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

[Dr. Narcisse]

@Voice of Reason There is a real fear of this move being Muscala for Zubac all over again.

However, Cedi Osman for THT or Nunn would be interesting

6'7", 40% from 3, 16 PER, 115/106 Offensive/defensive rating. Just 26 yrs old

Not sure the Cavs do it for Nunn though.

Can't wait till the postseason....LA will get to the finals.

 

[Osmosis]

Can't believe they wasted 20 games starting Deandre

 

[Guile]

@Gil Scott-Heroin gonna say he had the Lakers as a fringe wcf team all this time when AD come back.

 

[Regular_P]

who we like?

Covington

Grant

Turner

Covington sucks. I don't see how Grant fits.

Turner would be amazing but this team doesn't have anything to offer for him...unless it's AD.

I've been thinking about it lately. This is the first year where LeBron FEELS like a Laker. I don't know if that makes sense to anybody else. I can't really explain it but it feels like he's one of us now so to speak. He's really our guy now.

Nah you just now really accepting him thats all

I know it’s not true and happening due to injuries and covid but to me it’s ironic that Lebron is playing center and it seems to be working. Is it possible that him and AD just man the big positions from here on out with guys like Dwight playing for 20-24 minutes when they face a team with a big?

That’s pretty much how it’ll be from here on out. When we play teams like Denver and Philly, Dwight will play a good amount. Otherwise, it’s Bron/AD at center. This opens the offense so much more, and when we don’t play a dominant big, we can still defend the paint to a degree. Should be able to do that even more when AD gets back.

You tried to tell everyone that the Lakers would beat up on lottery teams?



Last 10 games:
0-4 against playoff teams
5-1 against lottery teams.

Y’all have had the easiest schedule to date. I’ve been saying for weeks now, just wait until the reality check comes at the end of this month.

Let these brehs commence their circle jerk. Hopefully we start beating real teams soon

Team would be food to the Kawhi/PG Clippers team from a couple years ago (cause AD is not as dominant). At least the Lakers had a Kuzma type back then.

Yep the Clippers are the only team that scared me because when healthy they could out physical the Lakers. Hopefully Kawhi sits out this season

Cedi Osman is my Turkish son

He's the Cavs only wing though, so I don't think they'd trade him for a guard

 

[Sinnerman]

As someone who's been clamoring for Bron at the 5 ever since he got here, especially during the Suns series, I feel somewhat vindicated

Let's go through this upcoming tough stretch first though

Its just on Vogel to know when to pull the trigger when its not working.

Like I said earlier as much as we complain about Russ. His rebounding allows them to get away with playing small.
