Lakers unfortunately came up short, but how did you feel about DFS and Milton's debuts? Comment down below! (Happy New Year everyone!!) Follow me on Twitter to hear my thoughts during live games! - twitter.com/JSMonYT
THAT THEY ARE NOT ABLE TO CREATE A SHOT OFF THE DRILL, CREATING THE SHOT ON YOUR OWN, OFF THE DRILL IS FUNDAMENTAL, A GREAT OFFENSE ALWAYS BEATS A GOOD DEFENSE, ALWAYS ALWAYS, BUT THE LAKERS ORGANIZATION SEEM NOT TO UNDERSTAND THIS BECAUSE THEY ARE A BREED OF DISGUSTING INCOMPETENTS.
Exactly. They made tough shots and they’ll come back down to earth eventually, that won’t fly in the playoffs for them. Lakers have the formula to beat them tho
There was some good moments from DFS & Shake Milton. DFS had some good defensive moments where I can see the different ways we can use him. With Shake he is a good offensive guard who will also occasionally have some good defensive moments.
Bc they figured them out. They switched everything, they attacked them inside and took care of the ball. Cleveland struggled at times w the Lakers physicality
@@oneofakind104 They could probably still use a solid C, whether Wood starts or not but the Lakers could also use a perimeter 3+D guy if they don't get a C. Right now with a healthy roster I'd go Bron K4 DFS AD Wood, Shake Reaves Cam Vando Rui which is a solid 10 man rotation but I'd still try to move Rui & Gabe +JHS & a pick for a solid C/Guard or Wing combo to help AD move to PF & not have to be literally everything on defense
This was the low point for this new team and yet they came pretty close to beating the Cavs. Give them a month and you will see better and better performances! Which is very scary. The 3 point shots will start going in very soon.
I watched the entire game and DFS puts in tons of effort, & looked like he'll blend well with the team. You can tell LA needs a center badly though. Jarret Allen was a problem
Gotta get time to gel that’s all DFS is so much better defensively than everybody else not named AD, Max is good defensively too he guarded real well, CLE just made ridiculous shots bruh, You can only contest if they make them nothing you can do 🤷♂️
They did and they switched everything too. Game plan discipline was good. They have the formula to beat this team. Switch everything, attack them inside & take care of the ball
@@melvincuaresma-SWwe need to put rui on the bench and make him come off the bench cause he plays no damn defense at all he still move his feet slow as hell on defense or trade him for jerami grant or go get kuzma
I read Shake made a better impact over DFS from reading the individual stats. So it seems the throw in guy will be better since he played less minutes and they played the cavs.
You dont have to play near to perfect,just shoot league average 3s and the lakers never never shoot 3s well, WHY ,if Lebron had that wed be NBA CHAMPS GUARANTEED 💯
As part of a larger multi-team trade ... Lakers in: LaVine, Jevon Carter, Gary Payton II, Keshad Johnson, and Pelle Larsson. Lakers out: Hachimura, Vanderbilt, Gabe Vincent, Max Christie, Hood-Schifino, Jaxon Hayes, Christian Wood, Shake Milton, and Reddish. Lakers sign: Biyombo, Dwight Howard, Cedi Osman, and Troy Brown Jr. PG - Reaves - Carter - James SG - LaVine - Payton - Larsson C --- Davis - Biyombo - Howard PF - James - Osman - Johnson SF - Smith - Knecht - Brown Jr.
All this says is you either go all in for Kessler or take a chance on Robert Williams. You need athleticism in that position, Kessler has the potential to be elite may Jarret Allen lite?
The Lakers were making a solid comeback in the second! Then LBJ comes back in and starts forcing layups & ball hogging. The The Cavs started pulling away again because they play team ball. While the Lakers play Hero Ball.
Happy New Year. We need another primary ball handler that can run the bench and play D and shoot a bit and centers. That’s literally the only problem. Lonzo would have been perfect but dlo was the only way to get him and bulls won’t buy him out smh.
When AD plays traditional big his weakness is clear to everyone Such games is where you need AD to play a 4 and someone like Kessler to be a 5 You can’t have their C scoring more than 20p on you if you wanna beat the cavs And Max is the best defender in the team we need Vando back LeBron played without his knees
That’s been his weakness his whole career that’s why when he was on the pelicans they always had him starting the 4 & yeah he will end some game at the 5 but for the majority of the game he was at the 4 then it made him fresher down the stretch cause he ain’t have to bang & do the dirty work all game lakers need a center who’s willing to do the things AD don’t wanna do
You think stating speculative nonsense makes it true? Or just scratching an itch to complain about a player you dont like even after no longer on the team. Move TF on.
I’ll give em 5 games to see how things look…RUI job is in jeopardy. Might I say even his spot on the team if a team want him in a package ?? 🤔🤔 get another big + a sniper…these guys wouldn’t immediately change this team overnight like the DLO and vando trade when we got them from the jazz/wolves

