2:11 Well the Lakers fan base better get ready to wait awhile because they’re not seeing the finals no time soon lol. Rob Pelinka has lost his touch as a GM who can build a championship winning roster…😂😂😂

Getting rid of Labron would be a good start for the Lakers to improve their roster

Darryn Peterson is possibly the best prospect I’ve seen in college in recent memory. He has a pro game, scores in minimal dribbles, can score at all 3 levels, he look on another level from AJ when they played

So it was lebron fault that Luka was out of shape and don’t defend

The Lakers’s “championship or bust” method of building a team isn’t likely to end well in the new cap reality. I hope we don’t end up like Milwaukee with Luka running the team.

Joe is a clown. Does he even watch games or does he just watch a highlight or two then open his pie-hole? Pressure’s not on Anthony Edwards. He still hasn’t had anywhere the team talent of SGA, Luka or Wemby. And he was injured half of last season. AE and Minn could take a major step forward but they need another consistent SHOOTER/DEFENDER at wing. Luka’s not otherworldly. He’s a gifted shooter outside of the 4thQ. But he has two massive flaws- Defense and Availability. And he’s not getting younger. How many teams have been rebuilt to “helop” Luka? He’s reminding me of Lebron.
I don’t expect Luka to ever win a ring unless he takes a backseat and gets the ball out of his hands. Jalen Brunson has proven himself to be BETTER than Luka in every way that matters. Wemby is easily the most overrated, over-hyped player in a loooong time. I’m still not sure he’s the best player on his TEAM cuz Castle and Harper kept them afloat when it mattered.

I can’t go there with Perk on the Kobe Bryant. We gotta stop using Bean or MJ. ESPECIALLY if the mentality is not there.

Well the wizards needs a franchise point guard we don’t need AJ Dybantsa because we have Bilal Coulibaly & Kyshawn George at the 3 position we don’t need another forward i like Darryn Peterson more

Jalen Brunson is great. He is small and plays little to no defense. If the Lakers can get Luka some athletic defenders they could easily be in championship contention for the next few years.
