Should the Lakers consider trading LeBron James?
Trade this bum . Get kd and kawhi
Tilman Kuper nobody wants to come to LA for the past 7 Years+.. U lakers fan seem so entitled considering u haven’t won anything in almost a decade
@chocolatedrop4578 Do you realize how many teams not won anything in the last 10 years? Mute point there. Even Clippers fans are entitled and they never won a single championship.
If the lakers want to win rings in the future then test get rid of him
What did u think of the suns game i think they will be one of the teams to beat next season
Skip be drinking his Dew in a champagne glass when he watch LeBron play
😂😂
Alotta people are ADDICTED to Dew
(skip need AA)
U the goat
The drink for Champions 🍷
TJ Smith beat comment of the year
They gonna milk these Lebron topics while they still can lmao
Ray W they’re gonna do it even throughout the playoffs
Lol. Right
It's pathetic smh
You still clicked on the video
@anthonymcmxcix4533 exactly why can't they discuss the other teams its been a great season
What Chris Brussard is tryna say... "Big Baller, Undefeated, Nevalost".
Speak it Into Existence 👍👊😂
keef davis Lookin to make active members moderators+ I know 1000% what KD is doing after this season! facebook.com/groups/967348520070287/
Trade LeGM kick magic pelinca and luke out
@rhevescudero2467 keep luke ..lol they were in this same position last year ...this season only says something about lebron
Couple more years and some team,like NOLA, can have all 4 of them. I would watch that trash fire.
I love to watch old videos like this after 2020 Lakers championship lol
Lakers just singed Andre Ingram. *Playoff mode has finally been activated*
Did they really give him another shot ? Please tell me they are
Justin Marshall
Yep, they signed him for another 10 day contract
Just saw the news
At least he's better than the other ingram who can't shoot
Right
I want to hate Skip Bayless but damn I would have never known the talents of Shannon Sharpe. Someone over at CBS should get fired
Right
Why should they be fired if there wouldn't be Undisputed?
Jerry Whitlow he saying because they let Shannon sharpe go
@heavenlybeats3961 because I could have had the same content years earlier. If you can recognize talent then you push it forward but apparently the producers at CBS didn't recognize talent
CBS and their talk show hosts are BORING.
I’m from 2020 and I am here to tell you this was ridiculous 😂
Even when it was at the time this video was out this was ridiculous
hearing him say Lebraan , is worst than nails on a chalk board
🤣😃🤣🤣😃😃🤣😃😃🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣😃
That’s my favorite part
He can't help it, Lebron's nutz are in his mouth. Where tf is Rob Parker?
Tyler Austin 😂
😂
Injuries and trade rumours destroyed this season for LA.
Aldus Johann Garcia literally and they acting like it was LeBron’s fault...LeBron ain’t trading nobody the Lakers were
Aldus Johann Garcia exactly and if it were not for the injuries the trade rumors may not have occured
Fun fact...Lakers have a losing record in games lebron has played in
They were only a couple of games out of 10th spot when they were the 4th seed and they had a very easy schedule early on
Cryyyyyyy babyyyyy. Lebrons lack of defense, finger pointing and lack of shooters destroyed this team. Hardens team had injuries he reall went into “activation mode”
3:26 "Space Jamz" The original 😂😂😂
Enough with the 4th seed stuff. Memphis was in first at one place.
And 9th place Clippers were top!
Yeah...so...you’re using the same logic with different context to prove the same argument wrong? Lol. Reality is, before the mass of injuries and drama the team was doing fine. If you cannot accept that injuries and trade rumors about the whole team will affect on-court play, then you are just blind.
@MyFavoriteSportsballTeam so, 2 games ahead of 9th place is fine. Ok then
Ronnie Branford
Your an idiot
@jameslyons158 you're an internet troll
Shannon background sounds is killing me😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😊😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Dude just won finals mvp. 😂😂😂😂😂
You could literally use Chris Broussards argument for Luke Walton
Luke wanted to keep Randle and Zubac, Magic got rid of them anyway. And somehow it's Luke's fault for everything
Chris Broussard the hype man for the Lakers
Ronnie Branford he’s the coach
Chris should get his own show. He’s the only one I like listening to and really knows his stuff.
