- The Lakers are in an out of a Play-In spot depending on when you check the standings. It’s a huge fall for a team that made the Western Conference Finals last year. Now there are rumors that LA is about to make a major change and this is a look at what they might do.
- Sport
I watched that entire Lakers Heat game. Darvin Hamm didn’t make them shoot 4-30 from 3.
Why is a big lineup with limited shooting is taking that much 3s to begin with
@@justathought4675 Because it’s the modern nba and you have to take 3’s to be successful? Also, it’s not like it was Jaxson Hayes chucking. Lebron, Taurean Prince, and Reeves were a combined 2/17 with Reeves having the only 2 makes.
@@AaronPlay the heat has Kyle and hero on the court and bam is undersized to not play big in that game to at least put them in foul trouble or just wear them out is pretty slow…..also twolves are making one more 3 a game than the lakers but still has the best record in the west
You know that mindset is 80% on the NBA right?
@@justathought4675 Yes, and if the Wolves shoot 13% from 3 they will also loose games.
Lebron teams have been getting crazy trades and free agents every year since 2015
2014 Wiggins for Love
@@reedrasaan in the end i think wiggins did more for the warriors than love for the cavs. love looked like a grandpa with his back pain
@@crizzleyo815 it was about equal tbh, both important pieces for chips
😂 it's funny cause the dudes they trade for be saying the always wanted to be a Laker growing up then gets shipped out a season later nobody on that team is safe besides ad and bron
Miami Heat Sweet Baby Ray came through
“This guy had to accept cookies to find the lakers in the standings” 😂😂😂 subscribed
Classic original n funny asf
So basically a typical Lebron year
Best ever but never ever enough help 😂
LeQuit James 😂😂😂
@@NateO123swept by the nuggets but can still play lol
Every season in Jan it's the same thing. For about a month before the trade deadline the media and many of these youtube channels tell everyone lebron needs more help.
@@trumpameri163850 years old?
LeBron wanted sposltra out of Miami. He didn't respect him. Pat Riley said no. This is a pattern for lebron.
Lebron learned to respect Spo after that. Ham is genuinely just ass.
@@niklasmirrazeghi3560He didn't respect him still thats 1 reason why he left, granted the other stars were in decline, but the lack of absolute power forced him out
And Spoelstra never win anything after LeBron left 😪😪😪
Spo never won anything after Bron left
Pat, Spo, Bron, and everyone else on that team said that isn't true tho lmao
I’ve never seen a mediocre team get so much coverage
Ever seen the Cowboys?
Ever heard of the Knicks?
@@AlejandroRamirez-rx1py… nothing mediocre about them so jokes on u !! Horrible comparison 🤡
Real facts smh
@@KKOPPONG knicks get coverage? Knicks are average? How casual are you?
Putting Marcus Morris as Robert Covington has got to be an advanced engagement tactic 😂 genius.
they should hire Rondo as an assistant coach
I could have sworn Rondo had just gotten hurt playing for the Warriors though
@@deathstarstallionwhat? You mean Chris Paul?
@@kkent4174he meant rondo tf
@@kkent4174 no I saw the video. He got hurt going for a rebound that Jadev Ivey ended up getting I believe. Saw his face, it was Rondo
Need to get Schroder back along with Siakam. Dennis was fire for the Lakers when they needed to slash, push the pace, and create space off the dribble. And he could hit a reliable spot up 3. Right now they just have a bunch of carbon copy forward/guards that don't bring any standout abilities to the table.
They should have let go of DLo and kept Schroder..
Schroder will NEVER be a starting PG on a title contender. Not unless you surround him with 3 all-stars (at least) & a loaded bench.
@@kevinlakeman5043 He doesn't need to start. Keep Austin out there and Schroder can floor general the second unit.
And he was a good defender
How tf would you get Schroder and siakam ? While keeping reaves . I don’t even see how that happens if reaves is part of the trade
Not to mention Spol only survived cause the Heat front office doesnt bend to lebron and its one of the reasons he left.
yall gotta be a different type of stupid
But Pat Riley said it was the media that changed the narrative. LeBron didn't ask to fire Spo at all.
