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

[Osmosis]

He did, on paper KCP, Wes, Kuzma, even Marc spreads the floor. They were great to start the season but have been underwhelming since. They just hit 8 3s in first Q and set the season record tonight. The biggest disappointment has been Schroeder and Kuzma not being consistent scorers, we are struggling to get to 100 every game. Montrezz is the only guy you can be confident in giving you 20

None are high volume shooters though. Look at the Clippers, Jazz, Nets, Nuggets, Celtics, Suns, Bucks, even the Sixers.. Those teams have guys who take and make a lot of threes. Danny Green and Reggie Bullock are the only players that Pelinka has targeted with that shooting profile. It's unacceptable that the Lakers are among the worst shooting teams in the league for the third straight year.

 

[Voice of Reason]

Vogel is an idiot. This is disrespectful to Marc.

Marc can only give u a good 15 minutes a game

 

[Paper Boi]

kuz more willing to get down in the paint than AD.

 

[VegasCAC]

Of course the offense will struggle with AD and Bron out. Thats like 50+ points of efficient offense every night. This team isn't built to operate without them and the looks they generate

 

[UltimateHustler]

It’s wild that Kuz still don’t have a crossover, spin move, hesi-dribble or anything in his arsenal to fill out his game

 

[rightfultoefinger]

Ha ha. Play the Lakers, pack the paint and let our so called shooters shoot. 8-12 in the 1st and like what 2-1000000 in the last 3q.

 

[HoldThisL]

On a positive note, Lakers are still hanging with the Bucks without their two star players

High volume great shooters are expensive, Bertrans getting 80 mil lol. It’s tough, I do wish he went hard after Ellington though. He’s gonna have to trade some defense for offense this summer

 

[Voice of Reason]

Breh the lakers need a defensive big in the worse way

 

[Sinnerman]

We had a ton of open looks tonight, but like always we couldn't knock em down

We hung in there until the end

 

[ALonelyDad]

Caruso got Giannis back

 

[Paper Boi]

caruso bout had enough of the rest of these dudes.

 

[HoldThisL]

These guys get so many great looks and miss .

Danny Green playoff status looks

 

[Paper Boi]

damn they got liangelo antetokounmpo in the game

 

[ALonelyDad]

This man Thanasis just did the Luka side step 3
