TBH it was multiple things and they set themselves up for failure... They didn't get a centre that could rebound, this also would've helped a.d with resting between defending joker, and a.d can play the 4 with more energy. Also they kept dlo and d ham. Dlo is a good regular season player, we all knew dlo was going to be inconsistent come playoffs, AND THEY SAW WHAT DLO COULD DO COME PLAYOFFS VS NUGGETS LAST SEASON, and he didn't fail to deliver the same this season(I'm not even hating on the guy thats just the type of player he is, I want him to do well where ever he goes but lakers tryna win a chip). D ham was also not good enough, didn't make any noticeable impact/changes on any of the playoff games(dlo should not have been the 3rd option for denver series- reeves or rui shouldve, they gave rui too few shots) also d ham doesnt show much emotion or impact the players or call plays when needed most. Also as head coach its his responsibility to realise what trades are needed and he failed to get a rebounding centre and trade dlo for a consistent playoff producer, finally a coach is just as much to blame for losing a 20 point lead as the players are. Injuries didnt help either tho, as c wood and vando wouldve been nice to have vs nuggets)

These false narratives gotta die. If Rob is to blame why havent the other franchises picked up EITHER player. Its because theyre old. We won in 2020, IMPROVED our roster in 2021 but lost because Bron got hurt in the reg season and AD got hurt in the playoffs. KCP, Kuz, and Caruso played bad in that suns series. THEN eveyrone panicked INCLUDING the fans and we traded for Russ. This was co-signed by Bron. That trade killed us. The rest is history and it has nothing to do with aging bigs that we let go. The reason Rob didnt get bigs is because there werent AFFORDABLE bigs in the market.

This is also a perfect illustration of how flawed the concept is of the post-game press conference. Players want to talk, they want to open up, but you just can't expect any player to walk away from a tough loss and have any type of complex, interesting thoughts mere moments after it ends. And then as the cherry on top, they have to answer the same basic question, over and over again, from dozens of reporters. I'm not criticizing the reporters, of course - they're just doing their job. But I really wish there was a better system and these types of interviews really do show that players want to open up and have conversations, but it needs to be done in the right way, and that mutual trust is so important.

It's not a hard puzzle to solve beating the Nuggets. Lakers literally did it 4 years ago. The Twolves are literally doing it the exact same way. MULTIPLE big body rim protectors to bump with Joker all game long to exhaust him mentally and physically paired with a couple elite wing defenders. Your superstars will take care of the offense after that. I wish we could stop wondering how to beat the Nugs when the recipe is already there.

I love this podcast straight x’s & O’s

Lakers prayed for misses from Denver's shooting. Timberwolves seem to actually contest and alter shots. Only AD did that for us this year. The best moves we can make have already begun. Getting rid of Darvin Ham, who was obsessed with small ball, even when we'd have the size advantage. He seemed to believe that going small with AD at Center essentially was the best option in the close to the wire games. Also, excessive rotations. Our starting 5 only being finalized a few months before an NBA playoffs is malpractice. We looked silly, and it really shouldn't have been a question about who would start coming into this season. I honestly can't blame Rui, Austin, or Dlo. Imagine coming into camp thinking you've earned your spot after going to the WCF last year, running it back, only for you to have to compete for minutes with new talent. I thought i was going nuts when i saw Gabe Vincent getting more minutes than Jackson Hayes, who had some key games in the regular season cause of his size and energy. With a big like Jokic and an athletic wing in Gordon, we could have utilized size and energy. The top of the West consists of actual teams while we let Ham play like an exhibition game on mid 2000's 2k.

