Your first three words were huge that prompted my response. He was great all year for us until late 1st injury and then following that in the playoffs until hurt again.
Considering the Lakers with Dwight were the last team to br able.to beat the Nuggets with both a healthy Jokic and Murray, I think this underrates Dwight impact. The Bubble Lakers were top notch title team and Dwight allowed that team to match up big easily.
I wasn’t joking, never liked Malone/ Stockton . Malone is a terrible human being and his karma cost Kobe his 6th. Karl Malone has openly said he hates the Lakers
All that is not the same topic as talking simply about basketball that was played by free agents who came to the Lakers. Kobe had “3” rings at the time. Karl played GREAT all season and in the Western Conference 3 rounds. Those were facts and all I was addressing. This particular comment remains nonsense no matter what motivated it.
I totally understand your point that Malone is a great basketball player and really helped us get there. And I respect that, but to me the front name on the jersey is bigger than the one on the back . I also disliked Glen Rice signing. But then again shaq played for Boston and Rondo won a ring in LA. Business is business lol… I have this mentality that WE are the LAKERS! They listen to us, we don’t listen to them .
LOL looks happy …. like he’s thinking of his agent telling him to turn down the 18M per year contract offer from Dallas.
Christian Wood is going to be shockingly good for the Lakers and it will be another Reaves type of how did the Lakers of all teams pick him up https://x.com/LAbound2/status/1708885248602206374?s=20 https://x.com/LAbound2/status/1708566618014458189?s=20
Christian and AD should be able to see time together on the floor a lot over the RS .... just NOT when the opposing center is TOO much of a physical strength and weight mismatch for Wood or Hayes. Some teams. Some bench matchups. So there's all those minutes saved from AD at the 5.
