Someone said Malone is playing chess while Darvin is smashing together his LeBron and AD action figures and making noises with his mouth lmao
Lmao 😂💀
Delusional lakers fans. Darvin has made every possible adjustment. Gm fault for not signing bigger body than ad for jokic
Credit to the someone then !

The Nuggets are such gentlemen. They always give the Lakers a head start before they slaughter them 🤣
Makes us clippers fans so happy
A 7 point win isn’t a slaughter tf

Perfectly said.
These games aren’t blowouts which makes it even more frustrating I’d prefer a blowout.
“ I’m waiting” 😂😂😂😂😂😂
I went straight to the comments lol
He was sooo mad lmfao
SA hilarious lol
Insufferable, no one cares about his face. Telling them to get the highlights off the screen. What a joke.

Lebron got back cut by Gordon for at least 10 of his points - but yeah let’s blame D-Lo for everything
That wasn’t the only reason they loss tho d Lo with the 0 points 😂😂😂😂😂😂
Man this was exactly my point... Lakers were scoring enough to be in the game ! But not stopping a guy who literally does not shoot 3s or even reg shots (all dunks and layups) was the real reason they lost ! They blame everyone else, but the 1 guy that kept losing him on the baseline
Bro Dlo had 0points are we really talking
Thank you, We need to start talking about how bad Lebron is at off-ball defense at this point in his career. I’ve seen him give up easy back cuts countless times this series because he’s caught ball watching and then after almost each given up bucket he’ll point at someone else and get upset with his teammates that the bucket happened 😂
Lebron can do no wrong. Everyones fault but Lebrons.
Russell was booking his cancun vacation during that huddle 😅
Somebody said he was checking his parlays 😂 he took his own unders
He probably was 😮
Klay is old and got injured before. Russell is inconsistent player and can’t perform in playoffs.
😂😂 nice one
Dluo isn’t a player that can be relied in any tough matchup in playoff series.
It baffles me that no one really understands why the Lakers can't beat Denver. They have no center! AD is not a natural center. He's said he prefers power forward. But they force him to play at center. Why did they beat Denver in 2020? Dwight Howard and Javale Mcgee, two athletic defensive centers.
What about the rest? Kcp, rondo, caruso?.... You have LeBron, AD, and some nights AR... Dlo plays for the other team, the coach doesn't Coach......
It's AD'S fault Dwight Howard ain't on the team anymore. Rajon Rondo would've given points instead of a doughnut that DLO gave the Lakeshow. Heck the average Joe out there couldve scored one bucket lol.
@@user-vr8mv1ci6d how is it ad fault if he doesn't want to play center?

@@user-vr8mv1ci6dlebum stan blaming everyone but his king. Typical
Dlo wasn't the only one who checked out. You could see that James checked out around 4-3 minutes left. James just started throwing 3 up and didn't try to run any plays. And that 20 point turn around from the game before wasn't on Dlo, that's on the hole team.
The Lakers were up in the first half. I walked away to put the kids to bed knowing when i csme back the Nuggets would be up at least 10. I was right. 😂
Bruh... chill😂
😂😂
I ain’t even bother lmao just went to bed
Same here, I hopped on call of duty during half time. Came back down by 9 😭😭😭
you a genius!
Klay: I scored 0 points in a close out game
Dlo: My 0 points were more impressive
He got 0 with less shots that’s way more impressive lmfao😂
Klay us a proven winner, no comparison. Nice try though. Lol!
Ok so we blame DLo... that's cool cause 0pts is unacceptable! But man... Who is Guarding Aaron Gordon??? How did dude manage to get over 25pts? From dunks and layups??? Who's man kept leaving him LOL No blame to Lebron???
lol Klay 0 not in the books Dlo 0 is 😂😂
They’re cousins
This doesn’t happen in a Kobe, Mj, or even D.Wade huddle .

