That 165 Minute Lead stat and Still losing 4-1 is unacceptable!
That 165 minute lead is misleading, because they get out in front early. The stat seems like the Lakers wins more minutes, but If you look at the point differential by quarters they are pretty much even and Denver might actually have the slight edge and Denver might have actually won more quarters than the Lakers as well.
Thats on the coach
Both Nuggets - Lakers series were much much closer than the final result would suggest. Especially this year.
@@rodjenihm agree, just want to point out this stat, cuz it makes it seems like the Lakers should've won by a landslide while it's really close throughout with Nuggets having slight edge.
Nah it’s very acceptable, peace out
ESPN making excuses once again
Absolutely 💯
Like always
Shut up you bitter incel
Wat excuse nuggets were expected to win
Here we go with the excuses….he says guys have been in and out of the lineup?
Season stats for the starters this year games played:
Lebron- 71 games played
Davis - 76 games played
Hachimura - 68 games played
Reeves - 82 games played
Russell - 76 games played
So where is the guys in and out of the lineup he’s talking about? I don’t want to hear about role players and end of the bench guys…every team goes through common injuries throughout the season it’s part of the deal…..
Lakers lost because Lebron can’t close…Reeves took 5 shot the last 3 minutes of the game…AD and Lebron your HOF players should be closing these types of games out!!
Every team has injuries. LOL!
Have you guys ever heard of Vando ?
@@soulzy3596right. Casuals trolling per usual.
If you are holding up vando is the straw, how pathetic is your star. Vando is good on D, but is a zero on the offensive side.
RETIRE ANTHONY DAVIS!!!!!! This man is weak
Murray dunks on lebron then does the Lebron shoulder movement 😂
Luckily that he did not injured himself. He should learned how to take care of him body or else he would be 15th season
Luckily that he did not injured himself. He should learned how to take care of him body or else he would be 15th season
It was ok
It was cool , bron dunked on him multiple times this series . Anything to say bout that ?
I absolutely loved that part !! LeBalco likes to shrug is shoulders after bulldozing smaller players. Its so cringe every time he does. Glad Murray showed how to earn a real shrug !
Nuggets won , we're going to talk about LeBron James for the rest of the playoffs.
Sure we will, he is the GOAT. face it
This sounds like last year
I mean... idk if Jokić would even enjoy being talked about on ESPN.
@@lashaxoperia5917 Jordan isn't playing

Here we go talking about Bron future and not the Nuggets win and Lakers lost

Exactly.
Soon he will be a bad memory , and that time cannot come soon enough
This is sports you talk about the story that fans really want to hear. But the Denver/Minnesota series is gonna get it's time😂😂
@@dangreene3895get that hate out your life young man, God don't like that 😭
The fact that he’s pulling out the excuses for LeBron again is hilarious 🤣
Facts
LeBron was the one who said they would lose in game 5.
ESPN trying to cope really hard
Good riddance of LeBalco James.
Nba tried their best to rig this game. Again insane free throw disparity for the lakers like the last two seasons.
I wish I bet 1 million that LeBalco will not shake players’ hands, knew it.
He's 40 years old
The Nuggets need to be the talk of the NBA for now on. They are the Defending Champions
"And with the 17th pick in the NBA draft, The L.A Sparks select Bronny James"
With his wonderful 4-PPG on poor efficiency straight out of USC. 😁
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 Big Factsssssss
LOL!!!
I would pick Caitlin Clark before the USC guard that averaged 4.8 ppg on 37% shooting and a LeBron-like 68% from the FT line
ESPN are the biggest Lakers stans, it's crazy. Three segments on them today alone.

Did he just say I'm not a participation guy. What do you think the in season tournament was. 😂
That's exactly what I was thinking. Same with the Mickey Mouse ring he won during Covid.
@@JohnSmith-nj4zqthe bubble ring, a title so easy, no other team could win it….
This is why Michael Jordan will forever be the GOAT
@@Big_Garf no one else could win it because Joker and Murray were babies, Kawhi/PG choked as usual, Giannis got hurt, Brooklyn imploded, and the superstar-less Heat with two injured starters still almost took the Lakers to 7
So he was supposed to sit out those games? That was apart of the regular season
Jay finding reasons to tell us that Lakers could have won the series. He is salty. Hahahaha
and ur a loser in real life so who cares. You comment doesn't matter.
jay is a LEklutch sports client an LEslurper. we're not surprised.
Jay Will really whining about not having a timeout there like that changes this series sums up all Laker fans. Good riddance
Excuse, scapegoat, find more help. Wash, rinse, repeat. Can’t wait for this self-proclaimed GOAT to retire. Won’t miss him. People should be eyeing Ant more.
