- THE JASON SMITH SHOW - Jason discusses LeBron James’ 2-year $104 million deal with the Lakers, the small concessions LeBron refused to make to help the team, why his deal shows he’s not concerned with winning titles anymore, and why the Lakers won’t really be back again until LeBron is gone.

His whole tenure with the Lakers needs to be erased when he leaves.
I hope so. I’m not gonna root for the lakers anymore cause that means rooting for LeBalco
Hell I'm a Celtics fan I actually agree with you I could laugh at the Lakers but even I never thought it would get this bad for them I thought they would be more respectable this is just embarrassing
The LeLakers 😂
😂😂😂
The Lebrongeles Lakers are a🤡show
Prayer from OG Lakers Fan: Jesus, please take the wheel from Ms. Buss and drive Lebron and baby James safely back to Ohio. We ask with grace for more championships, NOT an old father, and NOT ready son crappy team. We have plenty of history in Kobe's name. Thank you, Higher Power... Amen!
😂😂😢😢😅😅 So Sad But So True Lord..please forgive me for the humor but Amen Bro🙏💪baby james got me lord
@@lisanichols-sheppard8121 Amen, amen, and amen again , I'm from the deep south of Alabama
Amen
i never liked the idea of Lakers signing Lebalco back in 2018 and subsequently trading away all their young guns. If i were the Lakers FO, i would have focused on player development like how OKC operated.
And now signing a guy who scored 4 ppg for the worst team in the pac 12
How did this dude get so much power...steph has had more success and he is not a narcissistic excuse making delusional player
Steph has had more success? LeBron has more league MVP’s, more finals MVP’s, he won rookie of the year, more all star appearances, more all nba’s, he’s the NBA all time leading scorer and they have the same amount of championships. How has Steph had more success than LeBron?
You delusional
@B-boy83 he has been able to be great on one team with the core team being made up of draft picks. His last championship was impressive with a declining team.
@@nostalgicgamer1363 that’s not more success because you are playing with a declining roster. The Warriors are making a lot of moves this offseason like they always have. The only thing that was consistent about the Warriors roster year end and year out was Steph, Draymond, and Klay. The Warriors always made free agent acquisitions, Durant, Wiggins, West, Igoudala, Bogut, and Livingston. None of those guys was drafted by the Warriors
LeBron remind me of Trump. They're both rich, powerful Narcissist
LeBron just won't go away bro ..
LeBron's got to GO!!!! 😅😅😅
Why?
@@dparks2856it's bronnys time too 🐝 the face of the league
This franchise was once proud....now its jus a circus and a joke
Yep They Were Thriving For 6 Years Before LBJ Got There .
Zubac, Randle, Kuz, BI and Lonzo with Clarkson…… they were good and needed to build around them
Traded them all away
When they start RIGGING GAMES to make Bronny look good and then tv analyst that work for Klutch gonna glaze the hell out of Bronny ....heard it from me first
Even skip bayless is glazing Bronny and saying congratulations
Lakers blew their window of future success. After the bubble chip they should've traded either Bron or AD (or both) when their value was at its peak. The window has closed and now it's play-in time (maybe) until 'he' leaves.
bubble doesn't count as a real championship.
@@Ralphunreal
If they would have lost. What would u have said?
@@dparks2856 Yes. Only fake Laker fans believe bubble chip. Entire NBA laughs.
@@Ralphunreal I didn't say it counted.
@@greggibson33
Should they have lost? That would have been better?
Lakers front office tried to build a culture but Hurley turned it down because of Lebron and his demand list.
Jason Smith is right .. nothing will change until Lebron is gone.
We’ll ride it out until he’s gone.
Good job first real Lakers fan who not acting like a baby.
Pretty sure they were bad when he got there. Ya he’s made some poor choices like pushing for Westbrook. Other than that it’s been on the team form low balling coach’s to bad draft selections
they were bad but they had great young talent to develop. along comes lechoke and away it goes. no way he would ever actually develop young players.
@@laz0rama pretty sure they took Ingram and ball over taytum and brown. So ya not great. If he never came there the team would be mid at best.
