Laker brehs what is the reason why AD doesn’t want to play center? Is it because he believes he will be healthier playing the 4?

Because at this point I don’t think it matters which position he plays he is either healthy or hurt so do what’s best for the team.

I caught @10bandz in a lie.

I was able to call out the lie with exact receipts.

And he doesn't have a single word to defend himself in response, because he knows that everything I said was true.




Notice how he deflects with a new accusation once his previous lie got exposed....but he still has zero receipts. I don't have a "gimmick". I've been the exact same poster all 8 years I've been on this board, and I've already proven that with receipts when the lie was made before. I've always been pro-Black, I've always pushed hard on the same issues, I've always posted in HL, I've always called out the Democrats while saying the Republicans were far worse. I can bring receipts of me pushing for reparations and connecting people to literature on the issue in my FIRST MONTH on this forum. I can bring receipts of me posting nuanced political posts attacking Clinton and the Dems for not being pro-Black enough in my first year here. I changed my name cause some people didn't like it, but I never changed my posting style. He just uses the name change to make up lies about me when he gets caught in his.

I dare him to show ONE issue in my 8 years on this forum that I posted about differently before/after the name change. Post a single thing that I started posting about after the name change that I wasn't already posting about before the name change. I don't have to worry about being consistent because I've always been myself, every single thing I've ever said on this forum is what I believe and every single word I've ever said about myself is true, so my consistency is natural. I was able to find dozens of contradictions in @Jcotton1's posting after he was here just 6 months, but even after over 5 years of stalking me, @10bandz can't find a single contradiction in mine. That's why has to make up shyt.


You don’t even have a black wife talking all this pro black shyt :laff:I don’t have all day like you to go research and post a hundred quotes. Ive posted receipts on you plenty of times and u always resort to claiming u got me on ignore which you been caught lying about several times

You have just as many contradictions as Jcotton1 and that’s that. Keep typing up essays and getting daps from fake black posters with white boy frat usernames.

As The Dankster you were just a Bron stanning fakkit, then when Trump came along Rhakim showed up doing a full fledged MSNBC rhetoric dap fishing in HL to get POTY.

At the end of the day I’m a Lakers fan and you’re a “Blazers fan” who never talks about the Blazers because riding Brons dikk is your #1 priority.

Mr Inglewood Blazers fan who hates the Lakers but roots for them because of Bron and claims
MAGA to anyone who calls it out. You’re a lame and a fraud and imma keep exposing you.

Incredible to type paragraphs of "exposal" without a single receipt. He now has over a thousand comments quoting me or @ing me, and he claims that it's his mission to expose me and he'll keep doing it forever, but doesn't have the time to find a single quote to prove his "exposal"?

I already proved that his exact claims from today were lies and linked the exact posts where he made the previous lies. And he had nothing to respond so he had to deflect. Again.



It's easy as fukk to disprove this lie that I used to post only Bron and changed up my posting style later. I've already disproved that lie before:

Got receipts starting from barely a month into posting on the site even though I had only put up a few posts at that point.

















India About to Give Nigeria and Venezuela that Stimulus Package










Black Philosophers?









I got those receipts starting from the beginning, you ain't ever posted shyt like that in your life, don't lie on me and claimed I switched shyt up when I ALWAYS been that.

How is it that I can easily link 30+ threads showing that I've always posted this exact same pro-Black content, going all the way back to my first month on the board, but he claims I was just a Bron poster before and didn't post all this stuff when I first came on? He can't show a SINGLE topic that I post on now where I didn't already post on it before, or a SINGLE issue that I'm pro-Black on now that I wasn't already pro-Black on before. But I can post dozens of comments where he's stalking me from one forum to another, explicitly trying to derail anti-racist threads, and gets caught in outright lies about me that he can't defend.

Plus @10bandz claims I posted a certain way before Trump came along, but @10bandz wasn't even on this site before Trump came along. His join date is over a month after Trump declared his candidacy, and my join date is only a few months before that. So what kind of bullshyt is he even trying to spew?

Anyways, T Ross getting bought out. I’d take him over Lonnie Walker. But he wants to play for a contender and we’re the furthest thing from it

I like the idea. Might get Brown's minutes more than Walker cause Beasley already is gonna have a shot at Walker's minutes.

D-Lo / Schroeder / Reaves / Beasley

You figure those gotta be who the Lakers are planning to be the top 4 guards at this point, unless Beasley doesn't get his shot back or gets exposed on defense. And you're gonna want all four to get a lot of minutes so they're comfortable playing together, there isn't enough time left in the season to be trying out 6 guys in the backcourt at 15 mpg each.

The big question is how much time LeBron is going to play the 4, which gives more room for someone like Ross to play the 3, and how much time LeBron is going to be in that 3 spot so that Vanderbilt or Bamba get their run in the frontcourt alongside AD.


p.s. - I just realized I made that entire post while completely forgetting that Rui Hachimura even exists.


