Why Lakers' front office is to blame for Nuggets mismatch, Tyron Smith-Cowboys era done? | THE HERD

- The Los Angeles Lakers, once again, fell short to the Denver Nuggets 124-114 on the night of LeBron James reaching the 40,000-point milestone. Many fans blame coaching, roster play and a majority of other reasons for the purple and gold coming up short to the Nuggets but Colin Cowherd dives into the main reason: the front office. Meanwhile, NFL free agency is approaching quickly and one key offensive lineman may not return to his current team: Tyron Smith. While the Dallas Cowboys are reportedly not guaranteeing an extension for Dak Prescott, there is a chance the QB's top lineman may be on the exit. Colin reacts to the report, then explains why America's Team not only wasted Smith's career but discusses what this means for Dak.

Do yall remember when everyone was gassing up the Lakers off-season acquisitions lmfao 🤣
No tbh
No tell me more about
Casuals. They looked good on paper (if the entire roster was in their prime)
I mean Gabe Vincent and Vando have been injured all season, so take this L casual MF-er!
Do you remember we had this exact convo last year and they made the WCF?
10 point win ain’t narrow
Colin, the Lakers haven't beaten the Nuggets either.
It’s like the Lakers team is built to beat the Warriors not the Nuggets.
That’s a very low bar to set. A lot of teams are built to beat the Warriors.
That's general manager fault, when Lakers beat the nugget in the bubble and they had two other big men. McGee and Howard why didn't they get cousins
Losing 8 games in a row doesn't matter how close the games are 😂
Yeah they own the lakers rn, also the disrespect to d lo has to stop
Hey!!! Lakers are 3-0 against the Nuggets in moral victories. Those matter😅
It is what it is. The stacking method is not working as expected. You need to build team chemistry. Every time Lebron wins it’s all him and no one else helped. When Lebron loses he doesn’t have enough help.
To be fair, the Lions would not have won any playoff games had the refs correctly called PI and the Buccs were very mid.
Jokic heavily outplays AD every single time
Lakers should have kept Dwight these last few years, he won’t stop Jokic but wouldn’t get pushed around as easily
Facts. Im a lifelong nugget fan and Dwight is the ONLY player that made Jokic do un-Jokic-like things. Doesn’t mean Jokic did bad but he certainly looked tired and frustrated in that match up.
Dwight is done and Jokic is a MVP player and probably the best player in the NBA, which he was not in the Bubble...he's been out the NBA for more than a season for a reason (or several). More importantly, Denver starting 5 now is better, in their prime and experienced...Since 2020, the Lakers have blown up that team and coaching staff several times...
@@lumanate1493 Yeah, that was 3-4 years ago. Jokic is in better condition these days and a different player than 3 years ago.
@@jaybird8192 well all we can talk about is 3-4 years ago cause the two haven’t really had a match up within the same contexts since then
Nuggets ain’t trying. They will sweep the lakers on the playoffs again
You don't believe that
@@morrismims5327neega, they beat them 7 in a row, what’s not to believe?
@@morrismims5327They may not sweep them. But the Lakers have absolute a 0% chance of winning the series. They literally have no path possible to win a series against tgem
J Mac and Colin need to mud wrestle
LeBron is the Lakers’s front office
This lmao! It is amazing how the media will do anything to not criticize Bron. I love Bron but this whole “its never his fault” narrative gets old.
I don't blame the Lakers front office, for not having 4 elite players in their prime
Aaron Gordon is no "elite player". He's a bigger Austin Reeves, better on defense, lesser on offense
How many teams EVER have 4 "elite" players in their prime? The Nuggets don't
They have maybe the best player in the game, and a guy who can score 25 a night, plus two 15-17 PPG scores. That's enough.
This is coming from a laker fan, the media will protect Lebron legacy
🤓🤓
who are the lakers signing as the third offensive option?
In the last 8 games between the Nuggets and Lakers. Nuggets are 8-0, Lakers are in the same class as the Warriors, Suns and Clippers against the Nuggets.
So we are counting close losses as wins 🤣🤣🤣
No team in the nba matches well with the nuggets dont make this a laker thing jok and murry to man ge game is a nightmare
MIL handled them last time they played.
@@jasonjanisewski78 and Denver handled them the time before that
@@jasonjanisewski78 nuggets have beat the bucks alot lately can't base this off one game
Philly do. Because Embiid when he do plays, be dropping like 35 or 40 on Jokic. Embiid consistently giving Jokic 30. And he more physically built than AD. Lakers need a Dwight Howard
@@sora__kairi3726 but yet he ducks jok in Denver I like embid he never delivers in the post season like jok has maybe it's the wear tear on embid who has to carry the 6ers
So in other words Collin says Lebron needs a super team in order to win.
And that it’s the front offices fault not his even though HE IS the lakers front office. Don’t tell me he doesn’t have final say on every personnel decision in that organization lol!
Why with lebron teams is always the front office the coach the players the gm etc……
You ever watch bron play?
@@danielventura8118bron is great. But whenever he loses it can’t be everyone else’s fault. Especially considering he basically is the de facto coach and GM.
In the seventies
Colin had
a black and white tv 😵💫
Considering Gordon and Porter as “elite players” is wild
We can say they are atleast top 15 in their position on the league, so yeah
They traded their picks and prospects for AD and a bunch of duct tape after that. That was for Bron. He made his bed.
Even now Cowboys fans still don't know just for much we've wasted in Dak's career. It's a damn shame. A very shameful waste of talent
Yeah, Dak is Kirk cousins and doesn’t have a next level to his game. He gets exposed every time he plays a good team.
