Hey Allie, ask your podcast buds Richard Jefferson and Channing Frye (The LeBron Boys) they said on your podcast with you sitting there and not saying a word that "The Lakers have a rude awakening without Lebron for the next five years" You Allie are a sell out you can't have it both ways. Don't pretend you're a Laker apologist when you don't have the guts to stand up to LeBron's hired hit men. Hypocrite!
"Bronny James High School" you mean Ziaire Williams High School he was three times the high school player that little Bronny ever was. Ziaire was Player of the Year his Senior year and carried his team to a State Championship, Bronny was just a team member in High School, never has been the best player of his team ever.
I lowkey really like this team
Reaves slob fest… hilarious. Reaves got a max contract when he's not a max player.
He makes more money this year than SGA and Brunson but you frame it like he's a hero. Reaves makes the same salary as Chet Holmgren and Jalen Williams 41.24M……SGA 40.8….Brunson 39.75….but sure, Austin is a hero
Every year LeBron had a new contract, he could have given up millions every year for the Lakers Come On! Now LeBron is willing to take a minimum contract for another team now that he's leaving the Lakers. You guys are a joke
LAL get Kuminga 17mil, NNaji 7mil
ATL gets Watson 24 mil ,DK 5mil,
Denver get pick swap from LAL and 2 2nd Hardy 6mil from the Lakers, 2 firsts from ATL and Zach Risacher 14mill
No Lebron makes this Laker squad better
Lakers are terrible, no defense, no athleticism, asking Luka who he wants on team as if he's ever won anything in the NBA. Paying AR a max? when competition gets real he folds like a lawn chair. Lakers will be a play in.
Last time we were 4th seed, there is zero percent chance that we can be 4th or better this season.i will happy if we don't fall into playin. Every game we need to score 175 to have any chance of winning
La Need kuminga
There's Soo much "next year "optionality" thought process and mentality going on to be a REAL Championship title contender. I don't want anyone losing their jobs but honestly Rob hasn't gotten any better at being GM. He's the guy who every other year drafts a Quarterback to prolong and have a excuse why the roster isn't Championship ready. And JJ isn't a rookie coach but still lacks things that come with experience but he needs to keep emotion and pride to the side. Play guys like Vando do what gives team best chance to win. He's the guy that will do anything to win only if it'z from his idea or done his way 😌😒😏😔
Id say the Lakers have a great chance at keeping their 1-4 pick…this summer reminds me of Mosgov Deng signing. The same philosophy…mamu grimes are good but not starters. Mamu started most his game at 5. Grimes couldn't start in east philly, but going to start in west Lakers. Unless complete turn around Luka gone
3 things to look for, for success… 1) Luka comes into this season next level muscular definition and shape
2) AR at least 'touches' being a legit #2 and 3) Kess can actually stretch out to the 3-pt line
The lakers aren't winning the championship without labron. And the lakers will be the Cowboys of the NBA. Labron will go deeper into the playoffs then Luka and Reeves put together. I cant wait to laugh my ass off.
This team stinks. They’ll have good stretch’s cuz they’ll score 120 but then they’ll have stretches when they give up 140. First round exit second at best.
Is Allie staying with Spectrum or following LeBron to next team?
It is all about Carr and Thiero. I don't know if they'll be great, but they could bring something truly important to the team if they have limited downside. Carr gives you shooting, athleticism and has a polished play style that's very enticing. Thiero is explosive, strong, and will be a good defender and (hopefully) a rebounder. If they develop into rotation players this year, they are a dangerous playoff team, and only a couple of adjustments away next year.
