Gasol is actually playing good, he’s a better defender than I thought.

But ya we are definitely on a roll now.

He's slow as hell but he's smart. The Rockets and the Pelicans tried to put him in pick and roll action with Zion and Harden respectively, and he consistently just beats them to their spot with his hands up.

It's when you make him do crosscourt rotations where he's in trouble.

A more urgent need in the buyout market IMO is a long wing defender like Ariza.

He’s slow but his feet are just fast enough for most players.

The Laker in me will never not want Game Freeza back on the team. If we got him and Pau I’d be

Brons not even putting up numbers and he’s leading the mvp race. Media will give him a legacy award if Lakers remain number 1 overall.

he actually is; his raw numbers are deceiving because he's not playing long enough minutes but if you at his per 36 production, it tells a different story

Not gonna lie, the Nets are scary. The trio offensive power is :sadcam:

If we beat them it will be with depth and defense
