    I wonder if Darvin ham watch last season cause Russ not it with bron and ad not just turnovers …bad shots bricked layups and dunks ..throwing ball outta bounds they just starting him cause of his name

    I would start Westbrook, KNunn, Lebron James, JTAnderson, AD…. There's not a power forward in the nba can guard Lebron from the perimeter, JTA will be our 3 and D wing, who has who has shot 40% 3pt fg before, his 36% 3pt fg avg. is a lil above league average, and his hustle and defense will take pressure off Lebron defensely. Westbrook is guaranteed to have a bounce back season because he cant play as bad as last year, and playing more games with a healthy AD will allow them to gel better, so Westbrooks turnovers will decrease some..Kendrick Nunn is going to be a walking bucket and be agressive defensively against point guards, then make pg defend him on the other end. AD will be the featured offensive weapon, and anchor the defense….. PBeverly, LWalker, TBrown, AReaves, all interchangeable role players off the bench. CSwider, will take WGabriel minutes at the 4, and DJones and TBryant will back up AD at center depending on if the coach want a more defensive approach( DJones) or better offensive weapon TBryant.. If the Lakers want to go big and start a Center I'd start TBryant.

    I don’t have a problem with Russ and Nunn starting but I wish Dennis was at camp. He was playing well in Europe and we very well could have seen a Schroeder/Nunn Backcourt not Russ/Nunn.

    I think Russ will start 1st/3rd Quarters however, He will come out @ the 3/4min Mark for Schroder and Russ will play the majority of His minutes with the 2nd Group (Similar to Jrue Holiday).

    I had Walker starting @ SG but, He’s been hurt and Nunn has been Ballin’. I think Nunn/PatBev/Walker will play equal Time throughout 1-3 Quarters then, whoever has the Hot Hand on Offense & Defense will close the Game.

    Per DHam, Reaves will play @ SF – In My Opinion, He’s been put here to keep Him out that Super Competitive Guard Competition. Similar to THT, Reaves has been given to much Credit to Fast. He played a lot last Year bcuz We were Sorry. And, now We have some solid SG (Walker/Nunn/PatBev) along with our Young SG (Christie/McCoy).

    Side Note – Reaves is not a Starter on any Playoff Team in the NBA. Carushow is a better Defender & Hero is a better Shooter and they don’t even start.

    We need to play russ 😤… because he can play 70 – 78 games.. we need to find ways for him to be effective…russ shoe up night and day unlike kyrie BEN last year.. .. and hope AD and Bron can play 65 – 74 games …I'm sure will be OK

    Starters don't matter on Championship teams. It's who finishes. Beverly and Schroder will kick some A$$ defensively. I could see AD, LeBron, JTA, BEV & SCHRODER finishing tough games.

  9. Derrik Oates

    best standard defensive lineup: AD, Jones, Bron, bev, reeves
    best small ball offensive: Bron, Christie, walker, nunn, westbrook

    Likely No AD lineup: Bron, Westbrook, Nunn, Brown, Bryant
    Likely No Lebron Lineup: AD, Westbrook, Nunn, Bryant, JTA

    I don’t think ppl understand but a bench of DSJ, pat bev, JTA Thomas Bryant and whoever the 5th person is could be a very crazy 2nd unit

  14. Tk Kirkland

    Lol that's how you know a lot of these guys have no brain the media thinks for them. Russ should be a starter.

  17. HIT*STICK*STEPPER

    K nunn is pretty much replacing the role of Malik monk…I definitely see nunn having a very similar year to Monk last year 🤙🏾

  19. BIG TEE

    I really dont care who starts the game. Last year the Lakers seemed to have problems maintaining contact with teams after the half and even more so early in the fourth. I am hoping late in games Ham's attention to detail on defense and his subsitution patterns will be the difference need to get wins. I truly hope to never see Lebron at the 5 again unless its in a senior citizen game at the YMCA in 20 years.

  23. Douglas Strong

    I love your second 5 from your messages I said it 5 months ago and you also said back then Nunn is the best player fro the price love Nunn's game… Love this line up – westbricks game…

  24. BTS Dance Studio

    The key is 3 point shooting bigs. Darvin is running the Bucks championship playbook. Huff can be Bobby Portis 2.0 Would not be surprise if he gets a chance to play.

  26. Ronnie lister

    I would start Dennis Schroeder and Kendrick nun at my guards backups Westbrook and Reeves because Reeves can play defense Westbrook can't or Reese tries to play defense Westbrook don't

  28. Sharieff khalifa

    No matter who starts, Walker, should start at shooting guard, gotta have an athletic player like Walker in there!💯

    Pacers have to trade Turner and Hield because based on their off-season moves, they are trying to tank. Having Turner and Hield on the roster ensures they are a middle of the road team which hurts them.

    My prediction: the trade will happen and if the Lakers start out strong, Pacers will take one pick. If the Lakers start out slow, they will be forced to give up the two picks.

  32. mark cepeda

    russ/tust is still there soooo coach Ham may/ is trying to deal with that ..anyway Nunn is good ( healthy we hope) and if they shoot oitside reasonable well and play DEFENSE. might be a, competitive team

  36. Brian Lew

    How Westbrick and Beverley gonna be “Ride or die bros” when the Brick is gonna be traded?

  38. I am Groot!

    I have been wanting to see Nunn back on the floor and maybe finally get a look at what he can do kid has a lot of upside. I like DJ as a player just not as a starter. If he has a Christian Wood kind of level up that could be a big deal but as of now I feel the Lakers will be lucky to finish above .500
