This shows that Russell Westbrick is not the only problem with the Lakers! Westbrook is the scapegoat! But the Lakers problems are bigger than Westbrook! 😭😤😱
AD is the next guy up. He's supposed to be the franchise piece by now not LeBron. it's AD fault. LeBron who's "old" old should NOT be outscoring him and outrebounding AD who is taller, longer and as quick. Ad never had games like this before he married that white woman... She neutered him.

Well last two times they played Portland with Russ and either bron or AD they won so nah without Russ it’s even less firepower been trying to tell people Russ inadequately forced shots because others around him don’t know how to get their own points except monk…. They stand around and watch so Russ and bron have to make plays AD is sometimy
You shall shut up if you are not a Lakers fan, do you watch our games ? Russ has a lot bad games on both ends. I can count the good games that He had, like 5 only all season and the rest, a catastrophy. The team is a mess and Russ is also another problem as well.
Everyone is so quick to blame a 33 year old Russ but the real reason their not gonna win this season is because AD. At age 28 in his physical prime he just doesn’t know how to impose his will throughout the entire game and when he tries to put his max effort he ends up getting injured. Still can’t believe they put him in Top 75 over Dwight.
People say Lebron's playing great but is he really? In a lot of these games, Bron's been out there when the game is over trying to get his 30. He's second in the league in fast break points and is losing to teams that are honestly horrible. These blazers just got beat by 25 by the MAGIC and then turn around and beat Lebron and AD. The problem's were always bigger than Russ. The media just made him the scapegoat.
LeRating trying average 30 points every game like the real GOAT Michael Jordan. LeRating usually scores 27 points per game .The difference between Jordan and LeRating is Jordan don't care about stats. He only care about wins. LeRating cares about padding his stats. 4-6 LeBum trying to overtake Kareem in career in points. If the team is struggling Jordan would put 50 a night. LeRating can't do it.

Proof Russ isn't the problem. Westbrook needs to handle the ball whwn all three are on court. If lebron played as a power forward traditionally they could turn it around.
Westbrick is a huge problem but the main problem is they have 6-7 guys starting or playing heavy rotation minutes that would be racking up DNP-CD’s on just about any other team. Avery Bradley got cut from the Warriors and is starting. Stanley Johnson got cut from the Raptors yet he’s a top player on this team. Those two and THT, Reaves, Dwight, Ariza would barely be getting minutes on any other team, but they’re the Lakers main guys. That’s the problem. Should have traded Kuz, Trezz and KCP for some better rotational players instead of Russ’s bloated contract and awful shooting and ball-handling.
Yep put AD as the center and Russ as PG Malik Monk SG and Lebron James either SF or PF on the high or low post and he can still be the point guard just like how Jokic is LBJ don’t have to handle the ball to be the true PG just get the ball in the post read the defence and facilitate or score, This is why I miss Kobe because Lebron loves dancing around the 3 point line and Kobe don’t care who bringing up the ball he’s getting to his spots and demanding for the ball, This is the difference between dancing around the court rather than picking your spots
Lebron really scored 25…he scored 5 meaningless points at the end. He cherry-picked a layup and took a three when it was time to just hold the ball and wait for the time to expire. 🤦🏻♂️

I don’t even wanna hear these excuses bc the way Skip & Shannon have made it seem…just get rid of Russ and this team will start winning. Yet no Russ and they lost to the Blazers without CJ or Dame 🤣🤣🤣. The way the media has been killing Russ they should have been a whole new team last night…how did they have all those TOs I thought that was Russ? Where was the defense? Where was the energy? Russ is so demoralizing playing without him should have ignited them right? This loss just goes to show how terrible this TEAM is.
Lakers are not going anywhere even if they trade Westbrook. After the season it's time to clean house the LeBron general manager experiment is a failure.
