LeBron, Dwight Howard and AD have been the best versions of themselves – Rachel Nichols | The Jump

Published

on

In her daily monologue, Rachel Nichols lauds the Los Angeles Lakers after back-to-back wins vs. the Denver Nuggets and Utah Jazz, saying Frank Vogel’s team has gotten the best versions of LeBron James, Anthony Davis, Dwight Howard and basically all their players in the 2019-20 NBA season. Nichols also recaps LeBron’s egregious uncalled travel and going on the court without shoes on.

    They always hating on LeBron James
    They should hate on Michael Jordan longtime ago when he had the Flu and cross over
    Russell in the NBA finals
    For the Chicago Bulls winning the championship
    😁Lol

    Nah if Dwight was the best version of himself the Laker would be 22 – 0

      Imagine 2009-2010 Dwight on this squad with the same mentality he has now 😱

      If everyone except AD (because he’s already in his prime) [and obviously kuz] was in their prime this would arguably be one of the best defensive teams in nba history

      If this was 2012 – 2014 lebron and Orlando Dwight the lakers would likely be undefeated or like 21-1

      Brandon Ingram they’d be 22-0 if they utilized him properly. So many times he creates post miss matches and no one finds him

    We haven’t forgot how disrespectful ya’ll talked about the Lakers before opening night

    The best version of Dwight (09) together with AD would’ve held teams to 80 points a game

  12. King D

    It’s easier for Bron to exert more energy on the defensive side when he doesn’t have to carry all/most of the offensive load and play most of the minutes every night. I like to consider the context of a story, not just the peripheral issues.

    It wasn’t disrespectful excuse he had his shoes off, it was disrespectful because he was ON THE COURT mis play! Lol

    True Laker Fan , not a lbj groupie, how they go from cavs, heat, cavs, Lakers , Been Down with Lakers since 1980 , It’s going to be Raptors and Lakers in the NBA Finals, not 76ers or Bucks , Maybe down the Road , Lakers beat 76ers and then the Bucks , then the Celtics Just to Finish it off with lbj retiring, After That A.D. and company win 5 more , A.D retires with 8 chips , 3 with lbj, 5 with out lbj, Hopfully somewhere in that time frame Carmelo Anthony wins a Chip before retiring with Portland, It would be great to see that happen just like when Dirk got his chip with Mavs, Both Great Players, Dirk is the most underrated player of all time , better teamates around Him He would have 5 chips . and 40,000 points if Nash would Have stayed with him is Whole career, Dirk is the man, who beat lbj, D Wade, Bosh, Dirk and Larry Bird would have been great to see them play together also with Hakeem Olajuwon,

    The fact that they didn’t mention Alex “The Bald Eagle” Caruso is absolutely appalling and is grounds for immediate firing. So disrespectful. 😂
