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

Have you seen him do any of this at all this series? He hasn’t been guarded by Joker the complete time..probably not even most of the time if we keeping it 100.

He’s played 3 games, let’s just say about 100 minutes total and hasn’t grabbed a single rebound and has 2 assists. I mean to give a little context Austin has played similar minutes (a few more to be fair) but has 4 offensive rebounds. And no offense but, well hey we know his physical limitations….
No, I haven't been seeing him do it at all this series. He's getting crushed on the boards. I wrote a paragraph digging into him underperforming, your preaching to the choir. He's the 4th highest paid player on the team, and not living up to the contract. You asked what he's good at..

he's good at abusing guards in post-up situations offensively. It's either Rui or AD on Jokic 90%+ of the time. He can't abuse AG or MPJ and with the small ball lineups he doesn't get many switches onto KCP/Murray.
 
Who was the ONE guy that fought til the very end last night and didn’t quit? Who was damn near crying on Handy’s shoulder cuz he cares so much? You keep that guy.

Everyone has shortcomings and flaws, 98% of the league can’t guard. Talk about his lack of athleticism and his bad individual defense (even though he tries his little heart out :lol:)

But there is value in having a guy with hustle, heart, effort, passion

Oh, next season?
- Ham starts next season.
- Doesn't make it to Tgiving, maybe not Halloween.
- We're still a play-in team.
- Next coach? "What's with these goofy rotations? USE THE TIMEOUTS! What kind of play was that?!"
- Pelinka continues getting VERY expensive haircuts (my cousin does his hair).

tell your cousin to hold his hair hostage unless he makes some changes
