We got Cousins on a discounted contract because there was no market.

Nice post Dr. You can make an argument for most. Don't let the "I am always right" and "my words are gospel" folks bring you down.

I would not have taken the time to post it if I did not believe it.

Yes. I prescribe:

1 - a tight, well disciplined, well-orchestrated defensive scheme with all players buying in and giving maximum effort,

2 - all rotation players remain relatively healthy during the regular season and stay at optimum health during the playoffs,

3 - the team set a franchise record for highest 3-pt FG%

Dear Doctor,

Based on heartaches from recent past, I hope you agree that there's one more:

4. Make friggin' FTs at a high clip!

Agree with all you said. We could have at least gotten back a pick or two for him or used him in part of a bigger trade to keep Hart.

If Zu makes it as starting C for a season, I will concede the point. As it is, I see Zu as a possible decent backup big. Not really concerned about losing him in his RFA year.

It's great to read some positive posts on LG. Lately, it seems like everyone just wants to (bleep) and complain about something or another. This team is set up to be in the best position to win in the post Kobe era

Thanks for posting, let's sit back and enjoy the lakeshow


Funny how a label like "best positioned team to win since the Kobe era" is used as a positive label. Not one team since Kobe's last playoff appearance (in 2013) has won more than 37 games. It's an awfully low bar.