12:14 "Oh we ain't gon talk about Oronno.. Toronto" - Shannon Sharpe
Wtf is Oronno 😂😂😂
Lmao😂
They keep saying surround Lebron with shooters. Who gon’ play defense? You still gotta stop the other team from scoring.
If LBJ is driving and kicking and they are hitting the open shots, unlike KCP, Bullock, and Hart. The other team gets demoralized and guys who can't play D, have the mental edge.
@Vosovogalsyncope that doesn't affect teams like the Rockets and Warriors. Those teams will just keep scoring and let them shoot themselves out the game
DaevonTheSavage that still doesn’t discount the effect that it has when you make wide open shots instead of clanking the majority of them. Less transition opportunities, more half-court sets with a set defense.
He would have a lot of 3&D players that really just shoot and defend.
Tommy Tom Lebron is done. He can’t handle the western conference grind.
How do you build around a car that's breaking down.
I love watching this segment after Lebron won his fourth ring. It makes Super Hater Skip look Super Saiyan Stupid.
he said “the only really team.. “) lol 11:49
Let’s not forget the Lakers were at the top of the conference before the season started
6:12 chris face got me Dead 💀
Shannon’s Goat head is crying watching these lebron videos.
U mean on space jam? Lmao
"We forget HE was the 4th seed." Wow!!! Lmao!!! Proof they give him all the credit when they're winning... Total disrespect.
What is the lakers record without him? Smh
@Jetpackguyy The Lakers record with him ain't great either
@sreddi83 thank you, lmao!!!
They’re going to have the same record as last year. Lol
And at that same time the Clippers were also the first team in the west so its such a ridiculous argument for him especially if the record doesn't look any different from last season where we had just the young guys with a bunch of injuries as well and still win 35 games in the west.
Chris is Basketball Prophet+Messiah
This dude Shannon doesn't consider that MJ played three years in college, that's a grind too and in a time when traveling wasn't as easy as today
George Harry Are u planning to be a comedian?
George Harry Never was.
Shawn Orjiakor lebron is better than kobe statistically isn’t he?
@damilareajani5747 Statistically, yes but not much. Skill-wise, Nope. Kobe is better. And I pick skill and determination over numbers.
George Harry Facts
Soooo much chemistry between all 4 🙌🏻
LeBron would have more rings if he'd be willing to play in a system instead of being the system
I feel this
He did for the Cavs for his first 8 years 0 rings from it so thats false
Yeezy Dude false. He Didn’t win anything in his first 8 years. And he’s never had a hall of fame coach. What system does Luke have? Lol
Aaron Davis if Lebron had a coach like pop, it would be an insult to put anybody in the same sentence with Lebron
@youwouldntgetit2618 If Lebron would have won 4 straight in Miami Eric Spolstra would be considered a Hall of Fame coach. But he was stuck with a choking superstar. The player makes the coach. What has Phil Jackson did without Jordan and Kobe. What has Pop done without Duncan? Steve Kerr admitted that he doesn't even coach the Warriors but he'll go down as a HOF coach. Lebron doesn't win enough to make his coaches look HOF.
Stats don't mean a thing without wins
Grown men making excuses for another grown man SMH....
Damn was lavar right
Man they need to talk about something else. what are they gonna do when the playoffs start? Still talk about LeBron??
A.NoLove yes they’ll still cover bron
They'll talk about Warriors and Celtics drama when they can't about LeBron. They're getting all the LeBron talk out of the way so they can focus on that in April.
Shay Butta lol
it's pathetic, i agree with u
@Mamoke Akaunu people watch for the show personalities. Not the topics
Utah has Rudy Gobert on top of Mitchell and a lot of other depth
And why are you getting people to fit a player who is out of his prime smh they need new Analyst because they are out of the loop
Skip thought he was real slick with that spurs stat😂😂 12:40
There questioning his greatness and saying he isn’t the best.... next year I’m scared for the rest of the league
What these guys will wine after this undisputed thing
Ingram and Kuzma both have averaged 18ppg this season. Players just don't want to play with him anymore. Ask Lavar, he'll tell you. The guy wants to trade his whole roster to get a player represented by his agency to one of the most prestigious franchise in sports. Do we really think young and upcoming stars don't notice.
