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

[tupac003]

dont think they do Kawhi at the 4 with Morris there now
prob close with pat lou kawhi morris trez no?

It will be interesting to see who the Clippers do trot out to close out games now.

They were talking about this on 710. Yeah the Clippers per say are "deeper" but come the playoffs the rotations get shorter so they still gotta figure that unit out..

 

[DLF]

Anyone else worried that the Morris thing will fall out. Whole league is against us so I wouldn’t be shocked if a team with cap space takes him just to spite us.

I think they close with lou and PG at guard instead of Lou and Bev

If they go that route we can go AB or AC on Lou or Bev, DG on PG, Bron on Kawhi, AD on Morris and Dwight on Trez. Or AD on Trez and Morris/Kuzma on Morris depending on who hot

Either way the Clips are fk'd. And when we done with em, all of Clipper nation gonna wish they had an answer for all that AD, Javale, Kieffer, and Dwight nasty they bout to run up against.

I think we good. He apparently gave the Lakers his word no?

 

[htg designs]

Like his bro gave the Spurs his word?....

 

[DLF]

But teams can still claim him off waivers. He has no say in that. Of course teams don’t want a guy on their team that’s disgruntled but they make an exception bc lakers are involved and they’d rather hurt themselves then makes lakers better

Oh **** I forgot PG was there for a moment lmao

but lakers showed some flashes tonight man that only a champ level team with HIGH chemistry can do

 

[Brosizzlew30.23]

Lemme see it against a contending team.

 

[BIG LEEMELONE]

Pre ASB Lakers would not have covered that game. Good to see.

We sure that’s not a Bean?

Still surprised they would waive Boogie, but:

 

[atlsfinest]

Boogie still sitting courtside


Plus/minus
Caruso: 9 pts, plus 23 in 22 minutes
Rondo: 5 pts, minus 7 in 16 minutes

 

[trynafeelmink]

Peep the difference in tone and wording and people don’t think this ****ing dweeb woj got an agenda

I'm really starting to hate this dude man, at least with other national reporters they're clear about their dislike for the Lakers and open. this weasel keeps sneaking shots in

 

[leavemeglazzies]

Marcus is better than Markieff, but I think that the Lakers might need Markieff more than the Clippers need Marcus, since the Clippers had more depth than the Lakers to begin with.
I hope that the Lakers have reached some sort of gentlemen's agreement with Boogie, where they agreed to part ways for this season, but that they would pick him up for next season.

 

[Maximus Meridius]

Danny Greens defense was great. That man was +26 with 3 points.

 

[DLF]

Rondo was the sole reason why we gave up such a big lead. I hate that guy and Vogel some for not limiting his minutes even more. Bring cook in instead

 

[Maximus Meridius]

He always gotta sensationalize the story.


People have really built up his ego with all that "Woj bomb" talk. He's a character at this point.

 

[atlsfinest]

Like I said earlier, plus-minus tells the whole story:
Caruso: 9 pts, plus 23 in 22 minutes
Rondo: 5 pts, minus 7 in 16 minutes

How are you minus 7 in your team's 12-point win? The only reason he gets playing time it's because he's a veteran who is respected and we're hoping for "playoff Rondo" Anyone who looks at the situation objectively will tell you that Caruso should get all of Rondo minutes and Cook should get the rest.