Once again walked off the court? Where’s the sportsmanship
Right at least when Jordan lost to the pistons two years in a row he shook their hands before Jordan and the bulls swept them and the pistons walked off without shaking his hand being salty. Lebron is a poor sport man
@@jaysouthmusic82303 years in a row he shook the pistons hands
LeBron is the biggest frontrunner in the history of sports. When has he ever showed sportsmanship?
What funny is LeBron did box out but got bullied out the paint 🤣 y'all gotta stop acting like Arron Gordon is not strong
Ya exactly he boxed out, just Gordon hustled and read the bounce right
Exactly
AG is a beast! Similar to Blake Griffin
Now Lebron is weak? Lmaoooo. He can’t jump now? Or show effort? Gtfo outta here.
They not acting like AG not strong , that’s the point in saying bron gotta box out , “box out better” . AG is a Great player tho , Denver has 4 STARS in the starting lineup , each can average 25+ on their OWN teams .
The 165 minute lead is actually a misleading stat that leads people to believe that the Lakers played better the majority of time. It's really just saying that the Lakers gets out in front early. If you look at the points differential by quarters, then you'd see it's really more even with the Denver actually having the edge both in differentials and number of quarters won.
It's called deflection, ESPN does this all the time
All I know is that MJ is the goat
LeBron is the BOAT = Biggest Baby Of All Time
I watch mj and kobe, lebron is better than both
@danLTa1 bro stop the cap omg....

The league’s getting younger, more athletic, and overall better talent. Lebron, Curry, Kd are done. And the thing I love most is these young guns aren’t looking to crew up with one another 😂😂

Well after kd got swept again in the first round 😂😂 nobody cares about goat James getting eliminated

I mean retire already. Bring back the time where the NBA was fun to watch including the All Star game. Less flop, less trouble, more physical, more trash talk without getting a technical foul.
Rob should be replaced with Bob Mayers
Hes not retiring
He'll either stay with Lakers or have one final return to Cleveland
Agreed I can see cavs drafting bronny
@@deionwashington7096Agreed
Definitely not Cleveland, he sticking with Always Falls AD
@@nadecha5326That's AD'S Native American name. Be respectful to Always Falls.
I think next year will be it for Lebron.
Welp Lebron Steph and KD are just a few years away from teaming up in the Big 3 league
Not sure. Warriors have depth bench wise. They just gotta make a few moves. And they should be good.
Na they’ll be on the team USA team together this summer.. they’ll have plenty of rest lol
You mean in the Olympics. That's about the only big 3 with those 3 you will see form
Nah. KD is going to Minnesota. Steph and LeBron are going to stay pat
Lebron will automatically go for the Big3 all time scoring title
I'm not a participating guy😂😂😂
Says a player that has won 4 championships in 21 years.
4 fmvp btw unlike kobe only 2😂
@@sinakomfunwa53804-6 in the Finals
And the in season tournament basically proved his point
So Kobe Mike Shaq Duncan dirk kg etc were just participating they whole career?
So what was Vince Carter doin?
Lebrick PR is out in force 😂😂😂😂
Since the NBA is half entertainment anyways, why not have KD and LeBron go join Steph, Draymond and Klay in Golden State for one last run for all the old legends? They can trade for KD w a package centered around Wiggins and picks, LeBron can just sign there as a FA. Now you have a super villian super team of aging legends trying to stave off all the new young studs in the upcoming generation! It would create a super cool narrative for 1-3 seasons and fun to watch. I'm sure the Suns would be happy to move off KD and get some picks and younger talent. Lebron and Steph are not gonna win anything separately on those teams, they don't have enough time to build a championship team. At least this would be super entertaining and create a whole new story line for the NBA!
💯💯💯💯💯
Who’s your daddy😂😂😂😂. It’s just basketball 😂😂😂
that "block" by AD was a mugging LOL that joint wasn't clean at all! hit em in the back, in the head, in the arm, get outta here!
At least 4 fouls in that sequence, and refs took foul back in challenge. I watched it live and commentators were laughing in disbelief watching slow mo. Nuggets defeated Lakers refs.
@@nikoladjordjic9566 they weren’t laughing in disbelief.. one thought it was a foul and the other one didn’t
Windhorst is a shameless stan
he’s from cleveland and went to the same hs as lebron. of course he’s a stan
Windhorst, Nick Wright, Broussard, Shannon Sharpe, JJ Redick, Draymond Green, Legler, Bill Simmons.....lots of Klutch sports agents in the NBA media paid by LeBron and his handlers
he runs twinkies to his boss LEzesty ramone shames on the daily.