LeBron since getting 25-30 points hasn't been playing any type of defense he's literally saving all his energy for offense & most of these Lakers L's his defensive effort could've helped
@@xxmaskedupjayxx3006 We all no AD isn't aggressive & I honestly believed he struggled because Russ wasn't there people 🤡 Russ for missing layups but his missed layups have been very easy put backs for AD because Russ is drawing 2-3 defenders at the rim
@@huntersartin I'm not asking him to sit down on guys like he use to that's crazy but in that drop coverage scheme EVERY TEAM IS DOING NOW😪 he is suppose to challenge the 4's & 5's he's checking up top but they often get open 3pt shots or easy drives on him
It’s almost like a team that doesn’t move much on either side, atleast slower, had a compensating spark plug that forced action but had no other choice at times . Pace of play slows, rebounding slows, outlets slow…Thus when said spark plug is missing, another fills the role and it shows in their play. Russ was hiding a symptom of the Lakers. He isn’t the disease. Been saying this for months.
@@doctoraugustuskwembe most of it is effort and they have players who have egos who’s definitely not going to change. They just ball watch and stand. (Bron, Westbrook, Melo. Ariza Bradley are old I’ll give you that. But when Bron doesn’t play defense, all everyone can do is just try to switch until the other team gets by them due to him just standing in place. And they have little guards. Team defense is trash
As I said before… Russ or no Russ, they are still a thrash team. They just tend to lose more with Russ playing. The Lakers lost to the Blazers who are missing just about everyone. 🤣
“Then tend to lose more with Russ playing” as shown last night they lose no matter who is playing. And Russ has only missed 1 game so that’s just a re re statement.
Giannis Antetokounmpo really set the new trend. Superteams are broken now that both KD and Bron tried to get too fancy. Homegrown built teams are back to running the NBA, and the only relevance these failed superteams have is media.

I assure you, Skip doesn't think that lol the team wasn't losing because Russ was playing, the team was losing because Russ' acquisition made the whole team imbalanced. They blew up the team and created a mess expecting Lebron to always be the PG.
No Russ and they still hd 21 turnovers and played no defense. Who's the scapegoat now? AD didn't take a shot in the fourth. I would trade Davis because you can get 2 great pieces for him. Lost to. Bunch of backups.
NBA is trash! players have way too much power. if players don't get their way, they fake injuries or turn into drama queens. look at J Harden - was in Houston (played with howard, paul and westbrook and all got traded away) then he wanted out of houston and was excited to go to Nets and less than 60 games played he wanted out of Brooklyn too. that hamstring will miraculously improve in 24 hours.

@@everythingloveurlife4904 Let me school you since your basketball IQ is below average. The lower seeds teams benefited from playing in the bubble because the high ranked teams like the Lakers and others didn't get that chance in the playoffs to play on their home court and you and I know that having a home court advantage helps you win. Your crowd can get you going but in the bubble all the teams were equals, no home court advantage. Who cares if other dumb Lakers fans and you don't consider the bubble. It was mentally challenging for all the players.
Blows me away that there’s this many segments about an awful team. If this wasn’t a team with LeBron on it then they wouldn’t even make the news cycle smh. Can only listen to these guys talking about how awful the lakers are so many times before it gets annoying
I'm a Lakers fan but this team is pathetic and disgraceful. When Skip and Shannon calls out the Portland backups you know it's a problem. They can't use Westbrook as an excuse because he was out last night. Once they got Westbrook I knew that wasn't gonna work.
It’s hard being a die hard Lakers fan right now. This season reminds me of the team with Robert Sacre, Jeremy Lin, Wesley Johnson, and Xavier Henry. Painful times then and painful now.
This prolly worse considering all the names on the floor. On paper and at one point was considered title contenders. The same squad is struggling to make the playoffs. LeBron just too nice of a guy. Easy to tell the difference between him and Kobe. Clear as day.
You Bron fans should be embarrassed to call that dude your favorite player after he missed a layup and was cherry-picking only to still lose the game and Bron is number one in turnovers that’s why he does that ignorant things cause his fans still represent him when he is not helping the team
What a bunch of fake Lakers. Disrespecting Kobe's house. Lebron, AD, Russ all undeserving of wearing the purple and gold. Excuse making, no heart, no sacrifice
That's the problem with living in LA for these athletes. They want the big city and fame but don't realize it's always gonna take hard work regardless of where you're at.
