Will the Lakers make the playoffs?
ruclips.net/video/-K7fCQlUhj0/видео.html
Nope but if I'm wrong who cares.
@Marcelus Wiley, you can fail and learn from it. If Lebron and the Lakers miss the playoffs it's a failure.
Fatlock is the worst. He was schooled in his stupidity and still maintained it. His only adversity is vegetables.
not with that coach
Whitlocks weakness and adversity is putting down the donut.
darkmanx2g the chicken,ice cream,soda,steaks ect lmaooo 🤣🤣
😂😂😂😂😂😂
darkmanx2g that was a really witty one there....
Facts!! Lol
Facts!!
Notice how the same person who keeps using the "physical gift" argument is the most out of shape person at the table 🤔
😂😂😂😂😂⚰⚱👑
thats why he hates LJ soooooo much, its all the physical, #1 HATER.
Soooo true! And hillarious at that!
Whitlock is right
He might be a bigger man but clear his brain is bigger too
Can’t handle adversity but that’s what he’s been through his whole life...
It's his weakness.... A lot of times he shrinks in the face of adversity. You going to pretend he hasn't??
@@bigballer6666 who hasn't that's life wtf
@@bigballer6666 is ur whiteness ur weakness
@@bigballer6666 3 rings says he can handle it...... being down 3-1 and still win a championship says he can
@LeGoat James he is an idiot that's why he spoke the way he did
Invite Cuttino more often! I love how they put Whitlock in place.
Not one of them caught anything near the semblance of his premise, and not one of them made anything near being an actual point within their forced confines of what they themselves characterized for their callous arguments. You have no idea what your talking about, which makes sense considering the hivemind, mob mentality you’re cheerleading for.
Jason Whitlock is attending the media school of Skip Bayless, I can see it a mile away lol. Skip had unpopular opinions, antagonized, and riled people up. He's doing a good job at it LOL
Magic Johnson said before the start of the season, the goal was to make the playoffs. Stop telling lies smh
Magic Johnson isn’t playing😳 just in case you didn’t know that😒 his job is to say the right thing to get butts in seats🙄 boy you people really know nothing about basketball, the business aspect or players
Tom Spencer you would call a group of teenagers and vets making money you’ll never see FAILURES🤯🤦🏾♂️
Tom Spencer now you’re starting to gain common sense with your latter comment😒 it’s not hard if you think before you type😊because according to your assessment success according to teams is to win the Championship, so basically 98% of the NBA are failures?😳 They could never be failures they are living their dreams and making money doing so. So FAIL is absolutely the most foolish word used.
Magic Johnson said it's a 2 year process
Magic should of been playing maybe they would win
“I don’t think he can comment on anything, except snacks”
- L.Ball, 2017
when kobe didnt make the playoffs the media was on his neck
If Lebron misses the playoffs I promise you they'll make every excuse in the book to make it seem like Lebron did all he could and his team was just bad. I guarantee it.
@@northsidecj the team is bad without him and with him. They have to know what it takes to win. They don't have any winning experience. How can u lead that? Kobe couldn't.
NO they weren't! Yall love rewriting narratives, Kobe missed playoffs his last 3 years and yet where are the videos like this one where ppl are literally arguing something that hasn't even happened yet? Kobe was/is Teflon to the media, He never has his feet put to the fire the way they do LeBron, as a matter of fact on this one show a guy made a catchphrase out of anyone who dare say anything critical of Kobe "That's Blasphemous!" he would scream then run off Kobe's accolades to shut down the topic, so foh with that false narrative.
Sam I Am THANK YOU THEY SAID WELL ITS THE END OF KOBES CAREER YOU SHOULD EXPECT DROP OFF
@@sbwan no Sam ur incorrect. There was people like skip and others that was on Kobe neck for being done and not leading his team to success. It was SAS who was caping for Kobe like shannon and Nick and others do for Lebron because they are stans of those players. The Lakers played well last season and was on the upside better than Sacramento. With a lebron they should be in the playoffs. But the issue is some players don't play well with Lebron and LA playing bad defense does not help them win games.