I'm sick and tired of blaming everyone but LeBron
How is it lebron fault tho? Lebron ain’t 25, so u can’t expect the same thing out him. Nuggets just a superior team
Lebronze the leader . His body language and mentality says it all . Excuses
The guy averaging 26 pts 7 plus asts & rebounds it’s his fault?
@@tyg4328 yeah it’s his fault . He’s a supposed savant , and self proclaimed goat right ? He’s the leader of his team . So if they get swept , he’s the reason . Poor leadership .
I agree that’s a every year they blame Westbrook one year now Dlo lol Labrum just old and needs to retire those old legs got to many miles on the and it’s showing will somebody tell the truth
Aaron Gordon scored more points than Reaves, Hachimura and DLo combined and he probably dribbled the ball twice all night. Oh, he guarded Lebron as well.
He did everything you said, admittedly….. Lebron scored 26 tho and added Rebs and ASSTS…. What D-LO and REEVES ANNND Hachimura failed to do should be highlighted
@@william-lloydgarrison Lakers cannot match Nuggets from the third guy all the way to the end of the bench. Lebron+AD already average 58.7 pts/gm this series but they probably need to average 70 pts/gm to win 4 in a row, good luck with that.
@@william-lloydgarrison Joker is a team player, that's why.
He's a leader and cares about winning over personal accomplishments - Lakers would have won game 2 if Lebron wasn't so focused on the stories saying he vanished in the 4th Q in game 1, so instead of continuing to feed AD he tries to load up his own stat sheet, making AD go cold.
AG scored 29 on like 5 dribbles, with Joker and Murray drawing so much attention that the others had space to feed, James doesn't defend, he doesn't have any gravity to give DLo and others space, and even if he did, he often just walks up, hands them the ball, then stands back and says "now do something", and is surprised that his teammates often have off nights...
@@chrisyang05 I’m a Knicks fan first, but a fan of greatness, period. At NO TIME did I suggest they would or COULD win 4 in a row… I don’t disagree with what u said about “…from 3rd man down…”
@@chrisyang05See you actually understand the game and it’s so refreshing cause all the casuals just wanna blame Lebron. Lebron and AD have been good this series but the role players have been straight up atrocious and gotten completely outplayed by the nuggets role players. For the Lakers to even have a small chance the lakers role players needed to be good and they have been awful so yea you’re right the lakers are just hoping Lebron and AD just go off which is just not a formula to win games against the best team in the league.

What else is new?
Denver chemistry is on another level. The first 5 of Nuggets are just perfect fit. Jokic,Murray,Gordon,Porter and KCP.
And that 's cuz the Nuggets haven't played great as we know they can and yet someone posted a video saying that lebron showed up to practice 7 hours earlier before the game and yet Lebron makes a comment "it's just basketball
I wish Bruce Brown was still there. But he chose the money over potential dynasty aspirations.
We know the starting 5 😂😂
Sure Denver is good, but Miami beat them twice. Lakers are just trash…. Can’t even beat them once!!! Denver is great! But u can’t even beat them once!
@@JayCity10You know he has regrets. Everytime he comes back to Denver... he feels the love and misses it.
"I'm waiting" 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Russel behaving like that, just goes to show the lack of leadership LeBron has. Plz let's not make excuses.
Everybody LeBron has played with has spoken highly of him as a leader. Even the analysts that hate him the most. You can’t lead guys to want to be focused. You have to WANT to be focused. But sure you know what it takes to lead in the NBA..