They was a lottery team before LeBron
This how yk people are followers with trends instead of thinking for themselves
They was a lottery team with LeBron and didn't sniff the playoffs until AD showed up
@@mr.perfect1749 and who got Ad there? And why did AD wanna be there? Oh ok
@@kh23234then why has LeBron not been able to get more playmakers in LA? Plenty of guys have turned down offers to join your hero.
@@kh23234 AD didn't come as a free agent, he was traded
@@kh23234 by saying that you 1. admitted Bron needs help from better players. 2. Lakes were a lottery team with Bron. Weak and weak.
I’ll take it a step further. Not only does LeBron need to go. But it’s time for the Buss family to sell the team.
LAL's GM has same problems as GMs dealing with stars like Luka, Giannis, Kawhi, Curry Joker. The difference is Buss/Rob/Kupchecks are inept! Just Blame LBJ
Jeanie making all wrong moves just protect draft pick them using picks fix bad choices.
Nope. Shes making all the wrong moves to appease Lebron and keep him on the lakers
Imagine wasting a roster spot on a guy who averaged 4 points in college without a training camp 😂 My Lakers have been focused on winning the social media title since Jeanie took over, and if winning happens along the way so be it.
Buss R Paul and the father son duo are already planning a ceremony to celebrate history being made. They’re going to merchandise this record to death for millions (perhaps a billion).
u sound dumb
Los Angeles Lakers Ownership: The Buss Family, The Rambis Family and The James Family.
And Rich Paul ….
As a lifetime Laker fan, I said the Lakers were fv@$3d they day Lebron became a Laker. They sold out the future for 1 title and a decade of nothing. Jeanie had to try to make it her team. Too greedy.
💯💯💯 Spent his career warr vs Lakers. Now in laker colors running franchise to his liking. Overpayed even in decline. A circus. Hangin my colors up til he leave!!
True
It’s 383 miles from SF to LA. I’ve driven and flown it many times. How on earth could you think SF is 700+ miles north of LA? Dude has no concept of geography and it sounds like he lives in SoCal. The warriors aren’t located at the border in crescent city.
As a laker fan I been saying we should have been traded lebron!
Funny ya say that this my team & as long as rob is gm this organization ain’t going anywhere bron or no bron
I'm from Ohio this is what he does
I'm not from Miami. This is what he does.
I mean, didn’t they win a title and were just in the conference finals ?
Yes, however Petunia should have had the team ready to put that pressure on LeBron to give them a discount. Rob was w proactive enough.
By the way, LeBron only sees himself & then himself some more. That's it.
Pelinka*
The Leblakers
We've been saying that since he got here.
Typical Burger King Things🫠🍔👑
That's true
The media should have been in unison 2 years ago in trying to persuade the Lakers to trade Lebron and get their franchise back from LeKlutch Sports! But unfortunately they’re part of the reason that people think that Lebron is un-tradable!
Everyone is blaming LeBron James, he can't do all this without the Lakers saying "Ok"....
Without Lebron, attendance drops! All about money now!
@@MrMytube60So what does it mean to be a Laker fan if they need Bron so much? Apparently, the Purple and Gold never meant anything in history until Bron got there. OK.
@@Avarice-Zero you have a short Laker memory my friend! Think about what you just said!
@MrMytube60 No, you re-read what you first wrote. Lol! I'm saying the Lakers aren't OKC. They can let Bron go, and they'll still have the Laker faithful who remember rings with Kobe, Shaq, Magic, Kareem, West......
You're talking as if they'll lose viewership. No, they won't. They'll probably gain more from all the Lakers fans who got off the bus waiting for the driver to change shifts.
Let’s be Real Lakers been a joke of a franchise since 2011
LEBRON AND RICH PAUL = POWER
One man that avoids all smoke 💨---> Rob Palinka. Man’s job is as safe as a Supreme Court justice
Rob keeps his job as long as LeBron gets what he wants
Rob was a great GM last year. Now it's all about him. Even if he's fired, Bron is still gonna want to do what he wants to do. He's done in Cleveland twice and tried to do it in Miami but was blocked. That's why he left. He's now doing it in LA. Bro, look at his track record.
😂😂😂The Lebron hate is strong. Lakers sucked since 2013
The lakers has a good roster before lebron came and they were still building the team. Some analysts make it seem like lebron saved the lakers. I am ready for him to leave.
