The Spurs aren’t anywhere near as bad as what their record says, and we all know it remember how they started the season and now all the sudden they can’t win a game hmmm I don’t think so I think head coach is tanking
@shye hopper I’ve probably forgot more about basketball then you a ever know and it’s not his natural position but it’s the position he’s always played wit the exception of the 2 years him and boogie were together but majority of his career is played at the center position. He is better than both Jokic and embid which is why he always give them that work when they play. He is more agile, athletic, better rebounder, handles and plays way better defense that joel it’s not even close between them. He plays better defense, moves better and handles than Jokic so yes when you compare every aspect of those 3 games ad is better. I would love to hear what makes Jokic and embid better cuz across the board AD does everything those 2 have areas they lack in and that’s all facts
@TheBetterOdds1 omg you don’t know basketball at all if you think AD is naturally a center first off second if you think he better than Joel or joker rn you’re crazy
@shye hopper 🧢 AD is a center and he is the best center in the nba how many rings has Kwahi and KD won since AD been in LA? Cuz AD got 1 how they done more? Neither one has sniffed a NBA finals appearance
@TheBetterOdds1 KD had real injuries been hurt came back and still done more then AD ever has alone …Kawhi got rings …He had knee surgery came back doing more then AD ever has …AD isn’t consistent like I said he could never be better than Giannis someone that plays his position but don’t get the recognition he deserve AD is overrated
@Muffin Machine Yeah, that's really dumb. He should never have more than one guard who's under 6' 4" on the floor at the same time, so either Schroder or Russ. And definitely NEVER three guards who're under 6' 4" in the same lineup. We need to trade Beverley. He's had some good games recently, but we need more size at the guard position. Russ and Beverley are normal PG size at 6' 2" and 6' 3" - Schroder is undersized at 6' 1", but he's younger and better than Beverley, so I'd keep him and Russ and trade Bev, although I do like Bev's intensity and fighting spirit.
This is one of the reasons I make the case for Kobe Bryant being the goat. During that time in the 2000s you had several western conference teams that were insanely stacked including the Spurs, Lakers , Suns and the Mavericks.
Every game that AD and Bron has 20+ a piece is a game that LeBron doesn’t have to get 40 plus on his own. Not to mention the defense. We aren’t winning anything without AD so we might as well support him. Welcome back and I hope he stays healthy because he was balling out before this last injury and LeBron can relax a bit.
Man i feel like Anthony Davis got so many expecting him to get hurt... So in an effort to send bro good vibes...A.D. WILL REMAIN HEALTHY THE REMAINDER OF THE YEAR!!! 👀🙏🏾🙏🏾💪🏾💯💯💯
@xDeadEye420x exactly bro! When you have two grown men that care about each other, their job and what they represent. Then you can see how they can settle differences, apologize, forgive and move forward.
@Pxmpeee I will tell you I was wrong if he stays healthy rest of the season. But just in the game he fell and he almost made it look like something was wrong again luckily it wasn't. But yeah if he stays healthy I will gladly say I was wrong
On 2 separate occasions: Skip "I got niang to defend Tatum or brown" and "hachimura can defend at the highest level"....😑 that right there encapsulated just how much skip understands n even watches basketball.
@Patrick Westbrook might end up in the hall of fame but he is certainly not a hall of fame caliber player at this stage of his career. They still lack shooting which hopefully they can address by the deadline.
I liked what i saw from AD & Rui I think AD need to be more diligent when he lands it’s almost like he can’t feel his legs or control his footing every time he goes down I gasp cause he can roll/twist a ankle like it’s nothing
The Lakers should keep playing through James to lighten Ad's load let him focus on defense and rebounding...if they work him too hard he'll definitely get hurt
Everyone plays their best games against the Lakers... So I wasn't surprised by the close game. I knew we were gonna win regardless of being down through 3 qtrs
I hope and pray AD stay healthy mane like bro so gifted and talented like at his best hands down can be the best player in league defensively and offensively like really how many ppl can say that this mane can give u 60 and 6 blk 4 steal and not mention how many shot he’ll change at the rim or make the driver kick back out
it’s so funny how i knew they wouldn’t give kyrie any credit for those 2 games of leading the nets but as soon as he plays a terrible game you won’t hear the end of it
man, if something would have happened to this national treasure, shannon sharpe at the grizzlies game, then the grizzlies would have become the seatle super sonics.
