Chris Broussard believes the Lakers aren't going to land Kawhi, Kyrie or Klay | NBA | UNDISPUTED

How do you think the Lakers should spend their money well? The first thing they would do would be Clayton. the horn now I don't think they're

going

to catch him, but he would make him honk. I would talk to michael thompson who would love Clay to be like Clay would be perfect with A.D and Lebron, I mean, break Steph's. record of 406. he broke it, oh my god look he's leaving, it would be amazing now again, I don't think it's

going

to happen, but that would be the first thing I would do. He would tell her.

We love you as number one above anyone else. pick up a table it's another 50 or 50 million yeah but here's the thing yeah so I don't think it's going to happen the only way I would consider it if they don't offer you the magic that's what you're saying , right, that's what he's saying. but I would try to let him know before you would consider it because we, you're our number one guy now, I don't think he would, but that would be number one, number two. Kawhi is a no-brainer. It's okay, it's so good, I don't worry about how they would fit in, it would be so good that they would just win it because those three players are very good, they have very good skills, three of the top 10 teams, but we thought we had passed.

The superiors and the defenses tell me when it's my turn, okay, they defensively with Kawhi and they did it. It would be crazy now, they would also max out Kawai or Kyrie. I don't know if he would do it, but they would max out Kyrie. Not you, why? Here I would do it if I just think that if you look, they worked so well together with Lebron and Kyrie, but the reason it worked well in Cleve

land

was because Kevin Love took a step back right now looking at those three with an announcement that is giving a step back, nobody, none, none of those.

The guys are going to play the role of Kevin Love Chris Bosh, so what I would like is for Lebron to see this last stage of his career as the correct Magic Johnson era and he should be the playmaker who sets up Kyrie and not , I think ads should do it. I'll probably lead him in scoring maybe Kyrie's second maybe LeBron will probably end up being second just because he gets points but if they do it I think it could work otherwise it would be a challenge just because the three games don't fit together perfectly. together so I wouldn't go crying I don't think they get any of the three clay

kawhi

or

kyrie

the other guy that's how they see d'angelo russell they don't want a max but they feel like if

kyrie

goes to Brooklyn then they'll give up on Deangelo and then They will try, they will try to get it for less than the maximum of 22 23 million, something like that.

I think what they should do if they don't get Clay or Kawhi is just go get three guys. I'm looking at Brook Lopez, I'm looking at Patrick Beverly, I'm looking at Seth Curry, I'm looking at Terence, like those are the guys you need depth, your first two are so good and Kuzma is a complete, he can be the third. boy, that's how I would do it if I were the Lakers, I just think Clay and Kawhi are so good, just take them and figure it out, but you're saying that's not going to happen anyway, yeah, I don't.

I don't think they'll get Clay Kawhi or Kyrie out of the three now, this will surprise you. I think the best chance is actually Kawhi because unless Kyrie can be in an interesting situation, I don't think the Lakers are that high on his list right now. period but if brooklyn doesn't get kd and they say you know what we won't take kyrie only if new york doesn't get kd and says no first of all we know we're your second chance second choice for brooklyn second of all We're not sure we wouldn't take that risk either and take you, so where does Kyrie go?

That's where the Lakers become. I think there's potential for Kyrie, but I don't think they get any of those three, so I think you build, go get three guys with the money, hmmm, take it, no, no, no, go ahead, 'cause I know you're cutting a little bit, you don't want the liquor to do anything anyway, so my friend Chris just said he would. It would be a no-brainer to go after number two if it's the Los Angeles Lakers, you said it right, yeah, a no-brainer, yeah, you said it would be over without you, it would be over, he predicted 75 and seven, seven, it could be seven. seventy-five and seven even though we handle the load well, it would be very low amanda is up there, okay, but they are so good in this championship that they have seven, fourteen, okay, my sixteen bad, take it all.

In this championship, they could take turns playing solo nights and they would get to 68. We will always have two or three in the lineup, okay, two threes and 68 and 14. Here's my problem with your obvious premise, you would also have no closer there is no closer among those three lebron failed miserably trying to close out games early last year and even you have admitted that at times on this show because he is a terrible free throw shooter late in the game am I right? free kicks, yes, free kick, we know. He has closed games with shots. I don't know many because now he has played 16 years and spent 15 years, well, we go back one, actually 14.

He spent 14 years having closed lightly with tee shots, he had two in 14 years that is pathetically bad given that he missed many attempts because he passed it but he made the right play, you guys always said because he was afraid of having to go to that free throw line because he knew he was going to get it. I got fouled, I'm right about that, no, no, no, I'm not a closer. and I've told you over and over again. I know Kyrie took a beating last year because of what he did poorly in Boston. He is still the best closer in basketball for me.

There is no one I would like. with the ball in his hands in the last situation of the game than Kyrie Irving, so I'm going with Kyrie right now in this situation because if an ad remembers what he was like in New Orleans, he was 34 games under 500. He has a transcendent talent According to This he does, he is per king or number three all the time, three or four all the time behind Jordan and Lebron, his record in New Orleans was 216 and 250, so 34 games under 500. Why Is it simply missing something intangible? He said that for years on television he is a tremendous player, but you need someone to say that he is our reference closer.

