As is proven clutch at GSW, twolves, and many other game winning and go ahead shots. Only guy that can beat his man off the dribble and our best FT shooter. Not sure why he wasn’t involved in the last play.
Ok ….. D this George Jefferson gotta go my guy…
lebron is irrelevant now.
Fee-fi-fo-fum, I smell a bunch of shmucks, chumps and bums. The Lakers don’t have any courage like Rin Tin Tin, they’ll soon pile up more losses than wins.
That was Luka's shot and he panicked
Lebooboo biscuits is basura
His dicceaters are going to implode when he's gone 😂
Construction iissues? They were fine before Lebron came back, not a championship team, but a team that competed and played as a team. Lebron is a turnover machine and ego driven stat boy crybaby. He's klling Laker chemistry. You an see it in their faces. Nobody wants to play with hiim anymore.
As Vegas dies on the vine
Ayton is the weak point. It’s like the lakers are literally playing without a starting center. Ayton can’t dunk, can’t make jump shots, can’t make layups, can’t make free throws and looks scared every time the ball is in his hand.
Being 41 years old has zero to do with playing defense. If Lebron was concerned about winning, he would let Luka and Austin be the 2 go to guys. He would concentrate on defense and rebounding. Always making excuses for Lebron. Give it a rest Nick Wright.
Are we going to ignore the fact that Bron missed 18 games and then took weeks to get back into game shape and rhythm? Reaves has missed 26 games. Of course Luka would have a 36-38% usage rate. He’s surrounded by some of the most incompetent role players in the league. Dudes want to talk about why Bron’s usage rate is low when he honestly just hasn’t been good enough this year. Dude is shooting 30%3PT this season for goodness sake.
That’s what Ayton is saying, he isn’t Clint cappella 😂
It's Luka fault top 5 get it done all these excuses
Fire Reddick
Someone needs to be let go and a couple players need to be cut. LIKE RIGHT NOW 👿👿👿👿👿👿👿👿👿👿👿👿👿👿👿👿👿👿👿👿
The team sucks, no defense, no bench, AR and Luka couldn’t catch a COLD 🥶
Lebron passed up shots when plays were drawn up for him so no excuses he should've made the shot
Klutch shill
Historically bad takes of Nick Wright: Lebron is the Goat and Luka is a top 3 player. Luka doesn’t defend and forces a very complicated roster comstruction. In addition he is already deteriorating physically. Its going to be tough to win a championshio with him
Great net rating code for not negative net rating?
A few points here to consider. Rebounding, the Lakers rank 28th in total rebounds per game. Free throw percentage is 25th in the league. Turnovers per game 19th. Assist/Turnover Ratio 23rd. About the rebounding, Lakers allow 15.7 Second Chance Points per game which is 5th worst in the NBA. Simply put if the Lakers could rebound, shoot better at the free throw line to league average, and turned over the ball less they would be a top tier team.
This year lebron is very bad.
Thats why lebron went down and luka up on usage
Can't win with Luka, Luka =empty calorie
How about your boyfriend Leroid taking up 50mil n you talking bout they need more shooting I can't wait til that overrated roided stat padder retire
The lakers were playing very well before lebron came back, and luka ans austin were great. Lebron plays 33 minutes per game and has a NEGATIVE +/-. He is statistically the worst defender on the team and only plays for stats. However, nick and the media will blame everyone but him 😂 when in reality lebron should come off the bench
At least Luka is a better player than Prime LeBron…but yeah they need to hope LeBron goes down with an injury because all his bad habits are rubbing off on Luka.
We’re 12 months away from the “Luka is white harden” take. I can feel it
Nick wrong at it again a fake goat 🗑️🗑️🐔🐔🤡🤡🍼🍼🛒🛒🎪🎪🌭🌭🐜🐜🦗🦗🏈🏈
With all due respect to LeBron's advanced age, because what he's doing at 40+ is incredible, but he's giving a legitimate lack of effort on defense and he has been for a few years now. This doesn't excuse the rest of the team from their own individual woes either. LeBron was once considered an elite perimeter defender in this league. Luka and Austin Reaves respectfully never had that on their resume.
LeBron has to go. The Luka era in LA won't really begin until he's gone. Gotta have a different roster around Luka
“Really good for the league for LeBron to be an owner” ……please god no
Not shocking at all..
People always bring up Lukas offensive numbers as an excuse for his terrible defense. Would his numbers be that good if he played defense like a Shai or even an Anthony Edwards?
The Lakers have one main issue and it’s a huge issue and it’s rebounding but it’s very fixable so the Suns game for example the Lakers are the type of team were even if they won that game it wouldn’t have moved the needle for anybody but since they lost the game, it moves the needle drastically if they simply rebounded better they would’ve very easily won that game and the magic game before it
Lebron is off the ball because he lost all ability to dribble the basketball without losing it out of bounds…
Lebron stopped playing defense 10 years ago
LeBron cannot play off the ball. So he doesn't fit with Luka. He needs to come off the bench.
Is it just me or does Luka look like he’s gaining weight during the season? 🤔 he doesn’t look as skinny as when the season started and doesn’t appear to be getting in better shape as the season progresses
If it was Lebron not taking that shot….. "He's not a killer" "he has no clutch gene" but since it is Luka its just "weird" …. Can't make this up
No matter how good they are, "ball hogs" rarely win chips.
When I watch luka this year it reminds me why Niko traded his a**
JJ don't put ayton on the floor in the last 7 minutes of fourth…. they need his height
The aces? Bro nobody cares. How about the golden knights? Lmao. Ive never seen a white sports fan hate hockey like nick hes such a frail wimp this guy watches tennis ffs
Luka is Plump James Harden, and I am tired of pretending otherwise.
