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

[DLF]

Morris either needs to start at PF and slide AD to center

or Start Howard in place of Javale

or

keep Javale in the starting line up BUT start Dwight to start the 2nd quarter vs Plumlee like we have all season.

if we don’t do any of these we will lose for sure

 

[Mr Dink]

Give Caruso all of Danny Green's minutes.

Need shooting

With how little green is giving you athletically on defense I’d rather play JR a little. If he can hit a couple 3s and stay in front of Craig we should be ok with him out there

 

[MajinZuub]

Give Caruso all of Danny Green's minutes.

Caruso didn't look great either. I know he's a favorite but he has a tendency to look totally out of his element some games.

KCP has really been the most reliable role player as of late

 

[purpnyellow]

Play THT his length should give Murray problems

Nah man. We gotta make sure Javale plays bc he has nudes on Vogel remember

 

[tay1]

What I like about Vogel is that he’s at least open to making adjustments. Don’t play Javale and play more zone. Those are the main adjustment we gotta make as a team.

The Nuggets aren’t gonna shoot 56% again. Lebron needs to get it going early. And AD needs to get out of his head and do his thing. Early on the Nuggets doubled him early once he got the ball and got flustered a bit

Like our PRESIDENT ELECT, No lies told here. So accurate

 

[SORIANOTRON]

Who are those 3 people? AD has been regulated to the perimeter when Dwight and Javele are in the game so his man isn't in the paint. Danny and KCP are out on the perimeter almost exclusively so their 2 guys are at least trying to shade and then you got the guy who's guarding Bron. Bottom line this series he hasn't been able to beat anyone but Joker really off the dribble. You must be watching a different game than what's actually happening.

Bron has had his jumper get streaky and got points in transition, in the half court he's been awful. The guys hit enough shots in games 1 and 2 yet he was still only effective in the 1 half of game 2.

It doesn't excuse the passivity that we continue to point out nor the careless nature he's had with the ball this series.

Milsap, jok and grant all been in the paint cheating on their guys. Watch tomorrow when lebron get to the rack, they collapsing tough...I mean wouldn’t you?

yall wanna be up and up when we win but when we loose you wanna blame lebron.

lebron THE ONLY reason when in the playoffs and in a position to win a ring, so just know that

LMAO THE ONLY reason? You are smoking K2.

Joker is guarding the C yes. But Grant is guarding Bron and cheating? Millsap isn't paying attention to AD? Yea you watching 2 different games.

 

[SORIANOTRON]

If lebron don’t come to LA, where we at?

it ain’t in the western conference finals playing with anthony davis ill tell you that

umm yes when lebron make his move to the paint guys are collapsing, is that like a radical foreign concept to you?

Probably with Kawhi and the kids idk you the one living in the upside down so you'd have better insight. It's something he's struggled with for a lot of the season being able to beat long wings off the dribble. That hasn't changed in the playoffs either.

Exactly sit yo *** down when grown folks talking.

 

[Lizakers]

All I know is we better win it this year

LeBron will be 36 soon

 

[tay1]

No one person is the reason for what happens or have happened. Us functioning as a team is why we’re here

 

[MVP]

Exactly sit yo *** down with grown folks talking.

Please you can't even analyze what's actually happening on the floor. Nobody is above criticism on the team. We call out AD when he's playing soft and not imposing his will, Bron can get the same.

 

[Lizakers]

Imagine if our shooters actually made shots consistently. We have two great defending guards who can’t shoot but bring great energy on defense. We have Green who’s too inconsistent. Same with KCP. Cook and JR don’t play at all. We just aren’t good as a 3 point shooting team

That sounds cute and all

But be real though, if lebron don’t come to LA.........

It would be great if we were but we don’t need all the 3’s anyway. We just need our 3rd player to step up. And our 3rd player changes from game to game

If we were at least an AVERAGE shooting 3 point team, we be blowing other teams out the water....I think reg season we were like near the bottom if not dead last in 3pt %

you don’t necessarily need a 3rd guy if the other 12 can hit open shots.....

 

[Lizakers]

That sounds cute and all

But be real though, if lebron don’t come to LA.........

I believe we’d have Kawhi and PG with possibly BI, Lonzo, Zubac, Hart and Kuz

seeing how the clippers performed I’m glad we got LeBron and AD

 

[tay1]

If we didn’t get AD...

 

[moonman818]

Can Kuz just give us one 20 point game. Just one.

We don't even need you next round... just give us one classic Kuz performance.

 

[SORIANOTRON]

If we didn’t get AD...

He wouldn’t have even came if lebron wasn’t here family