Beat L.A.
Wow now thats hate
The NBA won't be the NBA till LeBron is gone
Its so funny the owner can just say no buddy but he’s a $ maker
Yall coverage is whats wrong with the Lakers. Barely mention Dalton Knecht,AD or any of the other guys. Lebron Lebron Lebron give it up talk basketball.
Lakers wont be Lakers until Rob is gone not lebron
Dude he’s Lebron lol
In the conference finals just a year ago. So much for facts. Just get paid to talk trash. Good work if you can get it. Skip Bayless type of thought process, however.
@@randallmadison9910 yawn Bron stan
CAVS , HEAT , LAKERS ALL WON WITH LEBRON
LA is about 400 miles from SF, not 1,000.
Lebron and AD had about the BEST year you could have asked from them last Year and by far the biggest issue was NO Show D'Angelo Russell. So the Lakers and FANS would be more then happy to get that same type of production in the upcoming season. Exactly what top level NBA Pro has taken LESS. So what you are saying, NO team has a Top Level Player that is concerned with winning a NBA Title because NONE of them is going to take LESS then the MAX.
This team hasn't sniffed FIFTY wins in four years....with two Top 12 players??? That's on the bench players???
The Lakers weren’t the Lakers BEFORE LeBron got there….lol
Cut The Shid‼️
The thing is Lebron wants to please everyone when it just rubs people the wrong way. We love him here in Cleveland and he still baits us to this day about coming back or not. He uses his power to get what he wants plan and simple. Sorry laker fans I feel for you guys man.
The man won you a championship
@@s3lzy did I say I wasn’t grateful lmao ? I am but he also said he would stay here and build a dynasty lmao
Le 🗑️ as always
The Lakers are done.
Nba is scripted Hollywood entertainment
Thats why only the lakers are talked about 247
Rob don’t have a backbone !
Yeah, right.... after winning a championship you trade your number 1 and 2 players. I guess the Celtics will be trading their 1 & 2 players this off season.
The Bulls dismantled the entire team after they won THREE IN A ROW
Guess you didn't think about the age factor. Yelp rates your comment zero stars.
Why are you mad what free agents are left. You act like there’s some good players left
The players that were available literally said "no" to Lebron. Its reported and out there.
Fakers are a joke
Does anyone remember the lakers post Kobe/before lebron? And LeBron can’t just take a massive pay cut even if he wanted to. The NBA would not let him sign for 20 million a year
There is nothing in the CBA that prevents Lebron from taking less money. He could take the Vet Minimum if he wanted.
Only 2 years separated Kobe’s last game and Lebron’s 1st game in LA. It took 6 years for the Spurs to be shitty. 6 years for OKC. 2 decades for Sota. Several seasons for Dallas. 5 years for Boston. But you need a proper rebuild. The Lakers were on that route w Magic calling thee shots. Then pretty much the whole team was traded for AD. Then they traded their future for Russ.
@@rackball5858 lakers pretty much sucked/no buzz 2011-2019
@@danielt6689 nah he couldn’t lol. Unless he truly was like a 10 ppg or locker room guy. It would cause havoc man
@@WesdenzelTV There is NOTHING in the CBA that ties ppg to salary. Point out where in the CBA that mandates the min a player must take.
All the Faker fans were saying “the lakers win the offseason!!” last year and they got curb stomped in the first round. Lebronze fans are the biggest cappers on the internet.
Jason Smith don't be goofy...first of all the Lakers are notorious for being cheap asf so the max he got of 104 million is pocket change compared to the endorsement money and investment money hell in actuality the Lakers could never pay Lebron what he justly deserves and again Lakers management is cheap asf that's why they can't get anyone so how is that Lebrons fault? Gtfoh
AD is SOFTER than drugstore cotton
Laker fans are a bunch of spoiled crybabies. The Phoenix Suns would love 2 have LeBron and a chip.SMDH.
Yall so weird. Yall want him to take less and blame him if he doesn't. No, this isn't the front offices fault at all, they don't need to do their job.
Oh yea, and you youngins that didn't keep up with LAL pre LeBron, don't let them rewrite history for you, Free Agents were turning down the Lakers in the 2010s, just check out Free Agency from 2012 - 2019.
