$104 max plus he employed his son. I guess Lakers' focus this season is on the brand and tickets than actually winning.
You are the only person read the news correctly. LA knows they can’t compete in West so they went all in for marketing.
You don't know basketball
Yall bron haters got some serious mental issues 😂😂😂
Then if they try to recruit a superstar again you haters are going to say "look hes trying to build a superteam again to carry him to win a ring"
Average of $52m/year is not a super max. A super max is what Tatum just got (average $63m/year).
Dlo is the happiest person right now, they ain't gonna talk about him being traded for 2months lol
He'll be gone before the trade deadline.
Bronny taking he's spot😂
D lo really played well so the Lakers wouldn’t trade him to see what he could do in the playoffs just for him not to play well in the playoffs so no one would want him during the offseason. He’s an evil genius
@@datsapaddlinstop the cap. When he was needed the most in the playoffs he was nowhere to be found
@@datsapaddlin man had 0 points in a playoff game 😂
Tell me you're throwing in the towel.. without telling me 😂
Yup next 2 years is tanking time.

@MidnightTacoRun that's deep✍️👏
The Los Angeles Lakers today announced they are fully committed to being a joke for the next two seasons! Smfh
that's coming from you clown so don't watch and yet you're here? 🤡🤡
Right😂
So it's basically a one year/52 million deal.
It shows that nobody wanted to take the Lakers money to play with Lebron.
Or play with a coach that's never coached or a GM who s not doing great
Because you have the most expectations and lights on you when you play with Lebron, thats why Klay wanted to play somewhere he could just ball
Lakers are a joke ever since they signed his son 🗑️
@@comencme1 or all three😂
What? You’re crazy lebum is the best player ever😂😂😂😂, high IQ ( clearly can’t get other guys to join him), jj is the best coach in the league (lmfao). You’re crazy……
This is very likely Lebron's last NBA contract
Thank God.
You made a typo. You meant to right unlikely
3 more to go my guy. He’s playing until 45
That's a bit sad
Good😅
Bron said, " Give me my moNEY"!😂😂😂😂
He wasn't never gonna take a paid cut
@@DJ_-Well Klay didn’t want to come in LA or any of the FA targets so Bron is like good more money for me!
No Klay No Paycut
Excatly Rob had several targets he got Excatly zero of them
ROFL!!!!
Has it occurred to you that maybe he didn’t want to play with LeBron n Lakers? 😂
@@brendanwalsh826 He literally said it was between the Mavs or Lakers 😂. He just picked the better deal stop being messy lol
Lakers were never getting Klay ...the whole LeBron is taking a pay cut was propaganda to make LeLiar look better

Thank Lebron for that. Nobody wants to play with that fraud.
@@jacobmcklowski4428 fraud? who told you clown?
The Lakers were the 9th-10th best team in the West last year, and that was with LeBron and AD playing 70+ games
They won't be that healthy, two years in a row, at their age, and even if they were, they didn't get any better
And they have a new coach to deal with, so expect plenty of growing pains the first half of the year
The Lakers will only be noteworthy this season for their nepotism, and how many time Bronny can ride that bench.
You nailed it on the head
I think they were a top 3 team. I mean they had defending champs denver beat by 20 points in the first half the whole series. Thats gotta mean something.
@@user-gj6yb2qc7e Actually, it means nothing. The only reason they beat the Niggets once is the Nuggets got complacent and lazy. They got bored.
Noone wants to go to the Lakers to be a scapegoat again. They learned from Russ' experience. Harden, Klay and others are smart💯
Yup they did Russ hella dirty
Max contract for a 39 year old player in decline. LeBron owns this franchise.
Who's on a decline? Not goat James.
He should’ve taken a klay deal
He tried already, and they fumbled it. Blame Rob first
Nope tried that when bron made the Westbrook deal.. Failed Miserable
I thought players would want to play with LeBron tho ?????
@@soccer2095 Ummm...no.
Right. Like we are so stupid we don’t know Lebron running things over there. Even tho they drafted his son who was qualified to be in the NBA and hired the coach he wanted. Stfu

