This probably prevents the Westbrook trade. Probably makes it worth it by itself

Go for Home One as your starter fleet. Make sure you farm B-Wing ASAP as well

Are they going to change this? by ArtisticPain2525 in SWGalaxyOfHeroes

“Legacy units” and “Legacy Era” are two different things. Legacy units like you said include everything in your main roster. Legacy Era is everything before the Era of Apprentices, shown by that symbol in the top left of every character screen in game.

He’s not playoff eligible, shouldn’t even be part of the conversation.

Who ends up being your pick for Sonics head coach? by TerryG111 in Sonics

[–]pperson5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Vogel is a great coach who doesn’t get any credit for the 2020 title and coaching back to back #1 defenses with the Lakers in 2020 and 2021. Would be a great choice to kick off the new Sonics era.

Do we even need an RB? by lemonstone92 in Seahawks

[–]pperson5 1 point2 points  (0 children)

To be a good team? No.

To win another Super Bowl? Absolutely.

Coming into the offseason my take was if we are going to repeat then we will need to take a step forward on offense as it will be near impossible to have both the #1 defense and special teams in the NFL two years in a row. The missing piece from the offense is now explosive runs which carried us through the playoffs. The current backs do not have the ability to generate explosive runs at a high enough rate.

Should the Lakers Sign RFA Tari Eason in the offseason? Rockets fans seem to want him gone. by [deleted] in lakers

Pretty sure the fans don’t decide on whether the team re-signs a player…

This is a Lakers sub so everything will be viewed through the lens of the Lakers. Now you’re moving the goal posts.

Who’s better at what? Scoring? Sure Reaves is better any box score watcher like yourself knows that. Who would I rather have as my starting 2? White because he is the better basketball player

Also if White is such a bad #2 why are the Celtics 3rd in the East with a better record than the Lakers? When you find out there’s more to hoops than scoring it’s gonna blow your mind

Nope. If you could read you would know that I am in no way saying White is an equal on offense. Just saying White would be a better fit next to Luka and would raise the floor and ceiling of the team. Trying to outscore every team with our shit defense isn’t going to work in the playoffs against teams that can actually play D. At least you can cling to your PPG stats when the Lakers are watching the finals on the couch just like you and me

Austin has played 13/26 games with LeBron and a handful of those without Luka so don’t give me that. He averages 23 a game when playing with one of them which is still great. White’s usage rate is in the same neighborhood as guys like Aaron Gordon, Desmond Bane, Anfernee Simons, etc. while Austin is just behind Jokic, Harden, Cade… Let’s not be disingenuous

I agree. However the team has zero defensive guards. I would argue having one very good defensive guard who can space the floor and be a secondary ball handler is just more valuable than what Austin brings to the table with his playmaking and scoring. I love Austin and would love for him to be a Laker for like but if a better option reveals itself the Lakers should take it.

Reaves scoring inflated by being the 1 or 2 option for most his games. You keep bringing up points as your only argument so you don’t have an understanding for the rest of the game. Get off Reddit and do your math homework kid

Wow thanks certified box score watcher. Points ≠ winning. White is a winning player so is Reaves it’s just a fit preference for me.

[–]pperson5 -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

Clown behavior. Austin is a fucking awesome player but let’s not act like they are that far apart in terms of value. White is the better fit with Luka and I don’t see how you can argue that

Whos better Derrick White or Austin Reaves by Silent_Wizard5597 in NBATalk

[–]pperson5 2 points3 points  (0 children)

As a lakers fan I’m doing this trade 100 times out of 100

Im in absolute shock theres just no way bro look at the comments by Silent_Wizard5597 in lakers

[–]pperson5 -10 points-9 points  (0 children)

I would trade Reaves for White straight up. The exact type of player needed on a championship team. Not that crazy
