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

He should have a one week break for our next game.

I know he needs rest but he always plays like ass after time off. Pelicans game is prob a loss too

They need Bron to play 40 minutes just to beat average teams, how much Bron would you need to beat the Sixers when you don't even have a viable center to match on Embiid?

With all the minutes he's been putting in at 37yo he clearly needs a rest, by sitting this game it gives a 6-day break between games where he can let the nagging injuries heal up a little more.

The Raptors and Cavs are above average B+ plus type teams and they looked pretty good against them. I think the Lakers would have had a chance against the Sixers with Lebron playing

They have literally no one to guard Embiid plus Maxey has been on fire for two months. I don't see it as worth the shot.

If they were going to rest Bron a game this was the perfect one to rest.

We gonna beat the Sixers regardless

Kendrick Nunn bouncing a basketball.

If AD/Nunn are both back before the playoffs I think LA can win the championship.

There's back and then there's "back".

If AD and Nunn were both back, playing at 100%, somehow got back up to full speed immediately, inserted into the offense perfectly and everything gells, and everything else goes right, Lakers would have a real shot considering how Bron is playing. Though the lack of defense at guard would still be a major impediment.

But in reality they're unlikely to be at more than 80%, unlikely to gell quickly, and as dysfunctional as the season has been other things are unlikely to go well either.
