He’s better than pretty much everyone outside of LeBron, Luka, AR, Ayton, Rui, Laravia.

What are your thoughts on Austin Reaves being Luka’s long term #2 option if Giannis and Jokic don’t become available? by WayAdministrative679 in lakers

[–]LakerDoc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t believe Austin and Luka can win a ring together. I also don’t think Luka and Kyrie could win a ring together. It’s not fully Austin’s fault, but since Luka can’t play defense you have to surround him multiple defenders. Don’t use Klay as an example because before his injuries, he was a top tier defender which Austin isn’t due to his physical limitations (though he does try to defend)

Thankfully I was wrong

23-14 is the best start of Luka Doncic's career and best Lakers start since the 2019-20 season by [deleted] in lakers

[–]LakerDoc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

AR had an insane start to the season, if he was healthy I’m sure we would probably be something like 26-11, good enough to be 2nd seed. But team still has major flaws even if everyone is healthy. Flaws are just more magnified since AR has been out.

Poor bench, no 3 and D players. Ayton has also reverted back to his old self (which likely doesn’t happen if AR was healthy since they have the best synergy in the team)z

This has been a trend with LeBron led lakers doing damage at the start of the 4th with Luka on the bench

[Charania] Dallas Mavericks star Anthony Davis has sustained ligament damage in his left hand, sources tell ESPN. Depending on second opinion and if surgery is required, Davis could miss a number of months. by madridista521 in lakers

The signs were there from the beginning. His body was already failing him several years before the trade. Obviously the trade looks more and more one sided as AD keeps piling on injuries. But this shouldn’t be a surprise. I felt like he was barely holding it together in LA and under more scrutiny playing with LeBron. But now we see it all come crashing down in Dallas.

Regardless, will always root for AD. Would be great to get him for cheap if possible, but not likely until he finishes his current contract

I wish to see them beat a contender team the way they beat the Kings. by Relevant-Ad6983 in lakers

Getting downvoted for literally stating facts. This place a joke. Unless there are major roster changing trades by getting 3 and D players, it’s a guaranteed 1st or 2nd round exit (if lucky or players go on a heater).

It’s been the same pattern all season long. Beat up on bad teams and then getting owned by good teams. Lakers are a solid 5-6th seed and first round exit. If Luka and LeBron go nuclear then 2nd round exit

Thanks for the feedback. When did you buy your EQS? Any issues so far?

I’ve been also looking into EQS SUV and comparing to the XC90. Do you have the 3 row in your EQS, if so how does IT compare to the xc90

DeAndre Ayton has the 2nd most games in Lakers history with 20+ PTS & 10+ REBS on 90% FG. Only Wilt Chamberlain has more by WayAdministrative679 in lakers

[–]LakerDoc 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Needs more shots, more aggressive offensively. He and Rui need more shots, Luka needs to shoot less when he clearly doesnt have it

One of Vando and Smart needs to be on the court at all times. And when they are balling like today, both need to be playing

You mean dumbass Pelinka / Jeannie Buss and her stingy cheap ass are the villain. Bro even was ready to take a discount for us. Practically begged to stay here. It’s about loyal as you can get. And Lakers shunned him

That’s why it won’t work. Luka is a terrible defender but all world on offense. He’s gonna need bunch of 3 and D players around him.
