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

[grittyman]

So basically make up your damn mind Frank…

 

[noblekane]

puke was just fired today

vogel next?

geno90221 you want your boy luke to come back as coach?

 

[James_O]

I swear, if we loose to the Pistons, I might have to burn my hoodie.

 

[BIG LEEMELONE]

Didn't realize Lakers have the 2nd most missed games due to injury

 

[Lizakers]

Didn't realize Lakers have the 2nd most missed games due to injury

And the most all stars lol. Seven of them. Stacked

 

[Kinfolk]

Don’t need to analyze a game like today this much.
If the lakers don’t win convincingly it’s a failure. Convincingly for this team isn’t a blow out. Just don’t get a win by coming from behind of relying on random role player x hitting 7 threes. if we lose, I hope we get absolutely embarrassed. The more embarrassing losses, the more likely they make moves

“don’t need to analyze a game like today this much”.

Proceeds To analyze it further .

They’re not losing this one. Everybody relax!

Bradley remains a starter

 

[DLF]

Bradley and Deandre in the starting lineup, both guys out of the league.

Westbrook worst “star” in nba history

that’s 3 out of 5 starters. Lol.

your 2021 lakers ladies and gentlemen

 

[grittyman]

nope

 

[BIG LEEMELONE]

AD getting pushed to the perimeter. No driving lanes for Bron and Russ

What’s with the Bradley hate?

His on ball defense is still above league average.

 

[Brosizzlew30.23]

AD weak side steal as the PF

 

[BIG LEEMELONE]

DJ turnover first play of the game

 

[tupac003]

Defense for both teams is horrible.

 

[BIG LEEMELONE]

AD has to cherry pick to get scores in the paint lol

 

[Brosizzlew30.23]

I see No lack of inside the point paints for AD with DJ in the game.

In fact when DJ is at center, he the one in bounding the ball to Bron which allows AD to go deep for the TD pass.

Nah.

He looks like he’s a good defender but gets blown by on the regular

So basically DJ needs to literally be off the court

 

[BIG LEEMELONE]

DJ in the paint getting double teamed off the ball and AD has to settle for a fadeaway. Eye test tho

I meant X’s and O’s

 

[Brosizzlew30.23]

Nope. When AD at the 5 HE THE ONE inbounding the ball and isn't able to catch TD passes from Bron.

Only way AD catching TD passes is when he playing PF cause it means DJ inbounding the ball or cleaning up the glass lol

Eye test bro

Lol, I bet we get a W with DJ starting at the 5 tonight

September 29 2021 Stever Kerr said: " Avery Bradley [is] one of the league's best on-ball defenders".

Yes the warriors cut him, but does that change what he said? I don't think so. Warriors have the best D in the league right now don't they? They have younger guys that can get the job done.

His defensive win shares aren't anything spectacular but starting him for defensive purposes isn't an instance of Vogel being blind or incompetent.
