Our fastbreak scoring will be the best in the league but can they do that in the playoffs when teams are ready for it? If teams force us to play half-court which will most likely be the scenario, how will we score?
When Bron joined DWade, they were both in their prime so they could still dominate the game without relying on the three. Now both Bron and WBrck are near their retirement, I don't see them dominating like they used to. WBrck is just a better version of DS. I don't see us improving much if at all. Let's see how the Lakers score when teams play zone or just stack the paint. Better pray the other two starters could knock down shots. _________________ Playoffs is good enough. - Jeanie Buss 2024

I'm not sure how much Basketball you watch but the Lakers had fast breaks against phx. If you want your post to not show bias you can start by not calling him westbrick. #Tellushowyoureallyfeel. What part of a guy averaging a triple dub 4 out the last 5 years and carrying teams to the playoffs in the east and west tells you his almost done as a player? See the difference between this team and his Houston team is. We was able to take the ball out of James harden hands and force Russ to make a play or shoot. You double team Bron and AD is gonna get a pass to the post or ellington etc.. Will be open. There's no defensive scheme Lebron hasn't seen. _________________ Coach Vogel, Kidd, Hollins

I just watched one of Nunns videos for the playoffs. I'm excited to see him in a Lakers jersey. _________________ Coach Vogel, Kidd, Hollins

Watching 3 Bazemore videos he seems streaky like KCP but also plays defense. Elington his shotslooks like everyone is going in. Lethal shooter. I want him to start. _________________ Coach Vogel, Kidd, Hollins

The Lakers have NINE players on their 2021-22 roster that have A grades in our Passing Creation Quality metric!
Oh and also 2 Bs.
What this means is when they playmake for teammates, they're generating easy shots.
The next closest team has 6 A grades.
I'm counting on Tim's model to hold true this year!
I didn’t think playmaking was really an issue last season…ton of wide open looks.
Now the shooting was embarrassingly bad…turrible.
I think one of the issues was having to rely on LeBron to be that and having a huge drop off when he sits. The shooting was a problem as well no doubt.
Hopefully this year, the team can still playmake when he sits or when he rests on court. _________________ 💜💛 🏆 👀 🍖 #18!!!

I have been saying, no team has 3 PGs like Westbrook, Bron, Rondo. Having three guys that see the game in that floor general way, and can pick apart a defense in 3 different ways. No team has 3 guys that if given minutes would lead the league in assists, easily. I have never seen a team that has this many playmakers. Now will they get the balance of sharing the ball, right lineups, etc.? I don't know. But the talent to create shots is unreal.
