I'm not crazy about Poetl tbh Pros -Good defensive center -Runs the floor well for a center -Good rebounder -Might be relatively cheap to obtain,...
I went to look at some recent Vuc highlights, but it's Lonzo who really stood out to me.
The problem with Kessler is the offensive fit. It really mucks things up with the spacing. Kessler is a beast in terms of defense and rebounding....
It is highly unlikely to replicate 2020, because it was 5 years ago. AD and Lebron are 5 years older. Also, AD was hitting 1.2/3.5 and 33% of his...
Vucavic career per 36 minutes: 19.7 points, 12.0 rebounds, 1.0 steals, 1.0 blocks, 1.0 3FG/ 3.0 3PA ! 3 PT volume significantly higher the past 7...
Yeah, it's a no-brainer. I tried to talk myself into Kessler, but the only thing I could come up with is him being a great replacement for AD if...
Rui wouldn't reach his potential until he gets to play full time power forward and is surrounded with shooters. We have too many power forwards...
Vuc at least rebounds. I think the opportunity cost is too high to get a non-shooting big. Vuc is the ideal happy medium player if you will.
Yup. Getting Vuc seems to be one of the least polarizing trade candidates amongst Lakers fans, somewhat like DFS was, but Vuc has higher upside...
The biggest thing I took away from this was that he said Lebron and AD don't want the Lakers to mortgage their future. That is very informative...
Prior to Max's emergence, I was really pushing for the Lakers to get a point of attack defender as the number one priority. But since that time,...
Sadly, at 40 years old Lebron is still probably a better defender at the 3 than Rui. A lot of it is iq.
I know they are different positions, but fwiw Vuc DBPM this season is -0.2 and 0.2 for his career. Rui is -0.7 this season and -1.2 for his career.
After the trades: DFS > Rui Higher volume 3s/ Lower usage/Better Defender Max > Dlo Better defender / Max approaching equal volume as Dlo /...
Exactly. Vuc a much higher volume 3 pt shooter than Rui. This trade is the type of trade that would kind of make everybody happy. The Kessler...
The cleanest trade the Lakers could make to satisfy AD would be something like Rui + Wood + 2029 1st (top-14 protected) + 2025 Lakers 2nd to...
Not sure if this has been mentioned, or if it even matters. But, I wonder if AD has spoken with Lebron about Lebron moving to the 3. I feel that...
I'm not a fan of BI. He's another ball stopper. We have too many of those guys already. I think it's rediculous that people keep mentioning BI and...
Well he's a higher volume 3 pt shooter and better rebounder than Rui, I give him that. But with that said, I still wouldn't want him. His 3...
Yeah, the Stepian rule. Before the trade, their only 1st in the next few years was 2031, and it's not tradable.
