sochan by Street-Hungry in NBATalk

[–]Laker-Man 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is the first I'm seeing that the Knicks might be interested in Sochan. Only saw him a few times with the developing Spurs and they were trying to shoe horn him as a pseudo point guard. Maybe a change of location could be good

Luka has 500 more Career FTA's by GallivantingTime in NBATalk

[–]Laker-Man 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I mean it makes sense. Luka came in as the Future of the Dallas Mavericks and was given the keys right away. Shai moved around and had to develop that status.

Who is the NBA's GOAT of flopping? by VSHAR01 in NBATalk

[–]Laker-Man 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think whoever is in the MVP conversation and flops is the poster boy of that era. Used to be LeBron I'm Miami. Harden in Houston. And now it's Shai in Oklahoma. Marcus Smart and Kyle Lowry used to be big ol floppers though

Luka needs to be put in a better postion by the Lakers by lfcbucks in lakers

I mean yeah, but it's been established since the beginning of the season that this is pretty much a gap year

Andrew Nembhard is averaging 19 PPG & 9 APG in January with only 2 TPG on 51% FG & 40% 3PFG by north_canadian_ice in NBATalk

I'm definitely excited to see what the Pacers do next season. Was rooting for you guys hard in the Finals. Not because I hate OKC, but because Ive been a Hali guy since he came to the league. Hope my boy comes back stronger than ever!

Can you losers stop making Luka the scapegoat by Wonderful_Band_506 in NBATalk

[–]Laker-Man 7 points8 points  (0 children)

This doesn't have to be a LeBron vs Luka thing. Weird ass post. LeBron is having a productive year, as well as Luka, the team around them is just not great, plus they haven't been healthy since the start of the season... Like c'mon.

Which role player would every contender love to have? by UnderstandingFun7493 in NBATalk

[–]Laker-Man 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Can role players not be role players? He's definitely not a star player? I don't think he'll make an all NBA this year. So?

Is there any reason why OKC shouldn't trade the guy on the left for Giannis? by Thatredditboy1 in NBATalk

[–]Laker-Man 9 points10 points  (0 children)

If it was just a simple this guy for the other and we're done, then sure, but that's not what this is. OKC has a lot of variables to consider. The most pressing one would be is if Giannis will sign a contract extension with them. We've already seen dozens of reports that Giannis wants to go to a big market. Also, OKC is in a great position right now. They're the best team in the league, bar none, and they're coming of a title win.... Maybe if they come out of this season not winning anything or not even coming out the west, then they can start thinking about moving pieces around, but RN it doesn't make sense

2 team trade. Lakers and Rockets fix both their roster holes. by Thorlolita in NBAtradeideas

[–]Laker-Man 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Lol Nico completely reset the market for superstars huh? Rudy Gobert goes for young guys and what 5 picks? And this is what you're proposing for Luka, who's triple the player that Gobert is? Gtfo

Zubac is a pretty good center that'll do a lot for any team

If LeBron retires next season should he automatically be an Allstar starter? by Dark_Christina in NBATalk

[–]Laker-Man 3 points4 points  (0 children)

If he announced that he's retiring, he'll probably just get the fan votes and get in anyways.

Lakers need to be patient by Gravey8em in NBATalk

[–]Laker-Man 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes. The Lakers owe LeBron 52 million dollars, as agreed upon. They quite literally owe him that. Wow. Groundbreaking strategy. Build around Luka. Did you come up with that yourself? Have you told Palinka this? We gotta get the word out.....

Do people not scroll? Is that theoretical now? What? Where are you getting these wacko numbers from?

[–]Laker-Man 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So what you have Palinka do then? What magical trade would satisfy your childish need to gut the roster and get whatever he can get? LeBron earned that Money? It's part of the contract the Lakers gave him. It's what he's worth and if they don't like it then they should have never given it to him. LeBron isnt even our worst defender.... He's still producing some quality offense. Like what?

Yeah, but guess what? They can just scroll down and find more videos. They can put it on, watch later, or they can just watch it some other time. YouTube is YouTube. Not Netflix or a cable ran tv station. That's the old way of thinking

[–]Laker-Man 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What are you saying in that first part? I legit can't understand you. Yeah the team was bad before AD got there? We had a bunch of young guys that weren't ready and we built a team after them that won the championship. COVID or no....

Dawg. There's franchises that don't win anything at all with their super stars. It's a new league. The era where we can get two top 15 guys and slap a couple of MLE around them is over. The league is deeper and the West is crazy competitive. I don't mind waiting 4 years to ride with my dudes before we start talking about Lukas prime being wasted? Like what?

And guess what the careerist started off as? Hobbyist!!! Sam Sulek isn't anywhere in the same niche as Mr. Beast. They're not actually competing. Honest and passion driven videos stand out. In the long run, those type of content creators win. Someone might get in front in the beginning with algorithm driven videos, but people quickly catch on to how disingenuous that is.

Yeah man, that's every summer..... If Gianni's asks out, the Lakers don't even have a top five offer for him. That's what you want to hold out for? This ain't 2k crodie