To say lebron can't handle adversity is nothing but click bait rediculousness, there's nothing that can be said to makes that argument remotely true
He is talking about gow he chokes in big situations on the basketball court..........these fan boys turned it into lebrons swan song.....lmao....who wasnt raised by a single mother?
I'm talking about on the court, it's laughable to say that about lebron on and off the court.... Lebron James is one of the greatest athletes of all time and the best, or second best basketball player of all time. He's greatness personified, which means you love or hate him, its easy to see which side you fall on.
He never said he couldn’t handle adversity. Lol he said he doesn’t handle it as well as others
@@TarvarisJenkins24 no he said it's a weakness totally different
He quit on his teams more than 3 times in the playoffs
LeBron has dealt with adversity his whole life and prospered... Homeless as a kid, the hate he got from going to Miami, every single year in Cleveland with the drama around the team... if that’s not handling with adversity idk what is
Here's what Whitlock is saying in an analogy. You could be a 95% free throw shooter (AKA Lebron handling adversity). And your coach (Whitlock) will still come up to you and say keep practicing your free throws, you can get better. You'll (Wiley and the other 2) say "what do you see how I'm shooting 95%." But there's still 5% that you aren't hitting. Now you could have other weaknesses in your game but the 5% you do miss is still a weakness. In my opinion I think Whitlock's overstating the weakness, but it's still there.
LeBron's life adversity is no different than 99% of African American NBA players both past and present and many players handle adversity better than LeBron when the going gets tough because they don't run and hide, blame teammates, blame the head coach and behind the scenes, assist in trying to get an entire team traded away in order to get one player whose a non championship winning, unknown quantity and because the trade for Anthony Davis went bust that he along with his sports agent Rich Paul and Anthony Davis who have the same sports agent (Paul) he's not even acknowledging that actions trying to trade away all his teammates has significantly in a negative way, caused massive team dysfunction and non trust issues that greatly affects the team's overall performance and that's why the Lakers won't make the playoffs that's going to embarrass LeBron and his basketball legacy as he blames his teammates and coach Walton for his failures.
LeBron did the same blaming and finger pointing in Cleveland, in Miami, back to Cleveland and now in Los Angeles bringing in and creating totally unnecessary drama to the Lakers entire basketball organization.
Got broom swept in 4 straight games by the Warriors (lied about having and playing with a broken hand) and now with the 99.999% chance of not making the playoffs or losing in the first round of the playoffs (back to back failures) and as long as he's a Laker, the adversity and drama will continue because everything is all about him and nobody else..... adversity he can't handle because he's always wanting things his way regardless to who he screws over.
Yea true that. But he was never homeless
Leave the Miami thing out of it, he knew what he was doing and it didn't bother him announcing it WWE style.
@@grizzlyboys3234 makes sense... but then we need more shine and help for the people under 95%, and I think that is the others argument.
I miss this. I liked when they all went at it.
Yup yup
The only adversity Whitlock ever faced was the internal conundrum of whether to supersize his order.
Lol
This is savagery
Fatlock drops his ice cream in the thumbnail.
Møtíf 😂😂😂😂
Still more than Lebron has ever had to deal with.
Man I'm telling you whitlock's sounds like he's jealous of LeBron
He wishes he had 1/10 of the talent lebron had in fact Whitlock is the black skip Bayless.
Bro!That's been his issue for years!Whitlock hates Lebron!PERIOD!He could've been Lebron,but he loved snacks more,so why you hating on him.
Bro I cringed when DJ pulled his championship ring out 😂😂
Exactly!!!
I'm saying lol! Did he even PLAY in the playoffs??
Independent360 hahaha!
DJ played his role and earned that ring...
RugbyReligionAl nah man he had nothing to do with coming back from 3-1. Nice try tho playa
By no means am I a Lebron james stan but he has proven to handle adversity. Perfect example, Lenny Cooke and Lebron James one couldnt handle adversity, the other one could
That’s what I’m talkin about Cutino Mobley he’s solid 💯 they’re tryin so hard to place blame on Lebron he was ballin and had them in 4th place when healthy
LeBum
Yeah you lost the adversity argument Whitlock
This fool Whitlock sounds jealous of LBJ's blessings!!
