Hey Jerry Seinfeld is on the show 😂

[@andycat109]

Pincus the Great!

[@nickice7009]

Great show as always. When I listen to Eric talk he sounds allot like a younger Danny Ainge

[@2gulfalco]

Max Christie is more important to bring back than Dlo!

[@dmitryowens]

Perhaps, but whoever our new coach ends up being, he needs to give Max at least 20 mpg. Get rid of Vincent and Reddish - they're virtually nonexistent on offense.

[@icecoldac3]

Yes absolutely

[@dmitryowens]

As a longtime Lakers fan, I don't like the Knicks - not a fan of Brunson. I like Julius Randle and Josh Hart, but Randle isn't even playing. If I'm going to root for any teams now that the Lakers have been eliminated, I'll go with OKC and the Pacers. And Mitchell Robinson should just retire - he just turned 26 but he's constantly getting injured and missing numerous games. He only played 31 games this season and 59 the previous season, and in the 2020 season he also only played 31 games. What good is a player who misses that many games?

[@Rob24232]

Can't wait for SBC in July

[@LakerGang2001]

Eric Pincus is the cap goat but he sounded like a real 🐐 at the 3:42 mark 😂

[@THE_DEEZLE]

Damn they buried the Jamal lead and never dug it up

[@dcwayne4591]

No need to ridicule Adam Silver and the Tom foolery. Bad look for the league, NBA wants a longer series, end of story.

[@d.a.baracus1438]

Thoughts on Trae leaving Klutch for CAA? Decreases likelihood of Lakers being a realistic landing spot for him?

[@dmitryowens]

Hopefully. I don't want him on my Lakers - he's an undersized inefficient-shooting ballhog and turnover machine.

[@dax8]

Or increases it. Klutch has too much of the pie when it comes to Lakers ability to make decisions unpopular with the 2 bigs.

[@raularroyo7740]

Great he is not worthy.

[@fantasymangacomicvisionary5688]

The Sixers who already have the Most Offensive Dominant Center in Embiid, the next Kyrie in Maxey, 60 Million in Cap Space and 5 First Round Picks to get another player. So why would anyone believe LeBron isn't going to the Sixers over staying with the Lakers who have only 3 picks, No Caps Space and who going to lose DLo to the Magics or Spurs for nothing (making the Lakers even worse) or just as bad the Lakers going to have to give DLo 30 Million a year just to keep him? So the Lakers not getting Kyrie or Myles Turner last season showed everyone When Being Cheap Goes Wrong.

[@MrAxidol]

Emplay! RealGM connection

[@brigittefaison6593]

All signs point towards New Orleans prioritizing Murphy over Ingram as their wing of the future. New Orleans will have Ingram’s $36 million salary and valuable draft capital to attempt to pair another star alongside Zion Williamson.

[@dantheman1689]

Can I send you guys a basketball to autograph?

[@dlawso23]

And the Villanova Knicks won again. I like this series.

[@tayinap4269]

Thibs just play these guys through the ground and it shows in the playoffs for sure

[@andrewbeck5092]

These players don’t deserve the money they make

[@ryansproviero]

I believe the mistake was not constantly expanding over the years. They should be closing in on 40 teams by now. The amount of talent overseas and in the G League suggests they can sustain it. They make too much per team and it's caused player salaries to skyrocket. Greed got us here.

[@je5406]

They are generating revenue. They deserve what they can negotiate.

[@Gatorsssssss1]

Lakers should trade for Trey and Cappella run a lineup of Trey Vanderbilt LeBron A.D. Cappella bench JHS Christie, reddish wood and HAYES or add other bench players

[@jeremyjazwinski6349]

I'm Team Keith Smith who else will join me !?

[@dmitryowens]

TNT is the best NBA channel - the ESPN commentators and halftime show format and hosts aren't nearly as entertaining as Charles, Shaq, Kenny and Ernie.

[@ryansproviero]

The NBA should buy their contracts and move the show to NBA TV if TNT gets cut out.

[@dmitryowens]

@@ryansproviero Yeah, but far more people watch TNT than watch the NBA Channel.

[@ryansproviero]

@@dmitryowens Absolutely and for that reason there's a lot of value in acquiring it. I think a lot of people would get access to NBA TV if that's where they'd find the guys.

[@dmitryowens]

@ryansproviero Well, TNT usually comes with your basic cable package whereas NBA TV is generally part of a premium package or an add-on, so a lot of lower income people wouldn't be able to afford it.

[@ryansproviero]

@dmitryowens Have you seen your cable bill lately? Unfortunately, they're here to make money, and increasing viewership on NBA TV does that as well as selling rights to someone like Amazon. Cable is a dying revenue stream for the NBA.

[@hinjurock70]

This guest commentator is about as exciting as an H&R Block employee.

[@LakerGang2001]

He's a cap space savant named Eric Pincus. He's connected and he knows his stuff

[@hinjurock70]

@LakerGang2001 Yeah, but he has as much personality and sense of humor as a math professor.

[@andrewbeck5092]

Lakers will be a much better organization when they get rid Lebron and Robby P

[@babycakes9976]

The casual viewer isn't interested. Analytics is destroying the game. Commish gimmicks😮Fools gold Cable deal

[@andrewbeck5092]

I wish Lebron would retire so us Laker fans don’t have to hear his complaining and crying about everything

[@WolfNationChannel]

Lmao do you remember where the lakers were when he arrived be thankful and appreciate greatness most complaining is from fans like you

[@galexy2039]

Sounds like you are the only one complaining.

[@WhereIsYourID]

Thats cute, enjoy the lottery as soon as Lebron is gone

[@shawnsanders3636]

Dude we was trash before he came. The ungratefulness is nasty work.

[@alexnguyen1284]

still talking about the lakers even though they got eliminated from the playoffs like 2 weeks ago. The nba agenda to continue to push the lakers and lebron is so blatantly clear.

[@yeeluvspizza]

It got you to write a comment though.

[@Liam_Laz]

one covers the team and a good amount of the people who tune in are most likely from said channel. not the craziest thing i think u jus overreacting right now. they cover the rest of the league and do it very well.

[@diiii_mond]

Keep whining, bud.

[@ryansproviero]

It's not an agenda, it's analytics. Whether you like it or not, it generates clicks, likes, and comments. Like the comment you just left. There's a Boston fan next to him who probably doesn't love covering the Lakers but knows it's what's best for their business. I'm not a Lakers fan, just realistic.

[@AshyLarryBoi]

They talk about every team lol. U so hurt

[@juancovarrubias3187]

Nobody cares the new york knicks
