When was the last time LBJ played any real defense? So yes he can score 25-30 but gives up same if not more
The media is struggling without lebron and the Lakers
True they need Bron around for life to have a topic every day
hearing Shady talk about basketball is like having lebron talk about ice skating
Stop watching then.
Boy you a FULL BLOWN CASUAL GTOH
😂😂😂 that's hilarious...and factual
He's freaking horrible along with keyshaun Johnson 😅
As opposed to random idiots on RUclips comments? I'd rather a pro athlete that played at a high level than anyone else.
The fact that ESPN is still talking about how the Lakers lost and not how the Nuggets won. CAN WE PLEASE MOVE ON AND TALK ABOUT THE WINNING TEAM AND THE NEXT SERIES!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I hate that , you got young teams up and coming stars and theyre so focused on the old guard. They home now move on.
@@iamsamfortunebrg8772HELL YEAH!!! You got up and coming stars like ant man, sga , Luka, joker and many many more but they choose to keep talking about these old men like lebron, KD and Steph
Nope! Gotta keep talking about a team that's been eliminated. Same way no matter what we always gotta hear about the Cowboys. It's like there are only a handful of teams to talk about in every sport.
Lmao I'm I the only one waiting for Acho?
Yes. He’s a clown.
Only you like jabronies🤦🏿♂️
Honestly, I get wanting to play with your son, but if The Lakers bring in Bronny they not serious about winning. Bronny his only being considered in the NBA is because of his dad. You got dudes that aren't even going to the NBA that are way better.
But LeCAP said bronny is better then most players in the NBA right now
Waste of a pick. Lakers need to rebuild.
They'll be fine get bronny undrafted or with there last pick, they honestly need to make a trade for another big and put AD back at 4
Thanasis is only on the team because of Giannis and no one gives af. Get over it
@@Girlmom3024 🤣🤣
If the Lakers picks his son, that will not end well. Bonny will get roasted 🔥🔥🔥
Every starting point guard and shooting guard who made it to 2024 NCAA tournament and NIT tournament is better than Bronny James. But he's going to get drafted over them...🤔😳🤷🏽♂️?
Mane, this 💩 is sad 😔 and pathetic
@@DaMixWizard stop dickeating and make a son that's a pro until then you just sound like a bot
It’s gonna be Lonzo but wayyyyy worst. And Lonzo could actually play
you’re whole team will get roasted
@@zanccarrdo😂😂😂 u clowns don't know basketball. Bronny has a strong bloodline. Bronny will be fine
Ric Bucher is the only one on set with a realistic take. I'm tired of LeBron and I think Bronny should've waited a few more years. He's not top 5 or top 10. I'm ready to celebrate young guys like Maxey, Gilgeous Alexander and Edwards. Too much young talent to keep over hyping LeBron!
Funny watching these football dudes struggle through this segment 😂
Most of these sports personalities are former pro football players even when they're speaking on
other sports/players. Make it make sense to me also.
And Joy is not much better
It's hard to lie ask Shay Shay
Ric is the only one on this panel wit some sense Real sports analyst!!!!!! 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
Stop
Except when he said lebron was top 10 this year💯😭he’s not better than fox Brunson Steph KD kwahi shai luka embid Tatum Jokic AD brown Maxey Giannis 💯let’s be real he’s just out there getting his numbers
@@Dipset415 You must be delusional
@@Dipset415ok genius take his numbers away from the Lakers where would they be who are you going to depend dlo rui reeves.
No. LJ doesn’t have to retire bc he’s not the clear cut mvp or a top 10 player. His team should be competitive.
If you playing with your son in the NBA, it's time to retire.If you are Laker Fan, why draft Bronny with ZERO Impact in the NCAA to the Lakers. Laker Fans want Championships not Lebrons Bucket List! 😂
So what? Every team fan wants a championship
Not like they’d be taking him in the lottery, “burning” the 55th pick isn’t an indictment of anything
@@Joshualevibrown Championship for who? The Team or the Player?
Can’t be as bad as the bucks having Giannis’s brother on the team. Just think of it as having a 9 man roster instead of 10. 💀
@Rehkew brah Bronny was putting up JCO numbers in the NCAA. It's worst and he is under size..
You guys love lebron so much that you're getting crazy
Ur a idiot the numbers show you don't know ball
shady's takes are equivalent to a 1st grade child telling you the sky is blue
He a football player ... Doesn't know NBA
Yeah sometimes
Then maybe it should be you sitting up there but that’s not gonna happen because you’re a bum living in mamas basement
@@rcbrown22 this is his job know, he should be studying and learning to do better.
