Chris Broussard: LeBron deserves half of the blame for the Lakers' struggles | NBA | UNDISPUTED 

Does LeBron deserve half of the blame for the Lakers’ struggles?

James harden playing defense better than LeBron and that’s says a lot

If he takes 100% of the glory when his teams win, shouldn’t he also take 100% blame when his team loses?

I should play for the Lakers my no look passes are 🔥

These guys could work lebron into a conversation about golf.

I love lebron man. But come on, just watching him on defense bothers me, it feels like 4v5, he always leaves his man, then if they score , they always tend to look around to blame. It’s hard being a lebron fan

Have to agree with Skip on this one. If LeBron was to take the blame instead of deflecting, it would say alot to me about his CHARACTER as a leader.

On my mama Lebron be on that bs.

5:46 "Swallow it , Eat it , and Like it" .... Umm , what?? 🤯🤯🤯 I would use a rather non-explicit way to refer to someone's statement .. Idk

No lebron deserves all the blame

Lakers 2012-2013 Kobe carries his team to the playoffs at 34 yrs of age. 38yr Steve Nash missed 32gms 32yrs Pau Gasol missed 33gms Dwight recovering from back surgery playing like half himself 33yrs Artest slowed down The Lakers had two head coaches that season. Mike Brown, than Mike Dantoni. Two COMPLETELY different coaching styles. No training camp to adjust. Kobe carried that team to 45 wins. Tell me again why LeBron who's the supposed G.O.A.T can't. Did i mention Kobe played defense and LeBron for some reason doesn't have to. Anyone remember the quote Jordan gave on Kobe that season? He said Kobe at 34 chasing around point guards and young players is ridiculous, but he understood because he himself was cursed with the same demons. He wanted to be the best. I'm paraphrasing but that's the gist of what he was saying. Why is it with LeBron there is always some built-in excuse in one form or fashion? Why does a all-time great and to many there 🐐 get so many passes? If he can't get this team to the playoffs this year, no one should in their right mind put him ahead of Kobe. A severe groin injury it's supposed to take a little over 6 weeks to heal, and it has been around 8 weeks for LeBron. Kobe won championships with broken fingers! Ingram is averaging 18pts 5rebs 3ast Kuz is averaging 19pts 5.6rebs 2.5 ast How does Bron have no help? I find it funny that LeBron was suppose to teach the kids how to win this season, but all the so-called goat has done is pad his stats, neglect defense, try to trade key players that helped him to a 4th seed pre injuries, pout on the court, point fingers at the young guys to the media, tell them to stay off social media while he lives on it, and show the young guns on how distract himself with off court projects. Wow what a great leader right there. True goat. Brotha please....

It's literally all his fault. Forget all the drama and stuff. Those kids look up to him. Lead by example. If they see the effort they would fall in line

LeBron on defense is always standing in the middle of the paint trying to draw charges and leaves his man wide open on the perimeter

Lakers wasted FIVE YEARS stockpiling young talent only to give them away like free candy 🍬 just to cater to this old and decrepit king. And they're all turning it alright somewhere else.

Who would have guessed...another discussion about LeLoser James

LeBron isnt bigger than LA. That's the missing point. He and everybody who supports him is learning that the hard way.

Celtics, Cavs, Lakers, and Pelicans are 4 teams Lebron has made worse, all within 1 year. That's definitely GOATish, it's never been done before.

Funny enough, Chris says something about LeBron and his attempts to get rid of his current teammates, tells LeBron not to do that, but tells the teammates to get over it... LeBron is 95% at fault. He shouldn't have told AD to demand the trade so soon.

Huge le Ron fan but the way he blames his teammates for his own mistakes is just not right

I agree with Skip. The only player who hasn't played well since the deadline is Lebron

Lakers added the best player in the world. Won't make the Playoffs. Clippers traded their best player to Philly. Will make it. 🤣 That's pathetic, LeBron!

The reason he gets so many rebounds is cuz he stands around the paint instead of getting his man

This is the first time I've ever actually agreed with 100% of what Skip had to say lolz...usually he's wrong on everything.

