From Randall to famous reporters: Why did the entire league collectively mock the Lakers dilemma
8:11pm, 2 July 2025Basketball
"I hate JJ!" When the Timberwolves' Randall was asked about his opinion on Lakers' new coach Redick, he laughed and threw out the joke. Although it is a joke, it reflects the subtle attitude of league players towards the chaotic status quo of the Lakers - this team, which was once regarded as a benchmark for the giants, now even their opponents dare to openly joke. The mockery within the
The alliance has long spread to every corner. Clippers player Lou Wei made a three-pointer and shouted "Stephen Curry has to give way to me", which was interpreted as a sarcastic mockery of his archenemy in the city's poor recruitment; the Warriors jokingly said in the podcast: "The Lakers signed Laravia? It seems that they really played the Summer League in the playoffs." Even comedian Song Xiaobao did not forget to joke about "supporting Liaoning Basketball Team to win the championship" when watching Staples, which caused laughter from the audience.
Learning from a deeper perspective, the Lakers' loss to laughing stock stems from three original sins: management's indecision (such as the riddle-like riddle in Haynes' show), star dependence (Doncic's words "No one can defend me" exposes the hidden danger of singles), and the collapse of locker room cohesion (Wood tweet incident). When the legendary magician Johnson remained silent and when his opponent Edwards said "to defeat them like last year", the position of this Purple Gold Legion in the Alliance's food chain was reversed - from hunters to prey for the whole Alliance to watch.
