**LA LAKERS THREAD** Sitting on 17! 2023-2024 offseason begins

[essential1]

Nah the time for DLO in the Lakers been over. He was a top draft pick so of course he has the talent. Was just an immature kid at the time.
He had off-court issues with the team at the time so thats the main reason i was cool with him leaving.
He's playing in the East of course his numbers went up.

[drewsone]

[619destroyer858]

LEBRON will do whatever it takes to make the POSTSEASON this year

.....If he has to average points wise like Harden he will,,,he should and QUIT passing the ball to McGee,,Bronny ............

I’m really curious to see how he will supposedly carry this roster to the playoffs. Will be an interesting final 25 games.

TOTAL failure for MAGIC J if we missed the playoffs

You realize those are per 36 stats and not his raw stats, right?

 

[grittyman]

Glad to see D’Angelo playing at high level, never questioned his talent.

I did however have a lot of questions about the Lakers approach to “developing” him at the time. Long story short I’d argue that he was never truly put in a situation to succeed, and seems like the same thing is happening right now with Brandon Ingram.

Year 2 of the Magic era in LA...how many years do you guys think it’ll realistically take them to turn this thing around? Or have they failed to inspire any confidence that they’ll be able to deliver the goods?

How did we get here ???

What type of answer you looking for truth or sugarcoating?
Guys got hurt and missed some games, in their absence nobody stepped up on a consistent basis. Poor offensive/defensive schemes, overestimating of some of our pieces, and trading away others.

About sums it up in a nutshell.

 

[titang545]

Is this the measuring stick people are using for LeBron compared to Kobe greatness?

Ain't doing anything for Valentine Day, married with two kids. You can say we did enough already for Valentine Day hence the two kids.

Coulda made the Playoffs that year with an aging Kobe if we had the players we have now instead of Bron. Just saying...

Which is weird since it is so much easier to score now, but it cancels out since nobody plays defense.

 

[Lizakers]

Look at the Clippers roster

Please look at their roster

How are they winning games?

Doc man....

 

[kobeoverbron]

Doc knows how to fire up a bunch of duds. Players like him.

And for years the NBA thread was acting like Doc is a bad coach.

He just needed to give a tryna be a GM.
