The Caruso decision is unforgivable absolute garbage front office.
a TH-cam channel focused on the Lakers. I'm all in!
Just what we need! A channel dedicated to one of the most mid teams in the league before Bron retires and you go back to being bottom feeders. PERFECT!
I’ll never forgive Solomon Hill 💔
One of the worst days of watching sports I can remember 😢
😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊@@MapleRoadHoops
Weirdo behavior
This is all his fault lmao
He knew what he was doing. We could of gone back to back 😢 thats if AD didnt get hurt either
Was genuinely shocked this hasn’t got more views considering how well edited it is
Thank you so much 🙏
Looking forward to this channel’s growth
this video is edited so good & well made i went to subscribe & was surprised to see only 26 subs, keep going you already have good quality content
Thank you for the kind comment. Just started this channel but will be posting more videos like this!
@@MapleRoadHoops whatever you do with this channel i’m tuned in for sure
Nah this video's insane, easily on your way to a 100k sub channel
Thank you!
Great production. Keep up the great quality friend
Cavs were up 2-1 in 15 before losing to GSW
Darn it, that’s what I meant to say my bad!
really good vid bro, you deserve way more subs
Thank you! Will be posting more videos like this.
How do you barely have any subscribers this was a good ass video
Just started the channel! Thank you so much for the comment, hopefully this can be the beginning of a nice journey.
Love the video bro love the channel plz don’t stop 💯
Thank you and I won’t, got lots of videos lined up!
If there’s ONE thing I’ve learnt as a Lakers fan over the past 4 years, it’s that this front office is GOD awful. The amount of talent that were traded for pennies on the dollar while Rob Palenka sat behind his desk eating twinkies and flirting with the boss is absolutely ridiculous. Here’s just a few to name them:
Demar Derozan, Paul George (TWICE), Kawhi Leonard, Kyrie Irving, Jonas Valanciunas, Klay Thompson, Kevin Durant, Damian Lillard, Buddy Hield, Chris Paul, DeJounte Murray, Alex Caruso, etc.
The list goes on and on and on and on and those are just SOME examples that Rob has missed entirely across TWO seasons. He needs to do SOMETHING. There are currently, I believe, 6 rebuilding teams with assets that I (as a Lakers fan) would WANT to help win a ring.. and Rob’s response to that knowledge was an absolute nobody from Toronto.
Bro omg Im thinking you have a lest over 10k subs wow this video was crazy ima subscribe keep it the good work this year this year
Thank you and will do!
The really chose THT over Caruso 😩
Would be hype if you investigated the 'young Lakers'-whether the organization actually did a good job of developing their picks (DLo, Ingram, THT, etc) OR if they should have traded away the 2018 core for Anthony Davis instead of waiting a year for him to come in free agency.
This channel is gonna be huge man trust. W vid 🤘🏾
Thank you!
Bro he forgot one key detail lakers could’ve kept that same roster from 2020 with Caruso and in the off season they wanted to compete with the nets all they had to do was wait another week and BOOM DEMAR DEROZAN IS A LAKER SHIT MAKE NO SENSE THEY WERE THE BEST DEFENSE TEAM THE NETS REALLY WASNT AN ISSUE FOR THEM THE RUSS TRADE WAS SO DUMB
Blame Jeanie Buss. She signed off on everything.
I started watching basketball in 2020, and im from California so lakers was a natural choice for my fav team. I loved russ in la I genuinely feel like if they kept caruso and Schroder that first russ year and bron n ad didn’t get injured they would’ve been amazing. Most People forget russ was averaging 18/7/7 yes russ has always had a below average 3pt shot, but a backcourt or him and Caruso would’ve been an amazing fit. Caruso doesn’t need the ball in his hands to be impactful his defense is Elite and his shoot he spaces the floor. I still dont get why they let him walk knowing they were bringing in a guy who lets face it couldn’t space the floor consistently.
This is still a very painful topic to discuss 💔
Here at 92 subs. You about to blow up. Keep it up. Good content bro
Thank you my friend! Here’s to hoping 🙏
Short answer: Don’t fix what isn’t broken.
Great video man! Got yourself a new sub. ✊
Thank you so much!
Here as the 66th subscriber, before this channel blows up 📈
Thank you! 🙏
subscribed bro great edit
Lakers turned themselves from a legendary lifelong favorite to the most hated team in the league in this one move, no matter what all the paid klutch media say. Lebron is anathema to real winning basketball
No he not stop it y’all just live to hate for no reason
The title of the video should be "Why Lebron traded players from the Bubble Chip?"
He didnt goofy
@@Ejp23_ He's the GM clown!
@@delconagher12yall really believe that
@NNOutBurger_Gaming Lebron has traded the most players in the NBA. More than any GM in history. Wtf are you clowning about? You want some honey to glaze Lebron?
@@delconagher12 How can a player trade another player. Only GMs have that power. Are you saying LeBron is the first active nba player and GM in league history?
