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

Doesn't matter imo. If you have a 6-inch height advantage, you MILK IT and use it as a way to create plays for others (aka, force the double team)

Kemba stronger will take his legs out

 

[essential1]

He's not a very good post player at this stage of his career. All he does is 18 foot fade aways like the one blocked by D Rose

Not true.. He's actually very effective in the post.

Like P said, other things had worked in the game, and were working at the time

Sit Randle AND Russell on the pine for the rest of the game.

I'm sick and tired of watching these two clowns play softer than a third grader's first ever organized basketball game.

I'll give you Randle, he's been terrible since he came in in the second..

Have you really watched this 3rd Quarter...


Russell got us 2 buckets early.

And has gotten Deng, Randle & Nick twice... Good looks, and they all missed.

But look at how many times Kemba beat Russell off the dribble.

Russell will make a couple good plays here and there. But here's the key....he CANNOT SUSTAIN IT long enough for his teammates to generate runs and develop a rhythm. Hence, why his +/- is a negative in this game.

What is JC doing!?!?

 

[tupac003]

Hornets can't miss, we can't hit and zero defense.

22 to 3 run...yikes.

 

[whiplashtw03]

Anybody also notice that when Russell is not in the game, Young's play ELEVATES and seems to create energy thereby picking up the play of others?

 

[tupac003]

Swaggy!!!

 

[pmatic]

[pmatic]

They lost their composure.

 

[whiplashtw03]

They lost their composure.

That's on the "leader" on the floor - Russell

 

[tupac003]

Just means I have my own opinion.

 

[trickster360cj]

Another injured player

Actually untrue...

His Best 5 lineups, where he is plus scoring, 4 include Russell

[moonman818]

[EddieDoyers]
