how many 35 year old guys do you know that no one signs for a year and then come back?
he is a solid veteran presence- and he can still score- but I certainly would not want him as my 4th best player at the age of 37, basically useless on defense and only playing over 25 minutes a game if something goes terribly wrong.
right. Its one of the craziest things- any type of nuance is interpreted as a personal shot and that I think the player sucks and is worthless. Sometimes I wonder if people read the posts.
But also…you’re a Homer and there’s no integrity to any opinion you express when it comes to the Lakers. It’s a gamble to project that a 37 year old guy is going to maintain a level of play that he had in Portland. Melo’s liability as a defender is not going to be seen on a roster with Dame McCollum and others who are shitty defenders. The offense has 3 or 4 plus matchups to exploit against that group. But when you play him with RW LeBron and Brow it becomes pretty damn clear who the offense is gonna target to exploit. Vogel will become quickly frustrated with Melo’s game. Come playoff time he will be reduced to being a bench guy that plays against 2nd units. The Lakers will be working the phones at the deadlines to address what looks like a piece meal very incomplete roster that doesn’t fit Vogel ball.
honestly- id much rather have Schroeder and Hield.
honestly i think its probably howard. He is still pretty consistent.
Every single game he tried to play with the Thunder

When was he out of basketball?
That was my point.....the last 2 years in Portland he turned into a really good outside shooter......on the Lakers the looks will be even better with AD, James and RW.
