@PolandSOulx It ain't LeBron.. or even AD, I'm worried about... bt the rest.... can they step up when it counts?... Or fall short like they've done all year to GREAT teams
2:57 "You allow yourself to get away from the game plan when you make it too personal. We have a gameplan, you go out there and execute it, and we live it with the results." That's actually a great outlook. Not just in game of basketball but in life in general. Specifically, in our job/career. When you take your job too seriously to the point it also affects your personality as a whole, it will drain your life. That's a very wise outlook, Bron.
His ankle injury. Dlo is shooting lights out this year. We only need like 4 three pointers a night from him.. AD is healthy and playing consistently. Reeves will somehow show up?
I’m the biggest Lebron Fan and I always said this till he got swept by Nuggets last year. Granted Lebron isn’t at the peak of his prime, this Denver team is just something else. You have to play perfect ball or put up historic numbers to beat this team in the post season. I give them a slight edge over the KD+ Warriors squad and that’s crazy to even think about considering that teams personnel
If the lakers can cover the "other guys", such as MPJ and Murray, and offset their contributions with their guys, I think it will be a great series to watch. We know Jokic can score at will and do MVP-caliber plays, we know AD can do AD things and LBJ to do what he always does. But if both one's bench is not contributing, it will result to a loss in this series. But I think that the Nuggets will have a less of a hard time making their bench contribute because of the chemistry that they have. At a personnel standpoint, both teams did an overhaul with their rosters, it's just a matter of who knows their roles more. For the Lakers, the x-factor will be DLo and for the Nuggets I think it will be MPJ because he shoots the lights out against the Lakers this season.
I’d start Bron on MPJ early, close enough in size to be a somewhat wash, moves his feet better than Rui(which is absolutely pathetic btw). He’ll make him work on defense as well. Start Reaves on Murray, sprinkle in Gabe for some physicality. I think D’Lo can do a good job on Pope because he’s not the break you down 1v1 type of offensive player that D’Lo struggles with. He’s coming off screens and cutting and slashing. To me, guarding that is more about IQ than anything else and I know people like to pretend D’Lo never puts good defensive reps on tape but I remember game 1 for him back with the lakers last year against the warriors. He was excellent imo guarding Klay. I think he could do a good job and worse case scenario, if they want to test KCP isos, please be my guest. We have more size, scoring, shooting and just veteran IQ in the rotation than we did last year. We had to rely on guys like Troy brown, Wenyen Gabriel and Lonnie Walker as the backline of our rotation. We have a shot.
I hate the Lakers but mad respect for not ducking the Nuggets. If the Lakers beat Nuggets oh my I will not hear the end of it media wise. Please beat Nuggets sincerely a Suns fan. 😂😂😂
@@AlexMoonrize no what im saying is its more important for lebron as you said lebron is looking forward to the olympics more than denver rematch. Your saying an olympic medal is less important than an nba championship?
i think Lebron says his not looking for a revenge but the his eyes tells you its not because that match up is one that make stains in his career. his not gonna let it slide you can tell he still pissed but have respect to jokic.
AD and Bron need to decide who is going to carry us down the stretch. Lebron has done his time, I want AD to make this team his and as well all the games.
Yes I believe the result is different this time, everybody needs to play more aggressive, depend 3 play the right way,score help each other.lets go lakers🥰🥰💪💪
AD gotta use his speed and skill set to dominate joker ! Also as he mentioned.. " stay present " d lo, AR, Rui, Vincent and Dinwiddie DONT DISAPPEAR! Ham has to make adjustments on the fly... get ya hands out ya pockets
I have 2 predictions. Barring any injuries. As a Lakers fan my prediction is Lakers win in 6. Analyst me would say Nuggets win in 7. And in both scenarios I have Lakers getting a split in the first 2 games. Also likely: Nuggets in 5 Highly unlikely but would be a big laugh: Lakers win in 5.
Hate to say it, as even keeled and zen-like as bron sounds here answering these questions, world is gonna do to USA in the Olympics what Denver does to LA in first round. Changing of the guards. International players are just too dominant currently. Nothing to be ashamed about. I still hope for a tight series just for the intrigue and excitement of the sport.
The 5 starters of the Lakers are not a problem, I'm sure they will dominate, for me the Bench or Role players will step up there because the 5 starters can't play the whole game
JOVAN, ASK THEM THE IMPORTANCE THAT THIS SERIES AGAINST DENVER MEANS. BECAUSE IT HAS CHAMPIONSHIP IMPLICATIONS FOR THE LAKERS, THE PATH TO THE FINALS IS EASIER IF THEY WIN. DO YOU THINK THE LAKERS ARE TAKING A CHAMPIONSHIP APPROACH TO THIS SERIES?
Physicality is the key to win against the Nuggets. Jaxson Hayes needs to man up on Jokic, that is if Ham is even smart enough to figure this out and Davis decides to be soft again. Lakers haven't improved even the slightest bit from last year. Only their change of mentality can pull this off.
It’s amazing seeing Bron’s body language answering these questions vs his podcast. He’s a totally different person which shows you these questions are garbage
The Goat will look like a LeBron, Steph, Jokic mix. Idk when he will be born but yeah. Jordan was great but too short and didnt pass. LeBron too short. Jokic too slow and unathletic, Luka same thing and can't shoot that well from 3. The goat will be able to shoot like klay, pass like lebron, score like wilt or Jordan, and be tall af.
Lebron might wanna turn back time. That game 6 vs celtics version. But nah I dont think so. Rui, austin, and dlo. If those 3 will be consistent then they can beat denver. And if ever lakers lose, atleast give me hell. Dont make it a sweep.
Lakers needs a solid game plan to defeat Denver. Is Denver invincible?. No. They can be defeated. That's the main point. I got Lakers in 7 games. It's gonna be exciting to watch both bring it!.