@@mrmillennium2697you lakers fans wanted everyone. It doesn't matter if the other teams wanted your players or not hahaha delusional
Dlo now understands how Russell Westbrook felt playing in with the Lakers
Difference is that Russ gave it his all in LA. He just plays too recklessly and cannot shoot.
D-Lo doesn’t always plays with full effort and cares more about social media than basketball. He’s another diva like BS!
Westbrook actually showed up and performed, Dlo not so much
Don’t you ever mention Dlo in the same sentence as a hall of fame player ever again.
Bro, he had ZERO points.
He was there before Russ so that doesn't make sense
Crazy how before the season, everyone was talking up Reaves as the third option, but everyone blaming Dlo
Great show.👍
"I'M WAITING!" SAS Wildin..
He's probably rude to his staff and everyone else
Such a diva fr 🤣🤣🤣
💀
It's the Stephen A syndrome. He thinks he's somebody important because he gives his opinions on sports. 😂😂
He thinks he’s at home with his TH-cam staff. These people can snap their fingers and get you off the air overnight. Chill w/ the attitude. A DLO topic ain’t worth all this.
Kills me everytime when he does this😂😂
WHY ARE WE KEEP TALKING ABOUT THE LAKERS INSTEAD OF THE NUGGETS GREATNESS?
Every single video is from the Lakers perspective
Because everyone is expecting the Lakers to lose and LA is the biggest market in sports. Try to keep up.
@@TheHuskyK9they cry the same tune every year idk how they don’t get tired of it
Because nobody cares about the nuggets
@@TheHuskyK9 In all of the sports or just basketball? Cause if we look at all of the sports Real Madrid makes Lakers look like some backwater village club. And talking about cities and sports markets London has beaten LA too with Arsenal, Chelsea, Tottenham, West Ham.
Because who cares about the city of Denver 😂😂😂
Stephen A. Was like I'm waiting 😂😂😂😂
Dlo reminds me of Dembele in Barcelona, same sickness.
"rules are different for LeBron James" That's the problem! JWill. Rules are different and they are still losing.
i know right
Right. Why should LeBron get passes while everyone else gets the Heat. LeBron is apart of the team and he needs to get the Heat as well. Secondly, the Lakers wanted to get rid of D-Lo for a whole straight year. That man feels like they ain’t checking for him so why check for them. Lastly, when the Nuggets sweep the Lakers the debate will finally be dead with LeBron being the GOAT.
Most of Aaron Gordon’s points came against Lebron “It’s just basketball” James
Facts. Lol
Aaron gordon wasn’t doing anything crazy just cutting to the basket lebron just always ball watching. That’s how u know he’s getting old
You guys are 1d1ots expecting the oldest guy in the league to score 30 a night and play excellent defence too, who has ever done that, use your tw0 bra1n c3lls
The lack of pride, this man had the nerve to be pissed he didn’t get a DPOTY award 😂😂😂 can’t make this ish up
LeBron is old bro, that's how Denver play in the whole year. Aaron Gordon is just too good in cutting to the basket. Everyone knows LeBron is lazy defender

Stop it! Y’all said the lakers were contenders and won the offseason. This is not only D Lo’s fault.
Hiw are they contenders when they're barely in the playoffs?
@@solidsnake8331 I don’t think they were contenders. I’m restating what the media said
They said they were contenders at the beginning of the season
The man had zero points. A basket a quarter would’ve won them the game. He isn’t the only reason bc LeBron needs to chill a little on hero ball and the Lakers can protect the ball better but DLo was pathetic last night
@@solidsnake8331you lebron twerkers said boy stop playing
Back to back sweeps
So no one is going to call out Hachimura for only scoring 3 and 5 points in the last two games??

He was texting his mom: I'm in trouble! Get me outta here! 🤣
Every time dlo shot he was lucky to graze the net. Dudes buns
They not calling no plays for DLo. He gets the scraps. If he’s not included in the play by play, how can he get a rhythm?
Rs I’m wondering the same thing. He plays best with the ball in his hands. Not standing still in the corner. But whatever, I feel bad for him. The ad dlo pick n roll has been money all season n they didn’t do it once last night shi insane
They to busy pandering to that old man @@AnuThePoet9
Agreed. He played only 24 mins in G3. He went 0-7 and 6 of them were from the 3 PT line. He needed easier baskets & more mins to get back into rhythm.
Cmon guys, we should appreciate the times we are living in, because your Le goat is making history before our very eyes ....
Never blame lebron it's insane he let gordon get 30 on him and was 1 of 6 from 3 but let's blame the role player like he's a superstar as usual lmao
Stop it, dlo having possessions and actually contributing would’ve had a whole different outcome. Maybe less ball possession for Gordon? Blame the problem in hand, it’s domino effect from there.
FACTS
@@TommyCruz-ec9xv lebron played 10 minutes in the 3rd quarter took 2 shots and made 1 shot, the lakers had a 5pt lead when the 3rd quarter started. How much of that was DLo fault? Stop making excuses for Lebum James when he comes up short because that’s what happened and then he statpadded in the 4th quarter to make his stats look a little better so he can avoid the blame
@@zacheryseymour7297 so when he scores in the 4th he is stat padding but when he doesn’t score in the 3rd he’s trash🤣🤣🤣I’ve watched basketball for 30+ years and Lebron is the only star I’ve seen where ppl say he should get all the blame despite a teammate going 0-7 like DLO just did🤣🤣u Lebron haters r hilarious

lebron's attitude ruins every single game. head shaking, complaining, shrugging at a teammates mistakes. you're up 5 complaining, then you don't get back on defense, turn the ball over, and then all of a sudden you're down by 10. absolutely ridiculous. the body language is if I dont win Ima blame you and I cannot be wrong. Incoming all the lakers fans asking people to count their rings and how Lebron is no1 best ever. This way we all can blame DLO again Hurray!