@@tdup191 that's all fine but let's talk about how he influenced the trade for westbrick to try to influence everyone he can win with him. Love bron and easily a top 3 or 5 player all time, but he's trying too hard to be the best in everything to cloud his collapses in the past. But failed to realize this recent collapse of getting probably the worst PG in terms of decision making and TO in the game. But let's gloss over that and put the blame on the coach who won with them 2 years ago lol
You’re dumb dude that team sucks without Lebron lakers are trash even with AD and Russ Bron should dip and go back to the cavs with people who actually want to play defense and quit relying on Lebron to win games it’s sad I watched all the games if you don’t watch every game and see what I see an want to blame Lebron you’re dumb yes he’s to blame at times but the guy is 37 years old he can’t be carrying Teams he’s not 30
As a Laker fan since 1987. I'm beyond disappointed in their effort. We have too many weak minded players on the team. We need to go young. We need to go young. Shoulda never traded out young players. Thanks Pelinka and Lebron. You brought embarrassment to the Lakers.

Those two and THT, Reaves, Dwight, Ariza would barely be getting minutes on any other team, but they’re the Lakers main guys. That’s the problem. Should have traded Kuz, Trezz and KCP for some better rotational players instead of Russ’s bloated contract and awful shooting and ball-handling.
Can you really say from one game that Russ isn’t a problem?
Yep put AD as the center and Russ as PG Malik Monk SG and Lebron James either SF or PF on the high or low post and he can still be the point guard just like how Jokic is LBJ don’t have to handle the ball to be the true PG just get the ball in the post read the defence and facilitate or score, This is why I miss Kobe because Lebron loves dancing around the 3 point line and Kobe don’t care who bringing up the ball he’s getting to his spots and demanding for the ball, This is the difference between dancing around the court rather than picking your spots
Absolutely Not💀
He still is a huge problem. Lol. Just because there are other problems don’t mean he’s mot a problem all of a sudden. You just want attention 😂
Not being able to blame Russ has Shannon steaming lmao
The crazy part is the Lakers got blown out with lebron and AD playing and Russ was out
They played horrible but blown out ? they didn’t get blown out lol
Shannon has no excuses now 😭
Lebron really scored 25…he scored 5 meaningless points at the end. He cherry-picked a layup and took a three when it was time to just hold the ball and wait for the time to expire. 🤦🏻♂️
@Michael Martin nah he’s bush league,get off your knees peasant
LeBron is not the goat! They made Russ the scapegoat, but the whole team is just BAD!🤷🏾♂️
Did Jordan dominate when he was on the Wizards?
@@JWFitness1 he was 38-40 on bad knees giving 75% effort on a trash team unlike LeHGH who’s on PEDs with a talented team who he can’t make work in a no defense top heavy league with a lot of GLeague teams in it
@@Ninjersey1 I didn't know it was lebron's job to make these grown men work. Isn't that what coaches are for?
So it's lebron's fault AD gets hurt every week and plays below his potential?
@@Ninjersey1 PEDs? 💀

2:31 “ Ask me another one” 😂😂😭😭
Once I heard about LA losing to Portland, I was already thinking about what Shannon and Skip had to say about this.
Lmao Shannon ain’t being a comedian now that he can’t make fun of Russ 😂😂. I don’t even wanna hear these excuses bc the way Skip & Shannon have made it seem…just get rid of Russ and this team will start winning. Yet no Russ and they lost to the Blazers without CJ or Dame 🤣🤣🤣. The way the media has been killing Russ they should have been a whole new team last night…how did they have all those TOs I thought that was Russ? Where was the defense? Where was the energy? Russ is so demoralizing playing without him should have ignited them right? This loss just goes to show how terrible this TEAM is.
With Russ they won 2 games against the Portland but without him they lost by 30 😭💀
They’ve said they are bad without Russ everyday. He just is the main contributor to every singe one of the problems. They still better without him.
PREACH PREACH fr. These delusional fans out here fell for the narrative that its all russ fault fr 🤣
👀
Lakers will be lucky to make the play-in now 💯💯💯
If we do make it we get swept by phoenix suns lakers need to get it together
Lebron's 4th missed playoffs for his career. 😭😭
👀
It just shows that it wasn't Russ faults the Lakers are strugling. It's just that they are lossing due to lack of defense and consistency.
👀
Lakers are not going anywhere even if they trade Westbrook. After the season it's time to clean house the LeBron general manager experiment is a failure.