Correct
Lebron been a ring chaser. They change the narrative all the time.
What is a ring chaser? Define that first, and then make sure LeBron’s name fits your description. Casual.
@@zingisamahlaselaA person who switches teams consistently over his career in hopes of having a better chance at winning a championship. Lebron literally fits this description…
@@fyilando854 Now, since LeBron came into the league, he’s played for 3 teams. ‘03 - ‘10 Cavs; ‘10 - 14 Heat; ‘14 - ‘18 Cavs; ‘18 - present Lakers. Where is the right chasing there? Is he joining teams that are already successful? Or teams that are irrelevant or can no longer get past the 1st round of the playoffs in the case of the Heat in 2010. The hate in your heart for the man is rife. And I’m not even the biggest LeBron fan. But if you don’t know what a ring chaser is, don’t use the term.
@@zingisamahlasela Heat were already successful, Dwade literally won them a chip while Lebron was playing, Lakers were successful they literally won 2 chips while Lebron was playing only team that was trash was Cleveland …
@@zingisamahlaselahe leaves when the team stops being competitive
Now no one really believed the Lakers were going to the finals .. oh ok
Lmfaooo right😂 and they started show sayin nothing is LeBron‘s fault it was all out of his control just crazy stuff 😮😅
Ikr😭😭
They're essentially saying that Lebron is bigger than the game and is the only player in NBA history that doesn't have to play to win.
This era can end fast enough.
Glad to see James back on the show. You were missed bro!
Mission accomplished. Has taken the focus off the Nuggets win, the playoffs, and made it completely about him and his son. 😂😂😂
I’m not gonna lie since lebron got put out the playoffs it’s boring I’m not a 100% basketball ball fan I can’t just watch 2 teams play … lebron James is entertaining af on/off the court his lifestyle and his kids come on now did y’all forget he is a billionaire too plus he sell tickets and give what ever team he play for cable deals
@@christophermallory8741so that means you don’t watch basketball for basketball then. You only watch for twitter social justice bs and what makes you feel woke because that’s all Lebron is known for outside of basketball clown
@@christophermallory8741You're stupid then.
@@christophermallory8741So you’re going to get butts in seats, stats and dunk but no winning games or championships? Got it 👍
Yep...he pays them to talk about him lol
Ole Ric is doing his audition for being the next Skip by dissecting and nitpicking the lowlights of a 39 year old that has no business playing even remotely close the level he’s playing at.
💉💉
Not a Lebron fan or a fan of any of the teams in about to mention. Lebron is going to the East, he wants to win and the west is a bloodbath. The East is easy, that’s how he went to the finals 8 straight years I believe. He’s either going to 1) Knicks or 2) Sixers, or 3) Cavs. A championship with a fourth organization would be used for his goat argument, though I disagree with it. Knicks might be able to trade for AD, this summer and if Brunson doesn’t work, they’ll trade him for Kyrie.
You play to win chips not participating Trophies 🤔
Not everyone wins - and some go through their entire career and never win a title
lakers future so bright if they draft bronny jnr 💀💀🤣
@@Officiallyjaystick if your gonna compare Lebronda James to the GOAT MJ ....then Chips matter
@@jca9417 yeah that's why I have Bill Russell as my goat. Everyone can say what they want but my guy has 11 rings.
Ric is acting like LeBron is a bad basketball player. SMH. The HATE is.........real.
Shady is the worse, when he speaks it’s like NAILS ON A CHALKBOARD
Agreed 💯
Him and Keyshon 😄
@@brianhardy612 omg yes him too ugh
Ric is the voice of reason in this show
He is the voice of people who have hate in their hearts.
Lakers cannot draft or sign Bronny. No nba gm would waste a pick or roster spot on a below average collegiate player. Don't do it Rob and Jeanie!
In most cases that's true. But LeBrun is holding them hostage until after the draft. His power play is for one reason. He knows his son stinks but he doesn't care.
Lebron doesn't care about his son anymore. He wants more rings.
Don't understand how folks are not seeing Bron saying enjoy the playoffs.
Kd ain’t a two way player either but they refuse to say that
Here we go another summer of dissecting another man’s emotions through a website….. media is a shame
The GLAZING by shady is shameless...
