Between Laravia, Smart, and Lebron (and hopefully theiro) lakers have good sized wing defenders who are solid or better. Problem is they all play...
Luka is allergic to hockey assist the way he plays. The other issue I see is that he's such a good ballhandler that he'll try to force his way...
Luka is allergic to setting screens - I get it he's been the man everywhere he's played but he's a big body whose very coordinated. Inverted...
He still doesn't look right because the jumper isn't there like last year. I think that's final piece because he can't dunk over guy like Lopez...
Give this dude more.minutes he looks like he could be an elite defensive stopper
This teams definitely is not one of those teams like 96 bulls, or the 16 Warriors (or OKC this year), which want to step on everyone's throats....
This is one of the problem in evaluating him: he isn't a kid. He's 24 so a whopping 4 years older then the player he should be playing like...
Jrue aint getting a buyout - he's got a s***ty a** 2 more years on a big whomping 35-37 million/year salary that was signed before second apron...
totally understand the skeptisim with Jrue but honestly, he's looked pretty good on the eye test and his advanced medtric look good. In no way...
THe 3 point shot which was so good still hasn't come back after that groin injury last year. He needs to be able to hit the wing 3 when Luka...
Robs offseason moves are underrated - LaRavia impacts per game fluctuates and Smart has the injury issues and going "Get Smart" on the Lakers but...
Great stealth tank job - no we're trying to win look we have future HOF WestBrick starting and taking up a bunch of minutes along with former...
Meh teams adjust. And we have a large sample size with him.
what the hell happened in the last 4 minutes? They were up 14 and I stopped paying attention thinking they were finally going to get an easy well...
What other star is tasked with being the POA defender? This stupid starting lineup with Rui is just slow cascade of s*** flowing downhil. Lakers...
I don't get the Gianni's move watching the OKC and Spurs is that they came at with good players 100% of the time. I didn't see anything from Shai...
I think the Spurs were missing Kornet too. That dude is another plus minus all star. Outside of Ayton I was hoping the Lakers would have got him
They didn't have Fox when the Lakers played them. No Lebron for Lakers. Agree that when the Lakers went away from the awkward starting lineup it...
no they didn't want to go into the tax to keep THT and Caruso. The thing is they ended up paying Nunn so the difference was marginal
The worst part was every Laker fan was like this guy is awesome. Does everything you want from player and most of the stuff he adds doesn't show...
