Well, i see him that Pelinka wanted to make a younger roster due to small ball... He got younger legs like Schroder, Harrell and two solid veterans like Matthews and Gasol but these last two players werent the players once were even as role or key players. Schroder came to make it easier to Lebron, being the main PG but that wasn't his role at all. That was too much for him. His role with Ham was the best for him, off bench and being a stopper making clutch plays. Harrel, was athletic but lack of post defense, size and rebounding. In the other hand, Rondo and Bradley didnt want to renew with the Lakers seeking a better contract. One other thing, before the injury plague these roster was 21-6 at some point... which means healthy they were pretty good but then once LJ and AD got injured, everything started to going down. Schroder didnt step it up and there was no plays at all for Kuzma. We got Drummond but was too late for him because the urgency was already at its peak. So i blame for this things.. 1. Injuries and 2. Some not great additions to have a depth bench like Matthews or Gasol. 3. Schroder wasn't the kind of guy to get the job done a second or first attacking option. He choked like he does, thats him. Should've kept their 2020 champion roster? Yes but with adding a few new additions but that just my opinion.

That game against the Mavs was my favorite, Danny Green tying it with the 3 at the buzzer and Bron was bouncing around like he was back in 2009 😭
Fax😂
I’ve been thinking about scheduling the 2020 season from first game to last due to not watching a single Mavs game ( 44 years in DFW ) or any other for that matter ; couldn’t even tell you who the Late Show played in the Finals but without a doubt I could wisely say that Luka cried and pouted and stomped up and down as his hissy fit would continue under our basket while T.H. and J.B. struggle to play 4 on 5 at the other end of the court . After that , it’s all a mystery ( of course except for the Late Show getting it done . This will be kinda cool . Congrats Late Show . ; )
One of the most fun teams to watch this century
If LeBron kept his head in the game with everybody else's instead of just leading towards a championship, then they're to tired to win it 🏆
This Lakers was just dominating the league 🔥
The 2020 Lakers had it all, Shooters, playmakers, and rim protectors like why did they let that team go it was perfect
@@futurestrykerz9777 the next season they suffered injuries and jumped the gun trying to get a high motor, iron man type of play like Westbrook and that didn't work out.
noone cared about this shortened season, suspended players from unreliable tests, no public, no show, mickey jail.
Complete team i miss it and AD was at the 4
@@valuxlevelux5618but if YOUR favorite team had won… your narrative would be vastly different. Funny how that works
Damn man I miss this squad! But our new squad also has the potential to get an disgusting amount of chemistry together. Here’s to hoping. 🙏🏾
It all depends on our health tbh
@@BlackBruceLeeTheGreatDekuTree dey look good rite now wit dis roster..dats fo sho..
🙏🙏🙏🙏
PG Lebron was one of the most dominating things I've seen him do throughout his entire career. Made it look too easy.
It's crazy that he can play all 5 positions if he needs to. But PG Lebron is on another level.
31:47 "I know theyre the Lakers but damn!" never gets old 😄
Derrick rose said that?
That was d rose😂
This team is monster in blocks and rebounds. Twin tower roster that time.
This what ppl dont understand, big and athletic like they were it make a big difference. It was found how they traded for Javale and didn't bring back Howard. Injuries destroyed the whole team
LeBron never fails to IMPRESS
People wanna say the bubble wasn’t legit but they forget the Lakers were absolutely dominant prior to covid
You're absolutely right. They had the best record in the league heading into the bubble. They also beat the Clippers and Bucks back to back, which for me, solidified them as favourites to win the chip. They absolutely deserved to be champions. Full stop
@@ChyeahWill No the Bucks had the best record heading into the bubble, Lakers were second.
nobody would be saying sh*t if the clippers or heat won the championship that season so they 🧢🧢🧢🧢
They only saying it wasn't legit because Lakers with LBJ wins it if other team wins it I don't gonna hear that bullshit Bubble narrative
@ChyeahWill if Miami was healthy in the finals, Miami most definitely would've won the finals
With no parade 🎉
To put into perspective - The Lakers won this for Kobe in the year of the Icon's passing. RIP Kobe and Gianna Bryant, John Altobelli, Keri Altobelli, Alyssa Altobelli, Christina Mauser, Sarah Chester, Payton Chester and Ara Zobayan
This was the best the Lakers had looked since 2009 when they were steamrolling the league. The team was exuding a championship vibe before the season started and they didn’t disappoint.
