    I look at Sexton as our Luke Kennard replacement. Younger, more athletic and a bucket. My second favorite acquisition this summer behind Kessler.

    Yeah, as much as we liked Luke for his shooting and IQ, he was never a 6th man type of scorer. Luke can get you a constant 10 pts and 20+ on occasion. Sexton can average 20 and explode for 40. As a bucket-getter Sexton is on a completely different tier.

    You are a breath of fresh air @Toklat in a huge tunnel of doom here lately. Keep it up.

    I tried to reply to both you and Cookie but got it all messed up...lol. Yes, huge tunnel of doom has to be used somewhere. The Dame of Doom sets us apart from other sites and will always be my favorite thread. This upcoming season we will be enjoying coffee and doom often. I'm hoping North Pole Roasters will have a couple new flavors out for the occasion.

    I like seeing all those inside passes and drives to the paint

    It keeps the defense honest and creates easy points

    We need that so we don't live at the 3 line

    I see Sexton having a Malik Monk type arc in LA. I predict he’ll become a fan favorite. He has those intangibles that endear to Lakers fans of being a fearless dog with swagger.
