I hear you. Sort of like how I viewed Rui this season. He's too good to just be an expiring. Albeit, Rui is perceived better player, and had a...
I mean he's a solid player for his age and price. But, Lakers are not gonna hold out to keep him. He's an expiring 6 million dollars. Him and...
LaRavia is still young, still has potential to improve. He's already a good wing defender. But he is also trade ballast too.
His game aint pretty, but he's pretty effective on the defensive end. Solid steals and blocks guy over the course of his career (1.6 and 0.6 per...
Example of when duplication is good. He's a good enough ball handler, passer, general IQ guy, and obviously shooter, to kind of fill in for Reaves...
Bronny should get the start tonight. It would be a bad look to recall Nick Smith from Gleague and start him over Bronny.
Yeah he and Wiggins are two of the best value contracts in the league. I imagine they hold on to both of those guys. They probably prefer to trade...
Lakers projected to have about 42 million in cap-room, if Smart opts-out and Ayton opts-in. Need to use that cap-room wisely.
Good choices. I also like Watson, Caruso, Melton, Goodwin, Joe, Aaron Wiggins, AJ Mitchell, DDV, and Dort.
Sign Lonzo Ball. Doesn't replace Luka's scoring. But, replaces some of the ball handling, passing, rebounding, steals, deflections, and IQ. Helps...
Yeah, they do seem like that. Everything from KD to not having a point-guard, to Eason possibly catching Nick Anderson/Ben Simmonsitis, 6-11...
:Deathstare::LLLLLebronsniveling::dwightcrying::Bangbrick4::Mindblown:
Reaves needs to go back to the role he has when Lebron was injured at the beginning the season (11 games). During that time, Reaves averaged 28.3...
Ok so let's say we don't make a draft day trade. Draft a rim protector like Bidenga with #23. It's gonna take probably at least 30 of the 42...
I think I would seriously consider Melton. Long track record of high volume and good percentage 3-point shooting, and STOCKS. This season, his...
Yeah, exactly. I like the rim-protectors in the draft (Mara, Cyril, Bidenga, Krivas, etc.) better than the ones in free agency (Robinson,...
Yeah, not this year. Thybulle at 39% vs Ellis 36%. But career, Ellis is 41% vs Thybulle 35%. With that said, Thybulle has shown good volume the...
Is every time you watch Ellis play against the Lakers? If so, then yeah he has played horrible against us. Just, kind of pedestrian. But we are...
Imo if you give both give theses guys a consistent 20-24 mpg you are good. Last night, Ayton had 22, and Hayes had 20. That's not too bad. Can't...
I mean you are narrowing it down to one very specific player, Caruso? Next year will be his age 33 season. His contract is a little rough. Of...