Bro Whitlock is a huge LeBron hater it’s so obvious
Without a doubt he is jealous, not so much his basketball skills,stuff that most other people really hate you about and I really do mean hating jealous, look what he's doing with his money yeah he has nice cars homes but he does so much for the community, and I'm going to say something that most people don't want to say, he married a black woman.
This crew was fun to watch. Smart, passionate, knowledgeable dudes.
They gonna throw hands with Whitlock if he keeps coming at their baby.
😂
It's part of the show He takes the contrarian point of view. He does well with it, because he believes in what he's saying. He's accurate in saying that LeBron has talent that is generational. Mobley got too emotional. Saying that there's millions with the same talent is him not providing context. He walked it back later by saying other players that are talented enough to get to the NBA, but didn't work for it. Whitlock stated at first, "Lebron type talent, not minimal NBA talent."
I thought they same thing. They all act like Lebron is perfect. Whitlock on point with this one.
You mad
So i guess D Howard didnt have the tools...... man go on with that bs. But adversity really wth.
The most highly scrutinized athlete in history since he was in high school who has done nothing but meet and exceed expectations...yet he cant handle adversity....this from a man who is chronically morbidly obese
E
bahahahahahahaahaha
When they started talking about dog food Jason Whitlock stomach started growling
Lebron was blessed with a gift of basketball . When he’s 70, he won’t be able to dunk, hit jumpers or handle the rock...... yet his brain will be worse than it already is. Common sense can’t be taught, learned or bought.....
@@deanbranch64 who needs a brain when you'll be a billionaire?
The fact that when Jason accurately pointed out lebrons poor defense and they shrugged it off is exactly the issue. People solely look at stats and think they know everything, lebron hasn’t played defense in years but no one EVER talks about it as if it’s not apart of the game. Ridiculous
EXACTLY! Like Whitlock said, they act like Lebron is Jesus! It's honestly sad.
Bro shut up they have two pros in Mobley and Jones who have better bb iq than you
No one ever mention it about James harden either
C W they really do lol, what are you talking about
Sleezy Lebron was top 40 in defensive win shares when he got injured. He’s only played four games since Christmas. Stop lying
STOP YELLING GUYS. YOUR SCARING ME 😭😭
I think this is the first and only time I will ever hear that "being given $90 mil" is a sign of adversity
Whitlock compared LeBron to Donald Trump???? Then he says I never said he didn't work for what he got? Lol
darkmanx2g taking the comments outta context. Dont follow the rabbit down the hole
i mean hes right lebron didnt work to become 6'9 and naturally godly athletic
@@WhyScales23 You sound Stupid AF! So by your idiotic logic if you grow to 6'9 you are "godly athletic" So WTF we not talking about Kwame Brown being "godly athletic"? People like you act like great athletes dont put the work in to be Great like they just fall out of bed into sneakers and dominate Foh!
@@sbwan LOL huh? Kwame Brown wasn't an athletic freak on Lebron's level. LeBron is part of the elite, similar to Usain Bolt. Bolt trained for a few years for 100m, and broke world records in the olympics against guys that have put in more work (10 years+ of training) and have put up elite times. LOL at saying Bolt "outworked" them. You're body is only capable of handling so much training, before it breaks down. And, he bolt didn't have the best coach. Same thing with WRs in the NFL like moss and megatron. There's a lot 6'4+ WRs, but none of them have the acceleration, speed, jumping ability, hand eye coordination and quick fee combo like those two. Other Than NFL QBs and guys that can shoot (curry), you need to be an athletic freak that stands out off ability, not just skill over other athletic freaks.
Ur kind of an idiot aren't u...he was saying how being privileged with natural born talent or being rich puts u ahead of the line for success....you Kno on the field or court when someone is better than u...there's a reason why starters stay in the game most of the time...and y sum guys get away with things on n off the court or field...talent matters...but if u don't sharpen that talent, the guy with minimum talent will exceed u because he put more work and practice into his craft n skill...when someone is better than u physically u can only beat them mentally...