How come Lakers been trash 🗑 ever since 2020 ring?
@@JuwanTaylor-jz5zr OMG 😱 a three year championship drought! Stop the presses! Kind of hard to compete for a ring when you’re injured and the team is dysfunctional. Ask the Clippers, Nets, Bucks, and Warriors.
@dlasalle5819 warriors are a dynasty that's finna win their 5th ring and Lakers haven't beat clippers in two years 🤣🤣🤣🤣. That Lakers 2020 ring fluke af fr. It shows this lebron era Lakers are really trash 🗑 and Lakers was fully healthy for this year playoffs n got swept by Denver
@@JuwanTaylor-jz5zr how was the ring a fluke when they dominated the regular season even before COVID and the post season? Sound like a salty warriors fan to me shrug
@dlasalle5819 it was fluke, lillard was injured and Miami was injured in the finals. 2020 was fluke. 2019, 2021,2022,2023 are the real Lakers. Lakers miss 2 playoffs and just got swept by Denver. Lakers will be trash 🗑 next season and miss playoffs
One of the few years of watching the NBA where I watched almost, if not, every game of the season. The hype from getting AD in the offseason and seeing them try to win the chip was one of the most exciting times of being an NBA fan.
True that. People don’t understand how much it payed off in the end to be a lakers fan that year regardless of COVID and the lockdowns. From the first few games being lost to the clippers, people started to doubt this team around christmas. I won so many bets by the post season you wouldn’t believe how many people still thought the clippers or bucks would win it all that year
Bron's heat check 3s vs the Spurs were crazy! Kuz bubble game winner AD's block vs MPJ and Kobe gamer vs Nuggets
Dwight, McGee and AD were alley oop machines for the Lakers, all the ball handler had to do was throw it up after a pick and roll for an easy dunk
This was a true definition of the Lake show! They were lobbing balls all year. This was complimentary basketball all the way around. I told my buddy I felt this laker team was going to win the chip well before COVID happened!
I will never understand teams blowing up their rosters of winning a chip. This team was amazing.
Well, i see him that Pelinka wanted to make a younger roster due to small ball... He got younger legs like Schroder, Harrell and two solid veterans like Matthews and Gasol but these last two players werent the players once were even as role or key players. Schroder came to make it easier to Lebron, being the main PG but that wasn't his role at all. That was too much for him. His role with Ham was the best for him, off bench and being a stopper making clutch plays. Harrel, was athletic but lack of post defense, size and rebounding. In the other hand, Rondo and Bradley didnt want to renew with the Lakers seeking a better contract. One other thing, before the injury plague these roster was 21-6 at some point... which means healthy they were pretty good but then once LJ and AD got injured, everything started to going down. Schroder didnt step it up and there was no plays at all for Kuzma. We got Drummond but was too late for him because the urgency was already at its peak. So i blame for this things.. 1. Injuries and 2. Some not great additions to have a depth bench like Matthews or Gasol. 3. Schroder wasn't the kind of guy to get the job done a second or first attacking option. He choked like he does, thats him. Should've kept their 2020 champion roster? Yes but with adding a few new additions but that just my opinion.
@@theroster906 Indeed, yep.
@@thefixer2k951they failed when they let go of their two perimeter big men
@@antaramorfe7083 When?after the bubble or when they traded everyone with the Westbrook trade? but yes, they lost KCP and AC.
