  1. I would love for them moving forward to not fall way behind and come back to win cuz my heart can't take it lol

  2. I'm now posting this on multiple Laker youtube channels this needs to get out 🙂

    There Is no consistent 3rd player, until Lakers trade for a 3rd star player while having Queen Bron and Soft AD there will never be a 3rd consistent player … Now I love everyone out side of AD and Bron because I'm a hater and yes I'm saying and have said this from the start never wanted Bron/AD …

    Game to game there will be a different 3rd player Lakers have – Reaves, DLO, Rui, Vando, Max, Wood ETC, Etc…

    who all can be a 3rd star player … But neither are consistent enough on a game to game basis.

    "IMO" I think lakers need to make a trade that Includes Trae Young that doesn't Include AD/Reaves Post Bron …

    Trea Young gives you "Kobe Like Numbers" 20+5+5 on a regular basis … Lakers "IMO" need to go all In on T.Young that doesn't Include AD/Reaves Post Bron…

    Now a lot of you are gonna say Trae Young Is a liability on Defense, but isn't DLO??? Like WTF and who Is better Young/Dlo??? Prove me wrong.

    I would go as far as offering Atlanta

    Lakers out; Dlo, Rui, Vando, + a couple pics whether 2nd or 1st round for

    Atlanta out: Trae Young … Yes Trae Young

    This Is post Bron I'm talking about…

    Now a lot of you gonna say this about each player

    Vando; Our best on ball defense player, pfft he can't score It's that simple you either get a scorer or defensive player

    Rui; You either get a Scorer or no defense or very little

    Dlo; Let's be real with Dlo he gonna be trade bait for LEGM come trade deadline

    Pic; have Lakers really cared or held onto pics In the long run? like really who cares about pics.

    So IMO you get …. Trae Young who averages 20, 5,5 roughly on a game to game basis rather then Inconsistent 3rd players you get a consistent 3rd player In Trae Young

    Go all In on Trae Young when you can 🙂

    IMO

  3. They've been lukewarm thus far but are slowly coming around which is expected. Their overtime wins have been impressive wins ever thought the box scores would not agree.

    All I can say is that when they ask her back to firm and are insync with each other they are going to be scary good.

    Give them another 5 out 6 games and they should be dominating by then.

  4. People should really stay away from the so called NBA Analyst saying Lebron's high usage will be a major factor for injuries. Any high usage player's team adjust on their practice hours for especially for the superstars. If they play 4-8 hrs a day, of course the team will only let the player practice for 2 hours or take the day off. This will help reduce risk for injury.

  5. Never doubted this team, only the coach lol. Almost sold the game away again yesterday. The big line up was working and he decided to go small again leading to easy drives from PG and Westbrook which led to their comeback. Good thing he put Wood back in overtime. Hopefully he realizes just how good those big lineups are.

  6. Man, I am with you. I have been asking for Christie to play more for the EXACT REASON YOU NAMED. 9 deflections? when I say Christie may not be a great 1 on 1 defender but he is a great TEAM defender, a lot like Reaves, this is what I mean. He is also a GREAT ROBOUNDER. There is just something I love about a young guy coming in and inspiring others to hustle and be ACTIVE. Christie is also an excellent rebounder which goes back to being active

    Cam did do his thing in this game against elite offensive players so we have to give him major props. I just don't like his offense. If we can use him primarily as a defender and limit his shots to only take open shots then I can live with him getting minutes against certain teams over Christie.

    Not sure what will happen when Vando is back because Vando does what he is doing but better and shoots better. Vando is like Cam and Christie combined in terms of great defense, length, active and can shoot

  7. Cam Reddish was good on defense and that’s what we Lakers need more defense from Cam than offense, but if Cam got his 3’s in the basket that would be great.

  8. man, sure hope the training staff can get the players squared away with the injuries. need to save some of LBJ's minutes for the playoffs.

  9. with all those injuries…its time to look at the staff that is in charge of physical for the lakers..it seems i see more injuries from this team more then any other ..im not sure why this is but maybe we need to look at that particular staff in charge of physical training…

  10. Easy too many folks getting hurt right now. Austin really needs to to get his shot back to dropping!

  11. Cam Reddish is Coach Ham's choice so he didn't need to be a Laker fanbase favorite going into the new season. 😄😄😄 Now like "Johnny Come Lately," now the fanbase is on Reddish's jock.
