I was under the impression that Johnson had that work ethic, and that's why I had him at #3 prior to the recent reports. I can't stand players...
Yeah you're right. It's especially difficult evaluating intangibles like effort/hustle when we haven't seen most of their games. I guess the bigs...
Thanks, the last play shows a clear lack of effort. I'm not sure about the other plays though. Seems to be nitpicking mistakes that can happen...
Hmm... but has anyone seen evidence of Johnson actually taking plays off or slacking during a game?
Wow, and that is an evaluation of the entire season. If it were an assessment of 'who is the best rookie today' Clarkson would be 2nd - 4th on...
You know what they say though @therealdeal one’s true colors are revealed in tough times
I was always high on Johnson, but the recent reports claiming his tendency to lose focus/effort concerns me. I'm starting to wonder if Winslow is...
I like your detective work but tying 1. and 2. together is a bit of a stretch :D Getting a good SF (ie Middleton) and playing Randle in his...
@scnottaken --- good point about the bench scoring, but he's an one-dimensional and streaky scorer. He doesn't get anyone else involved, so he's...
That's kinda my point though. Odom was a borderline tweener that found his niche with the Lakers. (And I think our best lineup was when Odom...
Enough evidence to determine Hill and Young are trade pieces this summer. www.youtube.com/watch?v=DlX1ommrkYY
^ bummer if he sits. Would have liked to hear your thoughts of seeing him play in person.
Definitely on board with this myself.
He needs to gtfo. Too much negative vibe surrounding this clown. Complete opposite of the Lakers culture Byron (and Worthy for that matter) is...
Always liked Paul George.
Quite frankly, I don't think Byron likes Swaggy. You never can get a grasp of how serious or committed the kid is.
I have confidence in our FO that they aren't that stupid. We've never made a mistake of that magnitude before.
Yeah, Lin has his priorities; role and playing time. He's been quite vocal about that, even prior to coming here. I'd like for him to come back...
I like Winslow for that reason too, but Johnson's perimeter defense is intriguing as well. Those two are a toss-up. I'm talking 2016 and...
Pretty much. But if we break our team down by ability (not position) our most pressing need on the offensive end is perimeter shooting. It's...
