You know very little about basketball… he’s been playing with limited talented spectators… Jordan had better role players that executed better than the Lebron’s supporting spectators! Periodt!
@@jonathanvictorian2107 and if you read what I said I said at 39 lebron had a better roster then jordan who the hell jordan had when he played with the wizards maybe you know nothing
Perk is wrong. Minnesota has a better team than the Lakers. The Others on MN are better than the Lakers. Even all of the MN starters are better than the Lakers starters.
I can hear it in everyone's voice on the panel. The hate is being exposed. We all know that Every ESPN conversation is being controlled by LeBron and JJ. #theGoats
They will be without him eventually. They have to plan for the future. I think as a team they would be better without him as it would free up other players to express themselves better as he hogs the attention and the ball. He also is not a favourite with lakers fans as he has never been one of there own not like magic or kobe. He has always been a mercinary look after his own interests. I dont get why they dont move him on to get better pieces for the future its madness.
The fact that Kendrick Perkins is trying to compare Minnesota to the Lakers is wild Minnesota roster is way better and they have better defense they have the size to guard the Joker and I don't feel like Darvin ham shouldn't got fired at all just one season after making the Western Conference Finals they really didn't want to hire him in the first place let's just be honest they was calling for his job in the first season
Fakers are done and out of the playoffs! Shift the narrative to the young and upcoming players on the teams STILL IN the playoffs and away from those malcontent clowns that inhabit Los Angeles! And throw those clowns in Phoenix out , too!
Man come on!!! Jordan NEVER claimed to be the “goat.” That’s why we didn’t half expect him to do anything at 39. LeBum has been claiming to be the “greatest” for too long to be so underachieving!!!
Everybody under this post is stupid. The media called Bron the Golden child and he did more than expected at this point you all are just enjoying knocking someone you watched become greater than you expected and still expecting more from him. Who will y'all hate on next Anthont Edwards or Wembya 😂😂😂
LbJ is being selfish and the Lakers’s managers are being silly because we lakers “care for our stars”. If we don’t make the right moves with the picks that we have,we’ll be wasted for the following 8 years.. We gotta move smoothly
His skills have not diminished, he’s playing well and putting up numbers… since you’re on Ant Edwards jock… CAT will be a top 75, Rudy G… is solid in the paint… good role players… you should’ve traded Reeves and Russell at the break…you need a guy that can defend, finish, and know how to win… AD and Lebron carried the team and that’s not good!
Oh wow perk Now all of sudden u turning on Bron U trippin. The coaches not all on him Blatt hamm Vogel that's it. Same time management and ownership could say no.
Those clowns always have energy to come after people who look like them. LeBron could not sign Kyrie but he can fire the coach. They said nothing about Rob Polinka who fired the coach.
Why does he HATE Lebron this much? Damn! Leave this man alone! Geez! He talks about Bron every single day! He said Westbrook should retire too! Lebron will go down as the Goat in this era no matter what yall said! His legacy will live on! Thank God Bron not listening to y'all if he was he would never even be in the league period! He will retire when he is ready!
That what I'm talking about, Perk!!! You saw the light! Shannon can never talk about Lebron without mentioning Mj and Stephen A., you said youself he doesn't have that killer mentality....yall flip flop too much for me and that podcast is trash. He's just making LeXuses for those losses.
Shannon shut up already, Can you tell us the Players MJ -prayed with at Washinton and the Players Lebron played at Lakers, Why compare what doesn't need to compare
It's Like they love to hate this man no matter what he do it's all ways more hate then love if I was LeBron I would retire and just not talk to anyone anymore
@@Wardog1215 he not in the playoffs. And he is.the goat of his generation. However, he 39... not even in the second round of the playoffs and until the championship is decided he is irrelevant for the moment. Let's talk about SGA. TATUM, ANT MAN, JOKIC, ETC... Imagine talking about D'aaron Fox, Wembyama, AI, Tracy McGrady, Lauri Markennan, Karl Malone, Chauncey Billups or any other great not playing right now.... Who cares? Let him finish his career off in peace man... focus on the new blood...
Stephen A away hating on LeBron James and others if he think the King should retire then I tired of listening to him he should be the one person ESPN get ready him like so many other people real talk
Lebron James is one of the greatest players to ever play in the NBA. Is he better than Jordan? NO. Is Lebron the GOAT? NO I love Lebron James. GOAT is Michael Jordan hands down!
