Hey guys, here is my latest piece at LN: http://www.lakersnation.com/predict...aining-camp-battles/2015/09/15/#disqus_thread Give it a look, it's going to be an interesting training camp!
Plenty to chomp on there. I like the training camp battles and getting to know the players better. I'm really hoping Upshaw can keep it right and make it. In all the highlights I've seen of him there are only glimpses of what he can do. Not sure he has ever been in shape enough to really play hard for extended stretches. That should change.
Although I like Jabari, I might see him as an odd man out and take a chance on Jonathan Holmes for his versatility at 3/4. We have a plethora of guys who can play at SG starting with Jordan Clarkson and Lou Williams. Those two alone will eat up a majority of the minutes. Then Kobe or Swaggy can slide down if needed, hell even D'Angelo could be used to space the floor, he has the size. I like Holmes size and frame, and his ability to space the floor. He could be another 3 and D winger to groom, we have enough scorers.
