The Los Angeles Lakers 2023-2024 NBA season

DEAD....

LMAO.

Ham needs to move either Russell or Reaves to the bench.

They have struggled to play together this season.

They both need the ball in their hands.....

DRus is shooting way better than Reaves. So who would you start in place of Reaves because Vincent ain't going to be much better?

 

[Retroram52]

And the road trip ass-whippins continue as the Lakers are down by 10 to the Suns in the Second Quarter!

Looks like starting Reddish next to Russell was the smart move by Ham. Reddish was on fire from deep and while KD managed to score 38....Reddish made him work for it and played solid defense on him.

I bet Russell is starting so they can build up his trade value and he gets dealt by the deadline and Reaves is back in the starting lineup.

Well Ham loves Reddish as a big guard and he played well last night.

Vincent won't continue to shoot as badly as he is. 7% on treys? He will find his groove.

Good win. The Lakers really should keep DRus. Starting Reaves is a mistake. DRus and Reddish seem to be a better fit and the Lakers don't need another player.

He sucks when it matters...in the postseason. I think Reaves is a bit tired since he played in the summer. Think he will bounce back. Just early season struggling.

 

[DJ Fieri]

And I do not want Lavine. He is a guy that is rumored to be a potential trade target. He shoots better than RW but he needs the ball in his hands. Plus we would need more 1st rounders than we currently have. The Bulls would want a few.

I am on record saying we need to go get Hield. Converting just under 30% of our treys. Should have traded for him when we added RW. Hield is marinating on Indy's bench since Mathurin is starting and balling out.

 

[DJ Fieri]

I think we could get Hield pretty cheaply.

 

[DJ Fieri]

Actually Lavine might not be a bad idea. Was texting with a friend and he said he likes it for once the old man retires.

AD and Lavine would be a decent 1-2 punch even though neither is really a #1.

 

[DJ Fieri]

DeRozan would be cheaper in a trade but he doesn't solve the shooting issue. He from Compton so he may like coming home.

 

[Retroram52]

Maybe DRus is going to get past that post season bullshit disappearing act he seems to resurrect every time the post season arrives.

You might be right on Reaves because right now he looks like a total bust.

If we could get Hield for say Vincent or a Second rounder, that would be a decent trade. No First rounders though.

 

[Retroram52]

Lakers remain undefeated at home. They need to improve in away games. Back to .500 and they are beginning to make in-roads into the top six in the EC.

 

[DJ Fieri]

I know it was just Portland but that was a big win without Bron.

AD played really well as the #1, Reddish has been balling since he has been starting, Reaves starting to play well off the bench and Hach played well in place of Bron.

 

[DJ Fieri]

And Prince might have been the best FA signing. He has been consistent.

 

[Retroram52]

Agree on all points, DJ. The Lakers are beginning to move into the realm of playing well without LeBron as his days of playing and playing as a Laker are coming to a close.

I've never been a Lavine fan. Flash over substance IMO, don't see him being a winning player in the NBA.
