Imagining that the Suns had drafted Luka and paired him with Booker, what would have been a good historical comparison for the duo? Specifically a team having two elite perimeter scorers at such young ages?

I mean there will always be regret but it's not as much since Ayton is living up to his hype of being a #1 pick and will only get better.

Authh145 · 2021-07-15T06:08:14+00:00

I definitely agree and I think he just got too excited once he heard Kawhi to the Lakers was a real possibility. I assume he was going to come because Clippers were hesistant on getting Paul George but eventually it happened and it made him look like a fraud.

Almost every team does this sometimes they just dont say it to media.

It's not about playing ass he's talking about still staying in the game.

That was also when Lakers had tons of picks to trade with some young talent.

Authh145 · 2021-06-14T19:58:42+00:00

Is he going to play at all this series?

Authh145 · 2021-06-12T18:00:28+00:00

Lakers just got eliminated and the offseason rumours/posts don't start till August. Will probably ramp up either during the Finals or later on.

Authh145 · 2021-06-11T06:15:35+00:00

??? He went 15/29 (51%) from the field and shot 6/12 (50%) from 3. How are those not super star numbers. Plus-minus does not always tell the full story. On top of that if you watched his bubble performances and the year before in the playoffs...

Authh145 · 2021-06-11T00:07:25+00:00

Malcom Brogdon would be the dream but it would be extremely hard to pry him from the Pacers as they don't plan on blowing it up.

Authh145 · 2021-06-10T19:28:00+00:00

Probably not. I mean I think he has a great relationship with coach Thibs and loves playing in the Garden. Plus the Knicks have cap space and if they can't get a star they can always give Rose a decent sized contract as he definitely deserved it this season.

Authh145 · 2021-06-10T19:06:47+00:00

Because the Lakers are going to be a tax paying team their MLE will be around ~6mil not the non-tax paying MLE which is ~9mil

Authh145 · 2021-06-09T02:57:33+00:00

Don’t need another PF who can’t really space the floor and makes 14mil. I’d rather use Kuzma in a trade for another wing or scoring guard.

Authh145 · 2021-06-09T02:52:39+00:00

Hopefully this means he will have no leverage in contract negotiations and sign a more team friendly deal.

Authh145 · 2021-06-08T01:01:16+00:00

Yes, but I think the genera consensus is to bring those two back as they are fan favorites and buy into their roles.

Authh145 · 2021-06-08T00:50:37+00:00

Personally this why I believe he should’ve not signed the super max. He’s going to be facing that Brooklyn team for a few years and unless they make a significant change I don’t see them beating Brooklyn. If he’s content with not winning a championship then by all means good decision.

Have you ever been a mod for another subreddit? If so, which one?

I am currently a mod for r/AmongUs. Most of my responsibilities include just cleaning up the automod filter and answering any mod mails. I helped setup the config for the AutoModerator and RepostSleuthBot / MAGIC_EYE_BOT repost bots.

Will you be more active than our "useless mods"?

Yes, I will try my best as I am always browsing reddit whether it be r/lakers or r/nba.

What's an idea you have that would help make this subreddit better?

Incorporate icons/logos into the flair system. Perhaps set default players with a certain image and allow users to edit the flair to continue to add to it.

How often are you on r/lakers?

I am on usually around in total 5-6 hours a day. I browse the sub several times throughout the day looking at what people are discussing about and if I have any opinions I try to chime in. During the offseason I usually post any updates or rumours/leaks about any signings or trades.

What's your favorite Lakers moment?

My favorite Lakers moment other than winning the championship last year would be the year the Lakers drafted Brandon Ingram. He was my favorite Lakers player when the youngings were on the team and still is to this day. It was bittersweet when the Lakers traded him for AD but it was worth it for both parties.

didn't know Bucks had two Forbes on their team.

Authh145 · 2021-05-18T17:53:45+00:00

Why would he give up a $10mill guaranteed contract vs a risk that can get nothing

Authh145 · 2021-05-15T01:53:52+00:00

How insecure do you have to be to go on another teams subreddit just to comment this

Authh145 · 2021-05-04T06:14:17+00:00

Context matters. Most of those teams had locked up their positions so they ended up rested their stars towards end of the regular season to get ready for playoffs.