Of course it's a failure. If it was Kobe, Jordan or any other Superstar, we wouldnt be saying otherwise.
braiden45 but where we saying that about Kobe and Jordan in their 17th year?
they never went through what LeBron going through this deep into their careers.
Kobe at 34 was the 7th seed with Pau Gasol, Steve Nash and Dwight Howard. I dont even remember MJ making the playoffs with the Wizards.
No one said this about Kobe when he didn't make the playoffs.. the disrespect is so real
@@josheppssr.8475 Thank you
Thank you Cuttino!!!!
Whitlock got very excited today! LeBron always bring out the best out of him 😁
da11king he used to hate on Kobe too smh
This video sure aged well.
Whitlock missed the point. He sounds like a hater. LeBron could have gone the other way. About Lenny cooke, not sure about his name but he was the No. 1 player in the nation when LeBron started making his rise or something like that? They made documentaries about how blessed w/ talents and destined for greatness he was but yet failed, didn't even get to the league. Lebron asserted himself and put in the work. People forget that LeBron has gotten better at almost everything but free-throws every year he has been in the league. He's not Allen Iverson. He did inherit the God's given abilities, true, but he sharpened them, perfected them to the point that you can't say G.O.A.T of Sports w/o mentioning his name. That's adversity right there because he conquered it all. He's from the ghetto People, put in the work, walk a straight line n puts his namesake on the map and in the history books forever. If you're not self-driven and aware, you don't accomplish those kind of things when you're already born at a disadvantage, destined to be just an other statistic. That goes for every self-made, self-driven, successful and accomplished people that made it out of the hood or difficult situation on the strength of their own inner strength and drive.
Made homie pull out the ring, looking like he been waiting for this moment
I wish Bron would have stayed in Cleveland we wouldn't even be talking about the Lakers
But I'm sure they would find some other reason to criticize Lebron...
All of y'all great points Bron is not making the playoffs to get bounced in the first round he knos he can't win remember he said awhile back he rather sit at home before he loses again
What r u talk about the Lakers was ESPN and FS1 everyday for zo movement.
@@sickle1130 yeah last year let's just say he nevered went to L.A. it would be still Cavs vs gs talk in the finals or could Boston Philadelphia Toronto knock the Cavs off this year an L.A. would still be past tense like the last 5 season's only talk they would get is lavar talking out the side of his head
JAJAJAJAJAJAJAJAJAH CHUMP
the fact him missing 17 games is glossed over as if they aint fall off when he was hurt shows he is held to a different standard.
💯💯
Lebrons entire life was adversity before becoming a pro, then when he became a pro hes become by far the most ridiculously scrutinized player in nba history. And of course let's not forget his two shining moments on the court where he overcame adversity against Boston and especially Golden State
Atleast that's his story right?
Comes with the territory when you call yourself the chosen one
Nonsense.......half of america was raised by single mothers
@@abbott360 And a big portion of them dont even make it to regular lives much less the status that Lebron has. Besides his childhood was a lot worse than that

I'm glad somebody else notice smh dude is trash beings nothing to the debate
Love when there is actually ballers on the panel. They expose the rhetoric of the Whitlock, Bayless and Rob Parker's of the World. We can all read books about how it is to be on the moon! But only an astronaut can tell you the real experience on being there....! Thank you Cateno for allowing us to critique, "the critic"
Facts couldn't say it any better
Wiley with the LBJ Apologist of the Year award after that speech 🤢🤮 at the beginning already setting lbj up for it being ok to not make the playoffs. 2 face apologists make me 🤢. Cuttino is out of his freaking mind to say it’s not a failure to not make the playoffs.
that was by far the most appalling argument. lebron or no lebron if you dont make it to the playoff, you essentially played for nothing.
This the type of trolling bs that makes me not respect Whitlock
Laughter is medicine to the soul😂😂😂😂😂
When DJ pulled out his ring and basically said he had his ring because of LeBron overcoming adversity, everybody knew that the argument was over😂
That was a mic drop but Whitlock is stubborn😂😂😂
i love how Wiley be trolling whitlock when he gets mad lmao.