He will demand another new coach and demand they draft his not-ready-for-the-NBA kid. 😝
Ham is a horrible coach
LeBron does love the theatrics. Forcing the Lakers to draft his below G League level son… 😂 That’s already a wasted pick. Then look for other stars to beat teams who built their roster more organically.
Lakers had 3x more free throws in Game 5 and still lost. Even the refs couldn’t save their season. Jamal Murray has the heart of a champion. AD is a wimp.
AD SO SOFT LMAOOOOO
Lakers shot 3 times as many free throws as Nuggets. Refs helped a lot this series.
As a Lakers fan, I hope he’s done holding us hostage. Move on & thank you. I appreciate your time with the Lakers.
Denver and Minnesota are not going away. Lakers are going to need a helluva lot more than someone small like Trae Young, Zach LaVine, or Dejounte Murray.
ESPN is in UTTER AGONY AND DESPAIR RIGHT NOW!!!
Good.
You lose a timeout bc they don’t want you using challenges as timeouts in crunch times.
LB walked off the court without congratulating anyone.😮 I’ve seen that before with Isiah Thomas and that’s all they talked about yet no one said anything about Lebron walking off being bad sportsmanship.
No he is the Golden Boy of the media
He does it a lot, too 😂
The irony is he just recently said “its just basketball” 😂😂😂 if it was he should’ve shook their hands
LeBron James you are now a Cleveland Cavaliers
Gee I would hate to pull against the Cavaliers
Honestly i want LeBron to play his last season in Cleveland
"it's not a sweep, so there's progress that way." 😂😂
4-1 is a gentleman's sweep.
I said it many times before the series started, the Lakers don't want the Nuggets in first round. They just played the play-in games while the Nuggets got a few extra days of rest and preparation for them. This series should be a conference final matchup. Oh well, they made round 1 much more interesting for the NBA fans anyways
On court time leading for Lakers was insane stat but then again what does it say about this team? Not a closer..
Just got a text from my friend. He says tonight is Lebrons last game in purple and gold
- Cari Champion
Outside of the bubble. Lebron and AD time in LA I would say it’s a failure. If the 2019-20 season was cancelled due to Covid. They would’ve accomplished nothing.
I never hear anyone complain about the challenge system in football. That wasn't the right time to challenge the play and lose the timeout.
Even the game announcers didn't know the convoluted challenge rules.
Did Jay Williams really say Ham is an incredible coach? 😮
On the one hand, I admire Lebron's greatness. On the other hand, I can't wait until every NBA story isn't about the life and times of LBJ. All season the T-Wolves, Thunder, and Defending Champs were the class of the West, but all the NBA media talked about was LeBron and Steph, their appointed golden boys, at the expense of these great teams.
classic ESPN talking about the Lakers when they lose a series rather than talk about the Nuggets lol
Jay saying that because AD was injured that was the reason the Lakers lost, The Nuggets had injured players who were playing too and they still won. Jamal Murray, Reggie Jackson and KCP were all injured players.
So now they are questioning the timeout/ challenge call. The you have been there for years now.
ELITE defensive play by Jokic on that final possession. Stopping Lebrons moment and forcing him to give up the ball
“Is not a sweep so that is progress in that way…”
As a lakers fan, I’m really bothered to hear that.
Remember "IT'S JUST BASKETBALL" rite? Now go to Cancun!
Idk still triggered about lebron talking facts
@@WeKNOWTHETRUTHITSUNDISTPUTED What facts? still triggered with every Lebron jab? cope harder.
@@TheStrawThatStirsTheDrink no one is coping but u sure are crying cry more
The Goat getting under your skin again lol….@@WeKNOWTHETRUTHITSUNDISTPUTED
I feel the challenege rule is fair...if you still get to hold your challenge if right why do they have to keep there timeout to
10th Mountain Division did it again. On to the next, I'm sure Perk is gonna hype the wolves next.
Cry more
@@WeKNOWTHETRUTHITSUNDISTPUTED No, you a bron laker fan need to cry and cope more. Go wear your Klutch hoodie and start digging into that pint of ice cream before crying yourself to sleep. You and your team just got your walking papers so you and your Play-in team, together with your comments are Irrelevant 😂
He should finish his career with the Cavs as where it started as they have a good young talented team.
When you lose in the first round to the same team two years in a row, you do not have the pieces needed to win a championship. Nice try Jay wil.