What people don't understand is that the whole 29 teams hate the Lakers so so much and add that some hate Lebron too so every single team when they play Lebron's Lakeres bring their A game their best game to humiliate the team that they hate and the player that they hate.
11:09 Shannon should troll Skip by saying, "What ever happened to Tom Gone?" the same way Skip did to Shannon after the Lakers missed the Play-in Tournament last year. 🤣
@Dakota Bron has always been efficient even this year he's 3 point shot is low even for him but he's still shooting around 50% FG because he still takes smart shots he's IQ won't go away but he has lost lift
@Trejohn Smith You don't lose your jumpshot with age, his burst to the basket obviously is going to take a hit but he was never known for being "efficient"
@Dakota to be fair Bron has always been an average 3 point shooter he'll have he's nights like last game out 9/14 from deep but Bron at 38 has been playing great but one thing that has shown age is his jumpshot and he's burst to the basket.
Right, Skips argument is always three pointers when Lebron has never been a three point shooter, Jordan wasn't a three point shooter either, neither was Kobe,
NGL I think guys are purposely trying to hurt AD. They know he's injury prone so they tend to be in his landing space seems like every game at least once.
I'm a Lakers Nation 4 life, but I can't when guy's like skip and Shannon down grade teams.. Every team and active players deserve respect.. So many people now are players fan instead of team fans.. I'm a Mets fan and jets fans. (yeah I'm a new Yorker 😂..).. A lot of people lost the true meaning of sports.. And that's a big part of the reason why shows like these are hurting the sports world instead of helping it.. ✌️
Lakers still missing two starters and I know ppl doing to say we ain't worried bout Lonnie walker and Austin REEVERS but walker athletic ability helps them and both him and REEVERS can hit 3 ball and REEVERS plays defense so Idk how long their out but I see Lakers making a push and coming off this next road trip boston, nets, and whoever else they said Lakers come out this with a winning record
Skip acting like the Spurs could do any better with other coaching. Pop has made it clear this season is about development of the young talent... That's his main focus. Heck, just look at the improvement already from Sochan this season.
nice TEAM WIN....almost past out on that play with AD landing crazy....THANK GOD tho...loved seeing LBJ & AD @ the end of the game giving props to THEE LEGEND of coaching POPS...welp ON 2 tha NEXT 1...
Listen to The Skip Bayless Show podcast: sprtspod.fox/SkipBaylessShowPodcast
@James Simpson my l
The Spurs aren’t anywhere near as bad as what their record says, and we all know it remember how they started the season and now all the sudden they can’t win a game hmmm I don’t think so I think head coach is tanking
I just hope AD can finish the season healthy. That guy is so talented and seeing him in street clothes is just sad.
@shye hopper I’ve probably forgot more about basketball then you a ever know and it’s not his natural position but it’s the position he’s always played wit the exception of the 2 years him and boogie were together but majority of his career is played at the center position.

@shye hopper 🧢 AD is a center and he is the best center in the nba how many rings has Kwahi and KD won since AD been in LA? Cuz AD got 1 how they done more? Neither one has sniffed a NBA finals appearance
@TheBetterOdds1 and injuries matter when you not taking care of your body properly
@TheBetterOdds1 KD had real injuries been hurt came back and still done more then AD ever has alone …Kawhi got rings …He had knee surgery came back doing more then AD ever has …AD isn’t consistent like I said he could never be better than Giannis someone that plays his position but don’t get the recognition he deserve AD is overrated
Skip: “Can you believe the lonely Spurs led 82-81 going to the 4th quarter?”
Shannon: “Because we turned it over, we let y’all feel good”
@Muffin Machine
Yeah, that's really dumb. He should never have more than one guard who's under 6' 4" on the floor at the same time, so either Schroder or Russ. And definitely NEVER three guards who're under 6' 4" in the same lineup. We need to trade Beverley. He's had some good games recently, but we need more size at the guard position.

@Johnny Bravo
I'm talking about this season, not when they were championship contenders.
