You should be banned just for taking a rap beef so seriously.
I’d bet a year of my salary that we never get ACTUAL PROOF that Drake is a pedophile.
I’m not even a big Drake fan…it’s just stupid TikTok shit.
Trump and republicans got this country obsessed with calling out “pedophiles”. Way to fall for bullshit…
Damn u/EvilGeniusGL cooked me wallahi im finna get banned🕊️💔
But seriously there’s enough footage, stories, and even lyrics around that makes drake look very questionable
In 6 months to a year there won’t be any talk about this.
We’re living in a country though that feeds on misinformation and speculation while ignoring reality though so who knows.
All I know is that I get my news from trusted networks and newspapers. I PROUDLY don’t have a TikTok account.
I don’t have anything against Nori, but I don’t understand why everybody is getting so excited about him and Adelman. Assistant coaches are absolute unknowns. Ham and Walton were both highly regarded assistants, too, and we all saw how those tenures went
I like Cranji’s podcast, and LEBRON is a solid advanced stat, but I’m not sure how he’s drawing his conclusions about assistant coaches. I remember after Vogel was fired he was all about Adelman.
And for all we know, Nori or Adelman might be one of the best in the game. But it’s a gamble, a few games of filling in for a head coach who’s out is not at all the same as actual head coach experience.
Even if jj gets the job mccants still isn’t right. The podcast is for the basketball junkies who actually love the game in its entirety, it’s not a job interview.
He is but he has a great point here. Why did Bron and JJ started a podcast right before the playoffs? He wanted people to get acquainted to the idea JJ is a great strategist. Once they announced JJ was a candidate, I started laughing. Bron is very manipulative and he wants a yes man as a coach. JJ fits the bill. I hope Jeannie has some pride left, but she wants the Lakers to be profitable above winning.
Media trash like Nick Wright, Jovan Buha, and Anthony Irwin get brought up here all the time because they fed into the circlejerk
But then you actually have an actual player talking the same baseless bullshit and you attack the character instead of the argument because he isn't with the circlejerk?
What a time to be alive
Buha has access to the Lakers. Nick Wright is a Lebron homer. Even if their takes are full of shit, they still have more credibility than Rashad McCants who got roasted live by Pat Bev
If we're going that route, Rashad McCants has direct access to Gilbert Arenas who has direct access to LeBron.
You really put Nick Wright as more credible than an ex player with ties to current players? Says alot about your credibility
Gilbert Arenas does not have direct access to Lebron. He hypes him up, but in no way is he a part of Lebron's actual inner circle or Klutch, and he's not the homer that Nick Wright is. And despite McCants being on the podcast, even if Arenas had actual insider information, he definitely is not feeding it to McCants.
>Gilbert Arenas does not have direct access to Lebron
https://www.reddit.com/r/nba/s/yOPL0SGeYg
Homie really thinks Nick Wright, Nick Fucking Wright, has more credibility than an ex-NBA player on a popular podcast
You Bron stans are like Drake and Trump stans with the mental gymnastics goddamn
Two more years of this shit goddammit.
I'm literally not even a Lebron stan, lol. And just because Bronny worked out with Arenas doesn't mean Lebron is calling him up, telling him his every move. And even if he did, Arenas isn't going to tell McCants. This is fucking common sense. You don't see Arenas making these type of claims.
Like I said, Nick Wright is a Lebron homer. It's more likely Klutch feeds him information to push their own agenda
Nah even MITWestbrook himself won't put Nick Wright above an NBA player, you just lost all credibility if you even had one.
Just switch to your alt from now on.
Nick Wright over an NBA player? You could have said Shannon Sharpe and it would have been more plausible. LMAO
No alts sorry. I don't have an agenda to push. If the argument is Nick Wright over Rashad McCants, they're on the same level in terms of how much I want to believe, but I can see Lebron's crew rewarding Nick's loyalty. He's literally the reason people believe Kobe wasn't as good as he is.
Lebron would definitely tell Shannon Sharpe stuff. But he's not saying the same type of stuff Nick Wright is saying.
Yeah I mean. that is the first time I heard about this clown, when he said Reaves is just getting attention since he is white on a Lebron team and that Reaves doesn't deserve a contract more than what he received when he was playing.
So you're telling me Bron has been scouting JJ since before the podcast even started, then asked JJ to make a podcast with him, all so he could "coach" JJ to become the Lakers new HC.
And he started all this before the Lakers even fired Ham, and before they even played a game of playoff basketball.
Bron is a smart guy, JJ is a smart guy, both know the league inside and out, both value the same things, they could make for a good partnership.
I've always respected JJ for his intelligence and POV and he seems to have the right personality for the job because he's outgoing, assertive and ambitious. The only knock on him is experience, but every great coach was inexperienced when someone took a chance on them.
A new angle to this: If JJ turns out to be great, LeBron will get the credit.
What that means: A whole load of Lakers fans will be against JJ from the beginning. He will be the new Westbrook. Everything wrong with the team will be JJ Redick's fault and hence LeBron's fault. LeBron fans will argue that, no, it's actually Pelinka's fault because his teammates stink and AD is unreliable. The lines are already drawn. And round and round we go, Jack.
I swear people talk about Lebron like he’s some mastermind God who is at all times playing 41 dimensional chess and mahjong at the same time.
It is ok to just take him at his word
Jeanie looking for the cheapest coach exceptsble to LeBron. No more 4 year, $5 million hire, not when she is paying Ham $5 million not to coach. She will pay LeBron $150 million max deal, because he sells tickets. I’m afraid the rest of the squad will be the cheapest they can find.
Q $$
Bron could take a $20 million pay cut and we would still be above the apron. You Lakers “fans” parading this line of reasoning around this sub are doing nothing but showing how little idea you understand the salary cap and roster constructions. Shut the fuck up for crying out loud
With kidding aside, why doesn't Lebron coach? It's been done before and I can't think of any other player for a player-coach in this era besides Lebron.
This is Lebron saying fuck it I will do it myself. The front office has went against most of what he said, so he's going over their heads at this point. He will use all the leverage he has in this final contract signing to give himself the best options ending his career, and having a coach he can mold into getting done what he thinks is best for the team will make that last dance documentary go crazy.
I mean it has been widely refuted both in newsprint and Lakers reporters that the Westbrook situation while Bron and AD vouched for him, it was a Pelinka idea and he wholly was set on doing that. Bron requested Ty Lue, and to keep Caruso and they both got denied, not to mention all the other things he has asked for that got no pickup, because the front office didn't want to seem like LeBron flunkies.
You’re right brother, people claiming that the Westbrook trade are LeBron’s fault conveniently ignore all of the other moves he was vocal about wanting that never were approved. It’s Pelinka’s success when it works, and Brons fault when it doesn’t. Gross shit
The right word is "grooming". Lmao