Can u really blame him. He know he needs to win a Chip before he retires. These young guys ain't it. They good but need time to become great. By that time Lebron will perhaps be retired. People just hate on Lebron no matter wut he do.
Don’t blame Lebron if free agents don’t come to LA. 5 years no superstar wanted anything to do with LA😂
arj1986 18 ppg......🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 ....now that is some achievement! 🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮
@ShadowVille2770 That's his best bet though. For him to coach up and inspire the younger talent around him because superstar vets (Kawhi, KD, PG13, Jimmy Buckets) don't want to play with him.
@daking1006 Jaylen Brown and Jayson Tatum for the Celtics have scoring averages less than Ingram and Kuzma have but are considered by many to be rising stars.
Shannon breaks down the west conference he is on point 👌
Milwaukee, Indiana, Toronto, Brooklyn, Denver, and Utah, off the top of my head are playoff teams that don't have a second Superstar
Che M oladipo is down and pacers still a top team just shows how trash the lakers are
Go head and trade him because any 1 if them teams would love to have him trust me people talk because he is not on they team..... nobody is coming to the Lakers they got lucky to get lebron and u think Kawhi or AD or KD coming there plz
I agree they are all far better then the Lakers. I wasn't arguing the Lakers are on par with any of them, only that you don't need a second superstar to be the type of team the Lakers want to be.
The idea now days that you need 2 superstars to be a contender is just people being caught up in the moment. All the teams I listed are contenders without being a part of that mold. Good on them.
I'm the east?
@doddododoo Denver and Utah aren't in the East neither are the Clippers or Kings
Im about to go get me some porcelain veneers too. Sick of Shay shay shining on me. Lol😁😁😁😁
Why does everyone have to adapt and fit to LeBron's style (type) of play. That's the problem now. It's all about "LeBron's system", and what he wants.
Warrior For Christ and that’s why his teammates get all the blame. Sad part is that his dumb fans can’t realize that his system is the reason for his failures. It only works when there’s an overload of talent
It worked, lebron went to the nba final 8 times in a row. That's almost a decade if you don't know.
@TheRamboss he only won anything when he had superteams in the weak east. A good system with 1 superstar like LeBron should at least get that team into the playoffs, yet he can't make it this year. This proves that his system sucks. It was the amount of superstars that helped him win, not his dumb system that only has room for him and one more ball handler, while everyone else becomes a spot-up shooter or lob catcher.
Talk about the West and the present, not the East and the past.
@TheRamboss playing in the weak east you fool. Him going 8 in a row in the east and then in his first year in the west not even making the playoffs? Makes that 'record' look tainted.
@TheRamboss 3-6 doesn't sound like it works. If he's as great as they claim. That's a huge underachievement. How can you be the best ever with a record like that?
Ingram is replacing Ingram haha
And isn't playing any defense stats padding
James Nnabeze play D for what? And drain himself for a team with no chance of winning it all? He’s better resting this playoffs run and get a superstar or 2 and win
I'm not hustling on Defense and risking my hamstring again for KCP, HART, and Bullock to miss wide open corner 3's all game. Believe it or not I bet LBJ rather see JR smith taking those corner shots then these guys lol.
@Vosovogalsyncope LeBron wasn't playing defense when he had JR Smith on his team in Cleveland last year.
James Nnabeze saying stat padding doesn’t mean anything. Lol u saying it likes it easy
Dresta tha Gangsta wtf? So who got the block on jimmy butler, oladipo, terry rozier 3x? Tell me who. Cuz i don’t remember.
These nba analysts are soon gonna be talking about what players have for breakfast like its breaking news
How dare JVG say anything slightly off about Lebron.
Has playoff mode been deactivated btw?
I’m here on January 30th 2021 after people predicting the Lakers to repeat........LMFAOOOOOO
Friendly reminder: When the Lakers were the 4th seed, the Clippers were number 1 in the west and houston was out of the playoffs. The lakers were also 2.5 games out of 10th place then.
Shannon says..oh and we ain’t going to talk about oronto...omg Shannon must see tv😂😂
I guess Shannon forgot the way he got dissed on LeBron show...
You really think that bothers ole Shay Sharpe?