I said at the time that I didn't like the trade and it's only getting worse. What the hell is his role now? Lakers picked up multiple more shot creators and Rui doesn't do anything else well. Plus he was supposedly there in order to defend wings, but he continues to suck at it and now they have Vanderbilt to do that plus Bamba to increase frontcourt depth. He scores inefficiently, shooting poorly from outside, has tunnel vision, isn't a good defender....so what's he there to do?

They're gonna feel forced to play him cause they "made an investment" and it's only going to backfire.

I mean, Rui was always to me a move made for the future. He's extremely raw but there's something there. He can actually iso pretty well. His issues are his heavy feet and broken 3 pt shot. I never saw that move as a move for the present and what did it cost? a few second round picks? He looks a lot better when he has Lebron or a PG setting him up. He actually benefitted greatly from having Russ. I said last game that a lot of guys are going to suffer without Russ and he's one of them. A lot of the moves made were for the future which is why they went younger. It's almost like they're anticipating Bron or AD leaving and then stock piling on more young talent or picks. Anyways My rotation would be:

DLO/Dennis
Reaves/Beasley
Rui/Troy Brown
Bron/Vanderbilt
AD/Wenyen

Bamba for now is a DNP and so is Lonnie.

He's got a high upside. He's a piece for the future. Plus when he was traded they weren't guaranteed to get the Minnesota and Orlando deals done. More depth is never a bad thing. At that forward spot they were barren before outside of Lebron but now they have more options so Bron can slide to the 1 spot more easily if they decide to do a lineup favoring size as well.

It's not going always to go like this... They will want mo in the line up...

They will want him specifically for teams like suns...or OKC .. big teams...


LBJ, Beasley/dlo, Vanderbilt, AD, MO

Unless Vanderbilt is really that good defensively he erases the size difference. His stranding reach is not elite

Interested in seeing guys not crowd the paint anymore against the Lakers.

Can't the Lakers get a 10 game win streak like everyone else? :yeshrug:
Even if the new guys do their job well, it will take at least 10+ games to build some chemistry for that to happen.

I just can't see them making the playoffs or even play in with their current record.

Ham is a problem too…how is Pelinka gon handle that?

Yea I used to post in these threads heavily but once the Bron stans came and start using klutch narratives to disparage the team and front office I knew I was good on this

Breh no one thinks that you not posting in the thread is a loss. :dead:
My presence is much more welcomed than yours is, literally nobody respects or cares about your opinion on this team. Every post you make is centered around making lebron look better. You're worse than a groupie. Atleast groupies might get to actually fukk with their targets, you on the other hand is just pathetic. Bron wouldn't piss on you if you were on fire.

i don't care what you're you or whoever think.. point I'm making is I was in here consistently before Bron came and the discourse was alot better before you Bron slurpers came and fukked it up and many poster agree with me

DLO/Dennis
Reaves/Beasley
Rui/Troy Brown
Bron/Vanderbilt
AD/Wenyen

Bamba for now is a DNP and so is Lonnie.


Everything I've been hearing from people is that he has problems on the mental side of the game, and I can't really think of a player who struggled to process the game to that serious a degree who turned it around. There are guys who have raw skillsets and improve, there are guys who need to bulk up who mature physically, but ballers with poor bball IQ always have poor bball IQ. Maybe if he was a late bloomer it would be one thing, but he already was a prep star 10 years ago, played 3 years at Gonzaga, is in his 4th year in the pros, and he still can't see the floor for shyt on either side of the ball. It's not hopeful.


But future aside, what does he bring now? That starting lineup you proposed is not a championship roster defensively, Rui doesn't stretch the court, and they already have 3 shot creators there plus Reaves so why would you ever give Rui the ball in an iso when D-Lo, Bron, or AD can do it more efficiently? If you want him for the future that's fine, but if you want to be competitive this year then don't play him.

I would run with a starting lineup of:

D-Lo
Reaves
Bron
Vanderbilt
AD


You could run in Schroeder/Beasley as second unit in the backcourt (or play Walker if Beasley simply isn't hitting shots), but in the frontcourt I would shuffle rather than pulling a full "second unit" to put in at once. Put Brown in at the 3, bump Bron to the 4, and put Wenyen or Bamba in at the 5. Or move AD to the 4 with the same lineup to give Bron a break. Either way, the goal is to use two offensively aggressive guards plus either Bron or AD to be the core of your 2nd unit offensive attack, and then just try and make sure the frontcourt fit around them is good enough especially on defense.

I still have hope for Bamba. Cause he's big I think people worry too much about whether he can punish squads down low. But he's shooting 40% from 3pt this year averaging nearly 3 attempts a game in just 17 minutes, and shot 38% from 3pt last year averaging 4 attempts a game in 25 minutes. That's fantastic shooting on not bad volume. Have him set up behind the 3pt line, set screens, and crash the offensive boards.

There isn't a single frontcourt player on the Lakers right now who is shooting better than 32% from 3pt. Adding a 40% shooter down there would be huge. And he can protect the rim too. Yeah he can't really switch and doesn't have an effective low-post game, but play him situationally and I think he could be an asset.