@vsavage9773: Wilt Chamberlain was ahead of his time I agree. This is a factor you have to consider. Michael Jordan made the NBA and NIKE a global brand. I'm from Kenya 🇰🇪 and nobody watched NBA infant it was never aired on TV until Michael Jordan and the Bulls started killing the Eastern conference. 2 American icons that are known globally are MJ & MJ ! Michael Jordan and Michael Jackson. Go to any foreign country and I guarantee they might not know Lebron but they definitely know of MJ.....
LeBron should have spoke up for him if he wanted him to stay I agree and Jeanie buss would have co sign it because she go to LeBron about everything else......I love LeBron and everything but he and the whole lakers organization need to take some accountability as well
If this and if that! What about what actually happened. He didn't want to listen to Pat he didn't want Spolstra! Every Laker coach that has been fired is because of Bron! Who the hell they going to get that can make this team better with coaching when they don't listen. Bron doesn't play defense, he takes plays off, he doesn't help on rotations, he shoots ill advised 3s as well as ill timed ones ,he can't win games from the free throw line. He claimed to be the goat after beating GS even though Steph got 3 on him. He claimed to be chasing a ghost. News flash jackazz you're nowhere near that ghost. 💯
LeBron makes Erik poelstra, t lue, frank Vogel champions. They win nothing before and after LeBron. Why are they mad at LeBron when Rob fired the coach?
I've been a fan of Bron fan for along time but I absolutely agree with perk and Michael wilbon can't make excuses for Bron anymore it's getting tiring now same ole thing over and over year after year perk spoke the truth 💯
@@deathspitterq1072 it wasn't Bron fault of course he can't hold they hands on the court but those guys are getting paid to do a job but they still had leads where they took they foot off the gas and slowed down and press the brakes so Denver could get back into the games did you watch or you pretend to watch 🤨🤔
@@DontressSmith watched every game this season I'm trying to figure out where did LBJ mess up . Made sure we won every in season tournament game. He was critizied for lack luster defense which he turned up during the playoffs I'm confused as to what more could he have done avg 25/5/5 at least. Like I said the blame needs to be placed on the role players and Ham ass coaching. The lakers didn't get better until a week after ASG. Did you watch any games or pretend to know what you're talking about listening to others?
Lebron is done, that's it. im tired of hearing about this guy. The league evolved with other players that he couldn't keep up with. He is done move on ESPN.
Ham can't coach that's why he's getting fired I don't want to hear well he got them to the wcf last year NO he didn't Bron willed them there ham doesn't know how to plug players in where they best fit
It's time for the IQ to catch up with the skills. The panel is going too far because they're trying to find answers to what's next at Lakers organization. Embrace the changes, something New is coming to the game of basketball. Small minds cannot see it because they're too bitter with Lakers. They're afraid he would do something extravagant, and they'll have to call him the goat. It's ashame that all these sports platforms are trolling one player, the one they say is not the Goat, but they cannot let his life speak for itself. Why is everybody threatened by change. Hmm, if things change in the NBA, y'all won't have anymore arguments to defend your silly conversations.
Jordan won 6 championships in the triangle system of Phil Jackson. Kobe won 5 championships in the triangle system of Phil Jackson. Tell me the great coach LeBron had.
What I tell my kids bacareful of people who brag on themselves like Lebron saying that he is the goat, because a lion never has to tell me that he's a lion, bottom line
At this point all Bron can do is retire...if he plays he's stat padding, if they don't win it's a failure and he isn't taking responsibility....which I'm not sure how Michael Porter torching the Lakers and averaging 20+ while starters for Lakers had no points in playoff games is Bron's fault. But I guess he's suppose to make everyone better constantly so if they missing it's his fault. Ya Bron gotta retire; there's no line for him anymore with this media or social media. He can't just be great at the game...you got Kawhi hurt or losing, KD swept, Curry out the playoffs, and no one cares, but they all better than Lebron according to multiple post and debates. But somehow because Lebron teams are expected to Win Bron has to retire or everything is his fault when the TEAM doesn't win or fires the coach. What's he suppose to say, damn I missed some defensive assignments, and I didn't make every shot I took, it's my fault see y'all next year lol. Kobe called his team bums and trash and y'all loved him for it, I just don't understand.
Perk ain't saying LeBron can't play anymore he saying the longer he keeps playing its always going be expectations cause he still playing at a high level......I do agree he need to retire.....he don't have anything else to prove
Nobody expected MJ to go to the ECF at 39. Real basketball minds know Lebron won’t win again being the face of any team. MJ at 39 was playing rec ball in the NBA on a team he owned to get ticket sales up. Let’s be for real. LBJ is a great player for sure, but he’s not a killer. If he really was a killer he wouldn’t have a losing record going to 10 finals. There’s no goat debate, as much as basketball is about skills, it’s also about winning. What Perk is saying if he continues playing it will ruin whatever legacy he has a winner.