Yea 0 points is unacceptable. That being said, blaming a player that only took 7 shots is crazy! Rui only 4 shot attempts (Shot 50%), Dinwiddie only 8 shot attempts, Gabe Vincent only 4 shot attempts (Shot 50%) and prince only 8 shot attempts and they All played 20+ minutes!

He took 13 shots, 0/6 FG and 0/7 3pt
Agreed 💯 They talking about D lo like he's a All Star who they brought in as trio smh
Exactly what I’m saying, example is Embid who playing on almost one leg did what he had to do to win and scored 50pts. Lebron or AD is gonna have to have that type of game to beat the nuggets. Enough blaming the role players every game

Only guy better than Gordon is a healthy Kawhi. He's super underrated both ends of the court, but then again, most guys on the Nuggets not named Jokic are all underrated. As of right now, I'll take Gordon over Kawhi just on health alone. Denver is killing iso basketball, so Kawhi having the iso edge over Gordon means absolutely nothing when you can have a teammate like Jokic AND Murray.

For me it’s kinda ironic, cause back in the day when we were having conversations amongst best bigs between Jokic,Embiid, KAT,and Giannis. I was saying Jokic,Giannis,KAT,and Embiid amongst talent wise(people thought I was insane to put Embiid to last) and was saying Lebron should team with Jokic n Murray when he was gonna move from Cleveland. Now it turns out to be his biggest Achilles now, wow really astonishing to me.
depending which road you turn down no i dont want to be in La portland phili or new york
AD, LeBron, and AR all scored over 20 points. Nobody else on the team scored over 10… This is the third game where there has been no second-half adjustments… that’s extremely telling
You shouldn’t even count AR 20 most of those points were in Garbage Time, he was bad for a majority of that game.
Dlo should score at least 10 points he just always folds when u need him most. Plus he’s a cone on defence
Ar played good literally one game and it was decent not good stop over hyping him his not it he was way better last year

This DLo thing has gotten blown out of proportion. The game was over and they all knew it. This is a scaoegoat for the fact Darvin Ham has lost the locker room. This is not about DLo 😂
Darvin Ham? This is on LeCon not leading his team. Everyone knows that he's the de facto coach. LeCon routinely drags azz and doesn't defend and occasionally blocks a shot from behind because he knows that Sportscenter loves that. His body language also speaks volumes. Whenever the Nuggets would score, he slumped his shoulders and had his head down. Zero heart.
When are you guys gonna realize there is no coaching a LeBron lead team. LeBron just goes out there and dictates everything. The Lakers have no system at all and that’s Lebrons fault no one else’s.

