    Aside from that so far I haven't minded seeing McGee and Bres doing the shows together at times. Couple of friendly good looking guys that discuss Lakers topics not badly ... well enough I feel, and as well my Spidey "jerk" senses haven't twitched at anything so far.... as per his rep here. Then again I wasn't aware of anything negative with him before and so far on the show I'm sure I haven't seen all his sequences. And I never hated Dave Miller. :p





    Now the just returned home with much fanfare Los Angeles Rams play by play guy ..... OMG

    Do not like.

    Sure he gives us a unique skill set no other of our big men has but he is two steps behind every play I feel like.

    Why does your contract have to be so awesome?

    Hopefully Luke's seen enough, he's absolutely useless even against a scrub bench.

    He's not good. It's basically what everyone expected. Hopefully his unique and helpful contract is not enough to earn him a spot on the roster he doesn't deserve.

    I'd much rather have Robinson on the team. Obviously Black and Zubac should be getting all minutes at backup Center.

    I support the decision of keeping Nick on the roster in this system and under Luke's guidance. But this is a great gif

    I never understood this signing to begin with... Yi's showings in the spate of regular season games so far has been underwhelming. His shot is slow much like his defense.

    He was signed for marketing purposes in China, and he's our enforcer for the young guys.

    Even if he sticks around for his contract, he's not an NBA player. I hope he doesn't see the floor at all.

    That "shooting ability" is meaningless when he's not all by himself on a practice court.

    What Yi does on the court isnt a skill....any joe shmo off the streets can brick wide open shots and get punked on the blocks. This stretch 4/5 opt that he provides wouldn't do u much good offensively, teams will probably prefer to see Yi out there bricking shots so they'll just continue putting more defensive pressures on the ones who can hit shots.....imo his contract isnt gona do much in a trade and i doubt anyone would trade for yi the player, i mean shoot i wouldnt even trade nick young for him if Yi was on another team
