Itll be nice to get a big but We can run with this team up till trade deadline. We must trade for a big by trade line though. This team has everything you'd want. Ball handlers wings and one of the best bigs. Everyone just gotta play to their potential
The Lakers have terrible shooter's. I don't care how good Reddick is, the Lakers don't have good shooters. The Lakers might make the playoffs. Teams have been getting better in the off-season
Last season i was so frustrated watching the offense at times. Seeing players standing around staring at lebron to do something. We def need more motion open up the paint for easier buckets
The offense has been like this even during the Vogel era, just stand around and wait for Lebron to do something, then watch the shot clock fall and chuck up a terrible shot. We have needed more movement and cutting on offense for years and I’m glad that hopefully they will be addressing the issue
@jameschan9634 If they were moving instead of standing it would not be all on LeBron. 😏 LeBron is as unselfish player as you get - if a teammate is open he would pass them the ball. If everyone's just standing nothing happens and then it's all on LeBron.
I truly believe the people that are STILL hating on JJ never cared to do their research on his mind. He understands basketball on a deep deep level. Now I know coaching is much more than that, but people can at least give him credit for the way he views the game and for how he’s able to articulate his views.
that’s the main reason why i hoping they hired him way back when darvin was still coaching. the offense & defense will be better, now it’s all about the roster
@@zyxtrrWhat upset me the most w/ Darvin, we weren’t bad last year. Not at all. The coaching staff fumbled A LOT of games strategy-wise, we could’ve had 55 wins w/ how we lost some games. And we blew our chances against Denver. There’s always room for improvement w/ the roster, but I think we’re 1-2 marginal moves away from being true contenders. Thanks Pelinka lol.
More sets, more movement for your forty year old guy? More activity for your other guy that abslutely dissapears in fourth quarters? For the same team, same players that gassed out every third quarter last season? Yeah, good luck with that.
@@asapmimic1289 Dopey Darvin had no plan. He just got lucky Bron/Kyrie carried Dopey David Blatt to the Finals in 2015. He got fired 6 months later and hasnt gotten an Nba gig since Dopey Darvin getting carried to the WCF by 2 superstars proves NADA
In addition to the money awarded to the winning team; I think it would be cool if the NBA Tournament winner trumped any Tie breakers for all playoff seeding.

Max can be a solid contributor! He never had the chance to realize his potential with Darvin. The size of his new contract is a good sign they recognize that now.
totally agreed with JJ but we are still not going to be a championship caliber team with our current roster. I think one thing they immediately need even more than shooting is a good backup big cuz Hayes and wood are just not it. Shooting can be better but that can be done during the mid season free agency too but please atleast get a good backup big
The winner of the Cup should get one of these possible options: - to move up a spot in playoff position - get first round homecourt advantage regardless of seeding - pick their first round opponent in the playoffs Sometime like would give it enormous value and have huge implications.
To have the players execute it you need to have them buy in. If you can't have them buy in you're a bad coach. Things don't work any longer as they use to and it's a coach's job to have his players buy in.
Lakers best player last year defensive rating was 43% which was below league average, JJ need to focus on defense too. And make all players especially the superstars accountable in playing defense.
Pretty much the Lakers offense is give the ball to Lebron/AD, let him drive or iso, and kick out to open player when doubled. Everyone else stands around and miss the open 3. It's time to have a motion offense to create easy looks for everyone and everyone can be involved instead of being defensive mules for Lebron.
I don’t mind the ugly bright courts, it’s a least something different and reminds me of the 90’s colors. However, they need to be functional this time around, can’t have players getting hurt on those terribly painted courts
@@djnatureboy look at the comments. A not of them are super generic. This is a really great question bro. I’ve been on RUclips since it started and I have been commenting and reading them for a while too. It’s just a certain way to see
Frankly, I don't think the new Clippers logo is that bad. I would have preferred a side profile of a clipper ship, but it's not bad. It's certainly better that the Raptors logo.
the old team looked like to be built for fast break offence off defensive stops. And when the defence got injured that plan fell through. Also it seemed like Ham hoped to give bench players experience mid game to perhaps get some depth for the playofs. But that also didn't pan out. If thats the case how can JJ make a team built for one thing play an almost opposite strategy?
Man robs been in Vegas a few days now with gms for summer league. I don’t think anything’s gonna get done. I guess we better temper expectations as far as trades
Championship game of the in season tournament could replace one of the finalists' regular season matchups where the loser forfeits a home game against the IST champ. Another approach would be to count all games played so both finalists end with 83 regular season games. It rewards the tournament winner, but 2nd place would have an extra loss which could have major playoff implications at the end of the season.
