He's also 34 (tomorrow) with a player option looming in his age 37 season that may be a hindrance by then.

Which is exactly why I picked him

And people have the nerve to talk shit that teams in the NBA aren't going to try and help the Lakers get better....LOL.

Didn't the Paul Piece & KG trade lead to the Celtics getting Tatum?

Just wanna say thank you to the 76ers for drafting Fultz & thank you to the Lakers for drafting Lonzo.

At this point I would take Holiday over Tatum or Brown but Brown a close 2nd for MVP.

Sounds like kp is done for the series
Damn. Big loss.

It hurts the offense, too... but it's a bigger loss for our defense.

Who gets those minutes at the 5?

Luka would torch Luke Kornet in pick'n'roll situations... and Xavier Tillman may only be a marginally better option than Kornet.

Both Kornet and Tillman limit the C's on offense, too.

Go small when Horford is out.

Don’t play a 5 at all.

Switchability is more important than size on the bigs against Dallas.

I tend to agree with you... it looked like Dallas was starting to figure out that Gafford has potential to get easy shots against the likes of Tatum in the last game, though.

Still, probably better to force Gafford to beat you then to hope Luka doesn't victimize guys like Kornet and Tillman.