I was sitting here like, "I could've swore cat had a stadium before this."
Love this show you guys keep it real. You can tell that your points are genuinely your convictions.
So they're making excuses for LBJ even though he would likely have played 65 games in total for the season?
True.
He has an injury the go from 4th to 10th so I'm tryna figure out why he's getting all the blame doesn't make sense they way they played without him I would've traded them too business is business
How would he have only played 65 if he did not get hurt
don't be stupid... he got hurt
@@josheppssr.8475 so what - so did the Rockets, Jazz, and Spurs, who at the time the Lakers were 4th seed, those teams were sitting outside of the top 8 due to various injured players as well (don't act like it was just LeBron who went down either). Now those teams are 5, 6, and 7 respectively. There's no guarantee that the Lakers would still be 4th had he, Rondo, Kuz, or Zo went down.
Oh my goodness, you are killing me. Literally you are killing me.😂😂😂😂
Whitlock is saying that LeBron's only weakness is ocassionally cracking under pressure.
I would agree. And I love LeBron, but I would still agree.
2007 - swept
2009 - lost in 6 to Dwight Howard
2010 - disappeared against the Celtics
2011 - disappeared against the Mavericks
Since then he has been pretty flawless, except for Game 1 of the 2018 Finals when he had that freakout on the bench. Saying the man has one minor weakness is not saying he is weak, because if he had no weaknesses he would be 9-0.
He still has given us some otherworldly underdog stories.
2012 - whooping the Thunder in 5
2013 - carried in 4th qtr of Game 6, coming back from 3-2
2015 - 34 13 9, taking the 65 win Warriors to 6 with his 2 all-stars OUT
2016 - coming back 3-1 against the 73 win Warriors
2017 - blowing out the Warriors in Game 4, averaging 30 10 10
2018 - 51 pts on the road (8th straight finals), comimg back against the Pacers and Celtics, 2 game-winners
#LeGoat #KingJames #StriveforGreatness
not sure you quite understood
4 moments in a 17 year career? Tf?
k c yeah he must of forgot about LeBron’s first stint with the Cavs
Owners ONLY at this point!!!!!!! 💪
Your talent will take you places your character won’t keep you. Big bro Bron been stand up like they said “no one is flawless.”
People mistake kindness for weakness
Lebron will always get the credit.. and never get the blame. no matter what happens. period.
Facts
You are absolutely wrong. LeBron James get all of the blame for the 2012 NBA finals. And whenever they bring up LeBron James three championships everyone said if it wasn’t for Ray Allen hitting the three-pointer he would not have won his second one or Kyrie hitting that three-pointer he would not have won his third one. Even today during the last four NBA finals people say LeBron James are one and three versus Golden State. Not Cleveland one and three versus Golden State but LeBron James.
He gets ALL the blame. Stop it!
Sadly
Kentucky Jones I'm sorry to say Kentucky Jones but he got all the blame for 2011 The Chosen One the Frozen one Whatever whatever way you want to sum it up to meanwhile where is the rest of the team name like the Dwayne Wade Chris Bosh and the rest of Miami Heat players hahaha .
I wonder how DimWhitlock would respond to the adverse circumstances of someone taking-away all his Twinkies🤔
I Love These Soap Operas They Only Care About Things Outside Of The Court The AD Plot Line Just Like The WWE Now
Whitlock is debating against sports adversity and Cutino is debating social adversity...they are arguing against two different topics. With D.Jones sees no wrong with Lebron so his opinion is voided.
Wrong he said his weakness is facing ADVERSITY not sports ADVERSITY.
When wrong you always have to reword your statements
Mr. CYP he states he respects what he has overcome. Clearly he’s referring to on the court issues.
@@carloslosamoore1 you're wrong all you heard was critical points about lebron and got mad
Exactly!!! They all rushed to save Lebron by using old washed up logic to defend him as if him being an only child to a single mother is an excuse....
