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

[DLF]

Lakers should trade for Lamar Stevens. He’s missed 4 layups. He’s fit in with us.

 

[pmatic]

Melo has been at fault for nearly every Cavs layup. What an abomination.

 

[tupac003]

Foul was way before the shot.

But I'll take the tech.

 

[frink85]

spectrum messin up I was watching on a TV with a box got up to my room with the roku + spectrum app, channel doesnt even show up on the guide

 

[tupac003]

Russ has gotten his fair share of criticism for turnovers...

But Bron has been no better....

 

[DLF]

Melo has been like 1-35 from 3 outside that Memphis game

 

[pmatic]

AD.

You gotta put Love through the hoop there.

 

[MIKE LOWERY]

Melo has been at fault for nearly every Cavs layup. What an abomination.

Melo my ***** I hate it had to be him.

He might be the worst in the league thus far. Melo will swipe down one good time, might body you up a lil bit. Besides that he can't stay in front of anyone any more. Not looking good for my dog.

 

[pmatic]

Went on a run with the defensive lineup. Who'd have thunk that?

 

[DLF]

Who would have thunk it:

having defensive players out there improves the defense

 

[goldmember]

All that bulking up just to play outside the paint. FOH AD

 

[DLF]

Who would have thunk it:

having defensive players out the the defense

Turns out we didn’t need one dimensional 3 point shooters but actual hard nose defenders to be good

 

[tupac003]

Turnovers and second chance points.

 

[tupac003]

Please stop with the 3's

Please.

 

[DLF]

I just realized something that blew my mind:

Russell Westbrook deservingly made the top 75 list….however, he might also be arguably the worst high usage star basketball player I’ve ever seen. Great and HORRIBLE at the same time.

 

[tupac003]

This team is not playing championship defense at all.

 

[DLF]

Remember the days when Kobe use to control the pace of an entire game. Some games he’d decide to score for 8 straight minutes. Shot after shot. Make after make. Then he would spend the next 4 mins setting up pau now that they doubled him. Or start games to get others going and then spend a 8 min stretch going to work and just demoralize opponents.

RIP da GOAT

 

[atransta]

Headband lebron was shooting the 3 way better

 

[drewsone]

This team stinks

russ is TERRIBLE on defense bruh lmao

 

[DLF]

This team is not playing championship defense at all.

Jordan
Ellington
Monk
Melo
Likely Baze but he’s good off bench

will all be gone. Once team stays in the 20s defensively. They will switch mid season to all defense.

tht
Ariza
Lebron
Rondo (not for defense)
Westbrook
AD
Howard
bradley
Reaves

New:
Mathews
Defensive wing
Defensive wing
Defensive wing
Younger center

defensive wing at this pt will be is Wes Mathew’s quality. Maybe Aminu, Harkless type

 

[tupac003]

This team stinks

russ is TERRIBLE on defense bruh lmao

You ain't lying.

No reason this team should be this bad.

 

[DLF]