@@dustierbottoms 10 points is more than 0 points (D'Lo) FYI.
The good part about this is when the lakers are out the playoffs it’s finally go open up this show to talk about other teams more. I wanna hear more about the younger upcoming stars on other teams.
Bron needs to hang it up and let the young boys have the light already
Unfortunately somehow someway they will still talk about Lebron & the Lakers smh
All they will talk about is what will be next from Bronze and his son.
They'll still somehow fit in the Lakers with the Olympics and off season moves and adding every free agent plus Steph curry to the roster.
they'll probably talk about LeBron's next door neighbor and AD's favorite hair stylist..
Stephan A: he scored as much as we did on the bench 😅 (talking about D’lo)
How is u allowed to have a phone during the game
Like Charles Barkley said it always someone else's fault when they lose 😆
So when D-Lo has a good game (game 2) and Lebron could’ve hit a wide open 3 to win the game, still it’s D-Lo’s fault they are 0-3.
When Lakers had double digit leads every game, I sn’t that when we say “Superstars” close the games?? Always moving the goal posts when he brings in ratings.
Lebron had a whole red carpet of space too.😂
It was a poor choice by LeBron in game but no NBA starter should ever have zero points. He’s soft and should’ve done better. A basket a quarter would’ve won them the game
The Lakers can't play defense. Is that simple.
How was Dlo in game 1?
@@randalljr17 I agree, he’s not playing well, but to say he’s the problem when they’ve held double digit leads just isn’t true. Your best players bring home wins and besides some stay padding, Lebron and AD haven’t shown up in 4th quarters to control the game and bring it home.
I thought ham had everyone checked in and paying attention to details? Was AD right? Because it looks like a starter isnt in the huddle
This series is the prefect example of what happens when a team gives up on their coach that man can’t even convince that team to play a highschool basketball team at this point blow it up
Bro said Austin Reaves showed up ? He actually just reads the box score lmao. Reaves was 4/13 with 2 mins left. He made 4 straight baskets in garbage time so it looked like he balled out 😂
Thank you.... Reaves been Trash... Dlo is dlo... Ham is not a coach..... Ad has to guard 1-5.... This team is hot trash.... They seem good because they have 2 top 10 players.... But this ain't the 90s... Now it's 5v5 fr....
But honestly, a competent coach could do something... Atleast call a timeout... Tell dlo to not shoot 20x or since he can't do anything on offense get out of here....
@@reimixo facts lebron had no help. It's literally 1v5 out there.
@@chan13153 ad hands down outplayed lebron every game so how can it be 1v5 for him
They show up when Lebron is gone because his presence is affecting his teammates negatively. Lakers beat Boston and Bucks without Lebron. They play beautiful basketball without Lebron
As a Nuggets fan, I can't begin to describe how elated it makes me feel to see Stephen A. cry about the Fakers. The Denver Nuggets are the Lakers' DADDY!!
SAS isn't crying literally. He's just appalled by what the Lakers are letting the Nuggets do to theim. AGAIN!
17>1
Yk Stephen a was serious when he said “I’m Waiting!!!”😂
Stephen A on Russell: Me and you were sitting on the set he scored as many points as us 😂
“Wolves got fleeced for DLo !” 🤣🤣
No one wants to talk about Lebrons contract being the reason for Lakers being mid at best
And Jeannie probably will pay him the max if he wants to stay.
He deserves it
He deserves every penny and so does ad, and Vanderbilt. Dlo doesn’t, Reeves doesn’t, rui doesn’t.
😂😂😂 LA wants Stars Tho. They've never built. They Don't know how.
@@LeoorLeonard if he wants to win, he needs to take less, he is old and gasses out, its just facts.
"He scored as much point as us"😂😂😂😂
Dlo be checking that parlay
We knew the DLo blame was coming lol. Anytime you have the name Russell you’re getting blamed 😂😂😂
Naw anytime you score 0 points chump lol telling that bs
Are you trying to say the blame is not justified? He had 0 points. ZERO POINTS. IN A PROFESSIONAL BASKETBALL GAME.
@@lwshamilton44 I blame Dlo for have zero points- you can’t be a starter; on any level…high school, college etc. and not score any points as a starter!
But I don’t blame him for the loss….the lakers got crushed on the rebounds and that’s not on him as a guard, Arron Gordon had a playoff career high 29 points and that’s Lebron’s assignment - Hachimura had 5 points and got lit up by MPJ in the third quarter! So although DLo played horrible he wasn’t the reason they lost!
@@knowEgo This is why you NEVER play with LeBron! When you win, "It's because of LeBron". When he loses, you get 100% of the blame
@@EduardoOliveira-zx9juTHANK YOU. THAT IS SO TRUE.
Well D’Lo, you better call Russ! Ask him how he dealt with being a scapegoat 😂
AD at the 4 Dwight or McGee type bigs rotate at the 5, 3 and D wings. Pelinka this is the formula, Darvin this is the formula. Guaranteed your not getting swept if you didn’t tweak that template from 2020.
He meant that CONSTANTLY 😂
Exact same thing that happened DLO first run in LA, when things get tough he gets pouty
After the national media talked up Lebron and the lakers and some even said they are real contenders, boy is it sweet to watch them get swept again 😂😂😂
Nuggets consistently out-hustled Lakers for offensive rebounds: Game 1: Nuggets 15, Lakers 6 Game 2: Nuggets 9, Lakers 4 Game 3: Nuggets 14, Lakers 8
I love it . I hate lebron