You can't say Jones opinion is void lol it wasn't even an opinion.... He simply pointed out the fact that Lebron overcame adversity in a way that nobody else in the history of the NBA has done before. How is that void? And that wasn't social adversity... That was sports adversity and on the biggest stage in the NBA. Learn your facts bro. You and Whitlock need to think before you speak cause it makes you sound really dumb
Whitlock ha some serious underlying ISSUES!!!!--
LeQueen has a history of quitting and running away
2011 lebron missed 20 games and they still made the playoff.
2014 lebron missed 13 games and they still made the playoffs.
Don’t let lebrons media fan boys excuses fool you. The only difference is he’s in the West now 😂😂😂
Johnny Blaze lol d wade and bosh were on both those teams not one player on the Lakers compares to either
Yeah this is really a terrible example. Missing games due to rest in a team with veteran stars is MUCH different than missing games due to injury with a bunch of young players who have never dealt with adversity to this magnitude in the court.. especially during trade rumors..thats the difference. You sound stupid lol
I'm certain that you didn't think this through before posting it.
Can we wait till the seasons over then debate, cause theres still a chance
OG EEL explain James harden bringing his team from 13th to 4th.. because it’s just him no other superstar on the rockets. Chris Paul was injured during that entire stretch. Let me her your excuses?
i feel like they all really misunderstood what he was saying. he was just saying it’s his weakness. the weakest part of him doesn’t mean he’s terrible in adversity but it’s the only time he’s rarely shown weakness and struggle. he’s not saying anytime adversity ever shows he crumbles. at least that’s how i feel lol
i also agree with whitlock that just because we don’t view him as the greatest human being on the planet or the greatest basketball player of all time we are considered haters. just because we don’t worship him it’s hating. it’s crazy
i agree. It felt like they were arguing about two different topics.
He is talking about adversity with teams..... Not a racial issue smh
The only example Whitlock used to support his argument that actually made sense was the Dallas series when he was in Miami. What adversity could he not handle in Cleveland? He carried a team to the finals that was beat by a much better team. Then when they countered with examples of him overcoming adversity, then it's "y'all act like he's the only one to overcome adversity". I can tell from this and other segments I've watched that he's a big fan of LeBron.
@@kuruptgt right
Whitlock is jealous of anyone who can walk up a flight of stairs
The Bronsexuals were exposed in this piece.... All of their infatuation with LeBron stems that they believe he is some revolutionary brother who is down with the cause. First of all, he is a Nike asset. Secondly, he parrots white liberal talking points. Sorry to disappoint y'all!
Whitlock and haterism are synonymous.
Whitlock and buffets are too
@@jeremyjones290 I don't know about "they".
I'm talking about Whitlock consistently hating on Lebron.
Thomas Crown III ur being a lbj apologists obviously if lbj doesn’t make the playoffs it’ll be a failure,people will just make every excuse for lbj
@@Vortexnicholas He got hurt. Before he got hurt they were the 4th seed. If the Lakers don't make the playoffs it WILL be a failure. But the failure is institutional, it's not about Lebron. Had Walton developed his younger players better, the Lakers wouldn't have collapsed as soon as Lebron got hurt.
Whit was ahead of his time with these takes. Glad its on tape to go back and see.

Yeah he's a fan. But doesn't mean he's not right about what he said about adversity. Whitlock once said the only black ppl that are oppressed are the poor. Which is so non factual on so many accounts. Money doesn't bleach being black in America away.
WHITLOCK IS RIGHT, LEBRON JAMES IS NOT 24 YEARS OLD ANYMORE HE'S 34, AND I THINK WE'RE LOOKING AT THE END OF LEBRON JAMES...
@@jeremyjones290 this is called lowering the standard, this usually happens when reality catches up with expectations, but they are still too passionate about LBJ to speak against him. I would expect that from guys like Chris Broussard, Nick Wright or Shannon Sharpe, ...but former NBA players...gosh...
Cuttino Mobley almost killed Dahntay Jones during Big 3 Finals lol
AI took a worst team to the finals..
That team was great defensively. You don't know what you're talking about. Lakers were 20-14 before his injury.
