I doubt the Suns will be thinking at all tonight about AD saying a few weeks back they both teams “know” the Lakers would have beat them in the playoffs if he was healthy. Phoenix will probably get caught slipping.
 
The Lakers roster should be even more hilarious next season, good luck to the new coach as well :lol: :pimp:

They have a ton of ancillary issues but they gotta figure out why Bron and AD not scheme proof. 55 games of Bron avg 30 and 40 games froM AD is rough, but that should be enough to make the play in and that’s like in the worstttt case scenarios

Bron not playing more than 60 games, and AD is showing you he’s not a floor raiser. If they really need to hit home runs all over the margins just to be a play in team then they’re beyond screwed.

Is it fair to say this is the most Playmaking Lebron has ever had around him??

Russ, THT, AD, Malik, Nunn are all above average in creating their own shots and collapsing defenses
 
Acquiring Westbrook never made any sense but on top of that the Lakers roster was already pretty bad but that narrative has been beaten to death this season. Can’t believe they won’t make the play in. Silver kept it around as a safety net for Bron and he still couldn’t get in.

Maybe you are new to the NBA. But FYI, Kendrick Nunn has been out all year

We made the call to sit Dejountae to get us in the play in. Klay and Dray gon sit out or take it easy on us, we gon beat the Thunder, and Jokic gon chill on the last game.

Meanwhile, the Spurs gotta play the Wolves, Nuggets, Warriors and Mavs. If they don't lose those 4, us at Klutch will have to talk to the league about this.
 


Magic Johnson was the worst team president in the league but now he has all the answers now that he's not in that position anymore. Interesting. He literally tried to run it in NBA franchise as a part-time job

Magic Johnson is the guy who signed Timofey Mozgov, Luol Deng, traded Zubac for Mike Mascala and hired Luke Walton as coach.

The only thing is interview proves is that Magic Johnson has no grasp of the salary cap or the CBA

it was all the hype. Lebron believe that the triple-doubling machine like Rust can actually help to get him more rings. I said it a million times that a player like Rust conditioned the way he is and become is difficult to integrate to a team based game. I don't believe that original Lakers roster was that bad. they were decent but the chemistry was horrible and Rust was just lost there in the rotation. now the lost of trust of the entire squad without a leader made it even worse than it is. obviously, the team don't give a damn about winning, including Lebron. they don't have anybody to carry them and even Lebron needs a wheelchair to do it for him. the Rust trade definitely made a negative impact to the entire Lakers squad. I'd say it's part Rust's fault and part the ones responsible for bringing him on board. it wasn't this bad compared to that super squad they formed with Nash and DH.

He also believed we could straight up swap Kuzma for Buddy.

from what I remembered, Magic wasn't fully committed as Lakers President but did it as a favor for the organization. as bad as he may acted like an absentee president, he wasn't responsible for this worst Lakers mess that is now. that is Pelinka and LeGM's doing. Pelinka and Lebron turned an iconic franchise into a laughing stock of the league that other teams love to embarrass.

I am as critical of Rob Pelinka as anyone but the franchise was a laughing stock long before Rob and LeBron ever got here and that is in large part due to the terrible moves that Magic Johnson made.

Heck, at least Rob and LeBron built a championship roster. Magic made some of the worst decisions in history now he's saying he's got all the answers on the TV set. He had his chance to run the team and failed miserably.

Don't understand what Magic's angle is here. What is he gain from trashing the organization and airing out their dirty laundry?