So he turns down a $51.4 million option and says he’s willing to take a cut to get someone to their roster and that didn’t work so he’s getting a extra $600k more for first year as $51.4 wasn’t enough lol
Short bus shorty
They didn't add anyone. FO fail.
Did they add anyone? No...then no pay cut
Owner isn't taking a payout and no big talent added. Pay the man that packs the seats then.
Why take a pay cut when they clearly wasnt getting anyone
Demar is waiting on the Clippers
He's going to want 4 years too
Demar should go to the Clippers to replace PG13
Lmao all that talk about a pay cut. Dude got a max deal instead😂😂😂
Because the lakers didn't sign anyone, so he took the max
@@Ikari0304Cause the Lakers front office is shitty 😂
You want to criticise dude for not giving up 20mil? Ok
Are you dumb. He took a Max cause they didn’t sign anybody

Miami

This shows you that players don't want to play with James smh. The Lakers never had a problem getting players to come there.
Not really. Lakers had plenty of slumps of not signing great players
Like AD right? Or Caruso? Or KCP? Or Russ? Bruh you already have your agenda but imma try anyway. You know why the Lakers couldn’t get Klay? Cause they never made a true offer. They told him "if you come we will offer you 18mil" that’s not an offer. If you want players you clear your cap and show them the money.
Also Bron declined his option to clear cap space and for the team to have money. But who did they sign?
Facts
Sir you should be less concerned with LeBron and more focused on getting a better barber or going completely bald
Expectations are to high when playing with lebron.. and the lights are to bright ,everyone can’t handle that pressure
How could a Front Office have AD & LBJ and for years u still dont know how to built a strong roster around them!! Are such bums and amatures, but delusional Lakers fanbase keep sleeping! 😑🤦
Work till 67, you gonna get full social security.
That means we're stuck with LeGM's BS for 2 more years. Been a Laker fan since i was 10 years old and I've never been more disappointed
3 years
@@arguseyed9982 it's a two year deal
Gotta make sure Bronny got his playing time😂😂
Thank goodness! That means I won’t be watching for another 2 years! Awesome 😎👍🏼
I hope Gabe Vincent, Christian Wood, and Vanderbilt stay healthy and ball out. If you think about it. With these guys back we are adding 3 guys to the roster this year. Lets Goooooooooooooooooooo!!!
Is this sarcasm?
Man this next season already pissing me off. As a die hard Laker fan, im not optimistic at all. Its looking like Lakers are heading to the dark years.
Lakers still think they can get passed Denver with that squad.
They know they can’t it’s for the fans now lol
might not have to play denver. denver has gotten worse as well. only team that's made strides to get better in the west is OKC. well...technically the grizzlies because people are getting healthy. but other than that who's gotten better in the west?
@@thetrib1 mavs? duh
@@thetrib1 the lakers still can’t beat Denver
Not just Denver. We're not getting past Minn, Dallas, OKC, Sacramento, the Clippers....
Not giving an almost 40 year a 100mil contract for TWO years is stupid even if it is LeBron
Bronny gonna be the starting Guard LOL 😂
They better start his boy or give him the most minutes off the bench or else Lakers will feel the wrath of clutch sports!
@@reignyell3614 well That's the plan of LeBron and Clutch that is why Reddick got hired no decent coach will play Bronny this year
So basically no championship for the Lakers for at least the next two seasons
Rob should be fired
I agreed Lakers should hired Bob Myers
You mean Lebron should be fired
Love people blaming a guy who has very little power and has to answer to Lebron and pulled of a amazing trade deadline in 2023 to turn the team around that season