LeBron since getting 25-30 points hasn't been playing any type of defense he's literally saving all his energy for offense & most of these Lakers L's his defensive effort could've helped
@@xxmaskedupjayxx3006 We all no AD isn't aggressive & I honestly believed he struggled because Russ wasn't there people 🤡 Russ for missing layups but his missed layups have been very easy put backs for AD because Russ is drawing 2-3 defenders at the rim
@@huntersartin I'm not asking him to sit down on guys like he use to that's crazy but in that drop coverage scheme EVERY TEAM IS DOING NOW😪 he is suppose to challenge the 4's & 5's he's checking up top but they often get open 3pt shots or easy drives on him
@@huntersartin he dnt even try u can’t compare 😂😂
...he's 37.
@@huntersartin Tim Duncan was all defensive 2nd team at the age of 36 and 38, so you're wrong
0:48 “ AD was there I couldn’t tell if he was there” 😂😂😂😂😂
It’s almost like a team that doesn’t move much on either side, atleast slower, had a compensating spark plug that forced action but had no other choice at times . Pace of play slows, rebounding slows, outlets slow…Thus when said spark plug is missing, another fills the role and it shows in their play. Russ was hiding a symptom of the Lakers. He isn’t the disease. Been saying this for months.
What do you expect, the team is old ASF, dinosaur team.
@@doctoraugustuskwembe most of it is effort and they have players who have egos who’s definitely not going to change. They just ball watch and stand. (Bron, Westbrook, Melo. Ariza Bradley are old I’ll give you that. But when Bron doesn’t play defense, all everyone can do is just try to switch until the other team gets by them due to him just standing in place. And they have little guards. Team defense is trash
@@doctoraugustuskwembe Russ style is bad for old and slow team, on wizards, it was fun with the young players
Russ would be a perfect fit in some areas with the bucks
@@The-Heart-Will-Testify Fax
Last night we found out Russ ain't the only problem
I bet they going blame Russ...
As I said before… Russ or no Russ, they are still a thrash team. They just tend to lose more with Russ playing. The Lakers lost to the Blazers who are missing just about everyone. 🤣
Russ only missed 1 game this whole season and you knew they sucked without him nice dude.
I mean they haven't won without russ
“Then tend to lose more with Russ playing” as shown last night they lose no matter who is playing. And Russ has only missed 1 game so that’s just a re re statement.
The last two times they played blazers Russ played and they won two straight with Russ and AD or bron leading in productivity
You A 🤡. They’re 0-1 Without Russ, and 0-3 If You Count The Games He Got Benched
Giannis Antetokounmpo really set the new trend. Superteams are broken now that both KD and Bron tried to get too fancy. Homegrown built teams are back to running the NBA, and the only relevance these failed superteams have is media.
Giannis the real King exposed the league's enchantment with super teams that are full of divas and are entitled.
the bucks aren't homegrown
Fraudianis is a no skill joke and will never win anything again. He's trash, everyone knows it, his shoes are rotting in the bottom of Walmart bargain bins.
NO NO NO SHANNON. KEEP THE ENERGY LIKE YIU HAD YESTERDAY PLEASE DO.
So who will the lakers fans blame now since westbrook didn’t play and they still lost
That is 44 million of salary that could have been spent elsewhere. The rest of the team is two stars and a bunch of g league players
@@binilgn5941 Cool blame Russ. Way to go! Couldn't be LeBaby ok'ed every person on the roster that had no chance of ever working. That didn't have anything to do with it. But it's easier to Blame Russ even if he didn't play. Weak dude very weak. You keep thinking this terrible roster would work even if Russ wasn't there.
Point is LAKER are trash having WESTBRICK makes it worst. 😩🤦🏾♂️
@@larrylindgren9484 dude russ is just 33% the rest is team that plays no d like the other guy said 44 million salary u can get 5 good players for that so...
Y’all noticed how they didn’t go in on AD like they did russ.
They literally said this loss is on LeBron and AD ...
Ad have 5 blocks 6 assists And shot 71%

Russ was never the problem lmao I’ve been saying it’s AD
Love it when Shannon gets real and gives it to them! Want to see more of that!!!
