No white man to blame, Stephen A?
Smh
Legs didn't even mention the Nuggets who are shooting the lights out in a complete opposite offensive performance from the Lakers.
You want to be competitive then you need to get rid of rob Lowe.
Frank Vogel wasn't the problem.
Tim looks different. What happened to him? 😂
Im done with espn. THIS ONES FOR TIFFANY.
Exactly that’s the problem they can’t shoot 😢😢 they ain’t going anywhere 😢😢😢😢
Poor Darvin. Dude ain't going to be there when they "turn it around". Better coaches than him have been scapegoated in LA since LeBron came to town. No matter who the coach is, there's no turning this team around, even with a trade
Jeanie Buss and the entire front office needs to go.
Think about all of the players they got rid of who are now studs on their respective teams. Kuzma, Russell, Clarkson, Randle, etc. Each of those players can score 25 a night. Many are shooters. Some can rebound & handle the ball. It’s unbelievable how poor the management of the Lakers is. They could get Turner & Hield from Indiana right now & immediately be much better. Pick up a good perimeter shooter & a solid center. Get rid of a few scrubs and a high draft pick or two. But will they do it? No!
Get KYRIE!!!! I need to get that lakers jersey and he’s a good fit
Nah… we knew what you meant by brothas… that same energy that you lobbied to run off Frank Vogel and now where are you shifting the blame? They are worst than last season but Now the coach isn’t a problem?.. blaming Frank Vogel was an excuse to push for something else
The truth is defense cant contain offence anymore in an ultra soft league except maybe in playoff. Defence also exerts a lot of energy which in turn impact your legs and thus shooting ability (hence poor 3 pts and free throws for some).
LeBron James is not the same man I use to respect. His interview on Kyrie was awful and shameful. Shaq and Barkley was worst but I never respected them anyway eventhough Shaq is a neighbor.
Amen legler
Warrior right there with em 🤣🤣
Tim Utah even better than them and Portland so if I was the Lakers blow it up or keep looking shameful.
His 3pt shooting has been bad. His shooting has been average at worst.
Darvin, run while you still can.
The Lakers front office operates off of friendships because Pelinka got that job because he used to be Kobe's agent. They didn't hire somebody who can actually do the job and do it well
Stephan A. gotta a point, I say somebody get JL7 back into purple and gold
