That was the joke. I’m like Kahwi: a Fun Guy™
 
wow that is terrible take. Lakers are a joke and if we are to be taken " as seriously as Lakers" then we suck as well.
You're just a bad take factory lol. Lakers were a joke, LeBron and AD alone make that team legit. Come on man.
 
that bench needs a major upgrade now. jae for all his chucking would at least be willing to take 3's or attempt to be a threat, korver not much needs to be said about his 3 pt prowess, allen was really developing end of this year showing that he can not just shoot but be a creator and heat up quickly. now there's exum, royce, and niang as main offensive threats off the bench unless i also include raul who will again barely play unless (when) X eventually goes down. major bleh. royce can't dribble or create [edited] and only takes absolutely wide open shots or dunks (he only shot 4 FGA per game and averaged less points than allen this season), X can penetrate but can't finish, is injury prone, and can't shoot for [edited]. niang is probably the best bench offensive player now which is scary. they definitely have to have more moves coming otherwise the starters are going to get run into the ground.

We struggled against Houston because we only had one guy who could create for himself.

In 3 out of 4 losses Rudy had worst +/- numbers by far on our team. In our lonely win by 16 he was only +2 and played least minutes in any of 5 games and we won mostly to making a run when Favors was on the floor at 5.... If you people do not see the obvious I have nothing else to say.
 
Basically, if all were healthy, this would be our playoff rotation:

Conley
Mitchell
Ingles
Favors
Gobert

Exum
O'Neale
Niang
Bradley
Neto

No doubt that second unit is not up to par and needs some chlorine. Hoping we can try and add a couple solid vets to get ten deep and in a good position for a run.
Eh. In the playoffs I think they should try to shorten the rotation to 8 or 9 anyways. Play your best players more than you do in the regular season

We struggled against Houston because we only had one guy who could create for himself. Conley doubles that number. It's going to make a huge difference. And you're just wrong about not getting open looks, they were there but Ricky and Joe weren't knocking them down.

allen by end of season (and even before that, he just wasn't finishing as well until he got more comfortable) was our second best creator, but got no good burn b/c snyder understandably still had reservations trusting his defense.

Good points. We aren't in FA or even the Draft yet, so there should be more moves.
 
7 deep now, with guys like Neto/Niang playable at the end of a rotation. Really just need 1 more guy. Hope we can get them on the MLE, but every team hopes that.

Could see buying into the early 2nd from either ATL or PHI (please Grant Williams drop).
I don't think we have the MLE

Did you check the rest of their rooster? They have Kuzma. That's its. No other NBA quality players. Lebron is getting older. AD can't stay healthy. I doubt they will make playoffs again. I said that last year and some of you idiots were placing Lakers at 2-4 seeds before season.

If rookie Grayson Allen is your second best creator you've got problems lol. Thankfully that's been addressed.
 
Jazz need to add Ingles backup and eventual replacement and keep getting younger and faster.

2 players to look at :
6'8" SF) Josh Jackson 22 y o
6'8" SG-SF-PF) Mario Hezonja 24 y o

LeBron is getting older, but he was still playing great before he got hurt and he was an Ironman before then and the Lakers aren't done building their roster.

agreed, i'm just still dumbfounded that he got let go on a cheap rookie deal while showing alot of growth yet X still has some massive value for lindsey and zanik after all these years. should've completed the trade during the season.
 
What warps my mind is the idiots who claim LBJ is a spring chicken at 35, but conley at 31 is old...conley is one year older than KD and curry

Oh and hes younger than lowry and horford
