Rob needs to prioritize D’Lo. He’s should be a keeper for us.



No matter all the negative stuff they said about our point guard D'Angelo Russell, like he's underachieved in the Playoffs, Rob Pelinka should prioritize him no matter what happens because he can still win us regular season games with his outside shooting, and we need that.

  1. Make him the first option in the regular season and playoffs, Lakers will win #18. He’s a flat out baller, show stopper, and Mr. ice all in one.

    The solution is in front of Laker nations eyes, let’s hope they implement it.

    Just hoping JJ can somehow unlock him in the playoffs. If not then he’s gotta go.

    I like DLO and what he brings in the regular season but he’s too inconsistent for us when it matters most. We’ve seen it for 2 years in a row now. There’s a reason our FO has been shopping him in for an upgrade player that will perform and be useful in the playoffs.

    we’re at that point in the cycle again? after the playoffs everyone wants him gone and then suddenly everyone loves him again

  5. Chemical-Fly-787

    He’s such a good third option for most championship calibre teams but unfortunately the team is extremely top heavy

    🤣🤣🤣 Y’all have amnesia

  7. DLo has proven to be a great regular season player.

    DLo has alos proven to be a playoff choker (multiple times.)

    You don’t prioritize keeping around a guy who needs to see a sports psychologist to work out his issues in the clutch.

    DLo will get dealt by the trade deadline for another big. No skin of my back or any other fans tired of him blowing up our chances in the post season.

    hahahaha same cycle again, look my guy, everyone knows it all here already, its been the case since Dlo is in Brooklyn

    D Lo is a winning player as a 6th man type microwave scorer on a team with good defense.

    I don’t think he’s an essential winning piece for the lakers though.

    I think we’ve seen enough games to know a dlo/reaves backcourt doesn’t not work in high stakes playoff games. So If we have to choose, I’m picking reaves.

    Dlo needs to figure out how to be useful in the playoffs. Maybe find a way to work with Rondo? Pick his brain?

  12. SlowCrates

    Ewwwwww

    When will people figure this shit out? D’Lo isn’t a basketball player. He isn’t a team player. He isn’t a winner. He isn’t consistent. Why would you want to keep him? What is going on?

    He’s been the same person his entire career: Defensive liability. Streaky shooter. Plays like craps most of the time in the playoffs. Creates some kind of drama/controversy in the locker room. I have no idea what people like about this clown.

  13. angel2timez

    I will still trade him for someone like Bruce brown. The team has more than enough offense when plays are actually ran which is something Reddick is suppose to bring to the table

  14. Here we go with the DLO glazing again from his stans 🙄

  15. I don’t understand this post. He’s signed for another year, it up to Dlo to see how his future pans out.

  16. BaullahBaullah87

    yall go outside and get some fresh air before the season plz

  17. moneylongerrr

    He can help get a couple regular season wins, playoff time when it actually matters he is useless and a liability

  18. 13WillieBeaman

    Oh, he’ll prioritize him, alright. He’ll prioritize trading him

  19. So is the goal winning a chip or not? Dlo is not a winning player he’s trash he plays for highlights

  20. OG_Gritty

    Haven’t really paid attention but is it the same person making all these DLo posts lately? Lmao if so we get it dude… seriously

  21. dollarsignwag

    Uhhhh this is basketball bro there’s no keepers on the court. Matter of fact there’s a rule against it

  22. DLo needs to be on a tanking team so he can just chuck shots in the regular season. That or a team that wants to sell tickets. He has no business on a playoff team.