The offense wasn't really the problem except for like a stretch in a game were we can't score for like 5 min. But more of a problem is our defense and rebounding
If the NBA really wants teams to buy-in to the in-season tournament, it has to give the team that wins the tournament some type of advantage in the end of season playoffs. I don't know what type of advantage would work, but I know who to turn to in order to figure it out. I'm going to put my man Keith Smith, the originator of the 2020 bubble tournament, on the job. 😄
Was so frustrating to watch the team to try hard to make buckets and too often did.the other team end up with some lob to even it out again. That's why the last series against Denver wasn't as frustrating and more competitive as the team made more less effort buckets themselves.
Hmmm….. so what happened to the Triangle offense. Just because Jackson and Tex Winter are no longer there doesn’t mean you can’t run it. Oh, I forgot you need players who can really understand how to run it and can constantly make shots.
The most important thing JJ said was about the stars buying in to the how he wants the offense to run. Our offense under Ham was pretty good, but obviously when a play was well defended, we were supposed to go to our motion offense, but LBJ preferred to play hero ball. This was especially the case late in big games. So I know AD is buying in, and D’lo took a few shots at Ham, implying that he just lets LBJ do whatever he wants on offense instead of run a system like the Kings, Nuggets, and Warriors do. I’m sure everyone on the Lakers is excited about the idea, because it implies less hero ball from LBJ, but is LBJ excited? Well LBJ always plays within the system for most of the game, but it seems like he just can’t help himself sometimes, and this is where we lost a decent amount of games in the 4th quarter. So for me, Ham did have a motion offense, but it didn’t matter when it counted, because LBJ did what he wanted. JJ holding LBJ accountable is the best thing he can do for not only our offense, but also our defense. When LBJ is playing the right way, we are very hard to beat.
I love running more actual plays now all JJ has to do is play the right young people ex Max Christie and Vando. That will easily give us 5 more wins than last season.
You realize how f’d we are. We are downslope with our stars, no draft picks really. The likelihood of AD and LBJ staying healthy like last year is remote. Rookie coach who got fast tracked. A roster spot wasted for at least the next 3 years. Btw, it’s hard to improve offense in today’s nba when you can’t shoot from outside.
That will nice to see, almost every time Lebron got the ball one on one the rest of the Lakers just stood around. Nobody drove to the basket to open up passing lanes.
If we don’t find another big to play alongside AD, none of this matters. We have never really replaced the McGee/Howard combo that helped us win a championship. We struggle against the taller teams and our FO refuses to acknowledge this.
J redick played like 17 seasons he has seen coaches and he knows the off the court stuff and the x ‘s and os, shoutout to all the people who keep saying he has no experience , EVERY COACH EVER WAS ONCE HIRED FOR THE FIRST TIME EVEN GREG popovich
JJ not wrong we couldnt hold a lead to save our lives we would lose a 20 pt lead and go into overtime, bron and ad rarely got blowout wins to rest in the 4th
I have no idea who runs Laker fandom, but they sure are forgetful. Lakers had one of the top offenses in the league in the second half. What they need is more defense, but you hire a offensive player as coach you get an offensive mentality and focus. Also you get more of the same 10-6th place finishes. Stupid is as stupid does.
If JJ wants his offense to have success early it starts with Dlo and making sure he remain a Laker. The things JJ want to run would fit Dlo perfectly and the team needs the shooting.
That's going to be the issue. And I don't trust Lebrons 3 point shooting. They need real shooters that are 3 and d like he's always needed. I mean the problem is he can't just pass it to himself all game.
The fact that yall expect a 40 year old to still be an all nba defender is really stupid. It’s been proven 2 years in a row that he saves his defense for the playoffs when it matters. When he needs to get a stop he does, I.E. Bron clamping Kawhi to clutch a win last season. Stop trying to find a reason to hate. Lol
Age 39 LeBron Defensive efficiency: 327th of 572 players (bottom 43% of the league) Damn near league average, I’d say that’s pretty damn great at 39. 🤷🏾♂️ Age 39 Jordan Defensive efficiency: 359th of 440 players (bottom 19% of the league) - MJ was downright sorry on defense, might as well have been a traffic cone yet y’all got the nerve to complain about LeBron 🤦🏾♂️ Age 37 Kobe Defensive efficiency: 462nd of 476 players (bottom 3% of the league) Kobe was an absolute shit can on defense, might as well been a 6th man for the other team yet y’all got the nerve to complain about LeBron 🤦🏾♂️ It just amazes me how y’all continue to hold LeBron to the highest of high standards even in his old age yet y’all never did that for any other player, not even the ones some of y’all falsely claim are better than him.
Silver is such a joke So many people literally hate the NBA now compared to before Lakers should have had a +1W For winning the tournament That’s what they deserved
That Clippers logo looks like a ship in the crosshairs of a sub. They should have rebranded with a complete name change. No good history associated with the LA Clippers. Vic the Brick rearranged a couple letters in the name decades ago when the team was plagued with injuries year after year and showed the name can become C-R-I-P-P-L-E-S.
JJ: ok, guys, this is what we're gonna do. Play fast, but in the half court, we run thru the whole playbook. Do what you know how to do, play loose. But when Boss...errr... Le..errr... Mr James is on the court, just give him the ball and let him pad those stats.