Too true!
If LeBron wants another chip he has to leave LA because the West will be tough Mountain to climb 🤔
He's not good enough at this stage to carry a team... and he isn't skilled (or humble)enough to be a role player for a team that has genuine championship quality.
He could do the "super team up" with KD and Steph... but that team would implode in a comical fashion
LeBron to GSW😂
As a LBJ fan, I'm not a FAN BOY, HIS days are over in LA winning rings, rumors are should he go to New York, but I'm seeing NY fans online saying they don't want him 😅😂😂
11:51 Rick tripping , if Lebron played like trash , yes but he is playing at a high level. 12:31 come on Rick everyone has moments.
He's playing at a high level on offense, not defense.
Ric makes the most sense on this topic. The 3 others are just delusional. Scared to hurt Lebrons feelings.
D Lo and Rui need to go and the Lakers should completely change their bench. Outside of Prince none of the other bench players did a single thing in the Nuggets series.
I’m a Kobe fan but real talk none of the greats was playing this good this late in their career
We'll see. If the rumors of PED's are verified, then, all of his accomplishments (including the Hall-of Fame) are in jeopardy. Besides, he's not playing at an elite level anymore, especially on defense. And no, he's not even the Lakers best player.
@@Fernando-vg4ym How long should we wait for it to be verified?
Yeah, they did. Kareem was MVP of the Finals at age 38 for heaven's sake!
@@jeremywilliams8559 Realistically, I don't see anything happening till after he retires. Adam Silver has put too much stock on him until then. What I don't understand is his fanbase. What do they see in him? He's a narcissist who only cares about himself. He's a liar, a flopper, a complainer, a quitter, a stat chaser, title chaser who constantly throws his teammates, coaches and organizations under the bus. Plus, he's one of the biggest racists in sports. Other than that, I have nothing against him.
@@jeromemaida4933 It's so typical for his fanboys and the highly biased media to ignore the truth.
Slick is spittin facts!
Joy made it sound so depressing. She’s ok with LeBron just making the playoffs and having decent numbers. It’s what he’s been doing lol. But she makes it sound so sad
123 Galveston 😅😂
Ric Bucher taking these talking heads to school. I like James Jones, but these 3 pundits should leave basketball commentary to people who actually know basketball.
Beuker THANK YOU for telling the truth 👍🏾
yall the best show on fs1 rn
New drinking game take a shot every time they say HIGH LEVEL😂☠️
Basically Ric Bucher is saying that Bron should just retire?? Sounds like it…
When MJ retired finally, he wasn't top 50, Kobe wasn't top 25 or Magic wasn't top 50... There's no ignominy in fading away gracefully...
If Bronny plays with his dad it will show the Lakers and the NBA is a farce. Bronny just ain’t good enough to be in the NBA yet that has just been swept under the carpet. Ken Griffey played with his dad but Griffey jr was an all time great. Bronny is not and will not be on that level.
Should tell you how manufactured lebrons entire career has been 💯
@@Dipset415 now that’s a stretch
Manufactured career? 😂😂😂
Jordan as a wizard was not falling off
Did he say Lebron has always been the guy of guys joining him to chase the ring? 😂😂😂 I needed a good laugh
TOP Seven: Jokic, SGA, Luka, Ant, Tatum, Giannis, Embid
Whose next: Steph, AD, LBJ, Brunson, Booker, KD?
If not for Denver hitting two game winning shots, this series would've been tied 3 to 3 going into a game 7. Am not sure what Ric Bucher is looking at when he watched the Lakers, but they don't need a 3rd star they just need a better consisted 3rd option than D-low. The games were close, it's not like Denver is running the Lakers off the court. Bucher would admit that Denver has the better overall roster/team and yet the Lakers are hanging in there with them. The Lakers just need a few right pieces and for everyone to be healthy.
..at Cleveland with his son is legendary. Forget about media but not the greatness career in basketball
Dallas is also there!
Joy's take is ridiculous. "If LBJ continues to score more doesnt that add to his legacy?"
there goes s-s-s-s-s-stuttering Shady again.
Lebron is so shady. Anytime he loses, he doesn't know his future but if he wins he's happy to stay. What a legend!
Why are we talking Lakers now?.....
Running out of topics..
Lebron the 🐐 all I can think
Cause it sales and brings in views
America's team. Get over it
@@chrisanderson2056YES SIRRRRRR
LeBron will be a 76er. Come back to this.
