Good point regarding Ham. That's why I feel Rui and Dlo have the edge to start. But if Max earns a starting role over one of those two, Ham...
I hear you. One could argue that Max would be the cleaner fit at the 3, because he is a better defender and a more reliable jumper. But unproven....
Next season, his usage, volume, and assists will all go up. I see him topping out at 23 ppg and 8 assists. Probably 7/14 fgs, 3/7 3 pt fgs, 6/7...
This dude could be the starting 2 or 3 as soon as this season. His skills are too complementary to star players to just have him come off the...
Yeah, but I think he probably would slide back to the four when Lebron retires, especially after Rui starts to age in his own right. It is highly...
It makes a ton of sense for Rui to slim down since his body was previously better suited to play power forward. Although Rui has the ability to...
Caston looks like he is going to be a good NBA player. My comparison for him is Domontis Sabonis.
In theory, Wood's defensive issues could be masked if he is in there with defensive players, such as AD, Vanderbilt, and Max. Problem is, Lakers...
Why not just start Christie at small forward? I know we just got a bunch of big wings, but Max might be the best 3 and D of them all, and it would...
But Harrell couldn't shoot though.
Is Hachimura going to start?
Kind of an over-correction.
Lakers perhaps see Vincent more as "making a splash" then boring Carter or Milton signings, since Vincent came up clutch in the playoffs. Maybe...
Milton is bigger and a much better shooter than Vincent, and he went for 5 mil.
Im not stoked about Vincent. Could of offered that to Carter, who is better.
Probably starts at around 10 million and change, with raises. 32-35 million left to use on Hachimura / Russell.
Still have Curry and Richardson available.
Lakers basically have around 42 million to split between Russell, Hachimura, and free agents with the all or part of the MLE.
Gordon is not that bad. He could play in the second unit next to JHS, or start alongside Reaves or Russell in the back court, if we happen to go...
If we are paying Russell 20 million and Hachimura 15 million respectively, then 7 million or so is that max we could offer as part of the MLE.
