The Lakers dominating the Wolves.
Are we a better team without Ball?
Hard to say at this point.
There are things Lonzo can do that the other guys can't, but he is a liability shooting wise and in that respect the team is better without him as the other team has to respect all the shooters on the floor. This creates alot of open looks when the guys move the ball around.
Zubac definitely needs more minutes.
How did Luke not give him more PT with the,way he was playing tonight ( 19 pts and 11 boards in 20 mins )?
Now that the trade has settled, comparisons abound. My fear about that trade was the disruption in team chemistry and since its completion, we appear to have taken a step backwards because of a number of problems already stated. Meanwhile in Cleveland... ...things are looking very good indeed.
Lets see. Since the trade, 3 losses, lapsing D, bad rotations. Hmmm....

I agree with you except locker room. Clarkson was complaining and pouting about not being a starter at times.That was my concern about the trade Retro.
There is something to be said about team chemistry, and when it's working you don't mess with it, and with Cleveland, it wasn't working so you blow it up and bam, whole new team.
I know it's only a 3 game sample size, but which team do you think LeBron would rather play for
now?
He is rejuvenated and having fun again.
And all the arguments about how Clarkson and Nance are replaceable players, you can replace their production, but not necessarily their locker room presence. Those things can't be underestimated and they were by the FO.

Cant wait for second half of season. I expect 10-12 more wins.
Ok I thought it was at the halfway mark lol. 12 of 25 might be difficult.Why can't the all-star game actually be at the midpoint of the season? The Lakers only have 25 games left lol. The Wolves only have 21! So weird...especially with the Lakers being the team on the back-to-back just before the break.
