Don’ be a Sabo while chasin’ 4 rings in LA: 2021-22 GOAT franchise Boss Angeles Lakers season thread

[Trojan 24]

I think this added pressure cracks what’s left of AD and he becomes permanently broken. He couldn’t stand the heat when it was low, he might try to pop off on Russ and end up gettin his jaw rocked

Btw I don’t know why anyone wants to blame one person or the other for this debacle. It’s all they fault. Every last one of em.

Jeanie should’ve known better by now and hired a real staff instead of relying on the Rambi and the reanimated cadaver known as Weekend at Phillip Jackson’s. Low budget Rob Lowe being a whole worthless duck between ownership and Klutch that’s only good for a random story about nothing does no favors, and Bron/AD/Klutch very clearly signed off on this shyt. There’s no fukkin way Russ ends up on the Lakers without their approval. Bron being purported as one of, if not the, most intelligent superstar in history should’ve definitely known better. Especially since this is the twilight of his career he’s putting at risk.

shyt happens, they all took a bad gamble and lost. The best we can do now is wait to see if they actually attempt to turn around or get comfortable with Lakers basketball being a comedy show again….

I think AD is enjoying this, truthfully he didn't get the respect he deserved for his Bubble Run. He was our best and most important player no matter what the media and LeGBT runs with, and last year everyone was on his ass

If he is enjoying it I wouldn’t enjoy it too much, it’s hard to differentiate between losers that haven’t done much of anything for GOAT franchise….

As important as AD was Bron was yalls best player during that run. There were times when AD looked uninterested and didn’t show up.

You always need to retain as much players you can from the championship squad

Every chance these laker fans get they blame Lebron but when shyt is popping they be quiet as fukk. Like when he was on that historical tear a few a weeks ago you barely heard a peep outta some of these posters. Shyt go bad you got lames wit no avi crying. Its like yall want something to be wrong just to blame. Yall don't deserve shyt

Spoken exactly like someone who doesn't understand the game of basketball.

Yes because we've done so well these last 4 years when AD isn't on the court

 

[CantStop]

is AD our best player? no. is he our most important player? u can make an argument that he is considering Bron doesn't give a fukk when AD is not playing so by that alone he's extremely important.

I don’t see how anyone watched the bubble, especially the finals and felt AD was MORE important. There can be an argument that he’s just as important, but more? There were times when AD was completely out of it and flat out playing bad. I remember reading post saying he was purposely playing bad so bron can get the finals MVP.


Bron been putting up big numbers so long that people just scoffed at that 29, 11,8 Performance.

won't even ask how

AD and Bron are both indispensable for varying reasons. AD is our threat at the big spot and he’s our best defensive player/anchor and Bron is our best playmaker and overall offensive player. However, given that he’s younger, we really needed AD to rise up and become a true top 5 player. Bron doing what he’s doing in year 19 is both remarkable and will might never be seen again as well as utterly unnecessary and a damn shame considering he’s 37 years old and AD is almost 10 years younger but cannot give the man legit, consistent support.

This shyt is a perfect storm fr. We just gon have to embrace the fukkery…..

They just need the right defensive pieces around them.

they should target Justin Holiday, Torey Craig, Kenrich Williams.

A lineup of the following would be good defensively:


Westbrook
Justin Holiday/Kenrich Williams
Torey Craig
Bron
AD


That team is good enough to come out of the West.

Great post. Yeah this is why the 19/20 team worked so well. Bron was at his zenith in terms of playmaking, and you had AD who was the best defensive player in the league that year, and a great scorer. But that's why I feel so scorned towards AD Dude was legit my favorite player for a time when he was on the Pelicans, then again during the bubble

Yeah, those would be great pickups...but didn't you try to shoot me down when I brought up Williams and Craig

Even Bubble AD didn't show up several times in the Finals.

Bubble AD was probably the best player for most of that run, but Bron was the most important
