2021-2022 NBA Season

Replace him with our lord and Klayvior

West is 68-64 vs the East right now. Both conferences go 10-11 teams deep. Both have a few contenders but the ones out West sure look stronger than the ones out East right now.

I think we're premature to bury the West.

Issue with the lakers will continue to be their defense. Like basically every other team in sports they will play better at home but not going to get away with poor defensive performances on the road.

Yeah, and 36 year old Trevor Ariza isn't going to fix that.

I'm so curious to see what changes they make if this continues.

If I remember correctly, the next 1 st rounder they can trade is in 2026.

 

[Stakesarehigh]

Wtf is his problem?

Zero passion.

ZERO.

No hustle.

He's so blah.

He won his title. I guess that's that lol

Dwight Howard

 

[thunderc]

I

Did he have Covid?

I'm not even making a joke.

Some players have complained about long-term lack of energy.

Otherwise, the fuck is this guys issue?

I watched a game last year where he played 28 minutes and didn’t have a rebound. How is that possible? I decided then that he was soft.

Not a good look for the Lakers in the 2nd half. Memphis getting whatever they want

No Dillon Brooks, Anderson or Ja

He's so blah.

Poor work ethic

 

[Shanemansj13]

It won’t get easier for the Lakers too, they have the hardest remaining schedule

hard to get into the All Time Top 75 when you have had only 5 seasons of high level play.

plus- a lot of guys go for 21, 3 and 3.

Maybe only 3-4 truly high level seasons. Most of which he was the 3rd best guy on his own team. Obviously never once the best player on his own team. Even in 15'-16' Draymond was better.

pretty difficult to break into the top 75 of all time with that resume.

I know I know but I'm always gonna rep my favorite player

 

[WiggyRuss]

Dave Chappelle's Juicy Smullay routine was just so damn funny. Had to watch it again today.

 

[raptorlife4]

Dwight Howard

Jokic

 

[WiggyRuss]

Davis, LeBron, RW, all in the top 11 in the NBA in minutes played per game.

I certainly do not think that was the plan.

 

[AD2022MVP]

They have a defensive wing. He's injured

The corpse of Ariza?

 

[msgkings322]

LeBron with the 100th triple double of his career (6th all time)

 

[Stakesarehigh]

The Westbrook trade was a total disaster lol.

If I go back I think I said I didn't think they'd do that trade because it would destroy their depth. Then they did and managed to snag just about the best they could with the money they had left. And it still isn't working.

Rodman on the 75 list...not many assists or points

 

[raptorlife4]

The guy the Lakers miss the most

Caruso

 

[msgkings322]

Obviously never once the best player on his own team.

Lotta guys in the 75 list were the same: Sam Jones, Dennis Rodman, Kevin McHale, Robert Parish, Bill Sharman, James Worthy

Look I know Klay isn't there yet...he does need to put up some more good to great seasons to be seriously considered but that's not so impossible to hope for. So top 100 list he has a great shot.