Wait what? Why would we blame him for not taking less? I wanted him to take vet min so we could get a Pg type player. But no one wants to play with Lebron
@@baldeagle4710 Why would any legit star want to play on a borderline play-in team? Lakers are cooked.
A real strong coach like Riley or Popovich would have benched his sorry backside.
1:16 what a trash conversation. It’s on the Lakers to say no to him. Why they don’t do it? I remember LeBron wanted Ty Lue and the Laker’s Front Office said NO. LeBron wanted a trade last trade deadline, LA’s front office didnt do it.
LeBron James is NOT winning anymore championships while he is in LA. Lakers are a BOTTOM SEED TEAM with 2 BOTTOM SEED PLAYERS in LeBron and AD with a clueless coach in JJ Redick. Another disappointment next season so Laker nation get ready for it.
I use to be a huge lebron fan until he pulled this bullshit
Dudes are clowns online bron is not the owner of the lakers do people get that the owner could have got out of the bron business whenever she wanted too stop blaming the player
F that the NBA won’t be better until that B is gone bron is trash 🗑️
What’s wrong with the owner of the Lakers taking less oh, you guys don’t understand that
Not just lebron but also Jeanie buss she a terrible owner
Once lebron gone they won’t go to the playoffs 12 straight seasons best believe nba players watching how the media and fans treat bron in la and won’t go to that toxic franchise
What? lol nba players aren’t going to LA because of the Lebron circus show.
Lakers were a lottery team before LeBron came. These talking heads....smh
Lakers had a good young core - now they are a reality tv show with a bubble ring and IST banner where they fired the coach - it’s a clown show with LeBron. He is the most overrated fraud of all time.
@LouSeph facts and he wouldn't even have made the playoffs in the past few seasons if not for the nba's front office help gifting his team a record margin of free throws while barely calling fouls on Laker players
No problem. Every team has to rebuild sooner or later. The lakers will certainly be one of the most profitable teams as Lebron perpetuates the scoring record and makes history when his son checks in the game for 30-60- or 90 seconds.
They were a lottery team even after he arrived. Only until AD and special circumstances in the bubble did they win. Haven't done anything since
Lakers will be the “Lakers” again I.e. worst record in the league Kobe’s last 5 years after LeBron leaves.
Man Lebron had 5 hall of fmaers on the same team one year and two all stars and didn’t make the playoffs in 21-22
@@robmc.3361 Correct answer.
All old as dirt and hurt but that don’t matter right
I WAS a Laker fan from 1975 to 2019. When the fungus from Ohio arrived, I happily root against this franchise. They are now, a 3rd rate, C list, full on clown show. When the fungus is gone? Let me know, until then I hope you lose every game.
@@stephenmauriellomortgage that team be in Utah spot . U forget traded away ad pass them by. That to date Lakers best trade .
What pelican got nothing more players traded than drafts
💩
🤡
You sound like a fool, LA fan I don't think so. Before Lebron turned up, LA was a laughing stock he made you relevant again. The only time you were spoken about in the previous 5 years was when Kobe turned up to watch a game lol. SMDH In 6 years, Won a Ring - LA 1st in 10 years. 4 trips to the playoffs, made a Conference final - 1st time after a 6 years drought. Ask the Clippers and Kevin Durant how it feels to be ring less. GTFOH Considering Leb3on and Ad injuries and the nightmare Westbrick trade, count our lucky stars. SMDH
Do you mean the Lakers were the Lakers 'before' LeBron got there?????? LOL. PLEASE... They were in LAST place before LeBron got there. Stop hating.
Keep J-offing to your LeBron poster and defending him online. I’m sure he’ll be by any day now to adopt you as his son and get you an NBA contract as a way of saying thank you.
Grown men shouldn’t be groupies for other grown men
@@DerekRitli-wh1xw
Did they have the worst record in the league for like 3 years before he got there
As a huge lebron fan growing up this is sadly true. I could always excuse him calling all the shots and the players he wants and even when he goes on twitter and sends “ cryptic” messages because his talent and value warrants it. But these shenanigans lately topped off with his son being drafted and getting a contract immediately just makes it hard to like the dude as of late. He deserves exactly what he gets with this team
The Lakers will get back to the promise land before he retires then they will be irrelevant for another 10 years. Stop nitpicking athletes. It’s weird.
