If we need another defender it’s for Lou or Kawhi. That bum gorje pall is a self check, Kawhi gon be sick when regular season P reveal his hoe ways once again.


Unless Danny green steps up on defense they will need another guy that can guard a 6’7/6’8 wing besides lebron. Maybe explore a trade for someone like Robert Covington

Danny Green played Kawhi well on opening night. Kawhi only went off when we had KCP on him

But I agree that we another big wing. I've been saying that since before the season started

Wait so Lebron now can’t guard Leonard now? They are fine. Sure they have undersized guards but so do the Clippers and they can’t defend like the lakers. fukk what PG is doing against a hawks team playing Trae young and a bunch of inefficient raw rookies

Danny Green is fine in his lane, but the Lakers need a bigger defender to focus on 3s/4s. They don't even dream of having the assets to get Covington, best they can hope for is for KCP to step or or to acquire someone at the end of his career like Iggy or Ariza.

Me too.

If LeBron is the 1A or 1B scorer AND the primary ballhandler and distributor then of course he shouldn't be guarding the best player on the other team too. At 35 years old, are you serious? This is why the Bulls used Ron Harper and Scottie Pippen as the defensive specialists to help MJ and the Lakers got Ariza and then Artest to help Kobe. At their absolute prime an offensive 1st option can be the key defender too (think Bron from '09-'14 or MJ up through his first run), but if you want them to have any legs at all in their mid-30s then you better have other folk handling those responsibilities.

The trick to guarding Kawhi is forcing him to make split-second play-making decisions

Not sure if that will be a factor when PG is also on the floor.

Playoff Pee has shytted the bed in the playoffs the past few years but now all of a sudden teams are suppose to fear him
They should fear him cuz he’s the second option to a player that’s superior to him.

Contenders shouldn’t fear him as a #1, especially when he was in Indiana which was more of a defensive juggernaut at their height. In OKC they never ran a system and had very little spacing.

It’s clear that PG isn’t on the level of being the best player on a championship team. But there’s only like 4 of those guys in the league, and one of them is his teammate. He’s the next best thing after that

They didn’t look out matched vs the raptors or clippers, especially not the raptors :russ:

raptors bench bodied them in the 4th every lakers player , except one was a net negative what the hell are you talking about.clippers bench did the same thing they completely took the game over

yo this forum do not be watching these games
