So how do we get Wes back into the rotation? Do we cut THT minutes again or KCP? Seems like he needs to get back into the rotation. We’re not going to be cutting Caruso minutes that’s for sure.
sometimes i think how crazy it sounds but he is so valuable to this team:ehh::ehh:
defensively he's good:ehh:
and lately he been hitting more shots:ehh:
he reminds me of Draymond before he went autistic
he plays with alot of hustle/energy:ehh:

He also plays within the offense really well. Sets the right screens, makes cuts at the right times, sees the open man. His actual offensive skills aren't great but with Rondo and Bradley gone he's now the top bball IQ guy among the Laker guards.

Draymond is actually a good comp in a way.

which big r the lakers waiting on??

I honestly have no clue why they haven't already signed John Henson. I feel like there's something wrong with him that I don't know about because he should be a more desired asset around the league than he is. Not that he's necessarily the answer but he deserves a roster spot at least with A.D. gone all the time and Gasol limited as hell.

Drummond is the one everyone talking about of course. They're saying buyout market but I still think it's more likely the Cavs trade him, and if they do then the Lakers won't have the salaries they need to match.

I think Robin Lopez is an interesting option.

Yall keep saying Lebron's tired and should sit as if he wasn't lifting weights before the game.



Lebron knows his body...I believe with AD out he is conserving his energy for the offensive side of the ball...The other 4 players on the court need to pick Lebron up on defense.

Getting the #1 seed would be huge, especially if we face Philly in the finals.

He knows his body for sure, but the coaches shouldnt just leave it up to the players on rest. LeBron is over 60,000 minutes (reg season + playoffs) and has done it as the primary ball handler for most of it.

Kareem 66,000
Malone 63,000
LeBron 60,000

It's not about having the energy, it's about the small wear and tear that accumulates when you're logging big minutes. You just become more prone to random soft tissue injuries