Great video! You’re going to be big time don’t forget me homie
Thank you so much 😭🙏
How’d they go 13-3 in the next 26games? That math don’t math
The Lakers have had the worst Front Office in sports for the past…maybe 15 years. We lucked out getting LeBron, and AD deciding to join him. But the problems we had-the problems that killed our chances of getting Kobe a competitive roster late in his career-remained still.
We won a chip, then decided to go for a retool by gaining two guys that we didn’t need, and one which was just a horrible fit. Complete identity change, but it still kinda worked.
So then we get injured all year in 2021 and it causes us to lose in the first round. Okay no problem-except the Lakers FO decided to blow it up including trading for Russell Westbrook and letting Caruso walk for Luxury Tax money.
We have the worst year possible, and we fire our championship head coach the next year because he couldn’t make Russ work. On a Lakers team with LeBron James.
Who do we trade for? The worst coach in the NBA m, as he would prove to be.
What was so impactful about that shot
Great video!
Thank you!
Here before this blows up
Thank you 🥲
I thought the thumbnail was investigating LeBron saying ain’t no party like a Diddy party !!
You just have to say no
Lakers win title in 21 if not for Davis getting hurt
Great video I feel like the tittle should be how the lakers destroyed a championship team
Great suggestion
Where is the actual investigation?
Here's the thing they were actually better in 2021 injuries just happened
LeGM did
Kobe Bryant all day
The triple towers was nice to have too, someone always had a big defensive night (mcgee howard davis,) and kept a fresh presence in the paint, many nights they threw a block party.
so sad we got rid of that squad man
Luol Deng contract F*ck up the Lakers.
Coz it was a fluke and they knew it.
i think the answer here was THT
Lediddy did it
LeBron James
Dont know how anyone blames Russ, AD and Lebron where always injured then. They only played like 40 games together in total.
i cant watch this bro imma cry
LeBron is a bad GM..lol bron thinks superstars is going to get it done - we are no longer in that era anymore and great role players are not going there for league minimum contracts just to "win" or play for LeBron
Yall determined to believe LeBron wants to lose on purpose.
@@poly_g6068 negative. I just think lebron don’t know what’s best for him regarding personnel. The last team he won with they should’ve kept and replace the players with similar attributes. 3 Bigs that can defend joker. And a bunch of 3 and D guys
@@poly_g6068These LEBRON JAMES Haters Say The Dumbest Shit and Really Believe It's Intelligent 😫😏🤷🏿♂️
Trueee Wee All Know Hee's Noooo Michael Jordan 'Wilt Magic'' Kareem " & Thaay r Horribly With LeBron James &Thee Reason People Calling Him Names Like Lebum Lemoron & Lechokes & Because of Thaat Him Not Playing on A Higher Level & Does Not Know How Too Lead Any Other Team Seriously !!!
The bald mamba, so many hype moments. Big time player.
2017 lakers could prolly get a ring in 3-4 run 2 squads with lonzo ball1 2kcp 3🐐caruso 4josh hart5 Julius Randal 1 jordan clarckson 2brandon ingram 3kuz4larry nance 5 zubac (Brooke Lopez I guess u could have splash mountain but he’s prolly gonna retire soon)
so basically injuries ruined the team, not that "moment" where lebron celebrated after a 3. If AD didnt get injured in the 21 playoffs they would have made a deeper run and most likely kept the team together. I mean they were up 2-1 and looking like they were gonna win the series on the team that eventually went to the finals.
I think the point is had the Lakers not traded for Schroeder they would have had Danny Green and all those trades after wouldn't have happened. Because Schroeder wouldn't have been there to have a bad playoff versus the Suns and thus having Green who would have preformed better than Schroeder did in the game AD got hurt. So yes that moment with Schroeder and LeBron wouldn't have happened because Schroeder wouldn't have been there.
If Schroeder wasn't there then the need to replace him because we declined the extension. So with Schroeder wanting to get paid in free agency there wouldn't have been a need to trade for a starting calibur PG and thus no WestBrook trade and getting rid of KCP, Kuz and Harrell.
AD WAS PUTTING UP MONSTER NUMBERS AND PERFORMANCES VS SUNS CENTER AYTON AT THE TIME IN THAT 2021 PLAYOFF SERIES UNTIL HE TORE UP HIS GROIN!
@@msshyskye1 danny green was not gonna perform better than anyone he had a absolute meltdown in the 2020 finals and was the reason the series didn’t end in 5 games instead of 6. Anyways like i said regardless of schroeder if the lakers made a deeper run in the 2021 playoffs which they would’ve done without INJURIES than they most likely wouldn’t have made any moves. They felt the need to make the move because of the injuries so they needed a 3rd star. The one point in this video that was actually kinda right
@@johnnyguitarwatson5288 yea the suns were going home in 5 games, 6 absolute max if AD played. I’d say that healthy lakers team would’ve went back to back
