:mjlol: At y’all thinking Zo on this team would be doing any better.

Y’all just ran him off the team now y’all want him back.

When the inevitable shooting slump happens y’all would be screaming to trade that nikka again.


shyt i didnt run him off the team i wanted us to find a way to trade for AD while keeping Zo :yeshrug:

Plus, i think his long term shooting slumps are over. Second straight year with a good 3pt percentage and his FT% is way up. Looks like he's finally found confidence and consistency. I think he'd be doing great on this team

And all of this would stop playing with Lebron. DS looked far better last year. Kuzma has regressed since Lebrons come to LA. This isn’t a coincidence.

:yeshrug: Yall don’t wanna hear facts. Dispute anything I said.

It's a silly and tired argument you're using. Many people have argued it many times on this board. Go see if more will argue it with you by making yet another shytty Bron hate thread. Getting the same 5-10 daps from the same 5-10 people seems to be the main reason you're on here so go live your dream

:mjlol: Dennis has played worse in games without Lebron than he has in games with Lebron. He was brought in as the fourth scoring option and his production is in line with the rest of his career.

Lebron will of course affect others output, but he doesn't stop them from developing their IQ

:sas1: So what you’re saying is you can’t argue any points I’ve said? Did Schröder not play better last year? Was Lonzo not ready lacking confidence playing with Lebron? Many of you had Kuzma up there with Tatum after their rookie years, is Kuzma anywhere near that level now? Like I said, you can’t handle the truth :yeshrug:don’t matter to me tho, Nets in 4.

At least those teams would look somewhat organize. Even with one of Bron or AD missing this Laker team falls apart. :yeshrug:
Lakers are like 9-2 or something this year in games where AD is the only starter missing.

It was when they were missing AD and Schroeder simultaneously that they struggled.

He'd play all nba defense and get these guys some easy shots. His shooting has been consistent these past two seasons.

Playing for a title contender is much different than playing for a small market/non-title contender.

Also:

* Kuzma avg nearly 19 ppg on 46% fg shooting during Lebron's first season in LA...So Lebron isn't the problem.

* Schroder's role was much different in OKC (6th man)

* Lonzo has a great shooting coach in NO...When he played for the Lakers he had trash shooting coaches.

only difference is his 3point% is way down from last year. But that’s prolly cause last year was an outlier for him