This was a humiliating defeat, simple as that
Shannon said: "No Dame, No CJ. And a bunch a guys that's just happy to...they just happy." 😂😂😂
"Who the heck is CJ Elleby?" 🤣🤣🤣
LeBron is statpadding all game long. Dude is not even top 20 anymore.
Scoring is stat padding now do you even know what it means???💀

@@aspectv3943 is scoring a stat that can be recorded on a pad?
@@ItsBlazeVibes are you mad little bronsexual?
Shannon & Skip so delusional they really thought just removing Russ was gone = a Lakers win by 20+ 😂😂 just goes to show these guys are entertainers not sports analyst.
I assure you, Skip doesn't think that lol the team wasn't losing because Russ was playing, the team was losing because Russ' acquisition made the whole team imbalanced. They blew up the team and created a mess expecting Lebron to always be the PG.
They don’t watch games they just pick parts certain parts of the game and just watch the box scores lol
👀
While I agree to some points raised about Lakers' play, how about give the Blazers some credit as well?
No Russ and they still hd 21 turnovers and played no defense. Who's the scapegoat now? AD didn't take a shot in the fourth. I would trade Davis because you can get 2 great pieces for him. Lost to. Bunch of backups.
better trade lebron this summer. build around AD, keep westbroke.
NBA is trash! players have way too much power. if players don't get their way, they fake injuries or turn into drama queens. look at J Harden - was in Houston (played with howard, paul and westbrook and all got traded away) then he wanted out of houston and was excited to go to Nets and less than 60 games played he wanted out of Brooklyn too. that hamstring will miraculously improve in 24 hours.
@@MMM-ng6gi lebron started all this things and to much money given to this players.. more money this players have more power they can have.. who cares about losing job when they already have 100M or 200M in the bank.

This is why Jordan still remains the GOAT. He understands what matters most, WINNING.🤷🏾♂️
Jordan was never the goat
Wizards?
@@stang_shiesty9597 lebum dxxkroder 🐎
Yeah cause he got 13 rings right? Jordan never lost huh?
That's why bill Russell the GOAT cuss he win more the mj. Mj played 20 years only went to 6 finals.. if he the GOAT dragg them without having a pippen....
The Lebron bias narrative of " iTs rUsS fAuLt " has been exposed after losing to the worst Blazer team of All-time 🥴
Lol Russ now has a case to say he's been carrying this team
Lol
👀
LAKERS fans say:
RUSS: "Don't shoot!"
VOGEL: "Don't coach!"
LEBRON: "Don't form a team ever!"
Thats not how this works 😂 yeah u removed russ but we still dont have the 500 guys we gave up. Even those guys won games without ad and bron
LeBron just needs 2 more All-Stars
I kno right😂…he could use another hall of Famer just to be sure. Pathetic
He only needed one in 2020 and they won the championship.
@@ndjibukabengele973 AD carried him to tht chip which is why Lakers got bounced in first round last year with AD getting hurt 😂
@@ndjibukabengele973 nobody cares about that “bubble” chip. Seriously only Bron fans . Some laker fans don’t even respect it 🤣
@@everythingloveurlife4904
Let me school you since your basketball IQ is below average. The lower seeds teams benefited from playing in the bubble because the high ranked teams like the Lakers and others didn't get that chance in the playoffs to play on their home court and you and I know that having a home court advantage helps you win. Your crowd can get you going but in the bubble all the teams were equals, no home court advantage. Who cares if other dumb Lakers fans and you don't consider the bubble. It was mentally challenging for all the players.
The Lakers have players that can't defend a parked car
Blows me away that there’s this many segments about an awful team. If this wasn’t a team with LeBron on it then they wouldn’t even make the news cycle smh. Can only listen to these guys talking about how awful the lakers are so many times before it gets annoying
LeRatings that's why. Jordan is the real GOAT.
As a suns fan I'd rather hear about this tbh. Lakers were cocky before the season, so this is entertaining to me
Then don’t watch it’s just that simple.
About time Shannon started being objective on this team.
I'm a Lakers fan but this team is pathetic and disgraceful. When Skip and Shannon calls out the Portland backups you know it's a problem. They can't use Westbrook as an excuse because he was out last night. Once they got Westbrook I knew that wasn't gonna work.
