Wait til this guy regresses to the mean. 56/68 shooting incoming.

Serious post:

When you guys feel down. When you guys feel hurt. Every loss. Every bad play. Just remember one thing…

Jeanie saved 30 million dollars. Be happy she’s happy. That’s just as important as a lakers win in in my books.

 

[Hijo Del Promo]

Wow, its gonna be great when Lakers end 69-13, to tie the Lakers all-time mark.

Everyone knows a title team has players like monk melo and Ellington in heavy rotation

Lol bro this was funny.

Crazy how skilled Kobe was, watching these Russ and Lebron air balls and missing the rim by 3 feet on pull ups and step through j’s

Kobe was so amazing. Full speed bank shots. Step through. He was Legend.

I’ve always been on the “keep the young core” train, it seems like every time a young player leaves us, they start to flourish (Ingram, Zo, Kuz, etc.)

I’ve always hated building superstar teams, **** hardly if ever works out

 

[kobeoverbron]

you mean letting go of our young core/top picks for half an old folks home is a bad idea?

I was 1000% in favor of the AD trade. That young core was never going to achieve anything and eventually, it would have just become a very expensive seven seed. At the very least we won a championship.

I think just about every move since the 2020 title has been bad, culminating in the terrible Russell Westbrook trade.

Westbrooks shortcomings as a player are only part of the problem. The other issue is that we gave away a draft The other issue is that we gave away a first round draft pick and three rotation players and replace them with veteran minimum guys.

Lol

I've already adjusted my expectations for us to be a .500 , similar to the year with LeBron and the young core. That team wasn't very good but at least they played hard. This team doesn't play hard and they look miserable playing together.

 

[kobeoverbron]

we never needed Russ that's why going for him never made sense to me.
Last year's team minus Russ plus the shooters is all we needed (even during
the bubble title run).

I don't get why we had to spend cash on a 33y/o Russ like the past 3 seasons
didn't happen.

Remember guys...everything is fine.

2 games out of the 4 seed. We are right there.

More than a qtr of the season has been played.

Our guys are just coasting.

We aren't even healthy man. Nunn and Ariza are game changers.

It's December 10th...don't lose hope.
