Lakers need a big… but also gotta do something about the ball handler options

Idk if they are counting on Gabe as an emergency guy, but that doesn’t sound good at all

Maybe Milton is their emergency guy, so we’ll see

All the bigs you guys mention... think three rungs down from that tier.
Timelord is an option but he’s extremely risky considering that Vando is on this team also

I think the upside of him is something worth looking at

Man what are you rambling about:russ:

They’ve beaten the kings 3 times, the blazers once & an inept Warriors teams.

They’ve done exactly what I said is needed by beating mid teams. My entire point was teams in general will put forth a better defensive effort for a coach who enforces it. You just arguing to argue
Oh, you doubling down.

:lolbron:

You completely overreacted to a dead spot in their schedule, at the start of December, no less. I told you that teams always go through periods where they lack effort and urgency, that's what happens over the course of an 82-game season. I know you won't admit to your agenda, but they lacked defensive intensity at times under Ham too, so I can't possibly fathom why you chose to hang your argument on them showing inconsitent effort on that side of the floor this season too.

A middling team like the Lakers aren't going to show defensive effort, night in, night out. It doesn't work like that, no matter who the coach is.

Good to have cleared up that I was right from the start and that they'd look the same.

Before the Kyrie trade, Dorian was my second favorite Maverick in the post-Dirk era.

Dorian is one of my favorite players to have rooted for. Wish we still had him. Was an incredible locker room and chemistry guy. Did the dirty work. Never complains. Guarded the opposition’s best player night in, night out. Never needed to be load managed or was a high-maintenance diva.

I’d say treat him right but I know LWO gonna be making Guangdong Tigers memes about him after his first 0-3 from 3pt game.