Lebron , KD, and Steph team up for the best super team ever…….. that’s next years headlines
The day he retires or leaves is the day i start going for the Lakers again. And I really hope they win it that year 🤞
Please tell me what about Darvin makes him an incredible coach
That last play by the Lakers was not smart. You don't pass the ball inbounds toward the sidelines. You pass the ball to a guy going towards the middle of the court. Both of your two all-stars were involved in this play.
Windy keep saying the same thing with No Basis.
I think if Lebron stays, he will just opt in. Whats the purpose of all of that? For 1, he dont need a no trade clause in it...because they are not trading for him. 2, hes not doing no more than 2 years in the NBA, so it is what it is. If he does another year, that will be it...or 1 more. Thats It!
Don’t understand why the Lakers have their PG’s guarding Murray 🤦 why not put our best defender on him & have Reaves in the corner guarding KCP
LeBron: "I'm not a participation guy", except he has been for 17 of his 21 seasons. Everyone is a participation guy, only 1 in 30 win each year.
The Lakers are literally wasting AD prime years having LeBalco as the first option. I really feel bad for AD 😢
When you lose 13 out of 14 games. It's not "small tweaks" needed. It's the over team is flat out better.
They said cant blame the coaching but blames the coaching decisions 🤣🤣🤣
Please don't come with "they lost because they had no timeouts left" because on Game 2 Denver ran the last play without calling timeout. No excuses
Greeny, bring up your suggestion about the Lakers' Play In Tournament
Do you think those Lakers lead by LeBronze must be regretting not losing the game with Pelicans...with all the injuries to key players (Murrray, KCP & Jackson) on the Nuggets...they may not get pass the Timberwolves now
- 0:23 While showing the clip of him collapsing to the ground from being bumped in the shoulder. -
Mike Greenberg: "What do we see there, he just gets bumped on the shoulder by D'Angelo Russell what what
do you see here?"
Jay Williams: "He just gets bumped by Michael Porter Jr and the the injury occurs and his game was never the same."
Mike Greenberg: "That's it."
Mike is so shady, lol.
Aaron Gordon was not boxed out by LeBron. Offensive Rebounds for the Series: Gordon 18 LeBron 4
I just love that right after Lakers lose, LeBron needs more help. Lakers can’t beat a team with ONE all-star. Lakers will follow the Suns. Have three stars and still lose to Denver or Minny.
The Lakers lost their timeout on that challenge because they already used their challenge on a call earlier in the game, which they won, kept their timeout, and were rewarded with another challenge. When they used their second challenge, they would lose their timeout regardless of the ruling of the call. Yall need to look up the rules lol
LeBron answered that question that way cause he knows its gonna make ESPN talk about his remarks all summer long
First they need to fire Rob Pelinka...
This game aside. I don’t think you should lose your timeout.
King James thinking about that warriors deal right now lmfaooooo
Lakers were better this game in terms of defense, but they really needed another big man and a real “reliable” knock down shooter. They didn’t win the moments they really needed to.
It's not getting ANY easier. Younger better teams have now made their claims in the league. It's hard to accept but depending on a 40-year-old who's been playing since a kid is asking a lot.
Imagine the lakers losing 4-1 in the first round and espn in any capacity says “they dominated” 🤣🤣🤣
There's a pattern with LeBron. When he loses in a bad way. He tends to deflect and distract with his passive aggressiveness. Smart but we see right through it. It's not a good look for a man regarded as sublime of a player as him
ESPN: That was the closest I've seen a team lose 8 out of 9 ever.
As a Cavs fan I'd be down for one last dance with the king
ESPN blowing LeBum, no matter what the circumstances are, has been the norm since his Akron days twenty plus years ago.
As much as I am excited that Jamal and the Nikola are through to the next round, I am sad for Lebron. He played his heart out this series.
Lakers will once again mortgage their future to try to get LeBron another title. They will give up their first round picks to get Trae Young.
Reality check: all the headlines were “The Lakers won the FA/off-season!”, none of those acquisition worked add in Dinwiddie…
What match-up do you guys want, AD vs Nikola isn't fair?
LA lacking just a bruiser/ spacer big man like Gordon is all the reason. One wonders why Lakers did not call even older big man to reinfoce and equalize the middle. Poor management and recruiting.
What windy forgets, lakers didn’t have many options for trade packages. Teams had way more suitors and are tired of trading players for bags of skittles.
I think it depends on what the Lakers do. Windy just assuming.
It's no different than last year. Lakers simply have no closer. I was desperate for Kyrie or Harden. Got neither, 1st round swept.
J Will brings up the in season tournament 😂😂😂
