Ballers Wanna Ball, Rollers Wanna Roll, But We're Taking All--The Official 2017-2018 Lakers Thread

[Guile]

Nance and Randle are stretch guys, they can't handle the 5 fulltime I think. But tight now I would take Bynum on the minimum over Lopez, so it's worth a try.

Also I noticed Lonzo seems to have changed his set point to be a bit more conventional and raised the release point on his shot slightly. I think that might explain his better shooting this month. If the Lakers actually had a shooting coach those changes probably would have happened sooner ( c'mon Magic ).

If Lakers don’t get pg or cousins, I would love to see them sign deandre Jordan, he would be perfect guy next to kuzma starting but I doubt we give him that type of money

Randle is already playing the majority of his minutes at the 5.

He is not going to age well. And for a max he isn’t dynamic enough. If we can’t get PG, Cousins, or LeBron I would rather roll the cap over to 2019.

They're kids. Luke isn't the type to put them in a box either. He's going to let them figure it out. I don't blame him. They're going to fail...a lot. A lineup of 19-25 year olds should fail a lot in the NBA.

No need to put any undue pressure on them. There's no rush to make them super competitive especially with how the West is currently constructed.

Luke is just aiming for consistent improvement and teamwork. They'll still lose games and do stupid shyt while improving.

Last year all these close loses would have been blowout losses. This year the team is fighting and scraping in every game and that’s all you can ask from 20-23 year olds. And I can’t wait till this bum brook is out of here

I wouldn't want him on a 5 year deal, like a 3 year deal max that players did this past offseason. He would be great with a guy like Lonzo, he would also help Kuzma as a starter. There's not many options out there at center and that is our biggest weakness

Well the team kinda needed those L's last year no matter how they came.

Nwaba is better than KCP. I still don't understand why they released him.

I'm feeling Luke's starting lineup and early rotations in this game.

 

[Regular_P]

A few minutes into the second and Randle hasn't gotten on the court yet and they have a 44-26 lead on the Rockets. A PF rotation of Kuzma/Nance would be just fine.
