    Maybe they want THT to play behind Westbrook?

    Are we angling a s&t for derozen using a TPE? Maybe two trades in one and we toss THT for a SA pick to make it worth it for them? Preserve the MLE? I'm confused.

    maybe. i see his future as a sf, though, despite the assist numbers. would be great if he could credibly man the backup pg, particularly on defense.

    It's c
    So..We get Russ one of the most dynamic players in the NBA, and a bunch of shooters to pair with him, Lebron and AD, two of the very best players in the League. Yet we are going to complain about missing Caruso, Kcp and Kuzma, because their defense was soo great? Man get out of here with that foolishness! SMH

    Some of you crack me up. Lakers get a 3rd star, still in his prime and you are worried about the "1" defense that got shredded by a 65 year old looking Ayton in the first round.

    He’s an UFA at 23 years old ….. can’t have come for the minimum??

    Edit …. I see he did. How does a 23 year old with some game find himself in that situation? Honest question not familiar with him.

    Ehhh. I've seen Monk play up close a few times. I don't mind taking a shot at him with a minimum contract.

    we won a title (which apparently doesn't exist) with the former group.

    our team defense was great. AC and kcp (and even kuz) were definitely part of that. vogel's got his work cut out for him, as will AD trying to cover people's a**** everywhere.

    and no, offense really has yet to beat defense. even the vaunted gs teams that everyone points to as the tipping point for "offense over all" were among the league's very best defenses every year.

    being among the league's best defenses is really important.

    Monk was shot 58% from corner threes last season.

    Lebron James and Anthony Davis were reason 1 2 and 3 we won a championship . Those two are still here. Vogel's job is to manage the roster he's given, if he cant figure this one out, he doesn't deserve to be here.
