Just saw an interesting stat. Joel Embiid is the only 1st round pick of the 2014 NBA draft to make an All-Star team. Jokic was a 2nd rounder.

Going back to 2000, the closest draft in futility is 2000 which only had 2 All-Stars.

That first round was bad. Only see 3 or 4 guys that can eventually make it

Javale
Boogie
Dwight
AD
Lebron

lineup

They'll give up fifty 3's a night but aint nobody going to score in the paint.

I know you are joking, but in reality that lineup would give up a lot in the paint.

Because they would get stretched, driven past, and over helping leads to open shots at all 3 levels.

Dwight is basically a better version of Javale o I would give Cousins his Javale minutes and start Dwight

They could use Kuzma more behind Lebron and use Boogie at backup 4 behind AD. Gives Lebron and AD a bit more rest than projected. In addition to using AD or Boogie at C at times. Depends on the matchup.

Well shit
We needed him.

Beverley is gimp a lot and he's not a playmaker.

Putting Lou in the starting lineup neutralizes our 2nd best Weapon.

We still have one more open roster spot.

Hope a guy like Biyombo shakes loose.

Good win last week.

Tatum is a savage and Kemba is everything Kyrie was supposed to be.

You can have Boogie in exchange for Lou Will.

In 2016 that would have been a great deal.

What is the Lakers front office doing?

It's one thing not to make trades, you have to have assets for that to happen.

But, buyout guys?

Maybe they are waiting for a guy that is still negotiating?

Reggie has horrible efficiency and has never even sniffed being a top 10 pg.

But, he's buyout Season gold.

How did they let the Clippers get him?

I'm starting to believe current agents really do hate Rob Pelinka.

A lot of reasons I've seen on twitter is because they don't want to hurt their chemistry.

I heard last week that the Nets are above .500 without Kyrie & below .500 with him. Now that's funny.

...and that's valid.

But, you are going to have issues every time LeBron sits down.

That has to be addressed.

He can't play 40 mins every playoff game.

Yep. Which is what myself, and probably a lot of other Lakers fans are worried about too.
