He showed some nice movement in the first game. I don’t see why he couldn’t become a nice wing defender. He has great size and if his movement...
It’s a fair point. We can’t go back and change it… either he’ll play well and see out the year, or be traded/expire. Either way this is the last...
I see things in a similar way. Basketball is a unique team sport where one player can see a huge amount of time on ball both offensively and...
Very well said on every point. - we aren’t small - Myles Turner is injury prone - If Lebron and AD aren’t good enough to win then injury prone...
We definitely lack shooting, that’s fair. But I’m not seeing the imbalances? Westbrook / Schroeder Nunn / Bev / Walker Lebron / Reaves /...
Clearly, there’s a couple of line ups where he could work.
Bev is a 3&D piece that most teams could use. He can guard 1-2 effectively and even jump at some small SFs for extended periods. Schroeder was...
I didn’t anticipate Gabriel playing any meaningful minutes this year. If he is the backup 4 and athletic enough to guard SF/PF that makes more...
The quicker you accept we aren’t a clear cut contender, the happier you’ll be in my opinion. The best case scenario you get pleasantly surprised....
I think Swider gets some minutes as well. Just for his shot alone. Bev, Nunn, Lebron, Swider, AD is defensive enough to work while providing...
Thanks for that, appreciate your comments. About what I expected at this point, hoping those screens free up more space to get into the lanes for...
Watched the 10 min highlights, we looked decent in the first half.
I didn’t watch the game, how did we look offensively and defensively in the first half with our stars playing? Also Lebron 0-7?
That doesn’t make any sense, I didn’t say anything supporting Russ in my response to him…
I don’t think I’m the only one who read it the that way. I can see in the Russ thread that abeer, pika and weezy did as well. So maybe you’re...
I’m not sure how you got that from the article. To me the article is a spin from the lakers on what happened in our off-season: “we tried to get a...
I think it’s been clear for a while that AD is closer to injury prone than an Ironman. So something like this where he has tightness from ramping...
Derozan would experience similar problems to Russ as a mid range operator struggling with spacing. He also wouldn’t have the usage that he would...
Beautiful set. This is one of the reasons I was happy to replace Vogel, we needed a higher quality of offence for this team.
This is a really good point, I think Jones is in the same ilk, and most of the time so is AD. Having 3 starters that show up on both sides of the...
