Snoop Dogg praises LeBron James for his exceptional play, crediting him for the Lakers' success. Find out how LeBron's stellar performance is propelling LA towards victory. Read more.
Hip-hop titan Snoop Dogg, a steadfast Los Angeles Lakers supporter originating from Long Beach, California, has backed the Purple and Gold for as long as we can recall.
Recently, on The Stephen A. Smith Show, the host asked Snoop if LeBron James had done well representing the Lakers during his term in Hollywood. Snoop enthusiastically agreed.
"In the beginning, it was tough because the Clippers kept beating our a**, and Kawhi and them had commercials, and they own the city. We had to listen to that sh** every year, but the Clippers still don't have a ring, so nig*** still in the same spot y'all was in the last time we talked," said Snoop.
Then, after LeBron navigated the Lakers to their 17th trophy, the fans desired even more. Despite the subsequent shortfalls of the Purple and Gold, Snoop contends that LeBron has nonetheless delivered various other titles to the Lakers.
"He presents us with the scoring title, others graced Kareem with—we're content with that. He then bestows upon us a small In-Season title. We're embracing all these achievements because they all count," he expounded.
Snoop, while applauding LeBron's contributions in L.A., expresses that the Lakers' secret to securing another victory rests in their ability to evolve. The hip-hop legend concurs with Stephen A. that the league has experienced a youth surge, and if the Lakers wish to remain competitive, they need to innovate.
