Bringing the 3pt game to our frontcourt is so big, we tried with AD and utterly failed, and have had literally no one since Markieff and what little Gasol brought. We need the space regardless of who fills our 1 and 2 spots. I wonder if he has improved in the low post any.
We got my guy! Definitely needed his size and shooting, though his numbers there aren’t so great. I feel a lot more confident in our center rotation now between TB, AD and Jones
He offers skills that are outside of D-Jones' abilities and makes our front line more versatile. Like the signings so far.
Love this signing, really optimistic we have both Bryant and Jones. We just need a garbage guy to cover injuries at the back, would be nice to have Howard back as a third string.
Good pickup. He was ballin' for a period in Washington. He and Jones are an interesting mix to pair with AD, while still having Gabriel.
Good call. Was trickier to find than usual. https://lakersball.com/threads/thom...ved-picked-up-by-washington-off-waivers.2753/ If a mod wants to merge/lock and move that on over to LD from the NBA Discussion.
I’ll try to bump and merge this. Edit: Done. Let’s read this from the beginning. IIRC, people were very sad to see him go and then play so well for WAS.
LOL, this is too funny. FO’s response: “Hold my beer — now, we’re going to get rid of Zubac too. We’ll send him to the Clippers for Mike Muscala… who is not going to be re-signed either…” “… but don’t you worry about that. Eventually, after a lot of soul-searching we’re going to sign DeAndre Jordan, so it’s all good.”
omg yeah. that was a rough six months or so from the time lebron signed until we dumped zubac. just a bunch of really bad, unnecessary choices.