Toronto had a fleet of vans that closed. He made three 3-pointers in the fourth quarter of the closing game because that's who they look at. Number two happened at the end of the game. Remember he said they didn't look like vanvl. Yes, it just happened because of his egalitarian offensive. Whoever it was was in the right spot and Kawhi doesn't dominate the ball. he got you guys to give him the biggest pass to number two because it's not a club, he was never in san antonio and that was one of the reasons why they didn't offer him the maximum along with his constant injuries, but he wasn't the one indicated. -To the boy in the fourth quarter that you give the maximum to, you just have to give me a second here.

I'm going to review what just happened in these playoffs. Everyone gave him a pass for this and it drives me crazy that he failed. miserably in the fourth quarter after the fourth quarter after the fourth quarter against Philadelphia come back and look at this game two fourth quarter they lost the game he was out for three game three fourth quarter or two in the fourth quarter they lost that game let's go to milwaukee loss of the first game on three from the field in the last quarter second game loss one of four from the field in the fourth quarter this is supposed to be a guy that you say is dominating, he has transcended, he is the MVP, the runaway MVP of the playoffs, what?

It happened in the third game, they go back to Toronto, this is against Milwaukee, do you remember what happened at the last 113 of the fourth quarter? They had a five point lead and all they need to do is for him to close the scoring and Milwaukee scores five quick points. send it to extra time because number two didn't even get a shot in the final third what they do okay he didn't do it okay he took over says Shannon Sharp and that's why you're giving him a pass you're sweeping. is under the rug, the first overtime of the third game, this is the decisive game of that series for them, what did he do in the first overtime?

He missed two shots to win the game at the end of the game, remember that last 113 um? He missed, sorry, this is the first overtime. He missed two shots to win the game. Yes, I remember it well. Then we go to the second overtime game. Well, then Giannis fouled. Remember that he committed a foul like seconds after the last one. Well, then Milwaukee just gave up. You could see they're like we lost him and I don't know if he fouled out all year. I don't think he did it right. In game six, the closeout win against Milwaukee is one of four. from three in the last quarter now we are going to the final the second game they lost at home last quarter the clay falls with the hamstring with eight minutes left and steph goes down the straight goes o for o and o for o from the line that can not even I have a shot, what's number two doing down the stretch?

He's going in the fourth quarter, one of six from the floor and, oh, three of three, and you guys are praising him like he's the best thing ever and then. Guess what Nick Nurse said he said guys all we have to do is go after we go to Golden State and win one of these games and we go back to Kawasaki they said let's go get them both now Michael Jordan Kobe Bryant said that . We would have been praising them if Clay played in the third game. This is the question too. What would happen if you gave Kawhi the stats when Clay got hurt?

If Clay if Kawhi had dominated, you wouldn't have given him credit because you would have said. The clay is eliminated, did he dominate? No, but he did. He smelled blood and took charge. It was when he scored 10 points in two minutes in the fourth quarter, in game five, and he got angry and had a big outburst, and then what happened to him? There are 3 28 left in that game, he made his last shot and then down the stretch he goes over two hitting a jumper, remember that and then he had a three to win the game with 110 left to put them ahead and he missed those three.

And those were the only two shots he took down the stretch until the last shot and he turned it away because it looked like a double team was coming. It wasn't just driving, what about the foot of the game, Chris? If you want to talk about the fourth game. We had that seventeen, the third one, right, it was an explosion, but that's not the closure, that has nothing to do with the closure. So I'm going to shoot thirty at the game. The sixth game is the closing game. They lose Kevin Durant with a ruptured Achilles tendon.

They lose Clay Thompson. with the break knee and then what happens in the fourth quarter is still a see-saw game, he goes for four and or two of three in the last quarter. You like that, it's just that we're going to get what's with that buzzer beater that he's on? no you can't right, it's not a buzzer beater, it's the luckiest shot in the kitchen, it was made in how many periods, how many corner threes that hit the front iron go in, can't remember, do I know one, yeah, okay, Do you know why it was? incredibly it was blessed by the gods, it was good, maybe in Los Angeles I have never seen a shot like that in everything I have covered basketball for a lot longer than you and you can put together your basketball and it doesn't occur to you How much basketball I have seen.

I had never seen a corner three come in like that in my life. A kawaii one bounced high off the front iron. I thought he was going to fall to the ground and you admitted that you thought he was just going to fall. falls right to the ground and then catches the iron a second time and somehow strangely jumps across the edge to the furthest iron and bounces and bounces again and then falls into call touch oh english four touches of bounce yes I did it No I'm telling you that he practiced that shot when he was a kid, you know what?

I was able to hit him with ten thousand shots from the corner and he couldn't repeat that ten thousand shot. I don't know what I saw. The best shooter of all time. Steph Curry missed a shot. triple at the end of the sixth game they have never caught it they have never watched it let's talk about that in a minute the best shooters will hit 50 of their three points the best I mean not even fifty percent did it ray Allen's shot that made me shot right in the heart in game six, twenty and thirteen, hit the front iron, no it didn't hit anything but that's what it hit as long as it passes thanks for watching you can subscribe here to get the latest from the show . and be sure to check out more of the best clips from
