For a while there, it looked like Los Angeles fans may get a LeBron James / Kyrie Irving reunion after the star wasn’t getting what he wanted out of his contract with the Brooklyn Nets. But that all went away last night after Kyrie passed on the Lakers to re-sign for $36.5M with the Nets. Nick Wright and Ric Bucher decide what this means for LeBron’s Lakers who seem to be stuck with the same lineup that kept them out of the playoffs last season.

I'm not disappointed….GLAD… I HATE Kyrie, NOT trustworthy….besides, he didn't want to be under LeBron again….
let's see how kyrie acts next season since he wasn't offered an extension. I predict more drama on the horizon for Brooklyn
1 thing I give GSW. They find great talent cheap, groom them and create a winning culture. They perfected this formula. Laker's front-office PLS take note. They need Jerry West or similar type of exec.

I mean it’s a win win for John Wall. If the clippers look like a championship contender, he’ll get the least amount og pressure put on him compared to going to LA where he’s gonna get skewered by the fanbase whose already sick of AD and Russ wasting their time.
To the admin of this channel – You have to post each segment as soon as it's done or you're missing out on ads as it's being pirated and posted seconds after each segment
Good I don’t want him anywhere near my lakers
Please. Never wanted that to happen. Kyrie has always been a bad teammate and more trouble than he is worth.
Whew! We dodged a bullet… "street clothes davis", "no show kyrie", and "walking turn over russ" and the "old man!? Not a recipe for success!!!
As a loyal lakers fan…We dgaf if Wall came to the Lakers or not lol
The terrible dad jokes are out of control
The Nets should trade KD, Griffin & Aldridge for Herro, Adebeyo, Robinson & Strus plus 3 first round picks and then trade Kyrie Irving for D'Angelo Russell then finally trade Harris, Claxton & Curry for Pascal Siakim and run a team of
1. D'Angelo Russell
2. Tyler Herro
3. Ben Simmons
4. Pascal Siakim
5. Bam Adebeyo
6. Patty Mills
7. Max Strus
8. Duncan Robinson
9. Kessler Edwards
10. Andre Drummond
They become fun again with a ridiculous front court defensively, but this is pie in the sky thinking
That's it. That's the list. He He He. Poor LeBron. He needs to wake up and realize the Lakers are one of the worst trash Organizations in the NBA now. Demand a trade, LeBron. Oh, and maybe he can win the scoring title this coming season having the greatest season ever for a 38 year old.
F the Lakers. F Lebum
Lol at "rambi"…😆 🤣 😂
Beal back to the Wiz, John Wall to the Clips and Kyrie say no thanks.. Lakers are a dead franchise
Kyrie humbled? That's a fantasy he'll never humble himself bc Kyrie is all about himself. no matter what he says there will be distractions. look at what he put his bro through he left KD hanging all season. came back when the vaccine mandate was lifted. when everyone on the nets like it or not got vaccinated bc everyone was all in.
Lakers Fan- Can’t win with a ball dominant, inefficient, high turnover point guard. When Russ dribbles the ball 100 mph towards the opponent’s basket, don’t even follow him. Just get into your defense set because the ball is about to come your way. Get yourself a new point guard.
Lakers need stability honestly……. keep your pieces and improve their game find identity….. ppl act like these players don't work on their game a players can change their mindset and improve in an off season
Which Lakers fan they talking about?? Cuz I never wanted an unreliable kyrie and a john wall who hasn't played in 3 years…. These media people need content and hating Lakers gets clicks I guess….
He confused Lakers fans with Lebron fans. Not one Laker fan wanted Kyrie dingbat
hot take, john wall ends up having a pretty good year and in 6 month the topic is laughing at the lakers for not giving up a future 1st
After next season and when Kyrie contract expires, who in their right mind would make an offer to this idiot
They love to hate us
I'm surprised nick Wrong lasted a whole segment without buffing Collins cowherds Nutts.
Last time Wall played I was in college 😂
Lakers fans aren’t disappointed. We just want a healthy and hungry AD.
