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

[CHERUB]

hillbilly kobe needs more run. Breh just understands basketball and can shoot

He gon make Ellington and Nunn expendable

 

[Omerta]

Team will only get better.

Lots of positives tonight.

Reaves can hopefully hold out defensively until THT and Nunn get back, which will mean even less opportunities for Rondo and Jordan (more guards available means AD needs to move to 5 to accommodate them).

Like that they used Russ as a screener. The more they practice that or Melo being a blind screener will open the floor so much.

 

[Dr. Narcisse]

You been telling me for years Bron make players better though

Bron can lead em to water but he cant make em drink it

 

[FcKuPaYmE]

No matter how you cut that shyt up we look better than the Nets through 3 games

Nets gone ad Kyrie though. Who yall adding?

 

[Hersh]

I think we will make move...

I think the Lavine train is gone thou..

 

[HollywoodP]

Good win...this team is learning and building... practice by practice... game by game... quarter by quarter. On some TMC shyt

sidenote: Even though he hasn't yet developed that clutch gene ...Ja Morant will be a problem in this league for years to come. And I don't mean in the near future.

Spoiler

Westbrook is gonna turn winnable games into close games if he keeps having crazy turnovers.

The Myles Turner trade still makes sense but if he continues balling like he did the other day it's not happening.

 

[Voice of Reason]

Spacing is still a big problem.

 

[Voice of Reason]

Would be great if Melo had a resurgent year on offense. If he was offensively good enough to start we could shift Bron to the 4 and force AD to the 5 spot.

Still, this team just needs to keep working on it including Rob. Such a bad move to sign Bazemore over other guys like Otto Porter.

AD does not want to play at the 5. It's obvious that the coaching staff knows he's managing that heeling injury and they don't want him at the 5.

The Lakers need to make a move for a 5 that can shoot 3s at the deadline. Or if Kevin Love is available on the buyout market they definitely will sign him.

 

[Voice of Reason]

We need someone else to defend guards, I cant even blame Bazemore. It was unfair to ask him.

Right, he's an slightly above average defender but he's can't defend quick guards like D Book, Morant, and Steph.

 

[Voice of Reason]

Waive Bazemore tonight

He's there best defender wing

 

[High quality poster]

I think we will make move...

I think the Lavine train is gone thou..

What? Y’all thought y’all would get Lavine? How?

 

[2Quik4UHoes]

What? Y’all thought y’all would get Lavine? How?

Because we’re the GOAT franchise in all professional sports…..

The good thing is Russ was trash to start the year the last two years

I mean you'd hope they can sit Bron for long stretches of the game eventually.

Yeah he was trash…are the Lakers going to make the adjustments that those teams made to maximize Westbrook and does Westbrook have that gear yet another year at 33?

Russ would have never played like that if the Rockets didn’t go super small ball with RoCo and Tucker playing the 5.

Russ would have never played like that if the Wiz didn’t acquire bigs like Gafford/Len and went three guard sets with Westbrook, Neto, Beal.
