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

[noblekane]

Nah.

He looks like he’s a good defender but gets blown by on the regular

whats your problem?

you will blast every player on this roster except for westbrook.

then get highly upset when we blast westbrook.

 

[DLF]

Team is the goods

just wait til we get Ariza back!!

also can’t wait to prove people wrong. We can win with monk Ellington melo deandre playing key rotation minutes in 2021 with a non offensive coach ran by an owner who gets her advice from her BFF LINDA Rambis. I say we go all in and trade tht, waive Howard and Bradley and replace them with reddick, korver, and Jamal Crawford

 

[pmatic]

Lol

 

[BIG LEEMELONE]

Dwight

 

[DLF]

Loving these new gold jerseys on our team:

 

[denni5themenace]

Linda is literally in charge of like community relations.

Kurt works directly with Rob. You sound crazy man.

 

[D StaXX]

Defense is ******* dirt

 

[tupac003]

Rebounding...

These guys could be so much better if they made an effort to rebound the ball.

 

[MIKE LOWERY]

AD is getting bullied by Isaiah Stewart around the basket.



The fact that they have to run a zone every game shows this is a major personnel issue.

 

[IslandBornRedNose]

I go from the raiders disappointing me to the Lakers doing the same lol

 

[tupac003]

Watching Russ take three's is so enjoyable....

15-2 run by the Pistons

We really got 2 threes from dwight.

 

[nermindee]

Heads gonna roll soon

 

[DLF]

I hate how Russ makes his decision before the moment when a decision is needed to be made. Pick and roll and he already knows as the screen is being set if he is gonna pass or shoot. Thus the turnovers

 

[MIKE LOWERY]

Please let Jerami Grant become available/ask out at some point this season.


Please let Detroit be silly enough to take THT/Nunn some vet mins and a couple 2nd rounders.


Amen.

Been saying this for weeks.

even when they go on runs, it doesn’t feel good. It’s the style of play. I think it’s bc of Westbrook. He’s so frustrating to watch you just know being up means nothing bc he can singe handedly lose you a 10 point lead.

 

[DLF]

Amen.

Won’t matter

as long as Russ is on this team, we don’t go anywhere.

This laker team is basically playing with 2 max guys and 12 vet minimum type players (maybe THT gets a mini MLE status). It’s no wonder it’s so easy to stop them

 

[noblekane]

if you cant beat the pistons can you beat anyone?

 

[trynafeelmink]

This is the results of trying to build a team round mostly shooters outside of our stars. You give up on other areas. The defense will improve but it's complete *** right now.

And why is this team incapable of closing quarters man

 

[BIG LEEMELONE]

Can't even really blame Russ individually. But the Russ trade is a bust

 

[drewsone]

zero Effort on defense and rebounding lol

Bron doing that passive play he did in 2018 before they traded half the roster

 

[grittyman]

Yep Bron has checked out for sure lol

 

[D StaXX]

Drastic changes need to happen. This team is absolutely not it. Not even close.

 

[DLF]

Not worried.

team will turn it around. We are missing ariza after all.

 

[DLF]

Won’t be worried unless we start the finals 0-2
