There are no more all star centers left that would make a impact lol
Miami?
The Lakers' biggest miscalculation was that they weren't able to collect data on Luka's performance in the postseason.
If he hadn't been injured, would they have beaten the Sanders, or would they have suffered a crushing defeat?
The postseason, with its high intensity, revealed which players were effective and which were not, exposing the lack of depth in the roster.
In any case, AR's MAX contract will likely have an impact on the team's roster going forward.
As a Laker fan I agree totally with Richard Jefferson. They created cap space in a bad free agent class selling Luka on great offseason so we shall see what Pelinka going to do
Lakers missing the playoffs. Redick will get fired.
Would love to watch Lebron go to GSW and bully these Laker fans who are running their mouths already Like Fupa Dongitch will ever win a ring in LA.
Luka and Reeves gonna be hurt every season somehow. Especially when needed most .
And Luke kanard is gone
Defense giving up 140 a game lol
Hey ESPN,
How about some objectivity on the panel… 3 former Lebron team mates…
Lebron hasnt left the lakers… The Lakers haven't offered him a deal.
Perk said it, its championship or bust in LA…
The Leflop era was a Lefail….
Thank you LeBron for the championship, for all the things you’ve done for my Lakers. As a Lakers fan I truly thank you and appreciate you. I rooted for you the whole time unlike some Laker Fans, but don’t worry about those idiots who rooted against you.
what is kendrick smoking? 🤣
We have the best backcourt in the league… and fookin nuttin else.
Lakers need to see if Hornets will trade Kon and Miller for Luka. And a pick.
Then also trade for JB for those 4 picks the Celtics want.
Man the host needs to calm down😂
Luka era Bout to be even Weaker than the Lebron era he is lebron 2.0 with no athleticism
I doubt Danny Ainge would let Lakers have Kessler
Get Dave McMinimum off the air
CRAZY HOW 3 FORMER LEBRON TEAMMATES ARE ON THE PANEL. JUST SAYING.
new lakers won’t be even in play in 🤣
Good for the Lakers that Leflop won't be there next season. His Son should be traded too. 😂😂😂
FIRE Pelinka!!!!!!!
2 yr 64 million team option for payton watson (30 mil per year).
2 year 64 million (32 mil per year) team option sign and trade walker kessler (Vando, DK, 1st) (get back 18 million in cap).
Dano (whatever his name is) for 3 yr 40 million not fully guaranteed.
Still have your 15 million exception you can split between 2 decent role players. Still can sign base contracts
Lineup:
Luka, AR, Watson, Dano???, Kessler
Bronny, Carr, Laravia, Adou, Ayton
Hayes
Thats 11 players. Still need help in the back court and a solid starting 4.
Richard Jefferson dressed like a 80s hippie 😂😂😂😂
This year everyone hurt for plsyoffs
Here he comes Knicks!!
Luka will not win a title in the NBA. The wrong GM is running the team and that roster doesn’t have ballers. Austin Is a liability.
Bron left his son 😂
Yall can’t never make me hate perk
The Lakers need to resign The Black Samurai Rui Hachimura 28#. Trade Jared Vanderbilt & DeAndre Ayton. Resign Marcus Smart.
If the Lakers don't get vastly improved this off season. Then GM Rob Pelinka must get fired & Bring Back Mitch Kupchak for Lakers general manager.
Lebron has the NBA in a chokehold right now, what he does next is about to make history, headlines, news and change a lot of how the NBA is structured right now. We are his witness of what he does next 👀💯🏀💪🏿👑🐐‼️‼️
Klutch sports is in shambles lmao, yes the Lakers are moving on from old man LBJ, get over it. They are prioritizing Luka, get over it. Perkins and Jefferson are Klutch /LBJ mouthpieces, LBJ is hurt the Lakers didn’t offer him a contract. ABs wanna keep highlighting bad defense but LBJ doesn’t play defense lmao. Klutch and ESPN is trash.
LeBron James needs to take his talents to a retirement home.
The Lakers could not rebuild and keep LeBron. So the right choice was made to look towards the future.
The best the Lakers can do next season with this roster is Play In Tournament hands down
Finally, the Lakers can win a championship. No one is free riding and stat padding anymore.
ifma star wabt to build a winning team, be like brunson
not too much money to get a very good teammates
Perk right lakers fans hot now bron gone and now what Pelinka going to do smh
Nikola ??
Dear Bronny, it was fun but son ya better learn to bus tables n run dishwashers too. Love you DAD.
"LeBron just left the Los Angeles Lakers", No, The Lakers didnt want him back
PELINKA NEEDS TO BE FIRED TODAY!!!
I don’t understand…wasn’t it reported the pistons low-balled Duren and pissed him off?
Man, luke kennard is also out.
Fatkins said a few months ago that LeBron was washed and he should retire.
Why does ESPN think Perk is a good commentator? He is the one that leaves Luka out of the conversation. As a former Mavs Fan, Kyrie was ghost for the finals, which is the exact reason why Mavs brought him in. It was Luka that had to carry the team when Kyrie wouldn't show up. So many more insightful and well spoken former NBA players than Perkins
