Official 2018 NBA Preseason Thread - Jimmy Butler Does Things

[MVP]

Lol

Laker fans come get y'alls man.

You sound goofy. That's all Javele is doing for the damn minimum. Randle was great last season when he had the ball in his hands in the half court able to face up. Taking it out of his hands severely limits what he does best. And Bron actually is a savant in the open floor and can take the ball coast to coast without getting a offensive foul 90% of the time like Juju did.

You described him being a finisher and suggested we should have ponied up a premium to do so.

If we goofed anywhere it was not bringing Lopez back. Could use a floor spacer out there with the starting unit plus he has actual post moves.

You do realize that lineups change, and Randle’s role could change depending on who he’s out there with at times, correct?

Defense doesn't matter for the forward positions

Under Armour does put out ugly shoes that look like payless desings.

They do. They did well with the curry 4, curry 4 lows and curry 5, but everything else was a head scratcher.

Just take THJ and Courtney Lee Minnesota. Best package left.

I know it's preseason but Pels got washed by Toronto's 2nd and 3rd stringers. Free AD.

I’m gonna be a sneaky Mavs watcher this year...

That backcourt + DJ will be a great watch

Starting Center playing 32 min or so a night? Getting a ton of easy buckets from Bron/Rondo/Ingram.

Rondo/Hart/Ingram/Bron/Randle......Lonzo/Kuzma/KCP off bench.

I get what you saying but nah, he ain't worth that bread when he can't shoot and space the floor. That's what we need. Randle is a real rebounder and he hustles but our spacing would be terrible. Can't compare him to TT's role cuz the Cavs had shooters. This team is filled with athletic slashers. Randle had to go.

Butler here in NY?

Media would have a field day everyday.

Imagine *****ing about Dlo and Randle when you have LeBron ******* James on your team.

I LOVED Dlo and Randle, those are the 2 players I really wanted LA to draft during the 4 lottery years, I appreciated their time in LA and really wished they could've been a part of a young core to lead us for the next 10 years but I'm not crying over them leaving.

The end game worked out perfectly. You have 4-5 legit young players & LeBron ******* James AND you have enough room to sign a max free agent next year without giving up anything & you can still package your young players if Unibrow demands a trade. I don't know how things could've worked out better. Sure the roster isn't perfect yet, but give it a year, nobody is expecting them to win a championship until they acquire another max player anyway.

Yall (and it's really only one guy who's not even a Lakers fan LOL ) complain just to complain.

Purple and black do not go together

As a Ravens Fan I beg to differ.

 

[buc em]

Sixers if it’s #1

 

[Platinum State]

I still believe in Jabari, he just doesn’t play defense

And he shoots 30%. What a player
Also.....Harry Giles a real one

 

[BIG LEEMELONE]

Just checking but do people really think the Lakers goofed with Lonzo? Bruh is such a good basketball player. Once his shot starts to fall, and I have zero doubt he'll get to 40% from deep in time, a lot of people are gonna be looking dumb about him

Once his shot starts to fall he'll shoot a better percentage. Tell me more

I can see your troll game taking a B sox-esque leap this season. Sky is the limit

As much as I hate the lakers and hate on Laker fans, I actually really like Zo's game. He's such a smart player and has a great feel of the game.

 

[pums]

Zo my favourite laker but how can anyone be so confident that he’ll get to 40 percent.
