks volumes cause they will have the cap space to add better talent next year to help Luka and Reeves moving forward, the future looks brighter for laker fans!!! 🙌
Every year I hear the same excuse, “They need some help”! How about they need a better COACH. Defense is effort so no excuses.
Lebrun wasting luka times lol lebum is washed
The bron hate is crazy
This guys are a bunch of luka haters specially that lady comentator that have zero knowledge on basketball why is she even there
The lady comentator really pissed me off remove her
Wassup with this female she seems super negative I cut it off ! I like the rest of the crew
More like the other way round. LeParasite and his nepo son
Isn't it opposite? Lebron is wasting Lakers' full season.
HE IS 41 YRS OLD and taking the second most shot 🏀 attempts every single night…….and yet HIS MEDIA is complaining for him. 😮 I'm tired. I just want him gone from the NBA. This after ACTIVELY TAMPERING with his own teammate to be traded via agent because he was threatened by his 27.5 ppg average. He successfully iced him out on the court to get him down to 26.0 ppg before Austin sat down. I'm no genius. No dummy either. Austin sat down to avoid LeBron until he can be traded. Or he will wait it out until free agency and take someone else's money……simply for being sabotaged by a lame duck 🦆 player with no incoming extension from his own team and interest from anyone else.