We drafted Napier for him and he still left 😭
he wanted to bring one home and he did that. idk why everyones flaming him for it.
@@StormS2Nthats what he wants you to think tou think he wouldve came back if they didn't have that #1 pick?
They should have retained Lonnie walker
They should've never let Dwight Howard walk out that door. The GM is an idiot. 20 yrs of watching LeBron with shooters it's worked for 20 yrs. Now you got this GM trying to reinvent the fking wheel.
Lebron lobbied to have Spo fired. Good thing Pat doesn't take BS from anyone.
Trading Reeaves for a role player would be an ass move, but if it's possible to get Murray or Pascal than Lakers should definitely go for it
Do you mean which Murray Jamal,Dejounte or Keegan
@@mrboast2826probably Dejounte
@@mrboast2826def not the first because we can’t get him and the last isn’t on the market. Has to be the middle
@@TheLirJEt86 Dejounte... Seriously 😳 you wanna he fight Lebron or talk sh17 to the team or what...Dude are good player but uncontrollable player
@@mrboast2826 I don’t think they should trade for him, just letting you know which one it was
Lakers should target Terry Rozier in trades. A great shooter not a bad defender would not have to give up Reeves to get him. Scary Terry is a good fit and a very underrated player. Call me crazy but I think with a cheap cost in trade he could be one of a couple trades that could get this Lakers team back to winning and into the playoffs.
Idk if we’d give them Terry without getting Reaves
I doubt you're getting Terry without giving up Reaves especially with how good Terry's been lately
Lamelo Reeves Miller Bridges Williams would be 🎉
Never seen a “Goat” that needs new teammates and a new coach every year.
A lot of coaches recently are doing extremely weird and obviously bad at face value line ups. Hamm, Pop, Kerr, Monty, etc are all running starting 5s that obviously don't make any sense.
Very odd indeed.
broo suns coach rotation is weird too wtf
At this point you can actually say there are 3 things guaranteed in life. Death, Taxes, and LBJ team making a big trade at this time because he needs more help.
The media for the entire month of Jan: "Lebron needs more help." Same thing every single season.
@@roboninja3194been like that since his days in Cleveland and yet people put him as the goat
He bout to retire my bro he gotta do what he gotta do
Always a great day when A.M Hoops uploads
so true
Almost at 500 k man ! Keep grinding . One of the best NBA channels
Cheers
Killing it, bro. Never stop sportscasting ❤
as a REAL laker fan before LBJ, HE is the issue. Get rid of LBJ.
Truth this is the best thing the lakers could do for their future.
The only reason you trade for lebron instead of drafting bronny is because they want to win this year, not next year
It's funny how LeBron fans think they can just give up stuff of little value and get back a "star" in return.
Truth
The cookies part got me😂😂😂
Lue loves his explayer so much that he benched kawhi so Lebum could win that game
That was some funny shit happening in that game. The timeout issues, the sitting of kawhi while the game was their for a w. Just strange but maybe you are right
@@juanio7036 it was strange bro. Lue literally called his last time out to kawhi out😂
love this channel and keep the dope content coming !!! awesome stuff even for the Los Angeles Lakers season
3 of the 4 problems the Lakers have according to this video are because of Lebron... why isn't the first solution to trade him?
Lmao damn I know you’re butt hurts from sick riding
@@skywalker2759He’s right, Lbj constantly causes trouble at the teams he goes to. When they win he’s great and makes his teammates great. When they lose it’s everyone else’s fault and nothing to do with him.. I thought he made his teammates great?

Thank you so much CS!!!
Loving this channel keep the content coming!!
Losing players kcp, rondo, kuz, Dwight and Avery Bradley were huge for the lakers. They need players like that again, tall Lebron sized players that can shoot threes or are able to make plays.
After 2020 idk why they blew that roster up they should have just ran it back
@@jaysouthmusic8230yea it’s insane looking back what they did to get Russ
@@Shlongest902 yup and russ is doing great on the clippers. He just wasn't the right fit for the lakers
@@jaysouthmusic8230Ngl Lakers should've tried to retain Alex Carusso after the bubble season. Dude has evolved into a nightmare on the defensive end.
