Dumb ass post

Randle doesn't spread the floor and holds the ball too much


which is the reason why i thing he'll thrive in Nola. When he gets the ball its likely be 1 on 1 and not much attention will be place to, him like it will be paid to AD

Yeah, with the right team it will work. AD can shoot the three and doesn't need the ball. But with Lebron, Lonzo, Brandon and Rondo it would be a bad mix.

He plays Melo ball the way he takes so long to get position down low, because he doesn't have a consistent jumper or three.

Y’all seen the first take with magic on there???

He talmbout tatum a bad boy like he didn’t have the chance to draft him over ball

Could u imagine if we ha Tatum instead of ball?

SHOWTIME IS BACK. Since 1991

Then who would be the point, because they were trying to get rid of Russell. :hmm:

And they already had Ingram and were planning to get Lebron.

Worry about who the Bull are going to get in the lottery this year

Ingles for whatever reason can score when Durant is on him I dont get it lol
it's just how it is I guess.

one thing to look out for I REALLY think the bigs are going to be WAY WAY WAY WAY WAY better this year and I'm not even including cousins.
Jones is a better younger version of McGee and Looney proved that last year was no fluke
then bell
then you add in boogie
Jones is such an underrated player to those who don't know. It's impressive how your squad can swap out any big and get instant and consistent results. When Jones got in that foul trouble, Looney came in and didn't miss a beat. Bell can do the same thing, but seems a little undersized.

right and him taking up that amount of money and maybe not fit would've been bad for the development of the chemistry and future

yea that the only thing i see a problem with bell, at times it seem like dude is 6'7.....while sometimes he seem to play bigger, like 7'0 type big....
its just the result of the situation he be in that have me puzzled

I think the system plays a key in it too. Last year yall didn't have the people to play at the pace you guys are playing at now or trying to. Nola has the people in place to play in this pace. So it's like he needs an offense that's supposed to be quick it forces him to be quick I think he'd do good with you guys this year because the offense is changed because Lebron wants to play faster and run. When Randle was shining with you guys at first it was when you guys were running and gunning then when the pace slowed because no guard to make the pace flow he ended up being the full time guard....which isn't his lane and then from there ball being hurt and everything the pace dramatically slowed which made his game not a match for the offense.

Well cause they have simple responsibilities not to diminish them but they know what they need to do. Guard and get open they'll get the ball. It makes it easy as shit when you know for a fact you can rim run and get layups and dunks and there's no pressure zaza and them just weren't athletic enough to play with pace and they couldn't switch. Looney is the best big switch onto perimeter guy in the league. He ain't the best anything in the league other than that. When you put him in the pick and roll with a guard his defense is impeccable and he forces them into bad shots.
Jones is an athletic freak he's raw big paws on a puppy but you see what he'll be able to do just watch all this starting right now is going to help him then think about in a few months someone with this talent gonna be coming off the bench cause boogie cousins will be starting

i know people don't believe it but watch when the shot isn't falling on some nights instead of durant on the high post trying to get a bucket its just gonna get tossed down in the paint to boogie...where he'll be 1 on 1 cause you can't double him and leave steph klay or durant open.
lave green if you want to then he'll make the next pass to someone open.

Truly the worst scenario for the rest of the league :lol:. This is some ALL TIME shit.

He wasn't going to accept a one year deal from the Lakers

Then he found out the market wasn't that great for him

He would have had to wait until after Lebron signed to get an offer and he wasn't waiting around

Worry about Chicago
Everybody in the fucking world knew he was coming to LA

He’s gonna gat paid regardless

Doesn’t matter

Coulda took Tatum and he was available.

Ingram and Tatum are too different players on the court.

That team and organization needs a purge.

We are gonna be a top 4 seed this year in the west easily.

This is what the Benson family wanted when they brought in Alvin Gentry, fast paced, high scoring, easy to digest basketball that a football loving city can eat up, just a look a while for it to happen.

Yeah, so when I was making comments about it the whole year I was just one of many. :rolleyes:

Dudes on BGOL were in denial up until a day or so before he signed. There was even a thread about where he should go, no one even mentioned the Lakers. :lol: It was "stay in Cleveland", " go to Houston", "go to Philly".

I didnt think Philly cause Simmons and them
Houston didn't have money for him imo

I didn't call the Lakers but I didn't rule them out either
I didn't see him going back to the Cavs tho at all.

Watch Kuzma and Beasley get mollywhopped in the post trying to play the 5. We got out rebounded by a team of jump shooting happy ninjas. The new cac center is soft and Zubac is too fucking slow. Unless the Lakers get AD, KL or KD then letting him walk for nothing was foolish.

I wish some of you bandwagon complaining muthafuckas would go to another team

Go like Golden State then muthafucka if you want perfection.

Go play NBA2K and build your own fuckin team

How the fuck you barely beat the sorry ass Magic and keep starting sorry ass Fultz but keep my teams name in your mouth. :smh:

What's wrong with the big doofus again?

And that's a little disrespectful to be resting him against a supposed playoff team

It will be interesting to see what Charlotte does with Kemba

Frank for the Knicks stinks

and Lance sorry ass Thomas shouldn't be in the NBA

Got damn. They’re already resting muthafuckas?:angry:

I love that call that impedes offensive player movement. Shuffle your feet and play defense, don't hold...

This Rockets Lakers game is good. Neither team wants to start 0-2 and it's showing.

Lakers got a lot of young pieces around James... I don't see all of them there at the end of the year... They can't depend on free agency alone to get better...

I find the whole Fultz thing embarrassing and sad. They're trying to build up his confidence. I hate to say it, but Im ready to label him a bust. Good/Great players don't need to be coddled the way Fultz is. Good/Great players arent timid or scared to shoot. Fultz has the athletic ability, but lacks heart. You can't teach heart. You cant teach someone to have the killer gene. Taytum has that gene. Fultz doesnt.

Im rooting for the youngin because the Sixers are my squad and we need him to play great before the Sixers can even think about beating the Celtics....but Im starting to lose faith. :(

I don't get that

You're supposed to earn minutes not be handed it. The team plays better with ReDICK. It's pretty obvious to everyone. I'm sure Fultz knows it.

You're going to kill his confidence the way they're doing it. Because as he holds the team back they're going to have to cut his minutes back more and more as the season goes along.

Just have him come off the bench. They way they have it is everyone is watching him and there's more pressure because he is starting.