Name the starting 5 his first final? Guarantee you can’t without google?
I mean lebron did took in 2007 or did you forget
There are 82 games in a season STOP bringing up the first 30 SOMETHING games to prove a point that doesn't matter fact is Lebron isn't hurt anymore NO MORE EXCUSES for your goat
@@Pheonixttty yes that does matter fool every game matters and the point was not only was they in the 4th seed but he was injured for 18 games that matters he is the head of the team players go out in try to win every game
Jason Whitlock is the worst Sports personality on Tv periodical !!!
It's funny how when everytime Catino said all the bad things LBJ went through in life he frounded up the whole time. Unbelievable
The 3-1 comeback was definitely an amazing feat, but there's a lot of context there beyond just the Cavs' performance.
Bruh pulled out the ring. He had enough of Whitlock's nonsense LOL
Im not a LeBron fan but stop it..... the man has been trough fire to be where he is and won a lot of close games
JW is a hater adversity every year every player every team has adversity and 9 finals sound more like good job handling adversities season by season
So how many games LeBron has missed due to "load management" since missing the GSW game? I am just wondering...
1st game back from injury players normally have minute restrictions. He played 42 minutes his first game back from the worst injury of his career. Please be rational

He doesn't want an established coach.
@@ryanstatler86 that's what people don't realize! He never wanted a great coach. I realized that early on and think he wanted to stat pad instead. A good coach wouldnt allow that because his energy and skills are better used differently. He was scared of the pressure MJ put on him by being clutch so he allows passed instead of taking the big shot.
@- theDONoam you can't say that because we don't have great proof LBJ excel in a regular offense. He also had plenty of opportunities to be coach by a Pop and other great coach if he wanted to but he choose as a free agent not to. So its dumb to make this argument.
He had great coaches
They are going to the playoffs after they buy tickets. 😂😂😂
*He might as well retired this last summer, hes USELESS now, "anything else is icing on the cake" FLOP!! LA WAS DUPED!! PLAYED & BAMBOOZLED BY LEBRON!*
Unspeakable pain… And the life of sacrifice… True sacrifice❤
So they are already getting excuses ready for lebron if he doesnt make the playoffs...lol..I'm a laker fan..if we miss the playoffs that's a failure...
He went with a pack of KOOLS....😂😂😂
I actually agreed with your first segment dahntay, but no...you won in 2016 because of a multitude of setbacks suffered by the warriors, not because of adversity. Draymond gets suspended, bogut gets injured, steph was not 100%, andre had back spasms.....
Lol u cant be serious
John Berry what about 2015???
John Berry finally someone says it that’s the truth nobody wants to hear
That's funny because that same year when Steph came back nd drop 40. Steph himself said he was back didn't Draymond play in game 6&7 while having 2 games in GS to win it all. But if you're going to use excuses for GS in 2016 then do the same thing in 2015 when Cleveland lost K. Love nd Kyrie nd then a look so Delly had to get Iv's in his body. Stop it
Sounds like excuses to me 🤦🏽♂️😂😬
I never had a Hummer at 16 and I didn't face all that adversity how tough could it have been
Wiz Ell Will the adversity came before during and after the Hummer. Many black athletes fall for that game. You got a Hummer and you live in the projects. He had made any money yet.
Whitlock is talking basketball adversity not personal adversity smh
Maurice Williams - Even if that is what he limited it to it’s still not true
Dahntay Jones FLEXIN a ring that he didnt even earn LMFAO absolutely no type of contribution
So now cause LeBron miss 17 games...That's the reason they don't make the playoffs..the excuse they make for Lebron...LMAO!
No it's factual, they were 4th now they are 10th. You can't blame someone because he was hurt it's silly
Bro they was in the 4th seed when he got injured you kno? But ofc that doesn't matter lmao🤔 lemme guess your a Michael Jordan groupie huh?
@@DanielSann they had an easy schedule in the beginning. Lebron maybe adds 4 or 5 wins to there total. But the trade with ad is causing problems
How is the truth an excuse you haters are unreal
Brooklyn Leon have you ever played a sport?