Where Dwight when you need em
Darvin Ham is 2 blame.
More excuses for LeBalco before playoffs start…. Nice
What needs to be addressed with the Lakers is why is the offense the last 3 minutes is running through Reeves and Hachimura? When is Lebron and AD going to say hey this is on us now give me the ball let me run the offense, AD you get down there and get us a bucket it's on you and me. If you watch the game AD stood around waiting for Reeves to find him and get him a shot, Lebron let Reeves do his thing and that's not a winning formula. With a game this close under 3 minutes your super stars need to take you home not your role players. This happens in way too many game AD just gets lost in the final minutes of a close game.
Im a lifelong Nuggets fan but I think Boston is definitely #1 this year. Nuggets lost brown which is extremely important because nuggets never have had a deep bench. Boston on the other hand has like 5 solid bench contributors. They worry me.
Boston is more talented but Denver has much better chemistry and a more reliable half court offense at crunch time. Tatum and Brown have to prove themselves when the games slows down and taking the right shot.
The margin of error for Denver is a bit smaller but I think the starting 5, more confident now can overcome the weaker bench this yr. This season for Denver was about finding out who are your 6th. 7th and 8th player for which slowly it's starting to take shape.
Should be a great series if both make it to the finals
@@gusjoe2517 zero of what you said was wrong. I think the x factor is definitely if tatum and brown can figure out how to stay healthy and actually play better in the playoffs. Because last year tatum hurt himself and brown forgot apparently how to play basketball lol! Definitely an intriguing match up especially considering that both have been so dominant at home.
The D lo disrespect has to stop, he’s the factor
"If Lebron had better players they'd win."
Gee thanks for that excellent insight Colin.
Jokic is so talented that he dominates in a sport that he actually doesn't care much for.
Nothing to do with the Lakers front office, unless you want to blame them for not drafting Jokic, imo at least
Aaron Gordon is an elite player?! 😂
MPJ isnt close to his prime XD
I thought the Lakers had the best off season? rofl
How many all stars do the Nuggets have again? Your company has had an ignorant take on the Nuggets franchise for years. Even casual fans could see the superior talent yet they received no recognition. Jokić is transcendent and still gets begrudgingly praised. No wonder he won’t give your company the time of day… Good on him….
Just a FYI Collin, the economy is trash 🗑
Not for rich mfs like Colin
Colin’s lack of basketball knowledge is embarrassing. Mannix just destroyed him on his Holiday take, then he said “Knicks didn’t get another scorer at the deadline” when they got 2, Burks and Bogdanovic. This dude literally pays attention to only the Lakers.
Colin’s lakers takes are always pure Fox entertainment. Thanks guys. You made me laugh again
What part of what said is wrong. Lakers are 0-8 against the Nuggets over the past 2 seasons. That’s a pretty alarming streak for a team that has LeBron and AD.
@@jsilva7005 I didn’t say anything was wrong.
4 elite players with the Nuggets? They will say anything to give Lebron an excuse
IKR, the nuggets 2nd best player is a solid 2nd best but there are better #2 players in the leauge without a doubt same with their 3rd best but I will say their 4th best is an exceptional 4th best, whether you view the 4th best as mpj or ag doesn’t matter
@@MichaelDavis-eg1pp lol every team LeBron has won with has had a 2nd play that was a clear superstar. Outside of Jokic, who is his superstar teammate
@@RushBig0786 I’m not disagreeing with you, I don’t think nuggets have some crazy good 2nd and 3rd option (certainly not at the level that Lebron has had throughout most of his career) but their 4th option is well above avg as far as 4th options go and the combination of that and jokic making them better makes it appear they have 4 elite players, but ya I don’t think I was disagreeing just kinda piggybacking off of what you said
@@MichaelDavis-eg1pp i agree. I think they have a better all around team than most but The Lakers roster isn't terrible. The problem is LeBron is too old to play defense and him being so ball dominant hurts the role players.
@@RushBig0786 ya in fairness to Lebron he is like you said too old but it does always seem like every yr of his career he has some built in excuse narrative. He should just retire
Willie roaf was a player
Trent green wasnt the problem for those kc teams it was their defense.
This is true, D Bowe, Priest Holmes, Tony G, Dante Hall. That was an exciting offense.
4 elite players is bs
The only mismatch is Lebalco James resting on defense
Dink-and-Dak
Yes we get it Colin dak is the worst quarterback in nfl history and there’s never been one worst than him and will never be one worse than him
God forbid this show talks about the actual good teams in the league like the Timberwolves, Thunder, Celtics, Cavs etc. Nope let’s talk about the 9th seed lakers
Dak only got to play with that great o-line his rookie year. After that Fredrick had to retire, Free retired and Tyron started missing multiple games every year
Go look at his offensive line each of his seasons in Dallas. It’s been a top 5 offense libe, despite those changes you mentioned. His o-line may not have been as talented as his rookie yet, but it’s still been better than what most other QBs have.
At least 20 other QBs would choose to have the Cowboys offensive players, instead of the situation currently on their team.
@@jsilva7005OL play is typically bad.
@@jsilva7005The line has been mostly fine with some small peaks and deep valleys (looking at you Chaz Green), but Collin is talking about them as if they were an all time force for multiple seasons, and that's just not the case at all
Lakers won the in game tournament they are champions...........
shocker more lakers talk ..... no celtics talk bc we beat colins beloved warriors
LeBron is washed. Davis and Russell are the reasons why the LAL are competitive
Zack Martin is not better than John Hannah lmao
