Don’ be a Sabo while chasin’ 4 rings in LA: 2021-22 GOAT franchise Boss Angeles Lakers season thread

[SunZoo]

Nah Westbrook and THT have to go.


If he stays he needs to come off of the bench.

The pieces that Russ needs to thrive would help most starting PG's.

Why try to stretch that contract when you could just build/gear the team around his strenghts instead of a 38 year old Lebron. Worst come to worst he's gone in a year, best case scenario he gains confidence and actually gives you a season like one in Houston or Washington and he's out or can be re-signed for the low.

Yeah that cap space will be very valuable. It all depends on how they end the season.

That remaining schedule is rough. When is AD coming back?

 

[The God Poster]

Hopefully we get this win tonight and make it 2-1

Zero reason we should lose. WIZ are horrible.

From the remaining schedule there is 5 winnable/coin flip games. In order to catch Clippers we must win a couple against the other teams. I still don’t think we’ll catch them & end up having to win two games

Next 5 games will tell us everything. Clips have a brutal schedule while we have Wiz/NO in the mix.

Again it depends on if he's willing to come off the bench. I thought Vogel staggered Westbrook and Bron's minutes perfectly in the first half where both got a chance to play without the other on the court. Russ looked his best when Bron wasn't on the court and vice versa. That's the only way this works.

Who cares. He’ll just leave again after a week. He’s like a deadbeat father.

Oh no ......he called him deadbeat.

Catch the Clips? Almost impossible breh, especially with the way Lakers are playing right now. Every win is almost a miracle. I still think that if they can get the 8th seed, go the play-in, beat the Wolves, they could go to the conference Finals.
Clippers have to completely collapse for this to happen tho.

 

[Damnshow]

Lol lakers are playing suns, mavs, nuggets, warriors, jazz, sixers. They will be happy if they somehow keep the 9th seed. It's impossible to go up.

 

[fifth column]

Lakers just need to thread water the rest of the way and don’t fall out of 9/10 spot. They gonna have to win 2 play-in games to get in regardless.

I think AD will be back by either April 1st or 3rd based on what they are saying, that leaves 5 or 6 games with him playing. I guess we will see what happens.

 

[Mars]

Would not shock me if the Lakers captured the 8th seed....The Clipper's next stretch of games is brutal.

Den, Philly, Utah, Chi, Mil, NO, Phoe, Sac, OKC

 

[HoldThisL]

Only team Lakers have a chance of beating in the playoffs is the Warriors. I can't picture them beating Grizz or Suns at all.

 

[CantStop]

everytime bron passes a milestone, we lose. been happening even when we were actually good. keep that in mind for those that think we're going to win

 

[Voice of Reason]

Vogel is an idiot why isn't Wenyen playing?