If only Danny Green would’ve made that game winning shot. Would’ve been the cherry on top.
facts, Bron had 40 too
AND THE JERSEY THEY WAS WEARING! Man, I always think what if AD or Bron said "THIS ONE'S FOR KOBE" that wouldve had everyone crying
Man, Danny Green was part of Spurs, Raptors and Lakers for the championship. Perfect shooting guard for star players. Defender, tall for position and 3 point shooter.
I still remember him getting death threats after that game too
On Kobe’s jersey too but it’s all cool tho we won it all on our current era jersey design, our current lakers jersey design is forever goated!
people are quick to criticise the bubble championship, but forget that Lakers were destroying top seeded teams in the reg season.
I miss the 2020 Bron and AD version. AD's hunger and Bron willing to win championship a true leader..wish Bron and AD play this long after this 2019-2020 season
i miss this team so much. Time to pray that our boys make a legendary run this time
that year and this team made me fell in love with basketball thank you nba for 1hour of this masterpiece
I miss this team man. Never even got a parade
if only Lakers stick with this squad after they win a chip
This is what the Lakers missing, a center, that eases AD a little bit
They got Mo bamba but he got hurt. They can still sign a big guy since they have a roster spot
@@kahlil2classy798if bamba was healthy all way along i cant imagine how far he would develop
I will never forget this team💜💛
For some reason I knew they’d win it all just after watching the first game. That team was special! 💜💛 Crazy how they couldn’t maintain the same roster the next season considering the chemistry they had developed.
I can't wait for the 1 hour of the 2023 NBA Championship Lakers
Watching them dominate players who are currently in the playoffs >>>>>>>>>
After watching Game 3 vs the Warriors, I can see the hunger for a chip. They just need to be stay consistent in Game 5 and then I can really see them winning the championship
well shit
@@richard-er6zn it's alright they will have the 1 hour for the 2024 Championship
2020 was their last championship
The best "PG Bron" szn in recent memory!
Remembering this times are so great.
This team was underrated & had hella chemistry Such a shame it was only 1 championship
This video is the perfect answer to "Why does everyone say that Defense brings titles?" What a team chemistry & balance 🥰
Missed those days... ❤️🩹
Me too, bro..💔
I like this team thoooooo. 7th seed baby
THIS IS THE MOST COMPLETE LAKER ROSTER FOR ME. BALANCE IN EVERY POSITION.
Such a great team. So much heart so much grit. I loved cheering for this team they played so hard every game every play
The Lakers did so well, I'm looking forward to seeing more
This Lakers chemistry was very amazing and the roster was completed Rondo leads the bench with KCP, Kuzma, Caruso, Morris and Dwight Rondo also knew how to play with AD, let him play so comfort Mcgee and Dwight protect the rim and AD
I miss this team soooo much 😍😭💜💛🏆
I loved this team and this season. I don’t think I missed a single game. It’ll definitely be a historical one being what happened in 2020 leading to the bubble. Go lakers !
Fun, beautiful, energetic basketball. Couldn’t ask for a better roster to root for that season.
20:24 - my absolute favorite highlight from that whole year, not only because it was a great play by an unlikely character, but the fact that Danny Green got drug tested the next day 🤣🤣
This year's Lakers got a chance to win that chip....
Mamba Forever 🙏💜💛
Dwight being slept in is crazy idk how golden state couldn’t have used him this year
We still have a chance with this team but that chance would be even greater if we started with this team since october
This was refreshing ❤
Lakers should’ve kept these players and tried to defend their title cause this team is so great at both ends. This team among what ifs
the chemistry of this team!!! I miss it fr
none of this would've been possible without Jared Dudley
AD looked so healthy this series.
Lebron seems alot more agile that year. Def can tell he slowed down now that i watched this vid
It just didn’t feel as special without the Lakers fans there. No fans, no riots, no Kobe 😞
one of my favourite teams of all time...sucks we couldn't keep dwight or rondo
As a lakers fan I loved this squad playing together. every single one of them fitted so perfectly and they all knew their roles. If they would’ve kept the same pieces together maybe they’ll have 3 championship by now together.