Marcellus what you said is 100% truth and a fact. I believe and I'm quite sure you will as well that the expectations just by being in LA was going to take them to the Championships and that's not reality. One of the mistakes was no disrespect to him because he is still one of my favorites is the power with Magic Johnson thinking if I'm correct that he could make changes without going through the process. The other is the lack of total Unity respect and communication within the locker room as well with the younger players.
I seen his finals record 3 of 9 in a losing story
I see only 5 superstars with better finals resumes that had better talent.
Nice to know that you have faith in LeBron to actually make the finals. But if he ever does I don't agree that he'll lose to a Eastern conference team cause that's just cray cray, right?
After pelicans game Whitlock is correct no one at that table has the guts to tell the truth it’s bron fault he put that team together but he gets a pass every time
Thanks to FS1 for giving Jason Bitchlock the proverbial boot!
Cuttino Mobley on 2/11/19 - "Lebron can take 4 guys from Home Depot and make the playoffs"
Cuttino Mobley on 3/5/19 - "They were 4th before Lebron got injured!"
The Lakers' record is 4-9 since Lebron returned from injury and activated playoff mode.
I think people get tired of the Lebron praise just like Tom Brady. lebron wasn’t born with those muscles. Go back to him early in his career. The dude trains like a champ. I feel like I have to qualify my comments about him to say I’m not a big fan or whatever cause he’s so polarizing but I’m not cause he’s great. So many dudes get labels of the next great whatever & don’t live up. He did
Facts my guy 🔥 he had so many expectations at 18 and has lived up to them
It's the PEDs
So did kevon looney he got 2 rings & LEBUM BLAMES still not the best his record shows you kmow stats he's lost more then he won it dont take a rocket scientist to figure it out lol
Polarizing to what demographic specifically?
You crazy you need to go watch LeBron highlights from when he was in high school LeBron James was a man child he was a man amongst boys literally that's why he had to go straight to the league
Where’s Stephen A Smith when we need him haha
Y'all have a endless amount of excuses for LeBron James Kobe Bryant and Michael Jordan never needed that because they won more than they lost and they never shrunk under pressure like LeBron!
actually... they all loss more than they won... kobe 5 in 20, michael 6 in 15, Lebron 3 in 15... lebron has won more series so far than both of them and does more for his team... also has the most clutch baskets, also has been on teams where he was the only one worth guarding.... and also faced the greatest TEAM of all time in the last 4 years.... people make a lot of excuses for the other 2.
Yeah and they both had Hall of Fame players beside them
thetrib1 exactly
@@thetrib1 he just don't have the rings 2 back it up right lol lebum blames is the GLOAT
(GREATEST LOSER OF ALL TIMES)
King of L's
@@maddmoney9342 rings to back what up.... no on has won on their own. i don't believe going 6-0 in the finals means you won more than you lost, cause he played 15 years! most lose more than they win.... except for bill and them. lebron may not be the goat to most people, but who is closer to the goat than him?
Now mobley talking about his life on the red carpet ...these people are sad when it comes to sports media....
I totally understood Cuttino in this episode. Watch from the start... He already knew what side Whitlock would stand lol
HOMELESS into a MILLIONAIRE, YEP, he had EASIEST road available. He has created JOBS, a BUSINESS Man, MARRIED his HIGH SCHOOL GIRLFRIEND, I wonder what he could have become if he went to COLLEGE?🤔
He'd be in an NCAA investigation
Witlock you talking about a 3 time champion. .bro 4 times mvp..3 times finals mvp...
Kudos to dahntay for pulling out that ring and "showing" what adversity is
i really lost whitlock on this one...
whitlock is one of the biggest morons on TV right now
How, he was on point with everything he said. People just hate for LBJ to be criticized. Logic goes out the door when it comes to Lebron.
The Lebron hate is real... 8 straight finals and still he dont get his just due
@@ballhogelite in the East man. In the east. It's a cake walk for him
@@juniorcrimebreakers2807 Greek freak, raptors, celtics and the 76ers are not weak... Lebron just owned them
