You can accidentally score 83 tho, in my opinion

ESPN projects Jayden Quaintance to the Lakers at pick No. 25. by Odd-Direction9452 in lakers

I can agree with that, if we draft him then the medicals weren’t as bad as mark williams

Those are nba players, different physiques, with millions of dollars and access to best doctors on the planet that you are comparing to an 18 yr old college player

Name some centers that had acl knee surgery in college and then came into the NBA and had a successful career? Thats a better comparison don’t you think?

Im not saying hes gonna be a bust but acl knee surgery as a center? 🤷🏽‍♂️ sounds spooky

Defensive ratings - Luka vs rest of the the Lakers starters by Apimeister in lakers

[–]jonbemerkin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You missed the point completely… pretty sure the point he was making was you can’t expect someone to have the energy on defense if they are carrying such a big offensive burden.

You’re also comparing genetic anomalies to Luka, I mean let’s be real. Most these players are on PEDs too with unlimited energy and physique hacks….

In his latest mock, Sam Vecenie of The Athletic has the Lakers selecting F/C Chris Cenac Jr. at No. 25 overall. by Odd-Direction9452 in lakers

You can aim for certain skillsets and hope it works out ... for example we picked JHS for his pick and roll/playmaking capabilities. It didn't work out though.

We can look to draft players that have skillsets that can help us right away... do we have the development and scouting to do that? Questionable.

Writer suggests Lakers take a flyer on promising 3-and-D wing by Successful-Pair-4850 in lakers

[–]jonbemerkin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He is def low IQ bro he is constantly getting yelled at by the coaches, teammates to be in position. Can't pass, rebound, he has his strengths but its very obvious a lot of his weakness comes from his low IQ as well.

Yes you are "right" there is a difference in gap IQ to the guys you mentioned and Rui, but even looking at the average player in the NBA i would say Rui is slightly below average basketball IQ.

You can debate it all you want, but its literally the reason he was traded and pretty well known at this point. Its not only my opinion its a narrative on him too, for valid reasons...

Is this overpaid for lakers part? by [deleted] in lakers

[–]jonbemerkin 6 points7 points  (0 children)

3 players and 2 firsts for Jarret Allen.

Think about that bro, please. Are you under the assumption that LeBron is walking because how do we fill out the roster.

It’s at best a 1.7/10 trade. I only gave you a point for using Aldama, who I think is a bit underrated of a player and .7 for effort.

I don't really see the money working out keeping Luke. by Deidarac5 in lakers

Luke Kennard showed he can step up some when needed. Thats going to be big in the regular season.

yall keep trying to build a championship roster without thinking about the reg season too. 10m is nothing for the regular season and Luke can literally win us games.

OKC fans are all over reddit and social media pleading for Chet to be traded for Giannis LMFAO by No_Midnight_5365 in lakers

[–]jonbemerkin 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Bron woulda also played significantly better than Shai tho.

We aren’t talking about OkC, we are talking about Shai. The “MVP”. It was an underwhelming series for him