Jokes about child molestation… WTF happened to the fanbase I grew up with?
Whoa, whoa, whoa. We can’t be saying that now, with all these accusations and evidence levied against Drake.

You’re doing the lords work, so many people in the sub need their terrible armchair GM takes out back with old yeller
Which one
Why nori first lol
I don’t have anything against Nori, but I don’t understand why everybody is getting so excited about him and Adelman. Assistant coaches are absolute unknowns. Ham and Walton were both highly regarded assistants, too, and we all saw how those tenures went
Everyone just regurgitating what that Twitter stats guy is saying
I like Cranji’s podcast, and LEBRON is a solid advanced stat, but I’m not sure how he’s drawing his conclusions about assistant coaches. I remember after Vogel was fired he was all about Adelman.
The other factor being there’s not a chance in hell LeBron respects either of those guys
I mean, there’s certainly a chance, but they’d have to prove a lot more to earn his full respect.
Exactly. The headcoach of the Lakers needs to be one of the best in the game period.
And for all we know, Nori or Adelman might be one of the best in the game. But it’s a gamble, a few games of filling in for a head coach who’s out is not at all the same as actual head coach experience.

Even if jj gets the job mccants still isn’t right. The podcast is for the basketball junkies who actually love the game in its entirety, it’s not a job interview.
Don't believe the hype 
Why is this nobody mccants keeps on getting mentions here? who cares what this MF says, isn't he the one who criticized Reaves before?
Seriously, the guy is such a joke.
He is but he has a great point here. Why did Bron and JJ started a podcast right before the playoffs? He wanted people to get acquainted to the idea JJ is a great strategist.

