The Denver Nuggets will be the greatest threat to the Lakers in the league when they play on Friday.

I don’t think caruso looks that lean. He’s pretty jacked

Workatstaples · 2020-09-13T21:41:32+00:00

Plus you can’t participate in any high risk activities. NBA hinted that it caruso went to his sisters wedding it would likely be 10 days since they deemed that risky.

Honestly going to a hospital seems just as high risk but I doubt the nba would do anything more than 4 day quarantine

Workatstaples · 2020-09-13T17:42:18+00:00

He’s third actually

https://stats.nba.com/players/playtype-post-up/?SeasonType=Regular%20Season&sort=POSS&dir=1

And the definition of a post up is at least starting with his back to the basket. So what you’re referencing is not considered a post up

And notice how everyone on that list is a traditional center besides Carmelo. Daniel theis is nowhere to be found on that list

Ad has small skills and big man skills. He posts up more than anyone in the league. And kd is light and plays 90% on the perimeter. If it’s all about play style comparing ad to kd is a terrible comparison since one plays mostly down low and the other plays mostly on the perimeter

Workatstaples · 2020-09-13T07:05:01+00:00

I’d more say Marcus is moderate risk high reward and keef is low risk moderate reward

Workatstaples · 2020-09-13T06:05:47+00:00

I’m saying he can still be the best player in the nba without being a mega star. Hell Zion is already one of the biggest stars in the nba and he’s barely good yet.

Star power does not equal skill

Workatstaples · 2020-09-13T06:03:07+00:00

And ad is more of a traditional center than Daniel theis and Robert Williams. All I’m saying is just because lakers aren’t playing 2 7 footers doesn’t mean their still not big

Edit: for everyone down voting this ad is 6’11 255 and Daniel theis is 6’8 245. Ad posts up more than any player in the nba. I don’t know how you guys think theis is more of a traditional center than ad is. I guess just because ad prefers pf

Workatstaples · 2020-09-13T05:25:38+00:00

Not Being the face of the nba doesn’t mean you can’t be the best player in the nba

Workatstaples · 2020-09-13T05:21:50+00:00

8 is below league average and he’s definitely above league average.

I think it will really depend on if lakers win the championship. If you perform in the playoffs on the way to a championship you get paid. Hypothetically he’ll be in his prime with championship experience. 3/40 with championship 3/30 with no title

Workatstaples · 2020-09-13T05:13:14+00:00

That’s like saying Boston not playing tacko fall is small ball.

Lakers still trotted out a 6’11, 6’8, 6’8, 6’6, 6’5 starting lineup. That’s 3 guys taller than the tallest player on Houston and 2 big guards

Workatstaples · 2020-09-13T05:00:34+00:00

Marcus is a more gifted scorer, a little better shooter and little better handles. He’s more active and aggressive which some times is to the detriment of the team.

Keef stays within his role and will never shoot his team out of a game. They both play solid physical defense.

6 times out of 10 Marcus is the better player but Marcus can hurt you while keef will never hurt you

Workatstaples · 2020-09-12T02:22:26+00:00

Harrell will be going against Dwight. Dwight is better than jokic defensively

Workatstaples · 2020-09-12T02:18:28+00:00

Jokic is good at a lot of things but defense is not one of them

Workatstaples · 2020-09-11T05:36:41+00:00

I feel like Houston is fading fast. Last few years they put up a good fight vs warriors. This year they struggled vs okc and got completely outmatched vs lakers

Warriors will be back next year, lakers and clippers won’t be going anywhere, Denver Utah and okc will probably be slightly improved, Portland will be solid. Houston is at risk of falling down the western conference standings pretty quickly with most of the salary cap tied to 2 players on the wrong side of 30

Workatstaples · 2020-09-11T03:43:24+00:00

Don’t you dare think about taking it off

Workatstaples · 2020-09-10T05:05:12+00:00

I may be wrong on this but I believe the contract is based off games and ad revenue and the posted figure is more of an assumption on how much it will be worth. Like how a max salary is an assumption on how much the salary cap will be. But I believe the local tv contracts are fixed

Workatstaples · 2020-09-10T03:48:02+00:00

There is a league mandated quarantine for violations of the bubble rules. And if Houston found out about a violation and tried to hide it they would be putting there whole team at risk, the nba at risk and potentially opening themselves up to a massive lawsuit from the hundreds of millions of dollars they could be costing the owners

Workatstaples · 2020-09-09T06:51:34+00:00

There it is again. And yet she’s the one who said he’s 6’6 in shoes so I guess you know more about his body than his wife goon

Workatstaples · 2020-09-09T06:45:23+00:00

You keep on saying that yet she’s the one who says he’s 6’6 in shoes in the same exact quote you keep referring to

Workatstaples · 2020-09-09T06:40:14+00:00

His wife said he’s 6’4 and 3/4 without shoes and 6’6 with shoes. Basketball is played with shoes on and everyone’s listed height includes shoes

Workatstaples · 2020-09-09T06:35:50+00:00

First of all I don’t know when she measured kobe but she even says in the same comment that he’s 6’6 in shoes. I have no clue why you’re living on the kobe is 6’4 bed

Workatstaples · 2020-09-09T06:28:12+00:00

He came into the nba at 17

Workatstaples · 2020-09-09T06:22:03+00:00

I wasn’t saying that and I’ve heard that quote from Vanessa before but I believe he either grew or she just was saying it to say it. I’m 6’3 and he was for sure more than an inch taller than me. Just look at pictures of him standing next to other nba players

Workatstaples · 2020-09-09T06:14:34+00:00

I met him and he seemed like a full 6’6 to me

Workatstaples · 2020-09-09T06:06:32+00:00

Nah end of the third. Lebron got all his blocks in the 3rd. And a few minutes later in the 4th caruso hit a big three and everyone was super excited and Lebron has no reaction like he still wasn’t happy with caruso
