i'm still trying to get over that end game performance 18 hours later. just buried them in his first playoff game ever.
i don't think morant can play differently and be him. his game is about the jaw dropping athleticism and risk taking, first and foremost. but...
again, too hard to compare across eras. luka has looked like a magic/bird hybrid to me. i also think shooting stats can be misleading in both...
memphis beats us in game 2 by shooting 22-29 from three and chuck be like "see...this is why i told you the lakers aren't for real..."
wonder what bryant did there. he seemed well-liked by players and coaches here. maybe we can bring him back on a vet min next year!
i knew morant was going to try to punch one on AD from the get go. that's his thing. i didn't think he'd be successful, though. vando erased...
yeah, every news outlet so far hasn't put that together. they keep assuming our salary structure will be the same in two years as it is now.

yeah, ironically, it's possible the better he plays the less likely someone makes a big offer, because it will be futile. i think someone will...
great way to put it--possessional lebron. when he's not taking possessions off, we're so much better. can he do it for a long run on that foot,...
problem is that to trade them this summer, i think they need to get guaranteed, so we'd have to bring back salary. if i had to wager right now,...
yes. and i know i'm being greedy, but we have to manage the salary slots down the roster, too. if we just pay reaves and russell, but lose rui...
gotta say, if i were a grizz fan, this would be my thought, too. they were definitely overconfident, though.
yeah, i think people misconstrue my anti-three star stance--i'm saying you can't field a bunch of rotating vet mins around three stars. and our...
i'll be shocked. i won't be shocked if we just cut bamba and beasley in order to keep them, but we're keeping them. edit: ok, i can scenarios in...
right?! not sure how the narrative gets to be "the lakers can't trade westbrook for anything ever and they're dead" and then shift to something...
sure. but more importantly, we now have rui, reaves, vando, beasley, etc. instead of okogie, landale, wainwright, etc. if you can afford three...
that was the best i've seen him play on offense, tbh. hit some very tough shots. i thought we gave up the switch too easily on him, and...
i was saying this in the other thread in contrast to phx, but memphis couldn't devote attention to him on top of AD and lebron and had no one to...
they're not mutually exclusive, as someone else said. if our management is choosing between them, we've already lost.
