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

AD focused on defense and rebounding would be a scary sight. He'll get more offensive boards and second-chance points if he isn't worried about creating offense and taking jumpers too, especially with the extra space/disruption that Kyrie's drives could bring.

I just realized how low-key wild it is that Kyrie is one of the most talented offensive players ever in his offensive prime, putting up 27ppg on damn near 50/40/90 the last couple years, and we're still just assuming a 38yo LeBron is the clear first option. Cause Bron has been playing that fukking good.

Yea i actually think if Kyrie were on the team he would take the most shots but Bron still impacts the totality of the game so much more that he’ll always be the first option. The ball will always find him first. Kyrie from time to time can have those invisible 5-13 games….but 80% of the the time he’s a straight supernova on offense

Russell Westbrook is being listed as questionable (packing dresses and skirts to be shipped out of town) for tonight's game.

 

[CantStop]

tonight is a must win for several reasons

1) playoff positioning

2) draft pick

3) pelicans are feggits

Jonas and Larry Nance allow 71% at the rim. Should be a easy 30 for AD and Bron.

Herb Jones is a solid defender though. guys like that give Bron trouble. we need pat bev to lock up mccollum

I still can’t believe Phil Handy would tweet out that shyt. Bron can do it because he everyone knew where he stood on that. But Phil Handy is the assistant coach which means he’s just lost Russ for good.

what did Phil tweet?

He tweeted the same eyeball emoji as Bron but deleted it. But it already got out there and everybody saw…

phil doesn't carry himself like a coach. he's forever going to be an assistant coach. truth be told, he's a skills development coach. he's not even the type of assistant coach to get promoted to be a head coach. he do the same shyt on IG. I don't think that's cool.

Yeah that’s just dumb especially the position he’s in

Just thought about this.

If the Lakers land Kyrie, and go on to win the title, LeBron will have won a ring for Westbrook, something Durant couldn't do

I still think the main reason LeBron pushed for the Westbrook trade is so he could one up Durant and get a ring with his pg.

I can’t imagine how difficult Russ has been for Phil in general. I think things are in motion fr
