There was a thread earlier this year around what makes a true Laker... if he sticks around for a few years,remains professional and and continues to grow as a player, he's a good example of what a true Laker would be in my books. |
Yea got to be honest, even though winning a chip is the ultimate goal, I do miss watching games with team continuity. |
I think this is why I liked the Lakers 2000-era championships more. Not only did we win, we won with a common team and identity. I thought we established that in the post season with our ring 2 seasons ago, but the identity all got shipped and we've yet to see what our new identity will be. |
Yea I think that's the main reason a number of fans are finding it hard to stand behind this current team. Just too jekyll and hyde, even worse they are not even alternating between great and bad, but between average and very bad... |

Reaves is Boss Baby, a veteran masquerading as a rookie |

I think he’ll end up starting over Bradley before the end of the year.
We probably wanna be mindful of his minutes since it’s his first year. |

This guy is just excellent. Does all the little things, it stands out because we have a bunch of aged all-star/former all-star types who don't do those things - but seeing him scrap for rebounds, move off ball, make great passes, play great on ball and team D - this is stuff a championship team needs.
On a bad team he is nothing special but on a good team - he is a difference maker. Hope the Lakers keep him but I'd bet every trade partner is asking for him. |

Yeah, his reads are excellent, you can tell he studies films/player tendencies |

Imagine a lineup of:
Caruso
Monk
Reaves
LBJ
AD
talk about a nightmare for the opponent. |

I wonder, will Reaves go into full workout mode in the off season to correct that; like Kobe? Hmmm.... |

He gave us at least 5 extra possessions with charges taken, deflections and outright steals. I think I'm being conservative too. _________________ KOBE |

I’d imagine it went like this…
“Only 4 offensive rebounds & 2nd in +/- rating for the game bruh, really?
You know what happened to that last goat, right? He got taken out back and sacrificed. I’ll tax your ass too!
You saw what happened to those other kids right…yeah, I got no problem trading your ass too. Don’t matter if it’s Zo, Brandon, High5guy, Kyle, or you….F the kidz!
Manna the F up…a hillbilly goat you are not, sir! Good day!”
Btw: the thing with Bron & Austin…you love to see it! _________________ Not familiar with the salary cap/CBA rules & how it impacts our Lakers?