I miss Schroeder
Darvin Ham after trade and still loses: "Well, we got some new guys, and it'll take time to build continuity"
Lakers hiring Doc Rivers would be absolute suwicide for him. If he wasn't already on the brink of never coaching in the NBA again lol
Doc would grow grey hair even though he's bald
You are so right, it's been our problem all this time, all we need is an accurate triple shooter that can play defense .
Great Upload 👍!! Keep up the good work!!!
@AM Hoops where can you find the podcast?
please do trades about dallas mavericks what they can get what they can give
This is why a lot of people hate Bron. He really does have the voice to make instant trades. I said before that this guy is a bad teammate. Your job is always in threat. Nobody is safe.
And when the team does well it’s all because he played great. When the team fails it’s always everyone else’s fault.
But he tells us that he makes his teammates better…
@@izzy031096 media love dickriding this guy. It's sickening. He's the most toxic player in this generation. Just a handful of bad games and goodbye team
@@izzy031096funny how that works isn’t it
People (trump supporters) hate Lebron because of China and how he somehow is the only one that buys some from there and his political views. No one says this about Durant or the warriors or the clippers, who haves teams more stacked than lebrons ever were. Another bozobtake
@@izzy031096when doesn’t Lebron play great? Seriously though? He’s either the best or 2nd best player ever. Hard to blame him when others can’t shoot and he’s forced to do too much at age 39. It’s crazy
Am Hoops, started listening to the podcast yesterday and its Has better in depth details that we don’t always get to see on the channel. Keep up the good work
Thanks for listening!!!
Congrats on the new Podcast my man! Up and up 💪
As usual we're in the lebron needs more help part of the season. Happens every single season near the end of Dec and all through Jan. 4-5 weeks of the media telling everyone how lebron needs more help right before the trade deadline which is always the 1st week in February. Go back and check this same time last season. The same exact stuff was being said. Been going on for years now and it'll happen next season too. Right after new years we'll start hearing how lebron needs more help.
Lakers fans were praising Hamm last season. But here we go again, as soon as the Lakers start losing there has to be a scapegoat. They did it to Russ and have tried to do it to AD. Now it's Hamm's turn. Lebron never takes any accountability. Always has the finger pointing outwards at whoever he can. People should stop the LeGM nonsense. He's proven he doesn't know how to construct a team. Idky this Casey dude thinks coaching will fix 3 point shooting. If you don't have good shooters firing the coach isn't going to solve that problem. But get ready for the next month being the media telling everyone how any player on the trading block is going to the Lakers.
You know what?, I'm a lebron fan, but the truth is the truth, and your 💯 percent right
nobody was praising ham last year ☠he was playing lonnie walker at center last year, but yeah you mostly right
100% correct. Been saying the same thing for years
@@robdon8994every team makes trades. All contenders make trades. Stop that “I’m a Lebron fan” garbage. He’s 39. They should stay pat?
He’s freaking 39. He should carry a team? Y’all legit know nothing about basketball. What 39 year old Carrie’s a team. Do y’all see the suns and the clippers? Clippers have 4-5 hall of famers. Suns have 3. Like y’all just let all these other teams get stacked and stand Pat? Bozo
Different year but same narrative "LeBron dont have enough help"
Man correct me if I’m wrong but the picture of Robert Covington has gotta be one of the morris brothers right?
LB is nuts. If Bronny wasn't his son no one would be talking about him and we'd see him in Taiwan in a couple years.
Facts. Bronny doesn’t even look good enough to dominate college let alone hang in the nba
@@ry_an.he got minutes coz his dad is lebron ong T.T unwatchable, his little brother is better
Big donations to usc!
