LOOOOOVE hearing Bradly is impressing so much and not Rondo! Please have Avery at starting PG this year
I have been avoiding LB on purpose the last few weeks because I knew all the "This guy is really impressing everyone" horse s*** would be in abundance. This guy dropped 40 pounds, this guy is the first one in and last one out. All this hyperbolic trash liquid is why listening to Bill Belichick do interviews makes me feel good. I am at the point in my life where when people talk about what they are doing or what they are going to do, only makes me want to kick them in the shine when they arent looking. I am looking forward to Lebron and AD. That's all that matters now. We will see what happens soon enough....
Someone give AB a hug. Almost disappeared to nether world of page 2. https://www.yahoo.com/sports/lakers-coach-praises-avery-bradleys-212256786.html
Love it, hope he plays well enough to start over C-bag Ronda the entire season. Looks like the hard work from the star players has a lot of the team following suit.
The defense was very solid, even picking Curry up full court. I thought he missed a couple easy ones. Not sure if he wasn't settled it or rust or what the deal was. I think we can be really special defensively this year. We have real answers at multiple positions. Based on what I saw against Curry and If he gets the minutes and who knows if he will, there's a lot of mouths to feed in our backcourt, then I think he'll definitely be an elite perimeter defender this year.
I know. Sucks since he's without a doubt the 3rd best pg guard on our team...if you aren't counting Lebron as a point guard. Caruso and Bradley are both better than Rondo. With Caruso, it isn't even close at this point. It would not shock me in the least to see Caruso starting by the end of the season.
I don't think it's a given at all Rondo's going to start once the season begins. LBJ and AD aren't blind to realities of strengths and weaknesses w/ PG competition, so politics there are being overblown IMO. Vogel and the team need to win period and players giving us best chance will be out there. I think. Let's see what happens next against Brooklyn in China.
i still think (hope?) that it's been politics from vogel, letting rondo think he's got a starting shot, then allowing rondo to magnanimously accept a bench role because the whole operation might fall apart when lebron sits or somesuch. then just wait for old age to produce the injury that lets caruso wally pip him.
Vash you can stop worrying about guard play around Lebron and AD. Who can play like guards themselves. Add Kuz. Bradley looks great out there both sides of the ball. Technically and physically. Cook I love. Caruso. Rondo will have some value.
Good game from AB - need more of this and I like his off-ball activity too. Also, if he's hitting 3s like tonight...look the eff out
By far, the best his offense has looked this pre season. Before this, his drives and layups were looking a little Fish-y and his J had been way off. Last night he was money. If he can give us 75% of that, I'm happy.
