Lakers' season already hanging in the balance and the regular season hasn't even started yet.
Lakers only shot this season is if they're healthy and other contending teams aren't
Lakers' season already hanging in the balance and the regular season hasn't even started yet.
I mentioned at the start of last season that the Raptors had a 1-3/-5 that was going to be the best defensive unit we've seen for a very long time, but a lineup of:
Ben
J-Rich
Thybulle
Horford
Embiid
might be even better.
What they lack in experience, they'll make up for in length and ability.
Ben: 7-ft wingspan
J-Rich: 6-11 wingspan
Thybulle: 7-ft wingspan
Horford: 7-1 wingspan
Embiid: 7-5 wingspan
The width of the court is 50-ft, and these muh'fukkas collective wingspan occupies 35+ft of it - they only have to move one step to cover the entire width.
I mean, I could do one for the Lakers, but it'd lack any sort of functionality and cohesiveness:
Oubre had a nice thang going at the back end of last season when he got traded; I wonder if this is the season where he's going to put it all together.

Don't matter if he close the gameI'm not sure how the Pistons justify starting Reggie Jackson over DRose.
Nah, nothing that's in the box score (he actually averaged 17 ppg on good efficiency after he got traded last season, so if you were to look at it like that, 15 ppg would be a step backwards). I'm just simply speaking about having the platform where he's free to let his skillset lose, so he can be a dominant player, not restricted to fulfilling a couple of roles like he was in D.C.If by "all together" you mean 15/6/3 on good %s and solid defense then I'd go for it
I was high on him in the draft. He took longer to come along than I expected. I figured it would take at least two seasons but it took longer.Oubre had a nice thang going at the back end of last season when he got traded; I wonder if this is the season where he's going to put it all together.
Them UVA cats can all play in the NBA.Ty Jerome can play man. He can handle backup point minutes right away.
