From an old Bron to a new Don, Luka Brasci calls the shots now: Your GOAT franchise Boss Angeles Lakers 2024-25 regular season Thread

[Karume]

Uh! It’s ya OG Karume, gotta say it with the flow,
Talkin’ ‘bout them Laker fans, y’all ain’t ready for the show,
Thinking every season ‘bout to be a ring parade,
But sometimes y’all be lookin’ like you need some aid.

Gold and purple everywhere, y’all decked out in the gear,
But the bravado turns to quiet when the end is near,
"Next year, we got this," is the chant every time,
Dreams of championships, but y'all stuck in your prime.

Eyes on the scoreboard, but it’s not a pretty view,
Hopes high as the sky, but wins? Just a few,
Still, you rep your team, loyalty ain’t thin,
Even if the playoffs, y’all just can’t win.

But hey, it’s all love, from Iowa to LA,
We rivals on the court, but we cool at the end of the day,
So keep your heads high, fans, keep filling those seats,
And maybe one day, y’all escape them defeats.

That’s Karume, spittin’ truth with a smirk,
Respect to all, we all just here to work,
So wave your flags, keep cheering, stay loud,
From the 319, much love to the crowd!

nikkas be havin too much time on their hands

Trash ass excuse. Dlo has to share mins because he played like trash. Played awful defense, took bad shots and made lazy passes.

Nobody cares about what he did if he doesn’t do it when it counts.

I don’t even blame Ham for benching him. He was useless out there.

lol about “killing his rhythm”

Even then, though, the point of picking up Vincent was so that he was insurance for if/when Russell shrinks in the playoffs. The thinking was that Vincent would show up in the postseason.

Now that may or may not still be true, but Gabe hasn’t been healthy all year, so we still don’t know.

But the point is he was always supposed to share PG duties with him.

If Russell can’t handle another guard playing time, then this nikka needs to go. We were all saying Murray was the better choice anyway, and a lot of these ninjas was in here campaigning for him and shytting on Murray.

So this is the bed they chose, sleep in the muffukka.

Weird season. So-so start but that dec-jan period nearly tanked the season then the solid feb-april period excluding the bad losses.

What I've found is that LeBron doesn't have wherewithal/energy/ to overcome/fight bad coaching.

 

[Unbothered]

Today's a big game for us.

It's gonna be a playoff atmosphere in New Orleans.

This is our “down 3-2/game 6” moment of the year.

This is a MUST-WIN game because if we don't and the Kings and Warriors win today we'll drop from 8th to 10th place with no room for error to lose that game on Wednesday.

We'll play on Tuesday if we win today .

this is a game where our 2 superstars have to take over and win us the game.

nah this needs to be an all around team win.. we gotta get Reaves and DLO going, along with hopefully seeing some offensive life from Gabe

Lakers desperately need all 3 to elevate their games the next few months and it starts today. Lakers really do seem to go with what their 3rd star produces recently… if DLO is playing great, Lakers win. If he’s terrible Lakers lose

Yup, we're gonna need the supporting cast to play their best games.

Rui, Reeves, Dlo, etc all gotta show up today.

 

[dubsmith_nz]

Huge game today, let's hope we get some big performances all round.

 

[Unbothered]

We've had a good start so far with a lot of urgency being shown.

 

[HollywoodP]

loving our defense so far.