Only reason the spurs were leading is because Darvin Ham has a fetish for having 3 guard lineups (Russ, Dennis and Bev)
@HinjuRock they also broke the record for most fans in attendance the same year though so 🥱🥱
@mansonlamps 🤓🤓
I miss this rivalry 15-20 years ago between the lakers & spurs!
Those Kings Lakers series were 🔥
This is one of the reasons I make the case for Kobe Bryant being the goat. During that time in the 2000s you had several western conference teams that were insanely stacked including the Spurs, Lakers , Suns and the Mavericks.
I miss that Nba..
Oh heaven thanks, this Skip and Shannon tandem is a gift to humanity,, they always give us a smile,,, keep rocking Skip and Shannon and Fox....
“How many bads can I use to describe the Spurs and you know they’re bad too” 😂😂😂
@Johnny Bravo yeah ikr cuz they not 🤣
@IZE Lawrence fr 😂 😂 can't understand why ppl think they're actually trying 😂😂😂
They're tanking 😭😭😭
Sound like Michael Jackson "you know I'm bad, I'm bad!!!"🤣🤣🤣
😂😂😂😂😂
Every game that AD and Bron has 20+ a piece is a game that LeBron doesn’t have to get 40 plus on his own. Not to mention the defense.

“You ain’t going in there hand behind your head like you’re Karl Malone” 😂😂😂
The mail man delivered
their interaction at 12:57 was hilarious 😂😂Hachimura’s here to stay. lmao
Had me dying
“I got defenders… I got niang, maxey, and harden” 😂😂😂😂
literally crying at that 💀💀💀
I dont know how shannon missed that one!🤣🤣🤣 Harden....
Spraining his ankle on a half court shot at the end of the 3rd is just sooooooooo Anthony Day to Dayvis
All jokes aside about AD, he is just unlucky simply put.
@Tyler west no one is saying AD is a bum but he is objectively fragile
@Kwesi Clarke oh okay you convinced me 😂
AD only gets injured when its a minor bump… something like last night where it looks painful he will playthrough😂
These 2 seem very friendly with each other recently. Seems like they deliberately not arguing with one another
@xDeadEye420x exactly bro! When you have two grown men that care about each other, their job and what they represent. Then you can see how they can settle differences, apologize, forgive and move forward.
@Bisi Mexico Nope all business, just playing the role for the show especially Shannon.
@T0ky0Balling Damn sure ain't that deep.
Ratings
@xDeadEye420x ratings were probably down they had to do something to get them back up
Shoutout for Rui coming through too.
@Johnny Bravo you the joke buddy 😎
Bro you’re everywhere
We need you on TV LeBeau when Bron break the record
🤣🤣🤣 great joke
U been around for at least 8 years
Skip be trying so hard not to laugh at Shannon.😃😃
LMFAO yeah i be seeing it
"Hand behind your head like you Karl Malone" 😂
Shannon never fails to entertain LMAO
Mail man delivered
Still the best duo in the league
10:15 Shay's face was my face and I busted out laughing after Skip said Tucker... 🤦🏾♂️🤦🏾♂️💀💀🤣🤣😭😭
Tucker honestly isn't a bad choice but skip really said niang 💀💀
I'm a sixer fan & I died laughing🤣🤣🤣
Spurs just looking for that #1 pick. I really hope the Knicks get it, I'd love to see Victor playing at the Garden every night.
Spurs should get him so he can be at top level
The Return Of The Brow 🐐💪🏾 Great Win Lake Show 🏀💜💛
@Pxmpeee I will tell you I was wrong if he stays healthy rest of the season. But just in the game he fell and he almost made it look like something was wrong again luckily it wasn't. But yeah if he stays healthy I will gladly say I was wrong
Facts are real but always called hate 😂😂😂😂 poor Lakers fans 🤣
Calm down it’s the spurs. Nothing great about beating a bottom tier team
@Pxmpeee No Hate Bro, He's Just Speaking The Truth. AD Can't Stay Healthy Bro
@Pxmpeee The dude is made of glass. Not hating. Just the truth.
good to see these 2 keeping it cool after last time’s incident
The face and the way Unc says “He wasn’t suppose to play” 😂😂
Yeah man, ignorance is crazy
“That’s a great luxury to have, that I can step on the gas and you see tail lights” 😂😂😂
words cannot describe how much I love Uncle Shannon 🥺😂❤
Rui helped out also with 12/6
@John Wick on Speed Because Beal is their leader
@Darnell Williams he had 30 in December and 30 in January in under 30 minutes both games clown
@Darnell Williams which is a perfect fit for lebron lol
@John Wick on Speed yeah no
@K Kent watched almost every wizards game. Rui is below average at defense lol
I thought ad was gonna be out again he just got back from his injury man but he did good for his return he just needs to stay healthy!
