He’s not going to net anyone good in a trade if he keeps playing like that. But yes I agree he’s not being played properly, he’s not a spot up shooter.
No one can get to the rim in the half-court with any combination of Westbrook, Jordan, and Rondo on the court with him. He has the ball a lot but teams will just back right off of him.
as many of us said as soon as the russ trade went down and we signed dj and dwight. our offense was always going to be in trouble.
yeah, it's hard to be out of all physical activity for a week+ and then just play an nba basketball game.
This was a very bad game for him. You could tell after the 4th of 5th miss, he didn’t want to shoot it anymore but his teammates kept passing him the ball.
No, what? You don’t agree with the fact that it was LeGM’s idea to bring in Westbrook, trading away our depth, leaving no money left to fill out a roster, and no money left to sign Caruso? The Lakers aren’t owned by a Billionaire like Ballmer.
Go get a new co-owner then. They should have kept Caruso over THT but everyone love high ceiling guys i guess. When Bron retires, we're back to being a punching bag again. As for the Russ trade, it's 100% LB/AD doing. The Eagle departure might have been a shock for them though...
Hey, I thought it was dumb to not pay Caruso too. The Buss Family did recently get a new pair of investors, if my memory serves me well. Yup: https://www.nba.com/amp/lakers/rele...rity-interest-to-dodgers-owners-walter-boehly