JJ can ask the actual questions we want when it isn't in person 🤣

Cam was unreliable bcuz he always decides to “take matters into his own hands” to prove he deserves a higher role. It was annoying then Ham allowed him to do that. It was a terrible team. Vando and woods were hurt. We were too small for the nuggets with no chemistry and they expect Bron and AD to win a chip with a terrible team. DLo is an allstar on his best nights but not a superstar and most nights he’s subpar. Reeves is consistent back up at best. Lakers was a freak show but claim Bron. I get tired of the haters. Lebron is 39 so yea he can’t do what he did before but to still make the playoffs and if he had a better cohesive team he for sure would have a chance at the chip. What makes Denver such a good team is the team chemistry and no one is playing outside their limits and roles. Lakers had no identity bcuz no one wanted to stay in the place or respect others game and the coaching was terrible.

Never in all of life would the Timberwolves hold LeBron to 8 points in a playoff game in LA. It’s really a match up problem. OKC isn’t as big as Minn and they’ve been abusing the Nuggets all season as well.

Shout-out to JJ to bringing up this important situation. Great point, you guys don't focus on discourse, which is why I love this show. But this was something that needed to be said and Bron's reaction to being asked about the series (albeit they likely discussed it would come up), it was phenomenal to see LeBron James vulnerable in this state and while everyone gives him so much criticism, at 39 this was Jordan's transition into management with the wizard where 20 pts a game was praised. Man idc what they say about who was greatest at the peak of their powers, longevity and expectation of THIS magnitude will never again be understood the same. Thank you for your transparency gentlemen 🙏🏾💯

What Lebron said at the end there I think is the main factor -- they're so COEHSIVE. Denver's starting five is this perfect combination of MVP talent upfront with the highest caliber role players imaginable. Aaron Gordon was the Magic's #1 option for a long time. MPJ would be given a lot more berth outside Denver. KCP was a key cog in the Lakers' 2020 run. It makes them relaxed, and there's not a lot of ego and hero ball on the court. They just kept coming at the Lakers and didn't seem fazed because they just play the right way. As a Laker's fan, I couldn't help but throw up my hands and respect it.

The truth about the Lakers is they don’t have personal to bother Denver. It’s a clear difference in trapping Jamal when you have the defensive personal to pull it off, and length everywhere on the floor. Lakers did not have that.

@@fangiscool1 who are you talking to? Jamal was a Lottery pick and is a max contract player... Yeah he hasn't had the best seasons but the West is deep with great guards... There is one thing that some of those great guards don't have and that's a Ring. And you're also dumb because LeBron said last season that the Nuggets team was the best he's played in the last 4 years so think of it how you want... But he's not making excuses... Oh and I'm not a Lebron Fan.

Reddick is your coach, he knows the game of basketball better than any of the other candidates and he played 15 years in the league; he is a long term coach that will not cost you initially, he's a players coach and will manage the locker room along with LeBron and AD's input. We must get two real bigs next to AD. (ie 2020 chip) we need a six man (Bobby Portes, Dramond, for additional support etc.) We need a two way guard to contend with Murry and Anthony Edwards..... Demar/Caruso/Donovan/Keli Ubrea/Marcus Smart/JaMonte Murray/ Brogden etc. We have more than enough assets and picks to make this happen. Doc Rivers, Ty Lue, Chauncy Billups, etc none of which had ever coached prior to there position. There is enough assets, picks and money to make it happen.

Without Jamal they be losing all the time dude carried them

These feel like job interviews now, given the Lakers coaching developments🤣🤣

Fuck the bullshit when people say "NO EXCUSES" !! Bottom line is the LAKERS won GAME 4, they were winning GAME 5, until ANTHONY (fragile) DAVIS injured his shoulder early in that 3rd Quarter, and he didn't play hard through out 0 the rest of that game because of that injury. And that's the main reason why the LAKERS lost period. And to top it off, they only lost by 2 PONITS. :😮 LEBRON had (30 Pts) . (11 Ast) and (9 Rebs). The 39 year OLD MAN put a hell of an effort in that game, and he deserves no blame for that loss period. ANTHONY DAVIS is in his full young PRIME, so he's the blame for the fail
