Cooked Kings, bytchmade bigs, and shytty snitches: Your 2022-23 GOAT franchise Boss Angeles Lakers season thread

[ALonelyDad]

Ham is a rookie coach so I won't go too hard on him. He has done more good than bad. At the end of the day, this isn't a good roster, Ham has done enough of a job where people are actually frustrated when losing to just not caring because its hopeless. I hope he can get a decent roster, it is 1 to 2 good players away.

0-3 since Russ told nikkas to just have fun regardless of wins and losses

 

[Hersh]

crazy that the Lakers always seem to be in it...

u think teams playing down or Lakers overachieving? or a little of both

 

[Professor Emeritus]

Bron went 35-10-8 on 15-23 shooting and was +19 in 35 minutes against a top-5 defense.

And they still lost.


Holy fukk. Someone needs to teach Bron how to play winning basketball cause he's clearly not doing enough.

Mo Bamba is officially trade eligible. Orlando has him buried in their rotation. Can't imagine it would take much to trade for him.

He's a good defender and he can hit the three.

 

[Professor Emeritus]

btw, imagine talking about Bron's potential when he came into the league in 2003, and someone told you he was gonna still be putting up mid-30s triple-doubles on a nightly basis 20 years later.

Nah, the second Lakers ask for him in a trade, Mosley is going to realize Mo Bamba is a real person and start playing him.

He got one minute tonight and Orlando was facing the best center in the league. If he wasn't playing against Denver, nothing is gonna get him minutes besides injuries. I wouldn't doubt they'd ask for something ridiculous like an unprotected first for him from the Lakers though.

 

[Regular_P]

Since Detroit has Bogdanovic locked up for two more years after this one on a reasonable deal, they're probably gonna drive a really hard bargain. If they threw in Burks too, I'd probably fold and give them an unprotected first.

Two starting caliber players, both shooting over 40% from three and both under contract through next season (Boggie through 2025; Burks is a team option for next season).

I was in favor of Mo Bamba but he plays uninspired too much like he does not want to be there.


Would he really be a big enough step up from Wenyen at the 5?

20 million for a dude turning 34 this season is a slight overpay in my opinion.

Another apology coming tomorrow

Imma be honest breh. I think if AD was healthy and dominating like he's supposed to (Giannis, Jokic, Embiid)

We'd actually feel this is a pretty good roster

Obviously need another move. However, no AD completely fukks this team.

 

[rightfultoefinger]

Lakers need to make a move. If they don’t, we know for sure they are just avoiding the repeaters tax. You can see without AD, they’ve been competitive in all the games. Honestly need a shooter to free up the lane even though we’ve been feasting in the paint as is. Just makes it so much harder without a shooter.

 

[jaydawg08]

The fact we're playing these games close without Reaves, Lonnie, and AD says a lot.

We still need another move to get a solid wing here but honestly this all comes down to AD being "Mr Glass". This is his team and he's continually a no show