😂
Preach Buek Preach, tell them the truth
If LeBron is going to stay a laker, then I only want Bob Myers as the general manager with full autonomy
Stat padding looks like that
For all who saying LBJS aint the goat why you here? There was playoff games last night so if you aint on the heads for this topic instead of that. He is the goat just accept it bc you cant live with out and your comments prove it your constantly engagement has proven it.
No GOAT gets swept in the WCF and gentleman swept in the first round with a top 75 player
Lebron needed 2 other stars to win titles. That is fact. Hes top 110, have him 6-7
@christiannieto9827 who doesn't need 2 other stars with them to win titles? You think Murray Gordon and porter won't be hall fame at the end of day. Bc any body can be all star Vin baker was allstar
@otisthomas9976 i said stars, not all stars. Even then, not many ppl needed 2 other all stars in order to win a title. Lebron needed 2 other franchise players (Wade + Bosh & Kyrie + Love) in order to win. And even then with 2 other stars he still lost more than he win 🤣
Rick actually is right this time . 💯
So LeBron was there cussing the Lakers for not giving him enough help and you expect the same Lakers to bring in Bronny who is clearly not ready for the NBA.
If you not playing for championships then wtf are you playing for? Oh that's right, stat padding! This is stupid. The new narrative is it aint about going to the finals. Its about the In season wins. 😂😂😂
Why did you click on this to provide a "hate" comment
@@Officiallyjaystick it's a truth comment
Hearing shady talk football is bad
Hearing shady talk basketball is absolutely horrible
This guy is the worst talking head personality on TV
Love Ric on the show
I’m tired of them saying nobody can match up with the nuggets they act like this team is unbeatable like wtf
They should have kept the team the won the championship with. That team had chemistry. The only change i would make was to get AR.
Refreshing to see someone stating facts about where Bron is in his career. Still puts up stats, but no longer impacts winning as he used to. Doesn’t play defense, always near the top of the list in turnovers, and constantly renovates his teams because he “doesn’t have enough help” or the coaching is bad. It’s always “who can we get for Bron to win a championship with”, not building a team/coach consistency. New coach every few years, new team overhaul every year; that’s why the teams like OKC, Sacramento, Boston, etc. are the top teams moving forward.
They want lebum to play till he is 50.
Like brady it will be he can still play.
Then there will be lebum the owner,player,coach and GM.
He’ll prolly be just starting his menopause by then , time to have a sit down
LeBron should stay as long as he wants
Crazy thing is if Bron would’ve gone to Philly in 2017…it would’ve been Jimmy Butler, Embiid, Ben Simmons and LeBron🤣That’s 2 rings minimum possibly 4 rings max. What are we talking about here? Bron is still a top 10 player. Go to Philly! Win another Ring for a 4th team and keep building upon an already legendary legacy💯
As a Cleveland Cavalier.
Lakers just got gentlemen swept in the first round and we still talking about last year's WCF, where they got SWEPT.
He lost to the nuggets not and low seed that's the crazy part.. he was on the lesser team
Exactly ‼️ The Defending Champions whom they lost to last year in the conference final. LeBron has people so spoiled that he has to go to the finals every year. Then they always bring Jordan into play but he only went 3 years missed 2 then went 3 again. Then he never appeared in the finals again
@@kerwinross2361 i say all the time I was born in the 80s MJ was that guy.. we was enamored by him.. when I was 19 I seen a article about a kid MJ said could play in the league now as a sophomore.. low and behold that kid has exceeded all that was thought he could do.. the man has made every team he plays on a potential conference finals team
@@kerwinross2361that's because Jerry Krause broke up the Bulls or Michael would have won a couple more. Also.....he never lost a finals 6 - 0. LeBron can't say that.
Now I hope someone drafts Bronny too high elsewhere to not let them pair up lol
If the lakers find a center and put AD back at the 4 yes they are a better team
They have no draft capitol
LeBron should stay with the Lakers but if I'm the Lakers I would not have him stay if it's contingent on them wasting a draft pick on a sub par player (based on what we saw in college) just so he can play with his son but in no way be able to better the whole team.
He should stay until his numbers are above 18 ppg - 6 rpg - 6 apg
I normally like Rick's takes, but that was really unintelligent to say LeBron has always been the guy who has other people join HIM for a championship team. He went to Dwayne Wade. The only time he really got an "elite" guy to join him was Anthony Davis.