Damn I thought he had a no trade clause
Trade LeBron for Ad and get kawhi in the offseason
Word!!!
@kakarot3306 fr tho
But how do you know you will get Kawhi, especially after this season?
He has a no trade clause they can’t
J Money no he doesn’t they can trade him anywhere and he can do nothing
It's crazy that people have to conform to a style of play that's not a winning formula
Lebron needs a tough coach that can control him like a Gregg Popevich. You can’t put him with a young coach and expect Luke to do well.
Lebron is done
abbott360 I think Lebron can still be a very good assist to a team but just needs a strong coach and a good front office team
Lebron doesn’t want to be coached. He been in control since a teen, he can’t be controlled because he’s been spoon fed since a teen.
Emad Takla then he wouldn’t be able to run the Lebron offense and pad his stats .
Space Jam wasn't filmed after the Orlando lose.
They get on my nerves. LeBron is getting old and what good is a player that will play when he wants. How effective is a player that stands around
Ask James Harden
Maybe we should sign you bruh. Think you can drop 28 8 and 8?
@tracyhallmon8872 People be wilid'n bruh. Fans became the media. It's just about Lebron not about basketball anymore.
@carlos harris effective enough to win the chip a year later!
Very effective if you watch basketball, but since you're pretty stupid, you will never notice that Lebron coast in regular season and play seriously in the playoffs.
Hold on hold on CHRIS IS TALKING 😂😂😣
WAITTT!!?? YALL SERIOUS!? THEY WERE 4th seed before the injuries YA GOT TO RELAX
4th seed but 2 games away from being 10th.
Damn Chris Brousard would make an excellant preacher.
How can someone put up numbers like that and still be absolute trash.
No on wants to carry him. More importantly, no one wants to play 4 v 5 on defence.
Ahahahahahaha
Preach
Simple,his assists comes with a lot of turnovers,he gets them because in his system the ball is always on his hands.The rebounds he gets are the easy ones,he stays like a helicopter in the rim waiting.Lebron also is one of worst shooter from 10ft beyond
*defense
@moss93 no I spelt correctly.
@brentonguy4772 ah okay
If Skip brings up that tweet one more damn time...
Karl Malone put up great numbers in his final seasons. Lebron's impact isn't the same.
@thagreat6010 i said seasons idiot lol
Karl Malone and Gary Payton were terrible on the Lakers. Probably the most under achieving super team to date lol.
@Vosovogalsyncope lol my point exactly
@Vosovogalsyncope Malone was great you goof. Payton on the other hand, couldn't grasp the triangle that year. Mailman getting hurt was the main reason The Lake Show lost to Detroit.
He was a solid contributor like perhaps David west was for GS. But you talk like he was the x factor 😂. That squad was bad.
STOP BRINGING UP THAT TWEET SKIIIIIIP!
Legm gets traded to the Phoenix Suns 😂😂😂
I would take devon booker 4 lequeen
thats crazy talk
I must be ridiculous lol I thought they should trade him like 2 months ago
The second the signed him I was asking for trades lmao
Yes, you are lol.
@robertosalazar8170 dumbest comment of all goes to u titto
Oh so there are two clowns in this so cry together
Should be running the Triangle offense.
"What is right isn’t always popular, and what is popular isn’t always right."
- Jerry West
It’s easy to get them numbers in garbage time
As said from the video title, i think they should. The young guys are flourishing. Bron is a Liability on defense. Get a star who actually really wants to contribute all around.
Trade the best player on the team. Also, the young guys aren’t flourishing, they are injured and Ingram is the best younger guy.
Bro skip bayless is funny afff yooooo I’m dead af 😭😭😭😭😭😭3:04
Lebron and butler wouldn’t mesh either
Baron Bolanos butler is trash
WHY IS IT EVEN A THOUGHT
Imagine averaging 27 points/8.5 rebounds/8 assists on 51% shooting and being considered trash...😏
Straight up tho... people throw that term out about everything these days lol
Who also gets in the 4th quarter of the Finals the past 2 years and only avg 4 points in the 4th quarter in close games?
#Trash
dana you're gorgoues 😅
pren thomas Where do you get that stats?
@Samuel-zo5eq lol he made it up. Lebron probably averages like 15pts during that time period.
