I'm wary of letting him go. He had a huge defensive leap and Vogel was comfortable putting him 1v1 defensive assignments with no help against guys...
Hakeem is a bit like AD is I can see him fit into any era of basketball because he can defend bigs while also having quick feet and be a strong...
I think the Finals MVP is actually a pretty fair assessment with this: your team was great and you were the best player in the most important...
I agree about the FInals, he won the Finals MVP for a reason but across the season it really felt that was Magic's team by then. The team was...
In 85, Magic was playing more minutes and had better advanced stats (both PER, Box Score +/-). Hard to say he's wasn't the guy when in both the...
The issue with KAJ's case is that Magic was clearly the best player on the Lakers for at a minimum of 3 of the Laker title teams. I like the...
I have no idea other then SImmons doesn't bring up how diluted the league was back in the 90's when Jordan finally broke thru (I have Jordan as...
I'd probably put in Steph to space the floor for Jordan/Hakeem/Duncan to be honest With Bird and Durant the non-Laker squad one big advantage...
The worry for the Lakers is game is less then 48 hours from game 5. You can see the difference in LeBron with 3 days vs 2 days rest last game....

There wasn't anyone within 5 feet of him. He could've even taken a dribble to get his balance back on that one
Well it took Spo 2 losses before he switched to Denver's half court defense. Seems pretty similar to me. Healthy AD and this game would have...
God damn he was so freaking open. I mean the Heat might have been on the other side of half court. Paxson and Kerr's jumpers in the Finals were...
This guy pisses me off: he falls down on every 3 point shot looking to get a call
Well they lost Dragic and now AD is hurt. Just hate wasting such a good game from James: you could see the 2 days off really helped him. Guess...
That was a b******* call him at the end: he went pretty damn close to straight up. The refs didn't have the guts to respect verticality
I thought he was awful the entire game. Just slow on his rotations and he hit one 3 and otherwise just sucked
He was a shell after that he hurt his heel. Kuddos to him for gutting it out but looked really hobbled at the end of the game
For the love of god can he please stop going small with Morris at center when Bam is in the game. These are just brutal minutes: play Dwight for...
