Players by position and with my Offensive Efficiency Ratings:
Ruseell 75 Huertas 90
Clarkson 71 Lou Williams 76 J. Brown 56
Kobe 80 Young 59 A. Brown 46 Peace 43
Randle 83 Bass 79 Nance 75 Kelly 61 Holmes 75
Hibbert 84 Black 79 Sacre 62
I don't understand Holmes's status. It sounds like he can be waived and not count against the roster even if LA has to continue paying his salary because of the injury.
I take it Holmes will be gone. I'd drop Peace, too. Thoughts?
Latest piece I wrote, couldn't copy and paste it from my phone so if someone could assist with that I'd appreciate it, hopefully the videos will transfer properly.
I know it's early, but I want to see who calls this one...
Who will be these new look Lakers franchise player? Who will take this team on their back and lead them to a title? if you had to pick only one young player, who would it be?
I know with the early Pre-Season play it's easy to say Randle, but Clarkson is looking reeeeaallly good out there too. I honestly can't decide between the two.
Clarkson's just a second year player and he's pretty good at everything while Randle still has a few holes in his game, like knocking down that open jumper defenses give him. At the same time, Randle looks to be a dominating player out there. He's right, so far, no one can guard him. But Clarkson's a better defender right now IMO, and he's only going to get better. Clarkson's also more of a vocal leader out there from what I've seen.
Russell's a little too young and raw out there for us to really know what we have in him, but as he develops, who knows...
