    Pick n roll with Lebron and AD to end games needs to be the solution. However, the reason why it hasn't worked is the role players have been missing those open shots. Lakers will not win the title if Green, KCP, Caruso and whomever is shooting those open shots, isn't making those. Pure and simple. Lakers HAVE to make those shots and they beat the Clippers. Lakers made Lou Williams a spectator and Paul George was a non factor in the Christmas game, however they missed way too many daggers in that game when they needed it.

    And letting a pipsqueak like Beverly in your head is weak. Lakers should be murdering that clown every chance they get.

    That was last year. But if we keep getting smacked in the face as you mentioned it certainly could start pissing Caruso off, then look the hell out .... it is ON. I've heard from my sources he is open to some enforcing. Loves Artes ..... errr .... World Peace .

    Yeah... I don't get it either. It's a legitimate point. AD does settle, especially in end-of-clock situations, for a jumpshot. Doesn't mean he isn't a monster, just that it's puzzling as to why... Although, I'd say his post footwork is a bit mediocre.

    AD sure loves destroying his old team. Another phenomenal performance.

    Since I know that trade still seems to stimulate discussion:

    Lonzo Ball, Brandon Ingram and Josh Hart:

    50 points, 9 rebounds, 22-50 FG, 5-21 3PT, 1-2 FT

    Anthony Davis:

    46 points, 13 rebounds, 15-21 FG, 3-5 3PT, 13-13 FT

    Just insane.

    You've left about 6 other players out of the trade which include future considerations

    :Noddingyes:

    but your point is still taken. You trade for an AD pretty much any time you get a chance.

    Ingram played like garbage both games and AD played like a man on a mission because the Pelicans fans booed him.

    The kids normally average 48 PPG 18 RPG 11 APG
    AD normally averages 27 PPG 9 RPG 3 APG

    That's not counting who we would have picked at #4

    Well yeah, 3 players combined should obviously average more stats than 1 player. But when that 1 player comes close to matching the output of 3, that's incredible.

    Looking ahead from just the stats, the W-L illustrates the situation that both teams are in.

    yeah, but we have Caruso, and they don't, so is that even a fair comparison?