Skip: I'll go 11 and 3.
Shannon: Ain't nobody listening to u.
😂🤣😂🤣
These 2 are gold together
@10:17 that look Shannon gave was funny asf🤣
Facial expressions from 12:39. Legendary. 😂😂
Lebron needs a day off now that AD is back the king held it down as much as possible Basketball is a team game Everyone has to perform💯
On 2 separate occasions: Skip "I got niang to defend Tatum or brown" and "hachimura can defend at the highest level"....😑 that right there encapsulated just how much skip understands n even watches basketball.
Rui gives us 5 guys in the rotation that are 6' 8" or taller. He helps balance out this roster.
@Patrick Westbrook might end up in the hall of fame but he is certainly not a hall of fame caliber player at this stage of his career. They still lack shooting which hopefully they can address by the deadline.
No more excuses. 3 hall of famers, Thomas Bryant, Dennis, another couple 3pt shooters.
Bring back the Super Sonics! 😭
AD’s the only “person” i know who can get an ankle injured midair. Thats how soft he is.
I don’t expect he will make it till the end of the season
😁😅😅🤣🤣
“Ill go to your front office and mess yall up “😂😂😂😂
Unc at it again!
Skip will belittle his own team if it diminishes whatever Lebron does 😮
10:12 No way skip just said niang could stop Tatum or Brown 💀
Lakers miss Reaves and Lonnie Walker get them back and the squad will be more respectable
What's wrong with them?is it serious
I’m glad I got to see the spurs in a playoff game before manu and duncan retired.
Game ball goes to AD and Rui
“I got big foot Al”😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 Love Unc!!
Lakers win by 20…
Skip: “In the first minute of the game you were only up by 1?” “Help me out is that good Mr. Hall of Famer?”
I liked what i saw from AD & Rui I think AD need to be more diligent when he lands it’s almost like he can’t feel his legs or control his footing every time he goes down I gasp cause he can roll/twist a ankle like it’s nothing
The Lakers should keep playing through James to lighten Ad's load let him focus on defense and rebounding...if they work him too hard he'll definitely get hurt
Skip looks like he wants nothing to do with Shannon
RIP Kobe/ Gigi & all those who lost their life 3 years ago today 🐍💛💜
Everyone plays their best games against the Lakers... So I wasn't surprised by the close game. I knew we were gonna win regardless of being down through 3 qtrs
“There you go , he keeps Bulljiving”😂
I hope and pray AD stay healthy mane like bro so gifted and talented like at his best hands down can be the best player in league defensively and offensively like really how many ppl can say that this mane can give u 60 and 6 blk 4 steal and not mention how many shot he’ll change at the rim or make the driver kick back out
it’s so funny how i knew they wouldn’t give kyrie any credit for those 2 games of leading the nets but as soon as he plays a terrible game you won’t hear the end of it
AD the only person I know that can wake with an injury he dreamed about.
Hope a long good health for AD, to know the full potential of lakers
man, if something would have happened to this national treasure, shannon sharpe at the grizzlies game, then the grizzlies would have become the seatle super sonics.
Skip :The're going 11/3, but shannon knows he so sarcastic and what means ..😂😂😂
“You be trying to sucker me into bets, but now I’m finna get you back though, I’ll go 9-5 for two cases right now”
Darwin ham scared me last night letting AD play more than I wanted we gonna ease him in
“If we could see that play.“ Proceeds to show skip and shannon lookinh at something we cant see
How did ya'll just leave out Rui's debut with the Lakers?!? 🤦🤦🤦🤦
They treat the man like he's just a nobody. That ain't cool 👎
Skip really be like I don’t want to hear Lebron needs help, then lists:
Reeves
Walker III
Hachimura
😂😂
What people don't understand is that the whole 29 teams hate the Lakers so so much and add that some hate Lebron too so every single team when they play Lebron's Lakeres bring their A game their best game to humiliate the team that they hate and the player that they hate.
i swallowed my heart when i saw AD fell to the ground grabbing his ankle, i start crying out "already?"
