Buyout market

Unless he completely changes who he is as a player, this might make them worse. Drummond sucks.

Ok pal

I think the main story with the Lakers is Anthony Davis. The "calf strain" he's dealing with is the same injury that's kept Kevin Love out all season and Dante Exum out for the past 3 months. At this point, Davis isn't putting much pressure on his calf. He's not doing much real running or cutting, and he's not close to being cleared for contact.

That "calf strain" often involves the achillies tendon which takes a long time to heal because of a lack of blood flow to the area.

I don't know, if you cut off someone foot at the ankle there's a lot of blood.



I mean, you know, so I've heard.

not too concerned with Drummond. Basically a glorified version of Javale Mcgee who thinks of himself as the modern era Olajuwon everytime he touches the ball. his low basketball IQ is only gonna hurt the Lakers in the playoffs

Drummond is a good player. He's an all-star and he will make the Lakers better.

Imagine where the Jazz might be at, if some of the buyout free agents had fallen our way. Take our roster, but mix in Andre Drummond, LaMarcus Aldridge and Austin Rivers.

We'd be the favorites. Oh well, I guess we'll have to go in and beat everybody as underdogs. More than that way.

Drummond would never have sniffed an all star honor if he was in the Western Conference. Half of the Eastern all-stars for the last 20 years should have an asterisk.

All 3 of those dudes make the Jazz worse.

Favors/Drummond is probably a wash, but you give the advantage to Favors because of familiarity.

Niang is better than LMA this year.

*Im not going to respond to the Austin Rivers one*

Nah, he's probably going to help the Lakers. Lebron is going to make sure Drummond limits his freelance plays and Vogel is a very good defensive coach. It will probably be a good addition for the Lakers. Drummond is highly overrated by casuals who look at stats, but he can definitely help a team if he's playing within himself.

Still remember that year when Derozan was named the All-star starter in the East then next year when he moved West, he couldn't even make the reserve list.

It's a joke they still have equal number of all stars between two conferences even though the league acknowledge the talent disparity themselves by making it the captain's pick as opposed to the traditional East vs West format cuz everyone knew that the East would just get destroyed.