FINALLY!!! everyone will get a clue > that Lebron's "defense" IS "multi-dimensional" .. it's "strategic & mental .. common variables of having a high IQ .. THIS is exactly what Lebron means when he says, "he plays the right way" .. MIND the GAME podcast, showed us, that JJ completely understood THAT .. apparently "kyle kuzma" DID NOT ..
I fully support the idea of having offensive movvement, cuts and set plays like a professional basketball team.
You should support competency.
Itll be nice to get a big but We can run with this team up till trade deadline. We must trade for a big by trade line though. This team has everything you'd want. Ball handlers wings and one of the best bigs. Everyone just gotta play to their potential
I think Reddick as a shooter and Kerr as a shooter, share this thought. More movement for shooters, not just standing waiting in a corner.
The Lakers have terrible shooter's. I don't care how good Reddick is, the Lakers don't have good shooters. The Lakers might make the playoffs. Teams have been getting better in the off-season
Like seriously..that shitwe observed these past couple year's have been recreational level at best😤.💜💛🤍🖤

That's going to be the issue. And I don't trust Lebrons 3 point shooting. They need real shooters that are 3 and d like he's always needed. I mean the problem is he can't just pass it to himself all game.
The fact that yall expect a 40 year old to still be an all nba defender is really stupid. It’s been proven 2 years in a row that he saves his defense for the playoffs when it matters. When he needs to get a stop he does, I.E. Bron clamping Kawhi to clutch a win last season. Stop trying to find a reason to hate. Lol
Age 39 LeBron Defensive efficiency:
327th of 572 players (bottom 43% of the league) Damn near league average, I’d say that’s pretty damn great at 39. 🤷🏾♂️
Age 39 Jordan Defensive efficiency: 359th of 440 players (bottom 19% of the league) - MJ was downright sorry on defense, might as well have been a traffic cone yet y’all got the nerve to complain about LeBron 🤦🏾♂️
Age 37 Kobe Defensive efficiency: 462nd of 476 players (bottom 3% of the league) Kobe was an absolute shit can on defense, might as well been a 6th man for the other team yet y’all got the nerve to complain about LeBron 🤦🏾♂️
It just amazes me how y’all continue to hold LeBron to the highest of high standards even in his old age yet y’all never did that for any other player, not even the ones some of y’all falsely claim are better than him.
@@adh2298please continue to call out the foolery,love your comment who actually pays attention
@@user-id1gc6sl4n Appreciate it. The only way to defeat a hater’s lies and conspiracy theories is through actual statistical facts and logic. 😂
Silver is such a joke
So many people literally hate the NBA now compared to before
Lakers should have had a +1W For winning the tournament
That’s what they deserved
Who cares about the NBA cup when it doesn’t help us
the in-season tournament, IS part of the NBA ..
you're welcome to STAY left behind 😂
We can't be copying other teams
Trevor, I love you dearly, but you don’t have to say our old friend every time you talk about an X Laker it’s kind of annoying
Trade AR because he has hit his ceiling and DK is already better than him
Winning this cup mean O.
That Clippers logo looks like a ship in the crosshairs of a sub. They should have rebranded with a complete name change. No good history associated with the LA Clippers. Vic the Brick rearranged a couple letters in the name decades ago when the team was plagued with injuries year after year and showed the name can become C-R-I-P-P-L-E-S.
The random was Lebrons fault wanting the ball at the key calling his own sets he's nit blowing by anybody at this point in his career
Lakers make any moves yet??
Haters care more about winning in summer league than winning in-season tournament😂
you're right 😂🤣
Didn t Bronny play Trevor?
Not much to unluck
WHAT IS THE ADVANTAGE IN WINNING THE NBA CUP?????????
YEAH GET A REAL POINT GUARD AND KEEP THE BALL OUT OF BRONS HANDS AND PLAY SOME DEFENSE UNLOCK THE DAMN DEFENSE
To much plan but nothing happened at the end nothing deal to any team . That was Pelinka slow learning the NBA deal nada
JJ: ok, guys, this is what we're gonna do. Play fast, but in the half court, we run thru the whole playbook. Do what you know how to do, play loose. But when Boss...errr... Le..errr... Mr James is on the court, just give him the ball and let him pad those stats.
So basically, they are going to play like real team basketball.
Won't last with Lebron on the team.
No I don't like that draw the Lakers got
Lebron doesn't run sets! Good luck
Lebron can do EVERYTHING ..
No wonder Paul George look at that hideous logo 😂 Clippers doing clippers things 🤣
FINALLY!!!
everyone will get a clue > that Lebron's "defense" IS "multi-dimensional" .. it's "strategic & mental .. common variables of having a high IQ ..
THIS is exactly what Lebron means when he says, "he plays the right way" ..
MIND the GAME podcast, showed us, that JJ completely understood THAT ..
apparently "kyle kuzma" DID NOT ..
