Luke says he's focussed on other things besides winning. Trying out big and small lineups, seeing who works well with whom, etc. But you know these guys are dying to break out and rid the stench from the Lakers franchise of the last 3 pre and regular seasons. As well other teams will be doing the same as Luke.
First up tomorrow night the Kings. Woohoo!! Lakers basketball is finally back after the long gap once again from no playoffs through the nail biting of the lottery, draft, free agency and all the hard work on their own time and in camp with Luuke.
I think they are going to be huge for us this year, literally and figuratively. A very nice 4 big men to have to rotate out there as Luke sees various advantages to be had, cover for foul trouble and hopefully nothing worse than minor injuries to anyone as the season wears on.
Mozgov, Zubac, Yi and Black. Black "may" be a sleeper this year, watch Day 3 footage at camp of those guys and a there's a little bit of a Dream Shake from Tarik with a coordinated left handed release. Also see him dropping some Js. They can all use both hands very well. I "expect" Zubac to be a huge sleeper for us. Maybe as we watch the rotations with them and how Luke has them playing ..... a nickname will surface.
