This series would be 1-2 minimum if the role players performed up to their expectations....Dlo once again has folded against quality competition.
Rui, Austin, and DLO

Massively disappointing (Reaves has done a decent job of Murray)

There was so much talk about LA trading for Bogdanovic/Murray......JMO...If LA had Bogdon/D. Murray instead of Rui/Dlo the Lakers would be up 2-1....and imagine if Pelinka got a solid backup center?..... Now would I have made a Rui for Bogdon trade?... Probably not...but maybe LA could've gotten him for a protected 1st rd pk.

The only way Pelinka makes up for punting at the deadline is if he can use those assets to acquire D. Mitchell and pair him with AD/Lebron.

i don’t think people understood that certain people on this forum were of the mindset to face the Nuggets when everyone was hot and healthy, rather than after long playoff series

Lakers had won like 12 out of 15 heading into the playoffs.. just so happens that the role players have fallen on their face


"just so happens" huh :laff:

Rui and Austin played GREAT in the series against Denver last year. I thought it was lofty for them to match that production, but it was certainly in the ballpark that they come close

Rui had been one of the most efficient shooters in the entire NBA post All Star Break.

This series was originally talked about as "Can AD/Bron match Jokic/Murray" and "can DLO show up".. it turned into "Can anyone not named AD/Bron show up?"

Problem with the lakers

Pelinka has no clue about drafting young talent and jeanie blessed her heart will throw money towards players who are close to being washed up
Pelinka has no clue about anything.

Grade all the areas

Free agents:

Signed: Gabe Vincent, Montrezl Harrell, Kedrick Nunn, Christian Wood, Cam Reddish, Ariza etc

In the summer of 2021 Pelinka signed every player in the league n

Let walk: Brook Lopez, Dwight Howard, Caruso, Lonnie Walker, Dennis Schroeder

Draft

JHS was his pick. The scouts wanted Cam. He overrode them.

Trades
Westbrook for KCP, Kuz, Harrel and a first round pick

Zubac for for some scrub

DLO, vando and Beasley for Westbrook and a first round pick.

AD trade. AD made it clear he was only willing to go to the Lakers. So Pelinka wasnt competing against any other gm. And he still overpaid for him.

Coaching
Vogel
Ham

Mind you he passed on Ty Lue who is universally considered a top 3 coach in the NBA.

That's what I can remember.

He gets a D in every category.

That's the worst resume of any GM in the league.

I blame Rui more than anyone for this series loss. If he could get some contested rebounds and play decent defense he would be able to neutralize some of what Gordon brings

This is horrific when you actually put it all together like this.. Lakers actually got lucky with their 2020 roster, if we remember it was a last second haul after Kawhi scorned the Lakers later in FA

Another lie

Our picks since Pelinka after the obvious lotto picks:

Kuzma: 27th
Josh Hart: 30th
Thomas Bryant: 42
Wagner: 25
Bonga: 39
Svi: 47th
THT:46
Max Christie: 35
JHS: 17

You can question the development but that’s not on him. But they’ve gotten a better return on their picks compared to most teams that draft in their range.

You guys hate Pelinka so much that you don’t even understand that drafting is actually his strongest suit lmao.

The issue again is that they gave all those players away for essentially nothing.

It's a constant pattern with Pelinka that he can't actually get value back from any of these picks.. none
