^ well Lou and Clarkson were making things happen, and they deserved to play over D'Angelo who had another pedestrian performance imo.
@Lakers2015 Like I said, if we can win and develop players simultaneously that would be great, but we're not winning. So we need to change...
Seems we drafted Russell based on his vision off the court.
Hmm, where did I put any blame on Russell? Don't jump to conclusions. I don't put blame on rookies. This is more about who to play as starters....
I think some of you are losing sight of the objective. Yes, developing young players are important. But we need to win games too. So we have to...
@TheGreatOneKobe Agreed, no pain no gain!
The upsides I see right now are his poise and IQ. He rarely makes the wrong play so it's reassuring to see the ball in his hands. His shots are...
Jordan and D'Angelo are going to be ridiculously good defensively in a few years. I could already see the potential. This play really had me...
I thought he had a good game last night. Mostly high percentage shots with good balance to his offense. And I really like his defensive effort.
To state the obvious, tanking is not an option this year. There's a decent chance we lose the pick even if we end up with the worst record. The...
This...especially when factoring in Lou and Swaggy who are primarily threats from the perimeter. We don't need a stretch 4 that can't rebound,...
Man this thread is gold :Laugh:
Thanks, quite revealing. I like these quote: Russell --- Specifically, we’ve got a lot of players trying to do the same thing. You’ve just got...
I think he needs at least a couple more off-seasons to really develop his jumper and right hand. I mean it took Lebron like 5 years to starting...
I agree. I give him credit for putting in the work in the offseason. It really shows. But no more than 12 minutes max.
I'd even take Nash as a head coach at this juncture.
Yeah... Towns is really active defensively and he can score from anywhere on the court. What a beast. Him and Anthony Davis are the next...
At the end of last season, I had Black as an integral part of our future core. As I type this, this thread is in the 4th page of the Lakers...
Yes, not to mention Rubio who just had a career night against him. But I'm a bit more patient regarding his defense. At least he seems alert and...
Yeah the offense just sucks as a whole. I feel Kobe is to blame for a large portion of that though. Just my opinion so no need to counter this...
