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

[tupac003]

No BI or Ball...

Man smh.

 

[had pants]

 

[Lizakers]

Zo ducking Fox again? Smh

Zo ducking Fox again? Smh

More like our upper management being extra (too) cautious.

Biggest priority this offseason beyond the big name free agents is getting a good backup ball handling guard. Our offense is disgusting without Zo or BI handling the ball for us.

Maybe they can snag Holiday from UCLA in the 2nd rd

 

[CP1708]

BI out.
IT out.

Who's creating their own shot on this roster?

These guys struggling to dribble on their own.

 

[atlsfinest]

Love this kids confidence

 

[CP1708]

We struggling with dribble handoffs.

And winning. (So far)

 

[CP1708]

Lakers have not made a basket in 5+ minutes....

And we're tied.

 

[tupac003]

Wow man...smh

 

[Lizakers]

It’s ok tho cuz Zo BI and IT didn’t play

[MVP]

Lol that was terrible

 

[CP1708]

Over 6 minutes without a FG, til Lopez hits a 3........with 1 second left on the clock.

I was told someone on this roster can get their own shot, but not against the Kings I guess.

Hopefully BI/Ball come back for the last couple games.

 

[tupac003]

6 minutes no buckets. Crazy. Kuzma blew two easy ones and he saying folks can't guard him...

 

[tupac003]

Lol...keep trying.

Nobody cares.

No. Because ennis.

 

[atlsfinest]

Frustrating game to be sure. We lost to a team that Is openly tanking.

I know a lot of people are of the sort that these games don't mean much because we're not going to a playoffs There is no need to trot Ingram and Ball out there but I disagree. These games are important for building chemistry and continuity. I've said it a few times but I don't think we've had a single game with our entire Post trade deadline roster (IT, Ball, Kuzma, Ingram, Hart).

The injury situation with this team has been beyond frustrating, the moment a key player comes back another one goes out. Even if we're not in playoff contention I think it's important for our guys to play if they can. I feel like our training staff is overly cautious with our players.

 

[DLF]

Doubt BI or Ball play at Utah on Tuesday “just to play it safe”

Dummies

 

[thatboydrew]

I cannot take seeing Ennis out there anymore

 

[Lizakers]

22-16 record in our last 38 games
And that’s with BI and Zo being out for extended periods

Cot damn injuries

We're handling our injuries similar to the Warriors. They sit players out an extra game or two knowing that its not worth the risk of re-injury to win a regular season game or two. The issue is that we don't have Warriors-type depth. If we keep Zo and BI from playing then we're down to Ennis and Caruso playing point guard

 

[ill 949]

season is a wrap. It gets a solid B from me all things considered. Bring on the draft and PG

 

[trynafeelmink]

So Ya'll telling me that You Rather Risk Re-injury to two of our building blocks for the sake of the regular season..... They'll have more than enough time to build Chemistry Over Camp & preaseason

 

[thasoleful1]

Any reason they still not giving Thomas Bryant any burn. Dude is a monster in g league