If playing with his son is all he wants ! .... LeBron needs to go to a team capeable of drafting his son, but also a team who will keep the kid afterwards. Even after LeBron is gone !
I dont see LeBron playing for more then 1-2 years ... (1 is 98,9% in my mind(we had a debate :) ))
Nobody is keeping his son after he retires. His son isn't even in the top 100 in college.
LeBron practically raised the question and now he acts as if the media should just stop asking and leave him alone. That's what he always does. He loves this circus around him. Last year everyone knew he'd play at least one more season but he acted as if he could actually retire.
"We're gonna enjoy father and son playing together" What the... what kind of fans are you there in America? You've taken the phrase family sport to a whole new dimension
LeNeedsHelp should make another LeSuperteam
He should finish with the Guangdong Southern Tigers
The LA Lakers are not serious about winning a championship if Bronny is drafted. Meanwhile, Boston is looking at an 18th championship.
Looking!!! They been browsing pretty good... Let me know when they buy something...
love the orange Joy!!!
Since when is scoring points playing at a high level when you are a ghost on defense?
Idea for new FS1 panel show. Unc aka Shannon, Jenny Taft moderator and contributing panelist, and Max Kellerman. What y’all think? 🤔
Max heck nah
It would be a better show than a lot of stuff that's already on presently.
I'm good on having superfluous women there just for optics... Sharpe & Kellerman would be fine
FS1 already fired Shannon . How do that work? they bought out his contract. so guess what, he aint coming back. Jenny is gone Max done with tv. so theres nothing to fantasize about
@@FaceFamous Shannon was more a breakup deal with Skip. Then his podcast took off, and SAS got him on espn now and then. Jenny had a child, and Skip made sure she wasn’t back. Max sent off cause SAS, but I’m sure all these figures would be open to a show. Doubtful it would happen but I think a good panel idea
5 years after Lebron is gone he will still lead the segment. There's still teams playing as we speak.
probably. I really think people are going to miss him when he's gone. When Steph and Kd gone too. I'm sure alot of people are going to stop watching the league
@AnonymousUser-ss2qr
I'm sure Bron will be missed. I will definitely miss him honestly. But we've seen this before. When Magic, Bird and Isaiah left we had Jordan. When Jordan left we had Kobe, Shaq, Yao, Iverson, Vince and Tmac, Dirk,Kg, Pierce. When they left we had Bron, Melo Wade, Kd and Steph, James, Russ, Khawi and Kyrie. When they leave, we will have Luka,Wemby, Antman, Tatum,Bronny, Haliburton, Giannis, Booker, plus many more. It always feels like the game will never be the same, but it always keeps getting better. A new era goat will emerge
Buek is my new guy because he is honest
He’s gonna be a spur !!! Spurs drafting another top player and they will draft bronny and get bron. That make there bench great and there starters great as well. Oh and they can add in free agents so I expect him to be a spur. I’ve said it all year. I’m sticking with that.
Slick is a bootleg version of skip when it comes to the level of hate on LBJ
The amount of hate for Lebron is crazy ain’t no body better than Lebron against any teams this dude plays y’all just expect him to be perfect n score 200 points a game that’s how good he is simple
Lukas and Kyrie wants LeBron with the mavericks 😊😊😊😊
LeBron since coming to LA has been in his coaching up his teammates. He got th3 championship, great but hes more about helping his teammates become better.
We need real journalist back like ric. These sports shows dont hire real journalist anymore so we have to always hear lebum worshipping
As for Lebron, don’t do Wizards Jordan! Go out while you can still play a little bit! The title runs are over!
4:39 nope we feel the same we want to watch Lebron play .
I do not care. Why would I want to see him play with his son. Who should be a G league player at best right now.
It’s funny when they say stay in LA and take a 168 million for 3 years and complain about him having no help. How bout pull a d-wade and take 30 million for 3 years and use the rest of that money for other players to help him if winning a championship is that important.
Jordan didn’t have to play that long to achieve 6 rings
Hats off to LeBron & his training staff & stuff cause to be able to jump like he is at the age of 39 is superior lol but he will just be playing just to be playing at this stage of his life. He can only which Slick Rick said he couldn't do anything but improve his jump shot now. But hope he does get to play with his son. For whatever reason Vince Carter played until he was like 42 or 43 so LeBron can do so as we'll if he wanted to. But if he wants another ring then come on to the Warriors him & Curry can make ring 5 together lol
