As others and I have been saying, there's no cheating Father Time. This is only the beginning. He's got too much mileage. No to the Kang.
True, Ingram was a poor shooter pre-ASB last year, but he was still at 45.2 TS%. Lonzo takes it to a new level of bricking at 35.0 TS% which is...
It's been reported that the Lakers were "thrilled" Kuzma fell to #27. They thought he'd go much higher.
Probably more like Nance/Hart/Randle because they thought Kuzma wouldn't fall to #27.
I think at the very least we need to value that pick as a Nance/Clarkson level player. That's how good our scouting department is. Lopez +...
Lonzo takes 12 FGA per game whereas Hart takes 2.5 FGA per game. Yes, it's a team issue, but Lonzo contributes 5 times more to the issue than...
Only player that showed up the last 2 games.
Yeah, this is where I'm at the past few games. I don't think anyone here is suggesting he's a bust. I agree that he'll be fine. The fact of the...
Well said. I consider Julius as an integral part of our core. He's been our best player consistently. He has the physicality and alpha mentality...
WTF is going on between Luke and Julius?
Trade Julius now and get used to 20 point blowouts. His physicality and rebounding is underappreciated.
Salary wise, 15 million is nothing for us. For the next 3-4 years, our pay roll would be $30-$35 million combined for our 4 best players in Lonzo,...
@therealdeal Turiaf and Nance are what I call energy bigs. Julius is much more than an energy big. His performance thus far (even in limited...
In regards to risk management, signing Randle to a big contract isn't the worst thing that can happen. It's this:
The issue I have with the "trade Randle at the deadline" argument is that it fails to provide a scenario where we strike out on the 2018 FA's....
To be honest, he reminds me of young Deng.
Well said @LTLakerFan I don't miss Dlo but I miss trodgers. Sucks we lost both with that trade.
What I like most about this kid is that he compliments everyone. You could plug him in with the starters or in the bench. Doesn't miss a beat.
Honestly I'm happy with our current team. Young and exciting with great chemistry. I'd be perfectly happy replacing KCP with George. Hopefully...
Yeah Simmons is a beast. But in fairness, Simmons had an extra year to prepare. And they're different players. Simmons is ball-dominant.
