Jarred Vanderbilt Discussion: The Vandalorian

That thing must of been really messed up, on the replays it just went the wrong way.

 

OUCH!!!! …. I doubt even Kobe just yanks that kind of dislocation into place and goes back out there. It was severe enough to have broken through the skin.

You can see it here if you want to zoom

No wonder the OKC bench ran away

 

sweet mother of mercy that had to hurt.

when i saw him (and some of the folks coming over), i knew it was bad. vando's not a wuss. ouch.

 

So Vando is questionable for tonight's game

 

I’d rather Vando be out so we can see more Adou minutes. I think he had one questionable defensive rotation last game, but otherwise his athleticism popped and he wasn’t a negative. Let’s get the kid some playoff experience in a series we have almost no chance to win anyway.

 

Here here … I second the motion. Do we have a third? Who’s got JJ in their phone contacts for that LB piece of wisdom?



Vando has enough problems on offense with his hands healthy, let alone with a mangled pinky. On the other “hand” Adou has 2 GIANT suckers to do battle with.

 

He’s available. The Athletic just popped an update.

CHANGE NEEDED! Lakers MUST FIND ROTATION SPOT or TRADE for Jarred Vanderbilt!

Vando looking for a team who wants him

 

I still want to keep him. The guy is an elite defender, good rebounder, he does a lot of things well. We just don't use him the right way on offense. Instead of putting in the least successful spot possible for him, keep him moving, screening, back door slashing, quick passes. With a confidence boost of being successful in other areas his shooting will improve to some degree, even a few percentage points is significant. In some areas he is exactly what we need.

 

I’ve long thought the 5th starter is right in front of us but JJ doesn’t see it.
