Probably your boy coming off a major emotional breakdown. |

Sounds good. |
I agree Lebron is going to be playing center a lot in the close and Bullock is more reliable than KCP |

Don't have him guard the opposing team's best scorer when Ingram is available and we're good going forward, Luke. _________________ Under New Management |

So nice to have a knockdown 3 point shooter. I liked Svi, but he's nowhere near ready like Bullock is. He only had what, 11-12 points? But I don't think we win without him last night. _________________ From 2-10 to the Western Conference Finals |

RB3 definitely added some much needed outside scoring. He fit in seamlessly and is off to a nice start as a Laker.

For once you have a shooter that other teams will game plan and fear on the Lakers. _________________ From 2-10 to the Western Conference Finals |

Bullock seems to be a missing piece. He is definitely a keeper.
More consistent than KCP by a wide margin. |

He knows his role and doesn't try to do things he's not great at doing that KCP seems to try. _________________ From 2-10 to the Western Conference Finals |

Maybe. But Bullock is taller, has greater length and athleticism. Not sure Svi can compensate for those things at the NBA level against starters. _________________ From 2-10 to the Western Conference Finals |

Svi is clearly the better ball handler and passer and not far behind Bullock as a run/jump athlete. _________________ Under New Management |

svi's faaar behind bullock as a defender and shooter though. i think in 3-4 years svi might be a poor man's bogdan type player, which is good, but i think this was a fantastic trade for where the lakers are right now. _________________ substance over style |

But are those the type of skills that are best with a current LBJ ? I think Bullock's catch and shoot 3 abilities are almost elite right now. That's what LBJ needs most. _________________ From 2-10 to the Western Conference Finals |

Agreed. Bullock is 6'7", tall and athletic. Even Harden scored 30 last night, I thought Bullock did a great job defending him.
Great D, knock down 3 point shooter, athletic. I think maybe Lonzon wouldn't start when he comes back (Starting lineup: Lebron, Kuz, BI, Bullock, McGee). What do you guys think? |

Yep. RB doesn't have the name recognition, but he's most definitely an elite shooter. LeBron was using him same as he used Korver last year down the stretch. |

He should thrive, we have three guys in bron, ball and rondo who like to dish it, he is going to get a lot of looks and attempts, I think his shooting is going to help Kuzma as well, really like this pick up. As others have noted, I won't be surprised if Svi becomes a pretty decent bench shooter in time, we just needed someone further along |

I think Ingram or Kuz or even McGee( if Lebron decided to play D and get dirty) should be off the bench. Bullock is a better fit next to Lebron. |

He's not just good, but can be amongst the elite 3 point shooters, especially feeding off of LBJ. _________________ From 2-10 to the Western Conference Finals |

Bullock is better in the short-run and Svi may never make it in the NBA, but please do not diss Svi's height - the man is 6'8. _________________ Under New Management |