😂😂😂true I don’t see what’s so special about Bronny
@@HelloThere-lo3qithat’s what I was thinking but he gets no love from the media. Strange
Can you make a kawhii vid? Im glad hes healthy again
Lakers and Pistons should trade coaches. Monty would get his dream of coaching veteran players and the Pistons would get anybody else.
lol was thinkin the same thing
this is a dope comment.. cause Darvin Ham is a piston champion and who better to motivate the pistons champion.. he's no chancey but still
@@mentalprograming5365 I think the idea was lakers get monty. The pistons get ham & fire him, then hire a new coach.So, detroit gets off of monty's contract
As a piston fan I support this comment!
love your vids
yessir!! keep up the good work
Austin Reeves isn't the best defender but I think he should be considered untradable. Lakers can't just keep trading away talented young assets for veterans that may not mesh with LeBron. Reeves is too important to their chemistry and culture, he's a team player and he has great connection with LeBron in the pick and roll. All they really need is more shooting and could make some minor trades to firm that up... I would love to see them get Doug McDermott from Spurs or Bogdanovic from the Pistons for a knock down shooter.
yeah during the playoffs with nuggets he almost had that fire to keep them at close.. too bad others didn't step up to help bron and AD
Pascal does shoot the 3. He just doesn't take many.
As a Laker’s fan we need to admit something, AR15 is a great 6th man, but he won’t ever be better than he is now. And we should have drafted either Jaquez or Cam Whitmore they can shoot the 3, long wings capable of defending, and Jaquez is a decent rebounder for his size.
I think we should make a move to trade D Lo and AR15 for a 2-way shooting role player and a sizable big that will play physical defense and rebound so we can move AD to the 4 and put Bron back at the 1
We had the formula in 2020 and incompetence made us blow it up and we’ve been unsuccessful ever since.
Can you do a video on the suns falling apart like the nets and what could happen next please and thank you
That's not Robert Covington... 5:30 come on now.
Bothered me as well
Robert Covington looks like Markieff Morris @5:30

Video on Klutch politics? I liked that context in the knicks and raps vid
Drafting bronny is lowkey a GENIUS move
Facts 💯💯💯💯💯💯
ur kidding right, not genius but a douchey, cringey & shameless act of nepotism
@@baroklim9511 I’m assuming he means another team picking him up Lmao, that’d be hilarious cuz you’d force Lebron to play for a premium if he ever wants to achieve the dream of playing with his son. He manipulates the league so much it would honestly be hysterical if it happened.
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂. Keep the jokes coming
What If a trash team draft bronny then
Bron is going to retire a Laker don’t have to be a genius to figure that out. He’s waiting for Bronny (who currently is not good enough to play in the NBA) and I’m sure he and the lakers have already talked about it. Bron not leaving
Do you know how many line ups coach spo from the heat go through? It's like 50 new lineups every year. No excuses.
Mikal Bridges would be good too. Not too expensive contract wise either. Might as well try to get spencer dinwiddie too if they can make it work
I’d love to see Siakam traded for the right assets that could be really cool
Are you high? Siakam is a horrible fit for the lakers. The need shooters not him 😂
You imagine LBJ on the warriors? 😂😂😂
At this point I wouldn’t even be mad, that highlight reel for the end of Lebrons career would go crazy, I’m tryna see what’s up
Nah, warriors have enough cancer already
Curry doesn’t want to play alongside Lebron. I think if he went to GS Curry would actually leave
nice analysis, but they lack in defense too. I think they might need a good center
How did that guy tweet from the future?
Bronny getting a ten day
Lebrin slurpers are at an time high even tho his career is down and sneaker sales.
Ya earned my sub wit this one. Excellent research.
I would love to hear something about like a mock draft but with the Lebron coming with bronny factor worked in
It's everyone's fault but LeFlop's?
Well, considering that most things are LeBron's fault, and that includes the 2008 finance crisis, covid-19, and the Russian invasion of Ukraine, maybe some basketball fans can let the oldest player in the entire league have some smaller expectations on him for the rest of his career. .