Lakers were 2 games ahead of 10th seed when they were the 4th seed....C'mon Chris Broussard...

I love lebron but l will say this since 2016 sometimes in some games he shows no effort at all and I hate it. Idc what anyone says u can’t be the greatest of all time showing a lack of effort on some nights to many. It’s disrespectful to all the other greats.💯💯

Y’all so happy Lebron struggling rn but swear you not haters. Stop judging this man whole career on a game to game basis. I admit he’s playing bad rn but y’all too excited 😂

Alot of this segment is an example of what makes it worse lol doing bad its not him, doing well its him alone

I am sure that the young core of Lakers dislike being called "kids" more than the thought of being traded!

LeBron stopped playing defense as a Cav too 😂😂

Chris Broussard is so equal and fair I know he’s the reasonable parent at home 😂

Im a huge lebron fan but i actually agree with skip... it feels like lebron is over this season already

The league is waiting for LBJ to leave

*all the blame

Broussard is always the voice of reason. Skip & Shannon are tooooo far in ONE direction on things.

1:18 Skip just represented half the comment section of espn this season

Don't worry BronSexuals, Adam Silver will find a way to get Lakers into the playoffs.

3:15 "spitting" truth.

LeBron for DPOY! 🤣

This episode's probably your best. Call it when you see it!

Chris and Skip talked for so long Shannon haven’t gotten the chance to say his take on this one lmao

3:15 say it, don't spray it

Chris ie 100% correct this time. The front office should have had a press confrence to get rid of the rumors.

LeBron doesn't understand that basketball chemistry and loyalty are the two most important things

Everything Skip said was 💯! Thought I’d never say that.

Skip was spitting st8 facts !!!!

75 percent lebron 25 percent laker management For lebron cause he couldn't keep his team together and cause drama when he could of defused it Management cause they brought a team together just to keep cap space for 2019 summer the they put a team that wasnt going to succeed

They need to discuss history on this show.

It's so rare i agree with all Skip just said

Lebron is the 6th best player in the league right now 1.Giannis 2.Paul George 3.Steph Curry 4.Kevin Durant 5.james Harden 6.Lebron James/ Kawhi leonard Lebron plays no defense at all tho so that makes LA lose games. Its sad to see him walking on defense just to save enough energy to stat pad on offense. If you watch the entire game its so obvious. Not to mention all his turnovers.

Don't know why everyone surprised about his defense ask Cavs fans his defense was actually worse than this last year in the regular season. I remember cavs getting destroyed by okc, rockets, Timberwolves and etc cause lebron would walk all the time and just stand around

Now by percentages? Damn 😂

LeBron came to LA to play with Zo. I know he miss having him out there. I think it's making him realize he will have to play off the ball more. Zo also has to prove he can lead the team the whole game consistently #BBB #LakersNation

75% of the blame!!

Front office: 50% they constructed the team against what had worked for LeBron in previous years, and as Chris said, they didn’t get ahead of the AD trade rumors. Them plus Luke have done a poor job (in comparison to other teams) of developing their young stars. Luke: 25% Poor rotations, not getting his team to play good defense. 6-12 while Bron was out. Young guys: 15% When Bron was injured, they went 6-12 and lost to the Cavs and Knicks. Trade rumors bothered them in their cores. And while I agree that the prospect of moving, ESPECIALLY FROM LA, can make anyone feel a way, y’all do make millions of dollars to hoop. It’s generational wealth. Ball out, win games, prove your worth to a team that will appreciate you. Bron: 10% You gotta play defense. You have to lead your guys.

I am waiting for LeShannon defensive response to this.. but sadly they cut it out???

Yet many say Chris is bias towards lebron...chris always been fair with his criticism towards lebron...

For this one only, Skip is spot on.

Kevin Durant: LeBron is toxic Media: HoW Is LeBrOn ToXiC!?!?!?!

Damn!!.. that spit just flew out Chris mouth at 3:17 minutes in the interview

Bro, these comments nowadays have no objectivity at all, just pure hate.

Because Lebron has management by the balls. Lebron comes with so much drama.

