And this is where i am with Austin around 33mil. And i wish the talks of 2nd option would die. I like him on the team but the role not so much....
So Spurs were talented and A player who IMO was better than Austin was not a Max player and also played off the bench.
Reaves/Luka fit is not awkward Austin/Luka/Lebron kind of. Splitting up those 3 to stagger them helps. Ayton Rui are just two players that felt...
"Gregg Popovich started Bruce Bowen over Manu Ginobili to establish elite defensive continuity in the starting lineup and to stagger Ginobili’s...
To me it did not seems like OKC got pushed. They seem to toyed with Lakers and just hit the peddle when needed . If Luka and A ustin played then...

Another thing this team struggled with other than one month. "Following a recent playoff loss to the Oklahoma City Thunder (May 2026), Rui...
If lakers bring back all 3 of LeBron/Austin/Luka as starters they won't win a championship. This trio doesn't offer enough athleticism, defense...
We fail Davis knowing he was injury prone. The model of him having bigs won a championship. With Luka we have to see ways not to make the same...
Luka struggles with Health. Lebron the oldest player in the league was the most athletic in the starting unit and the second oldest often injured...
This is where team building comes into play and not being attached to a player because they are good. Sticking with Austin just because he is good...
I wanted off Van contract and using Dalton since last season.
He is not wrong this is true. The problem is it's a little too late. Lebron is about to turn 42 at the end of the year. This is the only reason...
