    Just one, maybe two. But both of their dumb asses will likely be parked on the bench coming down the stretch of games..Kuz as well, potentially. Inexperience. Sounds like Kuz took a step forward defensively with the USA squad, but I want to see it

    When it's really winning time I can see a lineup of AD/LeBron/Green/Bradley. 5th wheel is up in the air, but Cook probably fits best unless they just embrace Caruso's excellence. Hoping that Rondo not starting is an indication that they're not even going to start down that path where they're closing games with him on the floor. Rondo's minutes w/LeBron should be minimal..think we all saw that

    Like you, I'll believe Kuzma as a quality defender when I see it. There's really no excuse for a player with his athletic ability to be a shitty (or indifferent) defender.

    Coaching staff is definitely stacked with quality defensive minds and developmental guys, so hopefully that'll help.

    Having a few guys with shot blocking presence could help some too, maybe bring about a little more aggressiveness on ball and in the passing lanes. Artest said Kuz sought him out for pointers, so it sounds like he's trying and maybe they made it clear that if he doesn't pull it together defensively, then there's no way he can play as much as he'd like to

    Rich Paul claims Bucks would have made NBA Finals if they swapped Giannis Antetokounmpo for Anthony Davis

    https://clutchpoints.com/lakers-new...-swapped-giannis-antetokounmpo-anthony-davis/










    Have to agree with Paul on this one. Giannis couldn't shoot and AD can. That simple. However, we're trying to pair Giannis with AD and maybe LeBron as well in a couple years, so can we not troll Giannis? Seems like a reasonable ask.

    From what I know, Giannis and AD have a good relationship. AD is the only star that Giannis has tried to recruit to Milwaukee. Hopefully, this doesn't push Giannis away from LAL and just makes him work harder to improve his shot. He's going to need it because if Simmons is now shooting, Milwaukee is going to have hell with Philly

    Watched the Pelllys preseason game, and feeling good about the AD trade.

    Ball still can't shoot and BI looks like an emaciated Carmelo Anthony.

    Have seen Norvell make some big shots. Obviously, just a preseason game, but he did it in college and in the summer league too. Lakers may have something here

    Lefty with a shot and little playmaking ability. Wouldn't mind having another Fish.

    Watching the Pels and Jazz, forgot Joel Myers was the play by play guy for the Pels. Pels truly have all the Laker rejects Lol
