Clarkson showed great court vision last season against first string defense and this year when he actually tries to get the team involved. Haven't seen d lo navigate screens and manipulate the defense as well as jc did laat year, yet. Seems like he's been instructed not to worry about it for now. But the day after byron said he wants him to improve his passing he dropped 7 assists so we'll see what he does from here on out. +/- is a garbage stat but Russell seeing all of his time against bench units might have something to do with that.

Clarkson >>> D'Lo

biiggtone · Feb 16, 2016

Let that chump, Russell, come off the Bench.. Srs.

Jordan is awesome, a great story, a great kid and has earned himself a LARGE contract this offseason...

but Clarkson is trade bait maybe trade deadline next year IMO

Sidebar:

DLo's vision and P/R prowess would make me think that a lights out shooter at the 2 spot would be fantastic.

Khris Middleton for Clarkson, Lou.... who says no? :lol:

He's not.

This is basically the same discussion of people saying Nance is better than Randle.

biiggtone · Feb 16, 2016

Everybody has their opinion, thats Fine.. Right now, today, Clarkson is our best player.. That statement is Facts.

I swear some of y'all man. Smh. Like y'all really analyze and offer opinions like this is 2k

It's a message board bro ...I mean that kinda is the point...discussion, banter, etc.

Why does Courtney Lee bounce around so much? Good player

pmatic · Feb 16, 2016

Circumstance more than anything.

If the Lakers could move Lou, Lee would have been a decent secondary target in FA. Start Russell-Lee and bring Clarkson off the bench.

BIG LEEMELONE · Feb 16, 2016

Courtney lee over clarkson. I'm being trolled

fun guy · Feb 16, 2016

I think its mainly for defensive balance. Clarkson is a spark plug player and I think would be equally effective coming off the bench, possibly even better.

Yea I'm just gonna (try to) let it go from now on. Laker fans always looking for a late round steal and then when we get one they wanna trade him or not let him grow. I doubt if that happens so it's moot anyway

It's just a projection on my part.

I'd love for Clarkson to prove me wrong. :\

I mean, they wanna do it with the #2 pick, no way #46 gonna stand a chance. :lol:

We're 2-3 summer league games away from "Brandon Ingram is trash, we shoulda drafted Gary Payton Jr", blah blah blah

If Clarkson gets a huge contract extension.The same fans who love him right now, will be the first one's calling for him to be traded if he's averaging below 20 points per game and does not make the allstar team as a starter or reserve next year. Dude's will be saying we over paid him and now his trade value went down and he'll be in his 3rd season.

So yup it's the gift & the curse.

Life ain't fair.

I've always viewed and still think's he's a nice player but isn't the type of a player a franchise can build around.

Dude deserves to get paid. But Lakers should be cautious and give him some money but do a 3 or 4 year deal where there is a team option and buyout after year 2 if things don't workout for both the Lakers or him.
