This is what sucks for them though. There is literally nothing they COULD do. For the next 3 seasons you have two regressing players (who even in their prime put up empty stats) making up 2/3's of your cap. And for the next 2 seasons you have a middle of the road pg taking up another 18 million. There is not one attractive asset on that roster. And to make matters worse, the 3 above mentioned players are just good enough to win too many games to get a franchise altering pick. The front office is basically handcuffed for at least 3 seasons.
Griffin will be what he is. Drummond never took that next step despite bein such a huge talent. Reggie Jackson just isnt good enough to be their lead guard and 3rd highest paid player. They will continue to be Eastern Conference average until they can do something with Griffin and Jackson.
It seems like most teams see Lonzo as the symbol of ineptitude in the NBA. They measure how much their team sucks by how well Lonzo plays lol.
this is what coaches as gms get you. i find it strange that over time, griffin has managed to improve in a lot of important ways, but his impact on winning games remains pretty minimal. drummond's also an interesting case in that he shows flashes of being one of the league's best centers, but doesn't sustain interest/energy. his physique concerns me, too. wonder if those things are related. jackson's their biggest problem, though. a market like detroit can't pay him to do what he does, imo. i mean, he's overpaid anywhere, but some places could get away with using him as an effective bench scorer at that price (sort of like schroeder in okc). they can't because he's essentially taking up a starter's slot.
Thank God for the Chicago Bulls and Kareem’s calling the win. Maybe you thought he was the REAL Shaq. Hope their a good team in your dreams. Lakers girl were the true winners tonight, if you wanted to see something pretty. Yes it’s like that song you can’t get out of your head. What was really sad, is they could even use being drunk as an excuse. They just sucked. Alex, I’ll take Lakers for 500. That and Luke gave him $100 underneath the table. Why are you hating on him? He’s outperforming everyone on your team. My aunt could be my uncle, if she....well you know the story. Good think we outlasted you. Your whole goal was to scr*w the Laker fans out of tacos. Act like this is your playoff thread. You didn’t. What kind of excused did you have to begin with...you’ve won 10 games. Your coach must have seen our playbook, while Luke was trying to pay him off.
Just proves you love me. Anyone else around here just disappears or cuts back you couldn't care less. Me you start trying to pull back in. It's all good though thanks .... was just thinking of you this morning too and something I gotta do ..... :Joshharthearthands:
.... which also is read Cookie!!! Good work Cook .... you can have Brandon's heart. "Lonzo is such a smug classless POS. Can’t stand him. He will get hyped up for the sh*ttiest of performances." Funny I see a guy who acts like he's been there before. #notjokingmeanit
weird to describe lonzo as smug and/or classless. i haven't seen either. i'd like to direct this person's attention to jamal murray.
"Well both teams were atrocious for 3 quarters. Then the Lakers we’re merely bad in the fourth, while we stayed atrocious." This quote is all too real. Sent from my VS995 using Tapatalk
