Nets To Offer Reaves Max Contract? | What Lakers Can Learn From Knicks & Spurs | Guest: Jovan Buha

 

could we S&T for MPJ in theory?

 

Please for the love of all the things good, do not bring MPJ or Booker to the lakers.

 

I'd love to have a legit volume shooter like MPJ on the team but its just not a fit with our current construction.

 

I'm just not a fan, he is an airhead on offence, constant injury concern and a poor defender that wants the max.

Rui would probably settle for MLE money which will be 1/3rd of MPJ's contract.

 

i've always felt like mpj was super overrated, and nothing that happened last year shifted my thinking at all. he can't defend anyone (and often doesn't try to), he can't drive or pass. he's a big shooter. he's better than rui because he rebounds a little better and can shoot on the move, but he's worth maybe a little more than half his salary, and that's IF he could stay on the floor.

reaves is a bona fide three-level scorer who is a better defender than mpj. it's not close for me.
