Jason Timpf reacts to LeBron James and the Los Angeles Lakers’ 4th quarter collapse in their 118-122 overtime loss to Jayson Tatum and the Boston Celtics. Jason highlights how the Lakers depth issues are affecting LeBron and Anthony Davis as well as the regression of Russell Westbrook’s play. He later discusses Joel Embiid and the 76ers’ dominant 123-103 win over the Sacramento Kings.

The issue is LeBron and AD have to do everything for the team both on offence and defence, it's simply unsustainable
Completely agree- Russ has been playing better, but makes loud mistakes. He shouldn’t be allowed to have jump shots, especially early in the shot clock.
Jason 'aggregate' timpf
Hang on you said “Jayson Tatum and Jaylen Brown are probably the best duo right now in the nba”…. There’s no thinking. Tatum and brown are by far the best duo in the nba and it’s not close. I’m glad brown is getting some love because he’s been severely underrated for a while and everything I used to talk about him as a top 20 player people laughed at me that’s really what he is. Any given night those 2 plays could combine for an easy 70 points which is ridiculous when you factor in those around them such as grant Williams & Malcom B that can shoot very efficient and get 20 themselves
Trading Russ for Turner and buddy would be number 1 seed in the west
I have been saying this about Russ the whole time he is shooting 40% fg he has a high turnover rate he plays no defence and he is 236 in plus minus probably much worse than that now… He is a liability and takes away all your depth.. I cant believe people have been fooled by Russ
Doug you’re like the smartest NBA analyst I’ve ever come across. The depth of your knowledge is second to none how do we get you commentating games?
Big fan of the show and the host but come on now. We are going to ignore the whooping GSW got last night?
Don’t Jeannie and Rob have analyst that can decipher these numbers as well? Surely they can see this Russ thing is a problem
Hmmm I bet they trade Russ and still don't do shit.
I'll hear your argument for the Warriors but you smoking crack if you really think the Clippers are actually better than the Pels..
Just love the Laker misery. As a Waaruors and Kings fan, it's just fun to see the Lakers losing heartbreaking games.
I am glad you game the Kings a little coverage. They don't play enough defense, but are a little better than they were at the start of the season. In the game against Philly, they were badly hurt by overzealous officiating. They didn't get calls and the volume of calls disrupted their momentum.
if Vogel have this roster and Russ is gone. #1 seed.
Why I feel Russ is to blame again for this Lakers choked game again. Poor Russ…
Are you still in Tucson? If so, we should hang out.
Up 13 and Lebron keeps jacking up 3s instead of posting up himself and taking good shots or force feeding AD! AD concedes a 3 and Lebron doesn’t guard Smart who hit a 3! 3 top 75 players who don’t know how to close out a close game ‼️
There gas in the 4th & can’t close bron or Ad … bron can’t find a bucket last 3 mins of games
I think you’re going a little too hard on Joe this time around I usually agree with you I think Joe typically lays off defense a bit too much but he has been extremely impactful this season and it’s not just the scoring, give him credit for the playmaking at least if you aren’t satisfied with the defensive presence. Love the show though bro great basketball talk
Bron bron can take step back 30 footers all game brick all the threes he want have just the same amount of turnovers as russ take more shots than Ad play no d dont run back on d don't switch and get cooked by tatum oh but lets blame Westbrook that ish so lame its the easy thing to do…um um um f it lets jus blame russ lol thats how it be ish corny
😂😂 Just last week you said they should keep Russ 😂😂😂😂
This 🤡 don't know 🏀 NO WAY this dude watching that game & blamed Russ who's offensive pace & defense lead that comeback
Make a video on what u think the bulls should do
is there a hoops tonight only channel? all the rest of the volume's content has been trash as of late, but i like this show.
You’re speaking to me brother. Good stuff!
If you think, LeCHOKE is the goat, you are nothing but a fangirl Simp
This is such an incredible setup and routine for a show and the depth level is incredible.
The Lakers tired????
I expected the Celtics to be tired because this was a back to back game for them. Whereas the Lakers rested the previous nite.
STOP BAILING OUT LEBRON!! This is getting ridiculous. How are you pairing Lebrons mistakes with AD??? That Marcus Smart play was on Lebron
Happy happy Wedseday! Love the consistent content
Westbrick is delusional and it’s been this way his whole career. Irrationally confident. His decision making late in games is why his teams NEVER reached the ultimate goal in OKC.
Rob Pelinka is goat gm
Tatum needs to shoot more from mid range to really open up his already elite scoring. He would’ve done much better against GS and the Clips if he took more mid ranges. It’s why Jaylen Brown is capable of doing well against GS.
A Westbrick jump shot should be considered a turnover. Damn the box score.
This Is Why Draymond Doesn’t Come On This Sorry Ass Podcast Anymore 😂 This Clown Knows NOTHING About Basketball
Do the Lakers have cap space or do they need to waiver or trade someone to pickup Miles Bridges?
The Miami Heat are like cream raising slowly to the top.
Philly need to start P Reed.
*The Maverick got out rebound, low assist and Cavaliers feasted inside their paint
My thing is… why is Anthony Davis completely gassed by the end of games like this??? He's 29 years old.. not pushing 40 like LeBron 🤦♂
This is exactly what needs to be said, Russ is very inconsistent and his positives are over shadowing the true reality of poor performance
The LBJ and AD buck dancing is crazy. LBJ and Russ took bad shots down the stretch.
Can we stop w the lakers , feel like all we hear about is them , the analysis are great but competitive Bc they still suck
LeBron taking jump shots from 31 feet didn't help.
