Chris Broussard weighs in on LeBron, Lakers struggles with AD sidelined | NBA | UNDISPUTED
The Los Angeles Lakers have hit a few roadblocks since Anthony Davis went down with a calf injury on February 14th. In a loss to the Heat in a Finals rematch this weekend, LeBron scored 19 points on 7-for-21 shooting, including just 1-for-8 from 3-point range, accounting for his worst shooting percentage of the season. Ric Bucher joins Chris Broussard and Lavar Arrington to discuss LeBron and Lakers recent struggles.

You jmak?? LeBron want his teammates to step up for himself not for Lakers. For his legacy! For being the GOAT! For catching leading scorer. Which is not fair for his teammates! With freaky weak game ending shot and free throws!

This excuse about ad being not on the floor did we not see LeBron without ad not even make the playoffs so how is this news. So all the MVP talk has to stop. look I'm not taking anything away from LeBron and what he's doing this late in his career but it's not a lifetime achievement of all it's called MVP. He's not leading the league in any category and he's about to take the lead in the most turnovers yet he's supposed to be the MVP.

Not mad, just thinks this proves how little he is deserving of mvp. I’ve thought he isn’t even the best player on hi team and this proves it. Joel Embid has now had it locked in for mvp.

If Lakers win, media: "It's because LeBron is the MVP" (even, if his stats are mediocre). If Lakers lose, media: "It's because his teammates are bums" (even, if his stats are terrible).

Its always Lebron’s teammates that gets the blame lol i though bron makes his teammates better? Ya’ll contradicting that right now? You crucify westbrook and label him a stat padder and saying he’s the reason why they are losing even though he put up big numbers lol Now if its Lebron its always his teammates fault cause bron has good numbers. Lol nba fans are smarter than that lol Bron scored 19 pts last night in 1-8 shooting 3pt and 5 turnovers why didnt he took any blame? I thought leaders should be held accountable lol

If they watched these recent games, LeBron has done some really bad decisions in the clutch. How often is he hogging the ball and then passing to someone in the last second? Or the ball circles back to him with a few seconds left, so he can chuck up a bad 3? Game is so much easier when you have a top 5 player as your teammate, who does it on both ends.

@Tony Got Bars they also had rondo the Celtics had an all star team dafuck are you talking about Ray Allen Paul pierce kg rondo big baby not only did they have a big 3 they also had good role players and a decent bench Howard was considered the best center in the game at one time going to the finals so wtf are you talking about that same team the Celtics beat the Lakers
Tony Got Bars
Month ago
You gonna bring up him not having a top 5 player in the finals. But not mention Dwight Howard or Paul Pierce didn’t have top 5 player either. An don’t say Ray Allen or KG was a top 5 player because you know damn well they both were out of there primes
Tony Got Bars
Month ago
So who was a top 5 player or even an all star next to Dwight Howard? An in that Game 7 against the Celtics kobe had 23, Gasol had 19, & Metta World peace had 20. An let me school you real quick you said he wasn’t good on other teams right. You just made my point. He averaged 18 & 10 in 2010 & 18&11 in 2009 in regular season. In the 2009 finals he averaged 18&9. In the 2010 finals he averaged 18&11 in the finals.

@Tony Got Bars p.s pau was a good player but without Kobe he wouldn't have accomplished anything he played with chicago Memphis San Antonio and accomplished nothing he became a champion along side Kobe might I add who already had 3 learn the difference between superstar and star Kobe could have had any big man that could score and won pau played with stars other then Kobe and lost do you understand the difference or you need more schooling and don't say shaq and Kobe lol both are top 5 players and both won without each other shaq had a top 5 player in wade Kobe had pau who was not and never been a top 5 player

AD is worn out from banging in the paint. Howard and McGee gave him a break last season. Now he has to carry the big man load. Gasol is perimeter now and trying to mooch a ring, Harrell plateaued with the Clips and is back to being another rotation dude.

I feel like lebrons been great this season for coming off a 74 day offseason he’s coasting on defense unless it’s the last 2 mins but that’s okay he’s been carrying them Anthony Davis has been a relatively non factor this season even when was playing he wasn’t himself

Unprecedented for Lebron to win MVP at 36? Jordan did it at 35 in 98' (Karl Malone and Kareem also won it at 35). It would be unprecedented if he wins it while players with better records and numbers don't win it, I'll give you that.

I wonder if Lebron wins Mvp and Kd wins finals MVP. Who would be considered the best player in the league?
T Mot
Month ago
@Siboniso Duma Peopke keep going back and forth on that topic. Kd was “the best” during 2019 until he got hurt. Then it was between Kawhi and Lebron until Lebron took it back last year. At this point I think Kd is best in the league, but Lebron is the most valuable.
Siboniso Duma
Month ago
KD would but the media would say Lebron.
mike hudson
Month ago
Ric Bucher is confused. Bucher says Lebron's not very good because Lebron's Win Shares are at the lowest in his career. But win shares are cumulative. Lebron has "just" 4.3 Win Shares this year, compared to 9.8 last season, but that's 4.3 in 31 games. In fact, he's 9th in the league this season in Win Shares -- and, amazingly, at 36 years old -- 2nd in Defensive Win Shares at 2.0, just 0.1 behind the league leader Rudy Gobert. LBJ's also tied for 2nd in Value Over Replacement Player and is also 6th in Boxscore Plus Minus. And all this after the Lakers and, to some degree, LBJ himself, have been in a bit of a slump with AD and Dennis Schroder out. It's seems reasonable to expect the Lakers to make some adjustments and play a bit better even while shorthanded, and then play much better when AD and Schroder come back. That should nudge Lebron's advanced metrics to even higher levels.

Lebron continues to hog the ball even when he is shooting bricks. It's time to let others shoot. This is the only thing wrong in the way Lakers play without AD and Schroeder.
