I think kd will still get near a max even though he got injured
AD is always hurt though. Hes averaged 66 games a season for his career.
I think butler would respect lebron and not be the cancer he has been on young teams. And yes kawhi is better for sure.
I disagree. Disgruntled stars NEVER get anywhere near their value most of the time. And i def think those 3 can be part of a contending core.
Historically superstars that get traded almost NEVER get anything near their value. Why should the Lakers start changing that trend now? Shaq was...
Who would be PG? SG? You don't think zo/jimmy butler/ingram/lebron/mcgee with kuz/hart off the bench would be better?
Im not saying you don't add more pieces, im just saying the lakers need to play hard ball. The "godfather" offers reeked of desperation to appease...
The guy who has never played over 75 games? The guy who only wants to resign with the lakers or knicks? The guy signed to klutch? Oh course you...
I hear ya, but do you think kevin knox/3rd is THAT much better?
Do you prefer the: please griffin, take our entire team, lakers girls and staff, just please help us make lebron happy approach? Im tired of the...
Massive leverage? Not really. AD is with Kluth, he basically sat out the end of the season and said knicks or Lakers... If he doesn't sign, so be...
Lakers have leverage. No need to deal the entire team. Kuzma,wagner and the 4th. If you dont' like it, kick rocks and enjoy kevin knox
Paul George's 3rd year: 17pts 7reb 4ast 42% FG Jimmy butler's 3rd year: 13pts 5reb 2ast 40% FG Brandon Ingram's 3rd year: 18pts 5reb 3ast 49% FG
Look at the 3rd year stats of Paul george, Giannis, jimmy butler and compare them to BI. That will answer your question.
Just sign butler, some shooters and lets party.
If the Lakers wait 3 weeks, sign a solid FA, they gain a lot of leverage in the AD talks.
Ive been saying the same for weeks. DeAndre and butler along with Zo/Ball/kuz improving will get them deep into the playoffs IMO
The playoffs are more physical and also consist of many more games. I don't see Davis being able to play 82-95 games in a season.
All this for a guy that has never played over 75 games in his career. And his only played 75 games twice.
If you read through threads, a lot of what he said was verified through the media a couple days later. Hes been on point a lot. Great addition to...
