Now we're playing projects in limited minutes in the 1st qtr of NBA games while holding a lead
this nikka talking about "lol" when JJ plays a project in important minutes but was calling a black man a terrorist for playing Taurean Prince...real nasty work y'all
So Fox wants nothing to with the Lakers. I wonder why. 
Yes.. it’s why JHS got burn certain parts of last year when the rotation got tight due to injury or minutes managementNow we're playing projects in limited minutes in the 1st qtr of NBA games while holding a lead

You ain’t to bright breh
I was always an advocate for TP.. just not playing 34 min a game
It's funny how in the last 4 wins, we didnt insert a scrub into the game while holding a lead in the 1st qtr for no reason
Oh yeah, two of those 4 wins were against the absolute worse teams in the league, one of which we almost blew. Thread was jumping during the Celtics game and the Dubs game was on a Saturday night
Oh yeah, before the win streak you had nikkas in here publishing essays saying AD was overrated and fools gold after the Clippers loss, yet he's been the main reason for our win streak since then. Go figure.
Poor Mans Gabe with a 4 year guaranteed
Only the first two years are fully guaranteed. The third is partial and the fourth is a team option.

Thanks to the lawyers uh, I marbled the foyer
Damn, Bronny still ringing off them donuts?
This thread loves overrating AD to shyt on Bron and that’s funny to me.
Anthony Davis is the most overrated superstar in the NBA and after years of watching this team I’ve realized he is the true problem and no amount of roster makeovers will fix it.
On average roughly 70 percent of ADs scored field goals are assisted. “Run and dunk man” Giannis is only assisted on about 35 percent of his shots. I’d be willing to bet of the 30 percent that are unassisted a good chunk are also just offensive putbacks. In other words, ADs offensive bag is very limited.
People have the perception that Giannis is unskilled because he looks a little stiff while someone like AD looks fluid but in reality AD could only dream of being as skilled or offensively impactful as Greek. Giannis is actually the best mid range player in the NBA this year statistically and continues to evolve his offense every season. I can’t say the same for AD.
AD is not physically dominant enough to impose himself on defenses like Shaq and Greek. Nor is he skilled enough to take what the defense gives him like Jokic, Embiid, Greek again.
You give him space to shoot the middy, he can’t hit consistently.
You feed him in the post and tell him to hunt his matchup 1 on 1, he can’t produce consistently. How many times have we seen this guy get wrecked by supposedly “inferior” bigs like Sabonis and Zubac. For all the slander folks love to give Embiid, one thing I can say is that he shyts all over Jokic every time they face off.
You tell him go iso, he doesn’t have the bag to do things like go for mid range pull ups consistently.
He gets doubled in the post and he’s not a good enough playmaker to make defenses pay.
Even his FT shooting has regressed, at least points from FTs used to mask how bagless he really is.
When was the last time you watched LA play a team with an elite big and felt confident in ADs ability to outplay his matchup?
Have you ever watched the Lakers enter the 4th facing a deficit and thought to yourself “it’s ok we have AD?”
Part of the reason it feels so hopeless to watch this team when they go down big is because if Bron doesn’t have it going, that’s it. You can’t force feed AD the ball and watch him generate offense possession after possession the way other elite bigs can.
The Lakers are paying nearly 200 Ms for a “first option” big whose offensive skillset closer resembles Clint Capela or Deandre Jordan than it does any championship caliber big man in league history.
Dude has never been able to lead a team. He underachieved in New Orleans and the best they ever did was 8th seed with a supporting cast that is comparable to what Jokic has right now in Denver.
Every year we’re told this is the year the Lakers give AD “the keys” and he unlocks his potential and every year it’s more of the same. If yall put your Bron hate boner aside, you’ll realize the man is 40 and there’s no reason the team should be so reliant on his offensive production. Even then there are countless games where he showed up when it counts or took over. AD can’t do that shyt.
The dude is FOOLS GOLD.
This post was made after the Clippers game and all these guys dapped it
Since this post was made though....
none of the posters who dapped that essay have showed up in this thread since then except HoeDawg, who just shows up during the spurts when Bron balls out
@steph_harden gave positive rep to that essay and called it the "cold hard truth" yet he been ghost during the win streakbut a few of u dorks wanna monitor the thread activity huh
Im taking this thread back, fukk u nikkas
The Celtics game was not jumping. I posted the numbers. Yall ignored that thread like the plague after it was obvious LA was going to win