It is kind of crazy for a guy in his 22 nd season and a billionaire, whose legacy could be helped a ton by showing he is a team guy and a guy wanting rings. He could play for a 10 million and allow for real help to come in to win. Instead he hamstrings the team. He clearly only cares about gaining more longevity stats, not winning.
Have you finished cleaning the toilets yet. 🤡
Your way of thinking is sooo Rob Parker 🤣
No it won’t Lebron gives what the Lakers want Drama and Attention if Lebron leaves the Lakers will go back into being irrelevant
Lakers get stars regardless 😂 this isn’t Cleveland 😅😅
They're irrelevant now 😂
@@seriouslystewarts3537Remember when Kobe retired they were irrelevant until they got LeBron James did y’all forget about that that was years of irrelevancy
@@AggravatedMan365 But yeah everybody’s talking about them every single day I’m talking about LeBron every day? 🙄
@@flyguy7825They weren't a playoff team after Kobe until AD got there
yet nobody went there after kobe or really during kobe but it’s bron 🤣🤣🤣
Bron has 4 rings, 4 mvp, 40k+ points, 11k+ ast, 11k+ ast. That's HISTORY. Don't blame LeBron for bad team management.
lol, I’m not sure but Lebron putting pressure on management to make roster changes and coaching changes or he will leave the team is on him. What he has done in history on the court and his numbers accrued are beside the point. What it does point to is the reason he has had so many losses in the playoffs. Lastly if you are going to throw out meaningless stats you should include some meaningful ones, like most 4th qtr turnovers in the playoffs, most missed shots in playoff 4th qtrs ever. Things that actually show his impact.
Lakers will become irrelevant once LeBron's gone.... With this ownership, with this FO.... Reeking of incompetency....
You kiddin...😂😂😂
You entitled Laker fans deserve 25 yrs of no playoffs....😂
You're right they won't have the nba's front office rigging games just for the Lakers to make the playoffs like they've been doing for the past few seasons
They are already irrelevant, all the talk is about a second rounder that may average 1.8 ppg
Lmao what about Kobe last years. 5 straight season no playoffs. What about when Kobe retired they went 2 years in a row no free agent singing. Stop the bs.
The difference is we knew what that was and we weren’t told it was something totally different, the Lakers knew they were on the downside of a contending run that brought them two titles and deep playoff run as the organization’s best ever player entered his golden years, but nice whataboutism you did there.
Lakers didn't sniff the playoffs after Kobe until AD wore a Lakers uniform LeBron wasn't good enough to lead a team in the west to the playoffs without another top 5 player he's overrated
@@mr.perfect1749 they didn’t even come close to the playoffs or landing a star free agent until LeBron signed.
Kobe was a REAL Laker...
HE was drafted by the LAKERS
Lebron is a RENTAL
There is a difference between being a Lakers fan and being a LeBron fan at the moment Lakers fans are tired of LeBron.
Lebron is not the Goat.and is a Horrible Role model
Lebron single handedly ruined the rep of this franchise it’s hilarious. Clown show
The Lakers didn't make the playoffs for several years before lebron. They had kobe why did they suck
Kobe’s career essentially ended in April 2013 when he tore his Achilles. They made the playoffs every year before that.
This is soooooo stupid. They last won in 2010 and Kobe was holdong the team hostage for 4 seasons. What are yall talking about?!
Jeanie Buss must Go you don’t be afraid or cowardly to criticize this unqualified woman owner you criticize the men owners don’t give her a pass she’s the problem
Yur right the Lakers won’t b the Lakers again until Lebron leaves because they will go back 2 being Trash again and not being in the post season again with bad attendance and becoming irrelevant again Y’all hate Lebron because he’s in the Goat discussion and Kobe isn’t RIP the Hate and jealousy is other worldly 🤦♂️🤷♂️
Yall cry about lebron everyday
Because he's annoying af and a hypocrite 🤷
I don't agree with it but it's kind of their job. 😅😅 Who else can they talk about??
Straight facts
