Pick and roll defense isn’t exploited with Zubacs ass glued to the bench.

Cut Caruso and Zubac and we good

Svi no where near ready for the NBA. He should be in the G-League all season.
LAKER FAN FOR LIFE

People have talked about Svi, but Wear May be the one to sneak his way into the rotation

Caruso isn’t needed when he’s the fifth best point guard on the team behind Lebron, Lonzo, Rondo, Ingram, and Lance.

Zubac is too slow footed and easily exploited on defense with switches to play

Bong is a turnover machine. He’s like the African Sun Yue experiment.

Wagner has been fragile and gotten hurt in summer league, then in camp, and wasn’t nba strong yet anyhow so he needs d league time.

Svi is essentially Sasha right now and isn’t nba ready.

Wear is the one guy who fits what they need a bit of. He’s got some size to him. He can shoot it out to range. He can move his feet and make the switches. He knows to stay ready. He’s the one guy tailored made to fill in it Kuz, Ingram, or Beas miss time.

Lonzo looked great in the second half

I hope he start soon
I mean when I thought about LBJ last season I really liked the pairing LBJ-Ball, Lonzo doesn't need the ball to be effective, and is one of the best defenders of the team period.

Really sad that his injury sat him on the bench, Rondo is a good player yeah, but no upside, we aren't winning it all this season anyway, might as well develop our guys.
Imagine if we had sat down Ingram after his terrible rookie season lol

we're the real 2017-18 champions :lol:

Seriously though so much better its unreal. Ingram got to the line so damn much, KCP was strangely brilliant. I love Rondo's game so much, he knows he sucks offensively so he does all these other things.

Lonzo was locked down defensively, Kuz was great as well.

Does look though that the warriors need their 4th all star though or else they're in trouble, good to know even in our most base form we're capable of being a nuisance.

I was more impressed with Ingram making 15 out of those 17FTs than the FTs themselves.

Even if we disregard Lonzo’s four(!) steals, he was still our best defender yesterday.

Oh, I don't know about that... He was really aggressive and active, but the Defense Ingram was playing on KD was pretty special too... It was a toss up... Ball played great D but he gambled a bit and committed some dumb fouls. Rust... He's clearly going to be a huge part of our defense though.

Ya I thought both players defense really stood out. Man if Ingram can take that next step to being a consistently really good defender instead of just flashes of it (I thought his defense all preseason has looked really good), and if he can keep up this 80% FT shooting. Ingram might take a huge leap this year.

Ball's defense was really good, with his extra muscle I can see him becoming an even more versatile defender as well. The jumper that went down for Lonzo looked nice as well. Seems to have slightly better touch on his shot.

It was a fun game to watch... LeBron actually looks like Magic running the break at times... He doesn't pass like him, but watching him run down the court brought back some memories.