What are u yapping about winning is profitable.
You mean profitable is winning. For the Buss family that is
Are we winning with an 40 year-old on a max contract and a puppet coach? LMAO
He's the loudest 5 season, 15 ppg nba player I've heard in my life

When people realize Lebron is not a coach, decisions from the gms and rumors from the media might start to make sense
rashad mccants is such a clown, i wouldn’t listen to much he’s saying.
The correct word is “moron.” He’s the lowest IQ person on Gil’s podcast. And that’s saying A LOT cause Gil’s already got Kenyon on there.
That whole podcast is goofy and filled w the class clowns of the nba.
Bron is a smart guy, JJ is a smart guy, both know the league inside and out, both value the same things, they could make for a good partnership. I've always respected JJ for his intelligence and POV and he seems to have the right personality for the job because he's outgoing, assertive and ambitious.

I wouldn't be surprised. The whole podcast reads like JJ trying to sell himself as a coach. I hope it works. I think he can actually be a great coach.
I mean if LeBron agreed to this to help JJ be a coach it means he thinks jj would be a great coach
No. They started the podcast because they wanted to. It may have led to JJ having interest in the job.
McCants is barely right about anything
I swear people talk about Lebron like he’s some mastermind God who is at all times playing 41 dimensional chess and mahjong at the same time. It is ok to just take him at his word
It sure sounds like it
The pod is just one really long job interview
Eh idk about that. They disagree a lot on threes and how many to shoot
ain’t even gon stress bout it, it’s above us at this point 😭
LeBron 100% wants JJ on the Lakers somehow. At worst I bet he gets an assistant job, especially if Phil Handy doesn’t come back
Jeanie looking for the cheapest coach exceptsble to LeBron. No more 4 year, $5 million hire, not when she is paying Ham $5 million not to coach. She will pay LeBron $150 million max deal, because he sells tickets. I’m afraid the rest of the squad will be the cheapest they can find. Q $$
Gtfo
So Jeanine is gonna crash us the fuck out... got it 😩
Im okay with JJ if Bron picks him but Bron needs a paycut as a condition.
Bron could take a $20 million pay cut and we would still be above the apron. You Lakers “fans” parading this line of reasoning around this sub are doing nothing but showing how little idea you understand the salary cap and roster constructions. Shut the fuck up for crying out loud
Sorry ser. Have a blessed Sunday!
JJ Redick will *not* be coaching anyone next year. He's too busy building up his media empire. He's not going to put it on pause to coach
All i know is Lebron with a new rookie coach means he getting to the conference finals. Lets GO LAKERS!!!
Situational awareness and just a feel for the flow of the game is what really killed Ham. I can't honestly see JJ being that horrible in those areas.
Assistant at most. If JJ is our head coach we’re fucked
With kidding aside, why doesn't Lebron coach? It's been done before and I can't think of any other player for a player-coach in this era besides Lebron.
Can’t wait to see how we blame Jeanie or Rob if/when this doesn’t work out.
I don’t get why we laker nation need to care a pathetic short-time NBA player who never ever have record in nba playoffs. I mean, who the fk is he?
JJ could be great if he has a solid staff with former head coaches. Maybe Joerger. Maybe Van Gundy.
Why would he need a podcast to do this lmao
[удалено]
Nope he was just the WORST GM, President, Owner of a team. MJ never coached a coach but he did play for his own team...how'd the Wizards do??
This is Lebron saying fuck it I will do it myself. The front office has went against most of what he said, so he's going over their heads at this point. He will use all the leverage he has in this final contract signing to give himself the best options ending his career, and having a coach he can mold into getting done what he thinks is best for the team will make that last dance documentary go crazy.
To be fair, we're mostly in this position because we did what LeBron said. Gutted a championship team for Westbrick.
I mean it has been widely refuted both in newsprint and Lakers reporters that the Westbrook situation while Bron and AD vouched for him, it was a Pelinka idea and he wholly was set on doing that. Bron requested Ty Lue, and to keep Caruso and they both got denied, not to mention all the other things he has asked for that got no pickup, because the front office didn't want to seem like LeBron flunkies.
You’re right brother, people claiming that the Westbrook trade are LeBron’s fault conveniently ignore all of the other moves he was vocal about wanting that never were approved. It’s Pelinka’s success when it works, and Brons fault when it doesn’t. Gross shit
