i think they may have westbrook push the pace as much as possible in the first three quarters to lesson the load on lebron. no doubt there will be some spacing issues in the half court but they are still probably better with this trade IMO. those dudes weren't getting them anywhere anyways. its probably worth a shot.
Say what you want about Lebron, he can get all manner of knucklehead to fall in line. The only thing Lakers have to contend with is health.
I agree. I think KPJ/Green/Wood can get us to the play in games this year or the next. I really do. I think once Wall & Gordon are off the books we will be VERY attractive to free agents in 2-3 years, while still having these kids on rookie deals
He literally gets traded instantly to exactly where he wants every time 3 years in a row which is outstanding luck on his contract
For sure. People say that Lebron can talk people down and whatnot, but Westbrook is beyond reasoning. He does too much dumb **** in games that it'll cost the Lakers in important games.
follow karceno4life on youtube he has a legit plant on every team in the nba, and said russ was going to the lakers 2 months ago
Agreed, but usually the knuckleheads he plays with can at least shoot (i.e. JR Smith). The ones who can't shoot (Rondo, Lance Stephenson, etc) didn't stick around long.
does anyone else feel like teams are stonewalling daryl morey in trade discussions. The league is making it very difficult on him since the cp3 trade and the china comments. Something tells me if it was morey in charge of the harden trade, we wouldnt have gotten near the amount we got back
Lance sucks, but Rondo was the 3rd best player in that Lakers playoffs run in the bubble. I have no doubt LeBron will be able to curtail Westbrook.
Why can't Wiz put together a team of 3 way trade: LAL (Westbrook) - OKC (Schroder S&T + LAL FRP) - WSH (Kemba + Dort + Kuzma) Select Jaden Springer at #15 Starters: Kemba, Beal, Kuzma, Hachimura, Bryant Bench: Springer Dort, Avdija, Bertans, Gafford That team couldn't make the playoffs in the East??? i think they could. Not sure if they could knock off Milwaukee, but we have seen what health can do in the playoffs Their GM needs to be fired
Can't wait to see him help the Lakers lose games...but not too early in the season. I don't want Lebron to trade him at the deadline.
