This guy NEEDS to be playing down the stretch of games. Just too good of a shooter. The question is, who's out when Lonzo is back?

Zo
Reggie

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.

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.

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

14 Pts, (50 pct from 3, 4-8 from 3pt) , 5 rbs, 1 ast, 1 stl (+8)

For once you have a shooter that other teams will game plan and fear on the Lakers.

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.

Bullocks is what we wish Svi can developed into in a couple of years, but with Lebron here, we don't have the luxury of waiting, great pick up.

Maybe. But Bullock is taller, has greater length and athleticism. Not sure Svi can compensate for those things at the NBA level against starters.

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

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.

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.

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.

His shooting and D are just what the doctor ordered.

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.

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.