2:46 "Where did he come from?" LOL🤣
Russ was proving a point! 👉🏾 Unfortunately you have to do it sometimes 🤷🏾♂️
Skip and Shannon have suchvgreat chemestry
Now they're trying to get Rob fired 😆 🤣
I love the chemistry between these two🔥🔥🔥❤️
It’s hard being a die hard Lakers fan right now. This season reminds me of the team with Robert Sacre, Jeremy Lin, Wesley Johnson, and Xavier Henry. Painful times then and painful now.
This prolly worse considering all the names on the floor. On paper and at one point was considered title contenders. The same squad is struggling to make the playoffs.
LeBron just too nice of a guy. Easy to tell the difference between him and Kobe. Clear as day.
God damn that team was trash
F the lakers. Trash team that doesn’t develop players just tries to buy their way to championships.
THE SNAIL BLAZZERS 🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣 Skipppppp
Shannon: “Dennis Smith has been on half of the NBA teams and he’s only on his 5th season.” 💀💀💀💀
“westbrookian” is hilarious😂😂
nah is russ to blame for this one ?
You Bron fans should be embarrassed to call that dude your favorite player after he missed a layup and was cherry-picking only to still lose the game and Bron is number one in turnovers that’s why he does that ignorant things cause his fans still represent him when he is not helping the team
Wow it’s going to snow in Hawaii never thought I’ll see Shannon put the blame on Lebron
"I guess he's kind of a distant cousin" LMAO that statement is so subtly hilarious. Such a clever sneak diss I couldn't stop laughing for some reason
Trade AD for jaylen brown in off season. It helps both teams honestly
I Would tRde AD TO
That was be a stupid trade.
Trading AD our only way to get better. Get as many pieces back that you can. Trade Russ in the off-season for literally anything.
No it doesn’t. Would rather have Brown than AD
@@ActionJacksonForever AD TO injury prone
“idc who else they have me, you jenny... the camera guy” 🤣🤣🤣
What a bunch of fake Lakers. Disrespecting Kobe's house. Lebron, AD, Russ all undeserving of wearing the purple and gold. Excuse making, no heart, no sacrifice
That's the problem with living in LA for these athletes. They want the big city and fame but don't realize it's always gonna take hard work regardless of where you're at.
Imagine losing to a Aldridge-less blazers.
This must be Skips favorite year
Skip really thought he did somethin with "snail blazers"
U can blame Lebron for this he picked the squad he wanted , should’ve never let the team fall apart after the chip
Lol Skip Loves It when Shannon Calls Lebron out….Eyes lit up!! 😂😂
Those names sounded like the Lakers Lost to a G-League team 😔
Skip and Shannon chemistry on this show keeps getting stronger and stronger. I hope they don’t break up
As long as Lebron scores 30 everyone thinks he had a great game......biggest stat padder ever!
He's always taken the most shots on his team and dominates ball yet ppl call him a pass first player and not a scorer smh
@@tdup191 that's all fine but let's talk about how he influenced the trade for westbrick to try to influence everyone he can win with him. Love bron and easily a top 3 or 5 player all time, but he's trying too hard to be the best in everything to cloud his collapses in the past. But failed to realize this recent collapse of getting probably the worst PG in terms of decision making and TO in the game. But let's gloss over that and put the blame on the coach who won with them 2 years ago lol
Turn over machine , can't make free throws
You’re dumb dude that team sucks without Lebron lakers are trash even with AD and Russ Bron should dip and go back to the cavs with people who actually want to play defense and quit relying on Lebron to win games it’s sad I watched all the games if you don’t watch every game and see what I see an want to blame
Lebron you’re dumb yes he’s to blame at times but the guy is 37 years old he can’t be carrying Teams he’s not 30
Can’t be a stat padder with 4 championships
Man I love this honest analysis when skip doesn’t have to be forced to have to feel to push a narrative to create a debate
What an absolute disaster of a team 😂
Huge shout out by Shannon to the camera guy
As a Laker fan since 1987. I'm beyond disappointed in their effort. We have too many weak minded players on the team. We need to go young. We need to go young. Shoulda never traded out young players. Thanks Pelinka and Lebron. You brought embarrassment to the Lakers.
1 championship 2 seasons ago that’s it!