Could have made better trades. Not much of an impact in 20 plus minutes.
@rexscipio3344 they new
great showing from DFS and Shake! the physicality and energy they both showed is something we need to

They played the cavs ,they’ll be alright

@@LeGoatJames111laker need a big man because Cleveland had too many second opportunities
@@LeGoatJames111lakers might not even make playoffs 😂
Keep crying little bro
@@fentazen2677no one was crying lol. you just talking just to talk.

You mean shake only right
I couldn’t help but notice DFS sprinting at the hoop every time we put a shot up. When he’s settled he should take Rui’s starting spot.
yeah rui is better as a 6thman
Ngl I think he should take christe's spot, it will allow us to have a bigger lineup and get more boards.
@@abhiramgunna952Rui can’t guard the perimeter. He’s always ball watching. Six man it is or get him traded.
@@abhiramgunna952nah we need christie and dorian as the two other starters on the team unless we get a centre
Happy new years JSM! Keep making banger content!
I think the Lakers put the NBA on notice last night including the Cavs. A loss by 12 instead of 40 is a 30-point swing when you shoot poorly from 3.
Bc they figured them out. They switched everything, they attacked them inside and took care of the ball. Cleveland struggled at times w the Lakers physicality
@@LeGoatJames111 Right, Lakers were a few turnovers away from an upset.
Lakers need a solid center
waiting to see what happens with CWood
@@oneofakind104 They could probably still use a solid C, whether Wood starts or not but the Lakers could also use a perimeter 3+D guy if they don't get a C.

Yea man yk how that goes everybody makes everything against the lakers
Remember, we will never see their full potential. Wait until everybody's healthy.
The defense with Gabe, Milton, DFS, Vanderbilt and AD. They don’t want to see Lakers healthy
Cavs is balling right now Happy New Year 💯
@@melvincuaresma-SWwe need to put rui on the bench and make him come off the bench cause he plays no damn defense at all he still move his feet slow as hell on defense or trade him for jerami grant or go get kuzma
@@melvincuaresma-SWhow’s Kawhi 2.0 😂
I am happy with what I saw!! It’s going to get better
The team solid. They just need a good defensive center.
Happy new years jsm
Happy New Years to you as well!
One word "CENTER"
They just got there and they haven't played with the team good yet,there going to get there when they get use to it playing with the rest of the guys
happy new year jsm
Can’t really complain about this game… They hit 3s then they probably win… But they played hard…
The 3 point line was an issue but were ignoring we had NO answer for Jarrett Allen! Jarrett Allen 27 Points and 14 Rebounds was the difference.
Making 18 threes was the real difference
Happy new year jsm.
remember they barley had one practice together dhs and shake aren’t comfortable or know where everyone will be on offense yet
Does anyone know what that weird glitch was around the end of the first quarter
I didn’t like how Jj used them
Rui is better off the bench
I read Shake made a better impact over DFS from reading the individual stats. So it seems the throw in guy will be better since he played less minutes and they played the cavs.
You dont have to play near to perfect,just shoot league average 3s and the lakers never never shoot 3s well, WHY ,if Lebron had that wed be NBA CHAMPS GUARANTEED 💯
when are they going to realize the need of a true center.
They trying to get Walker
As part of a larger multi-team trade ...
Lakers in:
LaVine, Jevon Carter, Gary Payton II, Keshad Johnson, and Pelle Larsson.
Lakers out:
Hachimura, Vanderbilt, Gabe Vincent, Max Christie, Hood-Schifino, Jaxon Hayes, Christian Wood, Shake Milton, and Reddish.
Lakers sign:
Biyombo, Dwight Howard, Cedi Osman, and Troy Brown Jr.
PG - Reaves - Carter - James
SG - LaVine - Payton - Larsson
C --- Davis - Biyombo - Howard
PF - James - Osman - Johnson
SF - Smith - Knecht - Brown Jr.
everyone need some adjustment period, especially when they used to play without an allstar teammate, they'll be alright
Rui was horrible in the first Thts how we got tht huge lead in the first
Didnt understand why Jaxon Hayes didnt play some for length.
All this says is you either go all in for Kessler or take a chance on Robert Williams. You need athleticism in that position, Kessler has the potential to be elite may Jarret Allen lite?
The Lakers were making a solid comeback in the second! Then LBJ comes back in and starts forcing layups & ball hogging. The The Cavs started pulling away again because they play team ball. While the Lakers play Hero Ball.
I wouldn’t mind if Milton gets more minutes then Gabe ngl if he’s committed defensively
You can tell LeBron was tryna get DFS involved early…we still got guys hurt so we won’t see what we look like until then
Happy New Year. We need another primary ball handler that can run the bench and play D and shoot a bit and centers. That’s literally the only problem. Lonzo would have been perfect but dlo was the only way to get him and bulls won’t buy him out smh.
When AD plays traditional big his weakness is clear to everyone
Such games is where you need AD to play a 4 and someone like Kessler to be a 5
You can’t have their C scoring more than 20p on you if you wanna beat the cavs
And Max is the best defender in the team we need Vando back