If you're still a Lakers fan while Lesteroid James is currently there, you're tripping ‼️
Imagine saying you want to win a championship (with millions already in the bank) then turning around to sign this type of contract which completely hampers your team’s options..
Do you geeettt
That's really what happened though, because they couldn't get anyone on their list to join the team LOL. Lebron wasn't going to take a cut just to sign more bench players. He wanted to take a pay cut for an impact starter.
C’mon really? Have you been asleep the last several days? He told the FO he’d take less, much less ($20+M) if they could sign a noteworthy player. Pelinka got nothing done, and one by one, all the top free agents were signed by other clubs. They couldn’t even sign Valencuinus, who took less than the MLE. Lebron was clear…get someone good and I’ll take $20 million (let that amount sink into your head) less to help you make the deal work. The front office failed (again), so he took the max. Go be critical of someone else. Typical Lebron hater who goes off of emotion rather than facts.
Brown highest paid. Tatum then got more. Dumb take
Nobody wanna play wit Bron
I thought he was gonna say "Just 6 days after drafting Bronny James, Lebron has signed a new deal!" 😂😅
WOW.. that's the highest father-son duo contract ever.. well deserved Bronny.
He couldve done the funniest thing and said Cleveland im coming home and left bronny in LA 🤣
LeSalty by not taking a paycut.
Daam. Last time LeBron passed on DeMar, Russell Westbrook was getting booed at home games while DeMar was starting for the allstar game. Not saying he’s still that but he’s never had the benefit of being the third option and one could only imagine all the open mid range shots he would’ve been splashing. Plus he lead the league in mins last year and everybody knows LeBron and AD ain’t playing no 82. You can forget that. Also DeMar is good in the 4th which we also know the Lakers desperately need. He would’ve been good with Bronny like he was with Ayo, especially with Bonny looking to separate himself a little bit. Now besides his dad, who can he chop it with… DLo snitching as? Austin Reeves? C’mon. And just the motivation DeMar would’ve gotten by being home in LA would’ve definitely been a benefit. Not DeMar’s #1 fan but I know he’s a good dude and I know he could’ve helped the Lakers out. Definitely as much as Klay, if not even more. Might not hit 3’s but he’s definitely more consistent. He definitely wouldn’t be getting benched. Just saying. Now I hope he goes to the Clippers just to see how it would play out.
Remember the Lakers did the same at the end of Kobe career ...gave him 25mil just to keep the seats filled
This might be the dumbest comment yet. Kobe who I'm a massive fan of wasn't any good his last few years. Bron just made all nba
They gave it to him… Bron still playing at a high level so he’s earning it.. Kobe was trash his last years he’s overrated anyways 💯
@@wilhelm4321uhm except Kobe had the most missed shots in the NBA 😂 yes missed
Buddy makes short bus comments all over espn. Get some help lil bro
@@memo5230 I guess there is no need to guard him then?
No trade clause plus player option in year 2 of a 2 year Max deal is crazy work. It's like the Lakers don't care about having any options or power over their own roster. Good luck JJ!
We winning it all this season adding JJ will be game changer
🤣🤣🤣
Winning In Season Tournament you mean? 😅
You can’t really believe that they gone be getting cooked
@user-zu2ri4ki6l i think we have talent to do that,also we got to WCF without a coach basically so if JJ builds a great system we have everything to win
@@Ttt23594 what talent?
Lakers used to be really good during offseason signing free agent. These days, they are known for signing inexperience coach and drafting most hyped up 2nd round pick.
Where's the paycut?
He is worth the money. He has earned it. I wish more money was available when Mike and past legends played be because they could have received the same financial reward.
The last 2 years of his career will be interesting.
This is why Tim Duncan is the GOAT, because when all the other players pretend about winning, Duncan actually sacrificed his own wealth to win more titles. Something Lebron would never really do
This guarantees that they're a play in team, at best
"This team isn't going to be able elevate this roster" ...."yeah but you still have LeBron James though" 😅😅😅 The ignorance & Idiocy smh. I can't wait until LeBron leaves the Lakers. It's been hard rooting for my team
Then they ain’t your team bro lol.
@@KRM85 what??
Bron has got Jeannie out of her vase. Bron be in her don't be amazed.
It's going to take a miracle for the lakers to win
Overpay Lakers did the same with Kobe…obviously they didn’t learn
This isn’t Kobe buddy. LeFraud James
Kobe was winning championships, LeGM is tanking the franchise
Lakers is a horrible franchise since Jerry Buss kids took over the team
This is what the Lakers do; they show loyalty to their stars. Other stars see this which allows the Lakers to reload for contention every handful of years. Obviously YOU didn't learn.
@mushshrap6471 this isn't loyalty, this is prioritizing lebron's jersey sales over winning championships and running a successful franchise
LeBron clearly doesn't care about winning. That's the difference between Brady and LeBron, Brady would've signed for 30 million giving the team 20 million to add another good player.
So all the money for Lefail?
4 championships over 20 all nba and all star selections. 8 time all defense. 4 mvps and 4 finals mvps. What have you accomplished?

