I was just playing last year's 2k and tried to trade Tristan Thompson and Rui for him and the game refused. It's crazy we got him this year for the vet min.
As much as we want HollyWood to start, he just can’t but a great 6man… we can’t leave bron on the wing to defend so it’s vando or rui..maybe til Hollywood takes it
Rui should start & last 12 minutes of game bc HE EARNED IT
AD should play the 5 in the last 12 minutes of games & 15 minutes @ the #4 PF. H AD SHALL miss 22 – 27 games this year which leaves plenty of time available for Jaxson Hayes @ the #5 & Rui & Woods @ the #4 with Castleton filling in @#5 & #4

Sign Syan " THE MAN" Johnson #15 as your perimeter Defensive dog & chaser & 3&D BIG WING whoch is pur weak spot 😇
Offensively I can see the Lakers being one of the better offenses in the league with the addition of CW but defensively is obviously the area we know he lacks in is his defensive ability or lack of effort but we have AD (if healthy) who is one of if not the best defenders in the league coming to help contest anything in the paint, Lebron defensively is great for a 40 year old, Vando is an elite defender who can play 1-4, Rui and AR are good defenders and where they lack they make up for in effort. CW just needs to box out, get big, contest anything in the paint, and play smart and we should be good… easier said than done though sadly 😢
Though he's more of an offensive guy, I see Wood as a substitute for AD. His defense is lacking but he does block shots occasionally. AD had played only 66% of the time so there's plenty of time for Wood to share the stage on the other 33%.
I love rui but just not in the starting lineup man. We have enough offensive fire power in Dlo, Reaves, Bron and AD. Vando or even Prince really add more balance to the lineup
The coaching stuff should try putting wood in the center position for the first five games. And if it turns out great then great if it doesn’t we have more line ups to try.

What type of production should the Los Angeles Lakers expect from Christian Wood?
Throw Wood at the bigger C of the league like embid or Joker so AD can play satellite defense
Sign Dwight

It will be an interesting unfolding usage of these new acquisitions.
Your voice is very nice & smooth. Thank you.

I think he's going to surprise some people.

If wood would commit to defense. Its over
Off the bench 💯 Second unit he will shine until he can show us he deserves to play along side of 1st unit 💯

AD has a 7’6 wingspan my friend
ADs not going to play C for most of the season no way, he’s going to be in street clothes
Just wanna know wtf is going on with hayes now
! Lakers Are Loaded !
