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

[BIG LEEMELONE]

It's not really based off 6 games. He's been projected to get these kinda numbers all year, he's just now been getting the minutes.

Whip is gone. Nobody else is even coming at dude like that anymore. Got dudes fabricating up stuff now to justify their hyperbole. And for what? His first couple weeks of playing consistently. Maaaaan. Funny stuff.

Seen whip post in the niners thread I frequent. Bet money he got banned from this thread. But he wasn't the only one trying to ship Dlo out daily.

He doesn't easily project to be over anything. Especially when he gets moved off ball. Although if he becomes our Booker it'd be beneficial.

Still hating

 

[MVP]

Not hate objectivity. Kid can play. But let him at least do it consistently when which has been his issue since coming into the league for more than a 2 week period before crowning him champion of the world. Half a season at the very least. Being our Booker in the sense of just having to really focus on scoring which is by far D'Lo's best asset right now is hating?

Again I'll ask what has he done to warrant this level of standom. KAT is an actual transcendent talent and he don't have a damn hive caping for him like this. For a dude who whined constantly about Kobe stans this is delicious irony.

 

[BIG LEEMELONE]

Dude is obsessed with Booker

My parents never fought in front of me, so this is what it must feel like.

Louder for the people in the back.
Remember when we were using his per 36 numbers to point to his potential but people didn't wanna listen?

I do agree that he's playing much better after the all star break / Lou's deparature. He's definitely looking like he has a point to prove and that he wants to show everyone who's team this is. Wouldn't doubt that his dad talked to him about Magic being the new boss and lighting a fire under his ***.

But honestly these type of games have been easy to project for Dlo. It's always been a matter of him getting the minutes. The per 36 numbers from the first half to 2nd half haven't even changed that much. His stats are better cuz he's getting 6-8 more minutes now.

 

[laker4lifeman]

Too many Stans

 

[BIG LEEMELONE]

sohi 23 true but even with per 36 aside, he's put up these kinda numbers in games where he's had 30+ minutes. But once people find their bias they turn blind in both eyes and infatuated with less versatile players

 

[jab step]

I really think Russell gets traded and flourishes somewhere else.

Everyone can be happy then.

 

[Maximus Meridius]

Man ya'll love talking in circles.

I don't care what side someone is on, that line was funny on a message board.

Zubac back to the D-league life

 

[noblekane]

what??

 

[MVP]

Zubac back to the D-league life

He was too good last night and the difference in the game. This is actively trying to tank moves.

 

[sohi 23]

Yeah the 6ers game is very winnable. Need to give Moz & Ennis minutes and quit ******* around. The win was nice cuz it's been a month without one but its crunch time for this tank. We need the 2nd worst spot.

 

[wavycrocket]

Only wavycrockett and whip said that if I remember

Funny how both haven't posted in here since the trade deadline

I been lurking....I've acknowledged Dlos success lately (and stat padding[emoji]128527[/emoji]) in the NBA thread .

I'm sting inthe rafters baby. Marathon....not a sprint.

Wavy, u a good dude. I rock with you

...

Not a fan of plus/minus in basketball, but Nwaba is a plus 48 in 42 minutes of PT. Sign him up already.

Big fan of Nwaba. Brewer is playing well too.

We have a lot of offensive talent, we need guys that will make the hustle plays.

Nwaba and Brewer forced a bunch of turnovers that led to easy fast break points. We need guys like that going forward.

 

[sohi 23]

Yeah it's the one thing I think we failed to include in the 2011-2014 rosters. No athletes who's sole purpose was to defend and finish fast breaks.

Brewer is a good role model to the youngins for playing hard but I'd rather Nwaba take his minutes. We already know Brewer is trash. Nwaba can still develop. If he works on that shot and can develop that 3 to become reliable on the corner. WATCH OUT.

[had pants]

 

[noblekane]

we shoulda sat the starters yesterday.

had we lost we woulda been 3 games up on the buns

now only one game seperates us and the buns and the last two games the buns have tanked on purpose

 

[kingjaffejo]

Booker?! Hahahah whaaaaa
Why would 1 try to pigeon hole DLo to Booker status.
Man Booker looks so good cuz he is only asked to do one thing. His only skill to score. But yea man I guess