They just simply hate LeBron. All facts and logic go out the window for them.
Lebron and Rich Paul now working on getting Bryce and Savannah on the roster for next year.
The king is back 👑
i think he waited to see if the lakers ofifce signed a great player before he signed that max deal..on the other hand, $50+ million a yr is insane..if i owned the lakers i would of let him go and get 2 maybe 3 players who can put up somewhat similiar numbers at a lower cost
40 years old and still getting max contracts🐐if he’s not the goat I don’t know who is
MJ duh
Thank u
My sucked as he got older and tried to come back
Oldest player and still Flopping , he ain’t GOAT
MJ. And Im a die hard laker fan at that. Face it, Lebron is special... But MJ is the greatest of all time. Also, I'm happy for anyone that gets 100 mill contract. Guy deserves it whether you like him or not. Its business. But MJ is the goat.
Insane! Then Lakers want to sign Derozan for 3/35k
Max deal. Smh.
Lebron can opt out next year and sign a bigger max deal with the new CBA and higher salary cap space
LeBron signs max contract at near 40 and got his son drafted

Glad it's only a two year deal. Would've been better if it was only 1 year
It is only one he will opt out next year or retire

1 year with Bryce 🍿

Congratulations LeBron 👑🐐
Deal includes a “do as i say” clause.
Breaking news,nobody's coming to play with team LeBron 😅😅😅
why are they paying this dude the max?
So I guess they weren't able to find another player to sign with the Lakers.
One last NBA championship run with the Lakers for Lebron. Well, you have your son on your team so good luck!!!
LeBron was already in one “Trainwreck,” this one will be far more entertaining to watch 😂
This is NOT breaking news. Draft his son, you get him. Another year of misery for the Lakers.
ruclips.net/video/jHzj8Ff2z2Y/видео.htmlsi=FDiIdsUBaYx-h6I- SHOW ❤
Declining his player option to sign a team friendly deal costing the team 600k more a year should really help bring in some reinforcements
He’s holding that last year off for wherever Bryce goes. He’s already in the GOAT debate which no player can ever be considered the aggregates but it can’t be taken away either…
He’s simply in now for his sons, not accolades, but he is a competitor.
I really thought we’d land derozan
I did, too. DeRozan wanted to be there. That window may have closed, though.
He probably trying go to the Clippers he tight with James Harden
Nobody, as a third option, wants to play with him. Thompson gone to the Mavs, harden still with the clippers. Another play in finish
So happy for LeBron the longevity of this man is nothing short of amazing. Have fun playing with your son Bronny you deserve it King 👑
Lebron chose money over winning. Noway he is winning another championship in LA
ESPN is so biased towards the Lakers they have its coach on their RUclips channel’s banner.
Kyrie Irving chose Dallas over LA.
Klay Thompson chose Dallas over LA.
LeBron tried to recruit both Kyrie and Klay to LA, but there’s one common denominator: stars don’t want to play with LeBron James.

This is poor reporting, The Lakers can still get DeRozan, they need to get a 3rd team and that team is the Pistons. They can send DLo out to the pistons in a sign and trade and get DeRozan back from the Bulls. They will need to match another 6-8M to stay at the same 2nd Apron level. So a deal isn't dead the question is do they send Austin or Rue out in the deal.
Derozan can’t shoot the 3 and will clog up the mid with AD and LBJ , not a good fit
@@ThePharcyde13 People have to stop looking at the 3, Austin, DLo, and Gabe are not solid 3 point shooters and 2 of them are limited more on Defense then Demar.

We just need a real center honestly so AD can roam.
Well he at least tried to take less to get another guy. But when all the guys are gone you may as well take the bag 😂
Man go sign Dwight or Boogie and they will be fine
So much for that pay cut to bring in better talent
This happens when a player is the ring leader of a circus! They needed a veteran head coach that commands respect.
Ironically, LeBron has rarely ever had a veteran coach his entire career. He always has some young unproven coach on his team that will bend the knee. It's no coincidence.