Did MJ have AD in his wizards years and did MJ have you LeShaft riders on TV claiming he would win every year??? No was MJ playing before the wizards years??? No!!!!
Talking Heads crying about a coach who didn't get the job done. The Lakers needed to use their team. This team was good enough to play with any team, but the coach played the wrong players at the wrong time. For example when the games were close vs Den, and the Lakers needed a board, yet the coach had "spacers" in the game!!! Those spacers weren't even near the boards. That's all coaching. GOAT doesn't mean you win chips in a 5-on-5 sport. Nobody in the NBA did that. SAS, if the players don't speak up, you and all the talking heads will simply repeat these crybaby narratives about a poor coach getting fired when they don't get the job done. When players don't get the job done, they get traded. They get let go. What accountability does AD & LBJ need to accept, when they balled out? The 2024 Lakers were about 5on2, 5on3, that's how you lose 20-point leads. Perk we are not talking about a 23-year-old LBJ, so how do you compare Antman? LBJ does everything for his team but now he can't do everything. Nor should he have to. How about others doing their jobs! Blocking out! Going down low to attempt a rebound! How about accountability for situational basketball? How about commanding respect because you know what you are doing? How about leading players from day one by telling them what your plan is for winning the chip? How about not babying them? The Lakers or nobody else is going to win without situational basketball. If you are saying nobody on the Lakers' bench could help, (aka do their jobs) in a key moment, then the GM needs to be fired. The fact is Coach Ham stuck with his guys AR/DLo and at times Rui, and they let him down. Nobody Supermaned a team to the chip, not LBJ, MJ, Magic, Cap, Bird, Wilt, Shaq, Kobe, DJ, Russell, etc...somebody else grabbed a board, blocked out, hit a key three, and not just got cardio (shout-out Unk). Get this man a real coach who values the game and not overvalues crybaby players. Or , you are right Perk, Bron should retire, what is the point, if he is not gon be coached? If the GM not going to assemble a team? If the coach not going to coach? Bron walk away or just play like all the other 38+ year-olds played. Then the THs can say washed king again. LOL
Mad respect for Perk telling the truth. Shannon is a loss cause, nothing he sad can force anybody to believe nothing just coming out his dam mouth. Shannon haven't followed Lebron James, since he came to the Lakers, because if he did, he would seen with his eyes, the way Lebron James treated his teammates and coaches, since he became a Lakers. Stop talking up for this want to be Goat bro.
If the lakers gon do it the lebron way do it the lebron way. If u want him to take 100% of the blame. He needs 100% control. Hey if the narrative still gon be him Lakers gotta let it happen. They’ve never gave him the things he asked for but 1 and he won. No lakers fan is mad about the firing of darvin. We watching we ok with that. Wish him well.. Lebron balling he 40 WTF yall want. Ham always got out coached.
This freakin Shannon, expecting MJ to win a chip In Washington but forgot completely that LeBrick is playing with another top 75, wth is this but kisser saying here?
Lebron is gonna make alot of people rich in the future when they start writing these books about playing with the fake goat. Malik Monk called lebron out once by saying we can't win when everybody not getting back on defense or playing defense. How lebron look at video and not see him not giving a 100 percent on defense. If he would stop trying to dunk and pass the ball to players that needs to involved in the game for them to win he might be better. Lebron has gotten rid of so many players and coaches because he put the blame on others not himself and that the problem. He is playing only to break records he not trying to win no championship if he was he would play better defense. He not even in the top 10 now.
Let's stop the nonsense LeBron James have been the face of the NBA for the last couple of years but he is 39 and lukas Edward wemby are much younger 😊😊😊😊😊😊😊
Perkins is right the longer he's plays the worse it gonna get. LeBron will be 40 years old this December. LeBron never comes out and says it's my fault I gotta be better
But if LeBron James wins Shay Shay Duffy you will be saying that look what the 39-year-old did but when he lose, you say oh he’s 39 years old what do you expect you are a bum Shannon
You know I rarely agree with Perk. But Perk is right about LeBron James retiring he should. And believe me noone is going to miss LeBron James whenever he retires period. You heard Shannon Sharpe say he'll be back. That's how you know that Shannon Sharpe could get Phil Handy back that's how close LeBron is with Shannon Sharpe.
