Interesting rationale I'm inclined to agree loosely.. so that's 32 I'm thinking that the youngster improvement yileds a bit more gotta figure some actual "D" might yield a few games but they're going to have to show that skill first
Yeah I heard before the game that Vegas had the Dodgers as favorites to win it all now. Where was Vegas at the All Star break? so much for Vegas opinions
Glad MWP and Thomas Robinson made the team, need that defensive/tough attitude around a growing group. Also glad Anthony Brown was waived...gotdamn bum.
For me - Kobe, +7 wins DLo/Randle/JC improvement, +6 wins - Scott/ + Luke, +5 wins Mozzy/Deng + other WC teams taking steps back, +6 wins .500 ball, maxed out..probably should account for chemistry issues here and there, especially early with the tough schedule, but what the hell Roster is pretty rich in talent, to the point where it should be interesting to see who's D-League bound/inactive every night. I could see Luke playing all 12 or 13 guys that are suited up a lot of nights, keeping energy high defensively. Warriors always championed their depth while Luke was there, so maybe something similar is on deck for us as well? They have to grow on defense by any means. Both Mozzy and Deng should help, both have been big reasons for their former teams' playoff wins the last couple seasons, they're good for a couple a piece I think. Mozzy can really move for a big man, he tracked Durant down in a wink on that alley oop the other day, looks to be in good form, Olympics got him right
I can't realistically expect more than 30 wins. West is top heavy though. if everything goes right, we could sneak in the playoffs.
Good 1st quarter so far DLoading, LAL 3's raining Good Mozzy Randle at the 5 now, point-center, Draymond style Gotta play some damn D tho Harden on pace for 50pts and 40 assists Lol
Yeeeeeeeaaaa MFers talkin shit on Mozzy, 12pts and 6reb before half time, ballin, act like you know Awwwnaw Randle, you can't airball the fall away, bruh Randle shittin the bed Clarkson was pulled early for playing like shit, pouted like a pussy on the bench, was never put back in..1st doghouse candidate for Luke..drop the Kardashian, brother
That high energy defense seems to be missing. It's not just that they're a sieve defensively (which they are), it's that they get beat down the floor constantly.
Hope Clarkson changed his maxi pad at half time, I need to see less Huertas, will certainly never play any defense with him out there. Luke right, too much space being allowed after switches Lakers come out in a 2-3 zone defensively, gotta rebound, tough to do in a zone There we go JC MWP...the Harden stopper Lol Denzel fucks with these Lakers, havin a damn good time Lol OK get MWP out, it was fun for a minute KEEP FOULING THIS MF HARDEN! He's seriously about to do 30pts-20assists
Game been too close all the way through, I want a W Ingram looking very confident Clarkson gotta dunk on Ennis, F that Lou doin what Lou does JC is in the building Gotta keep going at Harden's non-defense playing ass, 5 fouls