Welcome back Chris Broussard!! Missed you a lot!
Lakers should trade Lebron. The test experiment has failed. Trade Lebron Get AD and Kawhi Leonard. Boom!! Much better team.
Or KD
Shannon Sharpe is even more irritating than skip bayless
Jimmy Butler to the lakers? 🤣
Get the popcorn boys more hot takes next season
5:52 when you hittin her from the bac but she wants to ride
Every time they say Lebron is the best player in the world reminds me of each time George Bush said Sadaam has weapons of mass destruction...
Doesn't matter who they get they still need a point guard that can play
How is it ridiculous to entertain the idea of trading a 34yo who was just hurt, break team chemistry and is chasing away top players (by being toxic) ?
KEEP SPEAKING THAT TRUTH BROTHERRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR
broussard, why you yellin at the mic?
Trade Lebron for Ad. Sign KD and the lakers are championship contenders.
That would be dope
100
17yrs really
I thought lebron made everyone better name me one player
Kuz
Mo Williams
Big z
Kyrie
I can't wait to what Lakers going to do this off season...
If Lakers not gonna fire Luke Walton...
They have to trade LBJ
Walton can't coach an aging veteran in LBJ.
Walton and Bron came in the league the same year, he can't coach him cuz Bron's a better coach
@rexwest3125 ..LBJ won't ever have any respect for anything Walton has to say... Less Jenny can convince Phil Jackson to coach again Lakers will continue to be Below Average for the next 3 or 4 yrs..
@coolmoe3289 Phil Jackson is washed(physically)
@charlescooks9360 .. You Right.. Phil can't even get on Airplanes any more..
Lakers need to trade LBJ .. Now..
Prayers to my dawg Bi✊️✊️
It’s absolutely stupid, they wouldn’t get much for him and it would make them look bad as a franchise. Chris making lots of sense
He don’t play none of our bigs and we traded Zubac which was dumb af..
This will going on for years man smh laker fans in 4 years : damn remember that year we were 4th w bron before he got hurt? 😐
Captain Sauce Lmao
Captain Sauce they’re making a 30 for 30 about their three week run as the fourth seed.
Oh man, thanks! I needed that laugh
It's not about stats, it's about control of the game.
Ofc this fanboy thinks it’s ridiculous lol the fact of the matter is no one with championship aspirations would trade for Bron right now. Way too much baggage and terrible defensive play. Lakers should’ve never signed this guy just like they should’ve never drafted Lonzo lol two monumental mistakes that will set them back even further.
Educated thank you I like your comments. Lozo can't shoot big waste of a pick. Lebron plays no defense big waste of money. LA. should have waited to end of season to make moves!!!!
Educated lol dumb.
J Shabazz exactly Brody. They let Dloading, Randle, and Zubac go for no reason lmfaoo they are horrendous at drafting and developing players, that’s why they are banking all their hopes on getting kyrie or KD 😭💀💀 which we know isn’t gonna happened.
The fans are chanting go back to Cleveland , what else do you want
Before the season saying the Lakers wouldn't make the playoffs would get you crucified but guess what THEY NOT MAKING THE PLAYOFFS...... So saying trading LeBron would be dumb isn't as bad..... If the Lakers got a commitment from KD & Kawhi saying they'll come to the Lakers if you trade LeBron away you don't think they'll listen to offers for LeBron 🤔🤔🤔
Skip and Shannon going to hate talking about every team in the playoffs without the Lakers and LeBron
One mediocre season and everyone forget who you really are... #prisonerofthemoment
He's not even performing at a mediocre level either
Quentin Hayes Yea he is he’s playing good on offense and terrible on defense so mediocre.
@calvin1559 honest question. Do you watch the games? I've seen the clips they post of him standing in the key, getting pushed by Kuzma. Yeah they're terrible, in fact embarrassing defensive efforts. But they're one or two seconds in a 48 minute game. Generally he's played decent enough defence throughout the course of the game. The "terrible defence" gets exaggerated as if he performs like that for 40 minutes a night. Further, it's a few games post injury. They were 4th in defence pre 2019 weren't they, or something like that? He's just scrutinised so much because his name is LeBron.
No people have opened their eyes to who he has always been..
Playoff mode deactivated
