GIVE A TEAM A RING N FEED EM 4 A YEAR, GIVE EM A DYNASTY N FEED EM 4 A LIFETIME: 2021 LAKERS THREAD

[THE MACHINE]

Obviously very small sample size, but Bron is shooting 50% from the field and 43% from 3pt when in clutch situations this year. It definitely has felt like a big improvement from last year, but could just be random.

Yeah, the shooting has been great, might need to get Dennis or Caruso to initiate the offense and he should be able to cook all season in clutch time. The ball handling from him has led to a few too many turnovers, which is understandable with his mileage.
Then again, Dennis aint setting up shyt but his own shot

I honestly don't think Schroeder is the answer. He's not going to be efficient in the playoffs, he's not a great distributor, and his defense isn't good enough to justify anything.

What did you guys make of the Clippers/Nets game last night?

Clippers are a legit team much more dangerous than last, but I can’t imagine them being this good from 3 all season. The nets offensively are SCARY. Kyrie harden and KD all 3 of them can get theirs and shoot 85%+ at the stripe so come clutch time it’s scary time. Our title hopes come down to AD and trez if they can bully them and force them
Have to go bog we win. If ad playing like a hoe still then it’s dangerous

Pretty much this.

I really underestimated the Ibaka and Batum additions. They already play LeBron tougher than any other team.

As far as the Nets another guy that would HAVE to step up...is Kuz. Cause if the Lakers are forced to play small then he'd need to be big on the boards and figure out how to score like he did 2 years ago.

AD has to validate his playoff success from last year. Cause last year was one of Bron's greatest playoff performances ever and there was a serious debate if AD was better. He needs to be that good again.

AD has to average 30 in that series easily and he should if Nets have the same roster going in the finals

Trez won't be able to guard anybody on the Nets...or the Clipps. But he's been trying harder on D lately tho. Wes been trash...he just cant get his shot off. Say what u want about Danny Green...but he got his bricks off.

Also Dennis might not it come playoff time...he's got tunnel vision, not a consistent shooter..and he'll definitely get cooked by Kyrie if its the Nets in the finals. Ya'll need to go get Lowry before Kawhi goes to get him next season.

Dude makes 30M you would have to give up too much to make the salaries match.

Dennis has been far better than I expected defensively. Big one tonight
