Don’ be a Sabo while chasin’ 4 rings in LA: 2021-22 GOAT franchise Boss Angeles Lakers season thread

[ALonelyDad]

this man really put in avery bradley after sitting out 40 mins

opening night desperation

its working

 

[HollywoodP]

no shyt its off Lebron...its a FOUL!

 

[Numpsay]

Is it going to take Westbrook half a season to figure his place out brehs?

 

[2Quik4UHoes]

Meh, game 1, sloppy game, win or lose I like what I see other than the need to tighten the defensive screws.

 

[MenacingMonk]

They need to work on their D and Russy needs to find his way and make his shots. That’s my takeaway from game 1.

 

[CantStop]

AD's jumper and ft shooting has taken a drastic fall off

everytime he shoots I have no belief that its going in

why is he even taking tech fts

 

[Lakerman0834]

you let a team hang around instead of bury them this is what happens.

 

[Sinnerman]

We're going to start the year 0-2, considering we play the Suns next

 

[G-Zeus]

Westbrook -28


I miss kcp.

 

[Rekkapryde]

malik monk might be the woat defender

Monk
Russ
Melo

All ass on defense

Really shoulda tried harder for Buddy Hield. Russ is worthless without the ball in his hands with his trash jumper

 

[ALonelyDad]

Positives:

- LeBron looked good
- AD looked good outside of his fts. Idk what's going on but he went from a 84% to 73% last year and is looking like a 60% ft shooter this year

- Bazemore was solid
- If Avery Bradley can hit 3s like tonight, he will be a great pickup. He can provide defense on guards.


Negatives:

- Westbrook looked horrible, I just don't have any faith in this working out
- Our defense has been bad all preseason and tonight, I am not sure even Vogel can work with this man non defensive guys

 

[HoldThisL]

Westbrook with the -25 and the team having horrible ass defense

It's gonna be a long season

 

[Malcolmxxx_23]

Its going to take 81 games for russ to get better

Melo got burned on the switches so many times

Kcp and alex were better defenders>>>

 

[Rekkapryde]

Bron and this thick ass headband

What do you mean try harder. According to Kuz, Buddy was ours until Russ asked if they could get him to the Lakers. It’s also on AD/Bron.
