This has been the most surprising thing about this trade: Laker fans completely forgetting how the Lakers just made his life miserable. Dare him...
It honestly terrifies me trying to depend on Russ in the clutch: he is just not good in either his defensive rotations (gets lost all time or...
That would be awesome
The Lakers won the title a year ago beyond AD/Lebron with being a physically intimidating team, defensive mindset, and being an extremely high...
Also Westbrook is clearly way better then the assets given up from him: from a straight trade value this is great (if he stays healthy)
The one positive is this really should make AD at the 5 and Lebron at 4. Relative to position they are not exceptional shooters at the 3 and 4...
Well you've basically made it much harder Lebron to post up anybody now even if he's at the 4 as any decently coached team is going to sag the...
Westbrook basically forces you to run AD at the 5 for a huge chunk of time IMO. To enough spacing you need AD to be able to play inside or at the...
No depth with 2 old stars (one really old in terms of NBA miles in Lebron) and Mr. Glass in AD on top of it. Feel like we had a great first year...
And the Lakers lose their best shooter in KCP? Really don't know about this - basketball is more then just getting star players it's how they fit...
WTF kind of move is this: Westbrook is about the worst fit you can get for AD/LEbron in the halfcourt. It's like when Houston just threw Barkely...
And also Steph doesn't do stuff like this lol (got to love being asset strapped so you can somehow talk yourself into wanting guys who just see...
Well Steph is an amazing ballhandler, passer, finisher which Hield isn't lol. The way I think of it is: Hield is a more skilled Kyle Korver who...
percentile ranking based on the sportrac player tracking. HIs raw percentages are low because he shoots a lot of difficult 3's
[ATTACH] I understand your line of thinking as he's neither a good defender nor playmaker but the shooting is incorrect. Hield takes a lot of...
I want to agree but the lack of consistent shooting from him is just killing his value for the Lakers: he can do all the right things on defense,...
I think the Lakers crush both the Bucks and Phoenix if they were healthy. Once Saric went down, the Suns went from Ayton to a bunch of SF's: the...
It's actually a great place to be IMO. Similar to guys like Odom and Kukoc who were "sixth men" they would come in finishing lineups where teams...
Man this current version of the Lakers could use an Odom: more than anything else not having a forward next to Lebron who can play decent enough...
I don't like his attitude either and his contract demands are ummmm quite interesting but it's a shame we never really saw him with a healthy...