Miss this team so much 💜💛
This team was special! Due to chemistry!😊😊😊
You can still see Kobe sitting at the bench on the early part of this vid. rip legend
Lakers was the strongest team ... That seasons 💪🔥
Everyone forgets how the Lakers were ballin out of control before the pandemic. Their chemistry was unmatched and the best part was everyone picking the Clippers over the Lakers 😂😂😂 🏆🏆🏆🏆
Once in a lifetime Laker team man 😢 i miss it
Hearing them say “Kobe Bryant in attendance” at 21:24 is still unreal. RIP Bean
I randomly skipped to that point, and it broke my heart hearing that. Still can't believe he's gone..
Miss this team!!!
It's such a fun team to watch. They didn't need crazy roster, they just did what they were capable of and had fun every game I remember people say they're too slow to do something, but in the playoffs we know that you need concentration to do it all. And while teams were trying to outrun them they would just be ready for them in the paint 💪
This team was perfect. Could've gone for another ring if they kept this roster.
Man i miss 2020 lakers 😢
the badass line up for the lakers 🔥🔥🔥
Man, This team 🔥👏🏽
I miss this team, we had so much fun!!
I miss this team mabuti pa yung ganitong line up ng lakers dati kasi si davis is power forward nag lalaro tapos meron mga center na kasama talaga 😢😢
THIS TEAM BUILT FOR THE CHIP .. 🤯
People are just going to keep calling this team fake because of that bubble nonsense lol.

Haters : doesn't count
@@berylmirayu9019 Yeah they deserve that championship because they worked hard all year for it short season or not.
it's just everything fits perfectly in this Laker team
This is a premonition that the Lakers will win this year.
I miss this team. Never realized how good we had it until it’s gone.
The bubble championship is one of the hardest things. So many guys wanted out. If Lakers lost how Clippers lost this would be talked about for Bron like the Mavs series
time to miss this roster again
That was a really good team, good year great championship 🏆
Nah nba posting this gotta mean something lakers 2023 champs
Man I miss this squad We've been through up and downs after but I'm starting to see glimpses of this squad with our current one
Hate the bubble excuses, this team had so much high IQ players, tall and physical, 100% chemistry and above average defensive players, McGee was on DPOY conversations, Dwight has one of the best Defensive resumes ever, AD was such a defensive pressence, Caruso one of the best defensive guards in the league, it was so perfectly built there was no way they was not winning with or without the bubble
In my opinion, the Lakers did not repeat because they let many of the core group go. Why fix something that was not broken????
no one was beating this team that year.
C’était l’année PARFAITE, INCROYABLE collectif, et ce que j’ai retenu de cette saison c’était La force de cette équipe en Défense
You can call this Team whatever you want, the Pandemic Champion with a Mickey Mouse ring but boy, this Laker Team had a lot of Chemistry and was a Dominant Force Offensively and Defensively. They became CHAMP for a reason!
As a laker fan this was sooo fun to watch it was literally a OP roster 😅
Dang, That Bubble Playoffs was crazy. Every Superstar/Team was healthy with NO EXCUSES.. That Lakers squad was just BETTER PERIOD..
If this team would’ve stayed together another good 2 years, 3 peat galore ! 🏆🏆🏆
Idk why they were so quick to trade that whole roster smh.
Front office messed up big time
@@tmub23 it was Bron fault
@@JuwanTaylor-jz5zr foh
@tmub23 it was, bron kept choking in playoffs its Bron fault fasho 💯💯
That's why they are 2020 Champs!
Cook aff the glass pass dweight was crazy
The Lakers season with best chemistry,highlights & dunks
Bubble AD is one of the best players of all time
You know what kills me about this is how sports critics talking about how it should be an asterisk title win because of the Covid-19 hell if any other team would've won it nobody would say anything but because it's LeBron it shouldn't count
