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

[denni5themenace]

when vando, gabe, and lebron are back healthy, how do you guys think the rotation/minutes distribution shakes out? ideally i'd like ham to find 20-30 minutes for rui and IMO cam has earned some minutes going forward.

 

[darthska]

IMO cam has earned some minutes going forward.

Absolutely. Just no corner 3s.

Once Vando gets his sea legs under him:

AD - 35
Bron - 32
Vando - 24
Prince - 26
D'Lo - 30

Wood - 20
Rui - 20
Reddish/Christie - 11
Reaves - 28
Vincent - 14

I'd put Prince in rice when everyone is healthy

this is the way

 

[atlsfinest]

We have to figure out the three-point shooting situation. Shooting such a low percentage and hitting such a small raw number of three-pointers puts us at a huge disadvantage.

 

[tupac003]

So probably about 2 more weeks for Vando.

 

[pmatic]

Feel confident D'Lo, Reaves and Prince will get up to their career norms in time. They make up nearly half the team's attempts and are at 28%, 31% and 31% respectively.

And Vincent can't be any worse shooting the ball when he returns.

 

[pdino]

HAM gotta decide whether Prince or Cam. Pros and cons for each

If Cam plays how he is or even just 9-12 points on decent efficiency but brings defensive hustle. It is Hard to see how Rui isn’t the guy who suffers.

Say it was DLo. And they trade him. It would need to be for a guard who is better than him because
30/30/30 for DLo/AR/Gabe with 8-10 minutes of Cam at the 2 and the rest at the 3 is better than 30/30/30 Gabe/AR/Cam where you’d also have to sacrifice Rui as well as minutes shake out between Vando/Bro/TP and then Rui.

Or Cam gets his minutes cut which seems a bit discouraging.

 

[BIG LEEMELONE]

If Cam and Rui are playing like this there's no use for TP. He has the least impact of the 3

I think there’s room for Prince, Rui, Vando and Reddish. Christie will have to sit.

Christie's only playing because Gabe is out . Not enough minutes for everybody

 

[tupac003]

He will be back Wednesday for sure...

 

[darthska]

We're .500.
Season started?

 

[pmatic]

I love the joke that "the season starts next game" is still used by us over 10 years later.

 

[oh you mad]

Season starts game 1 of the finals.

 

[grittyman]

I love this.

EYE think you saw what EYE did there

No use for TP?

I’m giving the Ham influence of playing a veteran. Live look at Ham

Wait for a 2 game losing streak and we’ll see random tweets and posts about trading AD
