Kawhi right now would be a top 5 NBA player if he was healthy and dependable. I mean, the dude is a beast. The problem is once you give him that...
Don't think he's hunting stats. If he was, he'd be taking more shots. If Reaves and Luka were healthy, his shot attempts would probably be around...
All of the hard stuff he has to do outside of basketball and training is taken care of, though. Like, if you have kids, a 9-5, have to take care...
Should just scrap the dunk contest and skills challenge and put in 1v1 games... prize is $2 million for each position, center/PF vs center/PF,...
Don't see anything wrong with going after tanking teams, though. Every year, 10 teams are just tanking or don't care about winning. The league...
The problem isn't LeBron. It's the fact that Luka, Reaves, AND LeBron aren't good defenders. So now you have three players whose highest value...
I feel like he should be getting 6-7 three pt shots per game but teams know he's the only lethal shooter on the Lakers so they just stick onto him...
https://x.com/LALMuse/status/2021293869577425358?s=20 Dirtiest player in the league... not even a debate anymore. This guy is always doing...
That loss was on Reaves and LaRavia... Reaves was a no-show after the first Q. Granted, not his usual 36+ minutes but he rushed too many bad...
I think the Lakers liked what they saw in Bufkin and didn't want other teams signing him. Probably think he'll be serviceable soon.
I don't see Austin leaving. Lakers have done right by him and he has developed good rapport with Luka. It'd be a travesty if he did, though. I...
Yes, I agree. First game with the Lakers and he knows his spots, the plays, and where to create an opening for wide open players. I think being...
Kennard reminds me a lot of JJ Red. Essentially just an elite shooter with bad defense. There isn't a coach in the league who will understand...
Personally, I'd rather the Lakers wait until 2027 free agency where Jokic is a free agent. Why give up valuable picks for Giannis if you have to...
Definitely more utility in Kennard's game. Gabe's defense isn't even good. That lone Boston series in the playoffs where he went crazy for a few...
I always remind myself of this: If he was good defensively, he wouldn't be available for an inferior player and a 2nd rd pick. He'd be getting...
It's actually bizarre how some players are just so good at shooting. Career 45% from three and also had a span of 24 games where he shot 54% from...
https://www.nba.com/stats/teams/traditional?StarterBench=Bench&SeasonType=Regular%20Season&dir=A&sort=PTS Worst team in the league in bench...
The way I see it, it's over for the Lakers to get better defensively. They simply don't have the talent to make drastic differences. You're not...
Why no on Thomas? Bench scoring is atrocious. This gives the Lakers someone who can score. He can't do anything else but with Bron, Reaves, or...
