I love having JJ on the show. I’m liked Max too but SAS knows he can’t out basketball talk a recent vet with a good basketball IQ. If you notice he agrees with JJ way more than a “Let me tell you why you’re wrong and you don’t know basketball.”

I think the Lakers over reacted to losing in the first round. If they had their same squd you add Buddy Hill Carmelo Monk Dwight you don’t add Russ this team would be a real threat in the west. If they were healthy they probably would have won it all last year. Remember they didn’t get enough time to rest from winning it in 2020. Everyone forgets that.

I DON’T even watch the NBA anymore! I only know a few players now, old SCHOOL, however, Michael JORDAN is the GOAT!!! LEBRON IS GOOD BUT NOT BETTER! I BELIEVE ALL SPORTS ARE suffering! It’s hard to PLAY AND FOCUS IN A PANDEMIC WORLD!! I DON’T WANT TO HEAR, WELL ALL THE MONEY LEBRON JAMES makes he SHOULD take responsibility! WHY? MENTAL FATIGUE IS UPON THE WORLD! THE FIGHT TO REACH THE TOP IS HARD WHEN YOU ARE IN SAFETY MODE WITH THIS PANDEMIC AND WORRIED ABOUT PROTECTING YOUR FAMILY AND KEEPING THEM SAFE! THIS IS THE REASON I FEEL THE GOVERNMENT OR THE OWNERS OF ALL SPORTS TEAMS SHOULD HAVE NOT RESUMED PLAYING JUST TO JUMP START THE ECONOMY! I HAVE WATCHED RUSSEL WESTBROOK PLAY HE IS GOOD, HE IS BEING TESTED BUT GIVE HIM TIME! DON’T BLAME LACK OF EFFORT ON THE PLAYERS OF FOOTBALL, TENNIS, NBA ETC. BLAME THE PANDEMIC!!!✊????????????????

Who actually believes this? OF COURSE THEY HAVENT BEEN THE SAME ! THEY HAVE A TOTALLY DIFFERENT TEAM !!!! DUH !!!! Lebron is putting up MVP numbers, AD is injured as usual and Lebron has to overwork with a bunch of undrafted scrubs. ITS BEEN THE SAME NARRATIVE.

Stephen A was right because they were champions in 2020 they had to gave away one of their players from their 2020 roster because they had a lot of younger guys and now in 2022 their now an old team they would’ve kept those 2020 players last season to repeat and would’ve stayed healthy as well last year after that disappointing first round exit with AD being injured.

The bubble was just a pickup tournament. Many players weren’t at their best ant weren’t there mentally. We can count it as .5 title.

What do you expect for a team who broke up their championship roster after winning it all? ????♂
Lakers did this to themselves, and they thought adding “sexy names” will hide those bad decisions.