11:09 Shannon should troll Skip by saying, "What ever happened to Tom Gone?" the same way Skip did to Shannon after the Lakers missed the Play-in Tournament last year. 🤣
“He wasn’t supposed to play”🤣
I love watching these to go at it about the lakers 😂😂
“What goat do”
“He was very good”
Goteeeem
Y'all forgot Bruce Bowen he was a great defensive player
Through hypnosis these show has made me a Lakers fan
i have mini heart attack because of davis, watch the foot davis watch the foot ... SMH
Facts Skip, that’s why always 60-40
Skip putting out false expectations for lebron as usual 😂
@Dakota Bron has always been efficient even this year he's 3 point shot is low even for him but he's still shooting around 50% FG because he still takes smart shots he's IQ won't go away but he has lost lift

Right, Skips argument is always three pointers when Lebron has never been a three point shooter, Jordan wasn't a three point shooter either, neither was Kobe,
Skip has checked out in this deal no emotion just working damm I been a day one too 😄
NGL I think guys are purposely trying to hurt AD. They know he's injury prone so they tend to be in his landing space seems like every game at least once.
Actually the Spurs are tanking for Victor Wembanyama! Notice they were up 10 and couldn't miss. Great coach then they slowed up at the end ..... 🤔
I hope they can stay together like John & Pat.
"He wasn't supposed to play!" lmao
When Shannon brings up single game avg, Skip always bring up season avg.
Shoutout unc for being a true professional can hardly tell him and skip got into it a few weeks ago on air
Shannon: "Lil ole bobcats. Yup. Lil baby tails." 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Just let AD play about 25 minutes a night until the playoffs. Well, if they make it.
Healthy AD they can give me hope again. They look way different with AD on the floor.
I really wonder what the diet Mountain Dew count is at for both of them since this show started😂😂😂😂
Facts
I'm a Lakers Nation 4 life, but I can't when guy's like skip and Shannon down grade teams.. Every team and active players deserve respect.. So many people now are players fan instead of team fans.. I'm a Mets fan and jets fans. (yeah I'm a new Yorker 😂..).. A lot of people lost the true meaning of sports.. And that's a big part of the reason why shows like these are hurting the sports world instead of helping it.. ✌️
No way skip said niang guarding tatum and brown😂😂😂😂
AD saw Bron on the bench during the clips game and decided to suit up finally.
LeBron on track to get that record against OKC
He throwing your hand behind your head like Karl Malone I remember when Karl used to do that lol 😆 😂
How many times will he land on it again before the end of the season? Over or under three times?
Waaaaay over.
under
@thelegendary1 Under
Over
4th quarter Spurs tank 4 Wemba: oh shoot we forgot
Lakers still missing two starters and I know ppl doing to say we ain't worried bout Lonnie walker and Austin REEVERS but walker athletic ability helps them and both him and REEVERS can hit 3 ball and REEVERS plays defense so Idk how long their out but I see Lakers making a push and coming off this next road trip boston, nets, and whoever else they said Lakers come out this with a winning record
The Spurs had Bruce Bowens too.
They still need another big to help him out ..where's Cousins and Lenard? What's the update?
Skip acting like the Spurs could do any better with other coaching. Pop has made it clear this season is about development of the young talent... That's his main focus. Heck, just look at the improvement already from Sochan this season.
7:45 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 HE WASN'T SUPPOSED TO PLAY
We're going on a run, just wait till reaves gets back too
Damn shannon pulled out the artis gilmore card on the spurs…. I forgot about that bro he got some deep knowledge
nice TEAM WIN....almost past out on that play with AD landing crazy....THANK GOD tho...loved seeing LBJ & AD @ the end of the game giving props to THEE LEGEND of coaching POPS...welp ON 2 tha NEXT 1...
RISE RISE RISE LAKERSSS ❤️❤️❤️💯💯💯💯
The man just got back 😂😂
Oh AD is back? Oh that’s good, I mean yeah it’s his health man but if he’s healthy they can make the playoffs and be a tough team to beat
