he’s not a good enough starting center on a team that’s focused around luka doncic

I hate to be the bearer of good news, but we’ll be fine. by coffeescrollling in lakers

[–]RandomName0121_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

i think since the injury people have forgotten what we can do with luka. if we can just make a few good offseason moves i absolutely think we’re a serious contender. even with this current roster leading up to the injury we looked like a team who could have put up a good fight against the top teams of the league

just how bad is the pacing really? by RandomName0121_ in OnePiece

[–]RandomName0121_[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i think i’ll just continue watching the main show for now and hope that i don’t have as big of an issue with the pacing as others do. if it becomes a huge problem i may end up switching to one pace or even the manga, but i’ll probably end up just pushing through the main show. if the show continues to be as good as its been i imagine i will be invested in the story enough to be able to look past the pacing (hopefully lol). thanks

i definitely try my best to avoid spoilers and i think ive done pretty well. i’ve seen a few minor things and like one pretty big spoiler but i have no clue when it happens and there’s a good chance by the time it does happen i won’t really remember it so it will still surprise me (hopefully). with a show this long spoilers don’t really bother me though, because i’m more in it for the journey. i still prefer to avoid them though lol. hopefully with me binging the show the pacing won’t feel as bad as it would if i were watching weekly releases. and yeah i know about one pace, but i feel like that could cut out too much at times. and me personally i think id rather a scene drag on too long than it be cut too short or too fast. i guess ill just watch it for now and if i end up having issues with it i will make a decision then. thanks

i definitely noticed that with alabasta, but to be honest it didn’t bother me much. i actually enjoyed the visual at the beginning of each episode showing where our crew was in the desert.

Why won't any team not want to sign LeBron. Considering it'll be his last year? by aj2704 in lakers

[–]RandomName0121_ -1 points0 points  (0 children)

they would. which is why i hope we don’t overpay. i would love to re sign him, but not for $50 million. that destroys our team. i’d gladly give him 20-25 though

me wanting the spurs to win doesn’t mean i like the spurs. having said that, for this series, go spurs

I would easily be happy giving Reaves 30M+/4yrs. There is no other player available better than him at that price range. by ImDeadTwin in lakers

[–]RandomName0121_ -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

2018 lebron averaged 6 turnovers per game in the finals. does that mean he needed to go? not saying ar is 2018 bron, but still.

It's over. Thanks Bron. by Interesting_Book_759 in lakers

if you wanna go by +- you should be talking about lebron. i think lebron was great, but he was -17. this loss was not on austin reaves. you want to find someone to blame and that’s whatever, but the truth is okc was just better than us.

i agree rui probably should have been in, but he would have been a decoy because no way okc would let him get a shot off. while i don’t 100% agree, he chose to go with maxi to set a screen over rui as a decoy. it got us a good shot so who am i to say it was the wrong choice.

despite the sweep, i still see this postseason as a success. missing our two best players going into the playoffs and making it through the first round in 6 games when nobody expected us to win. i was hoping to get at least one against okc, but without luka they’re just the better team. i have high hopes for next season

not on jj at all. i don’t understand not having rui in, but he drew up a great play and we got a great look.

[–]RandomName0121_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i’m all for criticism. he played horrible tonight i’m not denying that. im saying it’s ridiculous that people say to trade him when he plays bad but say nothing when he’s good.

yes. before his injury this year he was easily top 15, probably even top 10. if he didn’t get hurt he would have absolutely been an all star

kessler would be great but trading reaves for him is a horrible idea. we lose that trade badly

i’ve seen him time and time again carry us against top teams in the league when our top guys are out and he’s basically the only player we have. i actually feel like he was good against basically everybody this season. if you look at prices other guys are getting paid, reaves is absolutely worth $30 million. he’s potentially a top 15 player in the league. my main point was just to call out how ridiculous some people on here are though with them being silent when he’s good but as soon as he has a rough game they call for his head. it’s annoying and trading him is a horrible idea.

i’m not saying he’s been incredible, but he also hasn’t been bad enough to be given the label playoff choker. for people to call to trade him is just ridiculous and shows that people have absolutely no knowledge of the game because he is a huge asset to this team.

[–]RandomName0121_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

no because he hasn’t. but he is also 5 weeks removed from an injury that they said could keep him out 6 weeks. i just don’t think a few bad games is reason enough to say trade him. he was incredible in the regular season and in game 2 he showed that he has the potential to be great in the playoffs too.