I like Chris. He knows what he’s talking about and he never chooses sides

Keep that same energy next year.

I don't mind Skip's take on Lebron this time

Michael Jordan would be DeMar DeRozan in this era? 🤣 Yeah, just like Kobe would be Michael Redd if he played in a smaller market! All great players adapt to the times.

First time in history I agree with Skip

Skip speaking facts

Bruh! Stop sayin we wouldn't be the 4th seed without him. Like if we didn't get him we wouldn't have got somebody else instead. We woulda had a DIFFERENT SUPERSTAR had we not got him probably pg it's very possible we coulda ended up 4th seed without him

Man I can't believe I agree with Skip

LeBron this year really reminds me of Kobe in the final years of his prime. No other stars want to play with him because of everything it brings, pressure, judgment and expectations. He’s failing to unite this group and looks like he’s going through the motions, not playing any type of defense. He’s my favorite player ever but man it’s hard to watch.

Yup He Does🗣️🗣️

Was there drama in Miami?

Chris is right

AD trade drama - Front office and LeBron 50/50 Dysfunctional locker room - LeBron 100% Injuries - no ones fault Lack of leadership and defensive intensity - LeBron 75% Walton 25% Off-season trades bringing pieces that don't work to their play style - LeBron and Front office 50/50 Feeding into the media circus - LeBron 1 million percent Majority of the blame still goes to LeBron and the front office.

Agree with CHRIS 100%

Lebron was standing around cause he’s not trying to get injured again. It’s not worth it. They lost to Memphis cause lebron struggled to be efficient until the 4th quarter and the bench players have been under performing

This is the first time I have ever 100% agreed with skip Bayless in my life

Smart man always a smart man..Broussard

Lmao same that hate same that love when you win in all aspects of life

Bron *has 24 point trip dub* Y’all: “Who tf is u bron”

He played in East prior to this year. He departed East just before the Conf got very strong. So it is not his fault that the Lakers is not good. He simply is not as great as he got credited for.

Skip disagree wit his self

The Lakers had the same record last year at this point in the season. They would’ve played better without him than they’re paying in his system, look last season Lonzo was their best player and floor leader he missed 20 games but the almost exclusively rookie and sophomore roster still got 35 wins in a West that was stronger than it is now. I’m not sold on what Chris Broussard is saying beloved.’

I'm tired of hearing of LeQueen James.

I disagree..the team has to play better because magic and walton said they wasn't going to abuse his talent by counting on him to win games...the team is the problem..

So we’re just going to pretend like the media wasn’t talking about the Lakers every other day last year?

Real reason LeBron is hurting the Lakers. *ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-BcOrz8jKzsQ.html* KD knew this about LeBron the whole time. *ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-JXXiLkDtR7E.html*

Only Half Of The Blame.. “insert Waka Flocka Flame Meme ‘Okay’ “

Skip "I can't tell you how much I disagree with everything you said" Bayless

LeBlame back at it!!!

Nothing like Kobe...

ppl gotta stop complaining about lbj trading them its not his team, its the owners team he might have a say or recommendation but its not his team.... its the magic mans team

"Not worth Trading" hahahahahaha

"Everyone but Golden State are trying to get better" Lol this statement is SO wrong... GS is probably searching right now for their 6th all-star, I wouldn't be surprised if Anthony Davis, Kyrie, Kawhi, Kemba, Nikola, or Tobias Harris moves to the Bay in the off-season. Golden state don't stop, and are never happy with what they have. 73 win season? Let's get the greatest scorer of this era. Back to back champions, let's grab a top 3 Big to round out our 3 future Hall of Famers. The Key to continued success is to never be satisfied with what you have, and Golden State gets that.

Trade LeBron for AD

The king of the NBA kD 👑

Two reasons he deserves all the blame: 1. Bumass let his team allow the Anthony Davis news to leak because he was impatient 2. If they were winning, he would get all the credit

i certainly agree, lebron brought only 50% on his way to LA. the other half was left with the cavs.....

Chris Broussard [ HIS TEAM IS NOT ENOUGH] he has to recruit.
