Still hurt please sit him

He's been deer in the headlights since his return. The pressure on his shoulders to get them in the playoffs has taken its toll & it looks like he folds at times mentally during games. Scary if you're a Laker fan

BI had 32/6/4 on 18 shots, and is avergaing 30 ppg sicne the break
Kuz had 22.

LA's young guys aren't the problem, it's the vets. Rondo, McGee, Chandler, KCP all look like trash. Musclala has done nothing too. Only guy who looked ok was Bullock. Meanwhile, AD isn't looking too good in NO.

Brandon Ingram is playing like a stud and definitely improving his trade value.

Trade this overrated Lebron who is concern at making his fg% good. When he already has a good stat, most of the time, he will not try to be aggressive anymore as it might hurt his fg%. His defense is also terrible. Lebron even admitted that he won't take half court end of quarter shot because if it miss, it will hurt his fg%.

Let's see. Woj tweeted in January 28th. Here's the RealGM thread about it -> viewtopic.php?f=6&t=1796353&hilit=Anthony+Davis

The game had a game against the Suns that day. According to the time stamps on the Game Thread in the Lakers forum, that game preceded AD's announcement -> viewtopic.php?f=19&t=1796131&start=20

The Lakers were 26-24 after that win against Phoenix. They are 29-31 right now. So, their record since the announcement has been 3-7. They beat the Clippers in OT, the Celtics with Rondo's buzzer beater and the Rockets with a comeback. They have lost to the Sixers twice, the Warriors, the Pacers, the Hawks, the Pelicans (without AD) and now the Grizzlies.

AD had a decent stat line tonight but the team was losing by 10 most of the time he played.

He got benched for the 4th and the rest of the team finished up losing by 1.

LeBron doesn't look the same, but he isn't the first player to struggle after a groin injury. I would say give him some more time, but it's time the Lakers playoff hopes can't afford.

i dont get this. Kuzma and ingram are both playing well right now and shooting efficiently....

rondo/kcp/mcgee have been absolutely terrible. Chandler, hard to blame him as he is quite old.

I think they miss his defense more than anything. Lakers went from a fair decent defensive team to an absolutely atrocious one recently

LeonGenesis · Post #39 » by **LeonGenesis** » Tue Feb 26, 2019 4:07 am

Lakers need Lonzo..ahahah....it's amazing there are people who thinks Lonzo can help the team. The fact is that Lonzo is a PG who can't shoot...he might as well be a ball boy

Let's face it...the players suck...and GM Lebron is old and hurt....

It just seems the team is playing for the name on the back of the jersey since the AD trade rumors.
