Kuzma is a nice addition......but ball has to meet expectations....even if the squad sucks he still has to shine, like kyrie did wit CLE...,they sucked but he still managed to show "I'm a star".....ball gonna have to do at least that.


I think ball will show a nice game overall even if he struggles to shoot sometimes. He already looks like a consistent rebounder and you already know he's gonna get his dimes. He had some nice summer league games that showed star potential. He's gonna make the offense go and get guys easy buckets. I want see his "wet" jumper too....at UCLA he shot pretty well

I hope he shapes out too.....I'd like to see some new Laker glory days.

this isnt my forte whatsoever, but just based on what Im reading from you laker fans, Clarkson and Randle are still booty and I know Corey Brewer is horrendous

are either of those latter 2 expiring contracts?

The Truth
Randle knows his job is gone.

Despite averaging a double double, he was the main cause for like 4 turnovers, slowed the action with his bullyball, showed minimum IQ, still can not stretch the floor, and then had the nerve to get into it with Faried during a preseason game...

Dude is garbage. Kuzma came in there and made smart plays, key assists, hustle plays, ran the fukkING FLOOR (like Zo wants), and hit not only outside shots but finesses inside shots as well.

Nance is cool off the bench at being an energy guy but its obvious that Kuz has an intelligence level and a skillset that Larry does not. Especially not Randle

I still don't know if he will get a start BUT it's clear he needs to play with Lonzo.

Ingram is not the go-to scorer for us, I said it last game. He is better serviceable on defense and hitting shyt he is set up for.

I like Vander more than Clarkson honestly.. At least with Lonzo

KCP is tough and can D up but his shot is suspect.

Ennis is pretty decent

Still can't wait to see Lopez, Bogut, and Hart come off the bench. Honestly I would trade Randle and Clarkson right now if I could. If Hart is any good then both of them have most likely been replaced...

Lakerground clowns are really high on Randle

They see that double double bullshyt and seem to not see how he doesn't help the team at all down there.

He was like -13 and had the highest +/- than anyone else most of the game.

I will give him the benefit of the doubt and say he miscommunicated with Zo on a couple plays, but thats it. He was literally the cause of like 2/3 turnovers that weren't personally his.

All this dude wants to do is grab a board and start running the break by himself. If he's going to do that then whats the point of bringing in Zo?

Not to mention he still can't/don't shoot and tries to out muscle every player even if they are much bigger. Dude plays like a short-armed Dwight Howard the was he tries to force shyt