Yeah, pretty much going all the way back to Cleveland..but here's the facts LBJ has carried ''EVERY'' team he's been on and he's never asked for a trade or forced his way out. Whether it was Kobe in LA; when Shaq left my beloved Lakers were garbage so Kobe asked to be traded until we got Gasol..Kawhi said he was injured in SA but miraculously got healthy when he went to Toronto...Harden, KD & Kyrie forced trades so your point is non & void..Also, I can breakdown Mike Brown, Spoelstra, Ty Lue & Vogel which none have won a title w/o LBJ, but LBJ won a title w/o them and they were all rookie coaches except Vogel but Vogel couldn't beat Spoelstra bc Spoelstra had LBJ but then Vogel coaches LBJ and beats Spoelstra bc he had LBJ & Spoelstra didn't. So, call him whatever but the ''BLAME'' isn't one of them...
@@MrClebophdnoones laughing at your joke dude...
They are about to trade Darvin Ham for two 2nd round picks, and let Lebron manage the team 😂

With Lebron no one is safe.
It's hard to coach LeBron because he thinks he's the coach. If he had so much iq he wouldn't have lost 6 finals and got swept so many times.
Robert Covington 😂😂
This youtuber is a fake fan lol
Crazy delusional to expect them to deal Reaves for Brogdon or Caruso lol
When lebron was behind the 3 point line, guess who was helping him argue the point? Phil Handy not darvin ham. I was like like why is Phil over there and darvin NOT!

Exactly. “They won the offseason” was laughable then and it is now.
Shut up he's playing great
Always thought it was foolish to hype them up so much. They got lucky the west was weak in the playoffs which is why they made it so far. Nothing is changing the fact that they still heavily rely on their two stars.
C'mon, now he's old and plays no defense. He needs help!

Lakers don't have any assets to trade. I don't think they should let go of Reeves. He is too good as a Laker.
only reaves got value and his contract is team friendly…
LeCoach really needs to step up his game if he is trying to lead his team to a win.
Why does the oldest player in the league have to step up his game? Lmao stfu
a 39 year old lehusband shouldn’t have to step up for the team, AD n everyone else does. especially austin reaves n rui hachimuru

@@zznerzz yeah and the team he "built" was the #2 defense after the trade deadline and made it to the WCF so what point are you trying to make?
Even if all the Star players go to Lakers, the team still sucks due to poor rotation.
From day 1 I have doubts on ham being hired
Dejounte Murray and Brogdon would fix the Lakers issues. I'd trade D'Angelo, at least. That plugs defense, playmaker, and 3-point shooting.
I'd trade LeBron to get them, but would keep Reaves cheap contract if possible. They paid too much for AD, unfortunately.
What ? You’re smoking crack for sure
You’d trade Lebron for a non starter with zero defense and a young player not even better than Trey Young? lmao Austin Reeves is great but look at his averages then factor in the only reason AD gets the ball is because of Lebron. Neither Reeves or Dlo can consistently feed AD the balll…go back to drawing board my guy
You said a whole lot of nothing bro but you made it sound good lol.. defense? Murray is a terrible defender this year and so is brogdon. Get the stats and defensive rating. His is 119.5. What 3 pt shooting? Murray a career 34%. Thats below league average. 😂
@christopheracevedo4846 LeBron is old. He has 1 more year & he walks, so the Lakers aren't going to get a lot for him. Murray is young & has crazy potential - plus the Hawks know he might leave. 34% shooting at 3 is average. He doesn't need to be great at everything.
I also said the Lakers could trade pieces for Murray, and move LeBron if he WANTS to go - which he likely does if they're not contenders. He wants a final chance at a ring.
Better to get Murray & whoever versus nothing.

LeBron put Ty Lue as the head coach of the Cavs and led him to a championship. Ty Lue didn't survive LeBron. Ty Lue's coaching career was made by LeBron. Two of Spoelstra's three championships were given by LeBron as well. If he didn't have those, Spoelstra might not be seen as anything more than a really good coach that can help elevate a team instead of easily being one of the best coaches in the NBA currently and a future HoF coach.
you are vastly overestimating LeBrons impact on coaching my friend

As a lakers hater, yes plz fire the coach or make big trades mid season. Seems smart 😬
