It’s connected to his foot and tibia/fibula. It probably has less hair on it than the area immediately above it. It also protrudes slightly on either side due to its shape, which would best be described as “somewhat pointy”. Always glad to help.
If it meant us getting a better defensive wing or a guard who can dribble and create, would you move Kuzma? Any realistic moves?
Thin on bigs? So what’s Lebron, AD, McGee and Dwight. Dudley is good rotation guy in regular season too So what are we on quality playmaking guards?
Better off with guards than number of bigs depth. @vasashi17 has made a lot of posts on this. Course he worries about guards too but he worries about everything due to health. But managing regular season wear and tear off LeBron and AD to keep fresh for playoffs is paramount. The wing defender added in Iggy plus his offense is our optimal last aquisition with Boogie's likely suspended roster spot available. Mass prayer for him in Lakersland. And I feel a lot better about our guards than you do.
We have defensive wings. Green and Bradley. Lebron will likely be playing at the three a lot as well. Our endgame lineup will likely have Kuzma at the 4 with Lebron and Green on the wings and either Bradley or Rondo (DISCLAIMER: I am not condoning Rondo as our endgame point guard. I am merely suggesting what I think will end up happening) at the point. Our roster is decently balanced at the moment. I agree with @vasashi17 that we would have been better served giving a contract to another 4/5 (ex. Faried) rather than another guard (dump KCP), but other than that, the roster is pretty well balanced.
^^^Everybody has got their own priority. Mine is getting into May no matter what our seeding is, with a near healthy roster... especially our star duo. I'm hoping 'Do, Caruso and Cook can become our playmakers to help Bron with that load. I still think you can't rely on just Dwight and McGee for the 5 spot. If defense is the name of the game, both McGee and Dwight offer glamour defensive stats (ie sportscenter blockshots) but when you get past the glitz, they are both poor in advanced defensive metrics. Maybe that changes this year with Vogel running the ship. I think Dudz and Daniels were a waste of roster space. Now we can even cut Boog if s*** gets really wild pertaining to his case. Cut Daniels, Dudz and Boog in that order... 1) Noah or any defensive short burst big. Noah's advanced defensive stats ain't anything to sneeze at. The only reason I feel Dwight got the gig over him is cause he's capable of playing big minutes (30mpg). If free agent to be AD is the priority, you meet his demands and then some period. He does not want to play the 5, so make sure he doesn't. 2) Iggy or Melo get a spot as wings that can be Bron backups in the forward rotation capable of playing 30mins per...fyi Melo was better ranked defensively in his last full season in Okc (2017/18) than McGee, Dwight, Kcp, Kuz, Rondo, BI, Jules and Bron. 3) A playmaker/iso guy like Melo above or anybody that surprisingly hits the buyout market or call up Stockton's kid from South Bay.
I watched Stockton's G-league highlights and was super unimpressed. Short pale skinned non buff midget at 5'11" who is 28 years old. Must be a defensive stud. Caruso >>>>>> Kid Stockton and Cook came off the bench 2 years and in playoffs for the freaking Warriors. Rondo needing to play smart with this roster or not play and Bradley I'm sure can dribble the effing ball and get it to one of our numerous scoring or P&R options. Kuz can handle and create some as well, so can AD. What am I missing on Stockton .... no offense to HOF Pops?
By wing I mean a forward or big guard, not a 6'2 guard. And lets see about avery before we even penicil him in, has been bad for a couple of years now. And if we go Avery, Green, Kuzma, Bron, AD then I am worried about playmaking. Who else can create plays off the dribble and make stuff happen for others?
AD himself and Kuzma can both handle the ball to get inside and finish or make a pass to the open man. As can I expect Bradley to as well find one of the other guys if the other 4 without the ball are not standing and watching. Or Caruso in place of Bradley with his shooting and D and PG skills further honed in this offense over the season. 4 other guys who are scoring threats PLUS Bron will have the ball in his hands most of those crunch times as he has always liked it. All about our luck with health this year.
Argentina with 40 years old Scola beat Serbia with MVP -candidate Jokic and Boban who fouled out like in 5 minutes,Antetokounmpo and Greecel lost to czech and it would not surprise me ,if USA will lose to France Yes , FIBA is completely different
I feel like people need to care more about this. Like I’m Laker fan and people have their NBA team they root for and hate, but I also care about the national team and have pride for the country. Even though there were 4 C Bags on the team, I was rooting for them and it sucks they lost.
You don't care that is fine,it is your personal opinion. I don't care about baseball ,but I don't comment on Dodgers games
But it's NOT like the best American team lost, it's like the C Bags who were holding down the fort, couldn't get the job done. Another reason to hate the C Bags!
