Shout out to Silk. Birthed half these Gen Z rappers out today

KG didn't have the nose to score like that. He should've because he did have an elite package of skills and athleticism.

This was the case. He definitely had the tools but he was very unselfish and another thing is he had to do so much in Minnesota. He was literally impacting every part of the floor. Scoring, elite rebounder, defending every position, getting 4-5 assists.

Ima always say he was a better player than Dirk.

Silkk was the Thanasis Antetokounmpo of rap.

ar living a life of leisure during lakers pre season was something i didn't expect to see so early

his agent should have been canned for not seeing just a couple of months into the future and accepting such a paltry contract

A guy who was an undrafted 23 year old is taking whatever is offered man

14 per for 4 years Lakers deserve credit for finding him in the first place but at that rate is nuts

Cba came through for them on that one

I remember the spurs being rumored to sign him for 100, wouldn’t even have been mad at that

 

[BIG LEEMELONE]

Spurs really should've. Not like they used their cap for anything

zach lowe even asked him if he was mad the spurs didnt offer him that max deal

They did the vassell deal but he and Reaves could co exist and wouldn’t be a bad duo with victor

 

[Vincent Van Goat]

Going back to it- victor is way more Durant than Garnett in terms of shot selection and footwork

Have not been impressed with the front office at all during the rebuild. I guess you can’t keep hitting grand slams forever but still.

Primo over Al P, Vassell over Haliburton.

So much young talent in the league and the most exciting part about Wemby being there is being coached by Pop.

Taller, thinner, more mobile AD with handle

Dawg AD still doesn’t have the perimeter footwork that victor already has right now

Nor the shot diversity off the bounce

The Thompsons buy a house. I choose #3 for Ausar

It was some nice spots…I would rent something close to the arena my rookie year so I can get a feel for the area and figure out the game/work routine before I buy a crib tho

Their roster is just not exciting in the least which is why I didn’t want victor to end up there

However pop is there and at least he’ll be thrown into a primary creating role

Other than that- I guess I can see him in person so that’s also a plus but that’s about it

Replacement GM wouldn’t have the wisdom.

His footwork is insane. In the midrange to me it looks obvious that he studied a lot of Kobe's game. And on defense the way he can shuffle and chop his steps to swivel around. He could just use his size but he likes to use his feet. He's unnecessarily skilled

 

[pmatic]

Pelinka has gotten skewered by the fanbase for continually giving out two year deals to young guys. It worked in Pelinka's favor this time around because other teams spent their cap space elsewhere. I imagine if Reaves had signed a three year deal, teams would already be lining up the Brinks truck in anticipation for Reaves.

We heard about 1000x before ADs draft that he was a guard growing up.

Wemby actually looks like it

 

[pmatic]

The increased muscle and lower leg injuries have slowed AD's fluidity. The jump shot never progressed, but the mobility and ball handling was there with younger AD.