Walker kessler next
The playbook also knowj as the script
When they get Vanderbilt they will be great again
Tough loss but I was closer than I thought
Shake did good I was disappointed that the other player good only get two points
Why won’t the Lakers sign Dwight ? I don’t understand
He's TRASH atp, might as well go get Tim Duncan while we at it lol.. Say u don't watch basketball without saying it 🤦🏾♂️
Get Rui inconsistent ass to the bench🎉
Lakers trade rui for dejounte and they back in business and trade for kessler. Lakers lack of a real point showed
Better than with dlo tbh. With dlo they would have lost by 50
You think stating speculative nonsense makes it true? Or just scratching an itch to complain about a player you dont like even after no longer on the team. Move TF on.

I’d rather see Bronny
Rui needs to do more and LeBron doesn't rebound enough. Christie is Christie. Just look at their +/-'s.
LeBron is 40 avg 8 rebounds, what are you talking about lol 😂 give Cavs the credit
He had 4 tonight. Look at the +/-. Those 3 had the worse in the game. AD has the best +/- since 2019-20. @@brettthomas6327
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 HERE WE GO AGAIN. PEOPLE ARE DUMB ENOUGH TO HOPE WHEN BRON HAS ALREADY 22 YEARS OF PLAYING IN THE NBA AS PROOF THAT SAYS OTHERWISE.

Austin reeves is a turnover machine.
Lakers need bengay
Nah. They need benstraight
Lakers next step: trade GV, JV, JHS, Hayes, Reddish + 2 first round picks for Jazz Klesser + Sexton
Nooo that's to much. 2 first and jhs and Hayes for Kessler, then go get Bruce brown from Toronto.
It was a disappointing debut. This move was supposed to turn us around defensively.
yah bro i agree. the move was supposed to turn us around defensively immediately in first game and against the best team in the league with the number one offense
It was their first game, what do yall want
Bro, they didn't even have enough time to adjust to JJ's offense yet. But DFS did good on defense.
@@CBoogie91 Why are these so-called LA fans always like this? Ngl, as soon as things go wrong, they instantly start asking for a trade.
Will be alright
Its only the 1st hame ya in Cleveland is a good team. They only lost like 5 gamed
Nets won the trade. DLO gone just feels like lakers suck and don’t have mojo
Lakers won this trade. Dlo doesn't play any defense. Dfs and Milton fill them roles perfectly.
DLO was fun to watch and a dynamic offensive player. Losing that piece with no effective replacement is going to really hurt the team.
@kray97 he average 12 points a game lol. Dlo didn't wanna be there u can tell by watching his game play.
