just make the draft lottery percentages the same for all teams that didn't make the playoffs, and no one will have much incentive to tank anymore.
Shooting efficiency is one of the most underrated stats in the NBA. This dude is one of the most inefficient players in the League, like worse...
seems like we're trying hard to be whiter than Boston.
Klay is probably the greatest 3&D guy of the last 20 years. Would be a nice arc to finish his career for his boyhood team. But same with DeRozan....
The dude is shooting almost 50% from 3 for the season, genuinely curious to see if the Lakers curse will strike here.
I like Kennard, he's probably the best shooter in the league, bar Steph, but this was a waste of a 2nd given that we're in no shape to compete anyway.
at least we wouldn't suck at 3pt shooting anymore with Klay/Kennard
We're going nowhere atm; this roster is worse than last year's post-trade deadline. We need a DFS-type trade at least to give us a puncher's...
I feel like if we're ever going to make the Reaves/Luka backcourt work we need a defensive mainstay like AD was for us at times. JJJ could have...
sucks about JJJ, would have loved to see him as a Laker
I dont agree with this because Reaves is on a modest salary, so the fact that we're relying on him can't be seen in the same light as another team...
We shouldn't have to rely on Austin Reaves to beat any better-than-average team. The fact that this is where we are at speaks volumes about how...
Playoff basketball is fundamentally different. Offense-first teams like us tend to look better in reg season because the defensive effort in...
If we get a first with this Rui deal, I like it. Hunter is a very good 3&D guy, having a down year, and is more skilled offensively than Rui....
I dont see how Giannis will fit with Draymond either.
we're going to miss Rui's shooting if he leaves. He has become an elite shooter.
The center rotation is fine, and Ayton has more upside than Claxton. Dont like this, unless we're really not planning to re-sign Ayton.
much better fit for us due to JJJ's defense. I love Reaves, but I keep going back to the fact it's really difficult (not impossible but difficult)...
I'd do that trade straight up.
we really traded AD at the peak, nothing but injuries since then, and certainly not going to get any better as he ages. still can't believe we...
