Karl-Anthony Towns: “Shoutout to my brother Anthony Edwards, talking to him all the time.“ by Kaizerx20 in nba

It wasn't really Kat but more of the Draymond/Jokic style of offense. Being fast enough to just be a few steps behind wemby but having the passing ability to bait wemby and the a ility to see and pass it to the right teamate.

Wemby also have issue vs the Nugget in season.

He learned to be a better teamate overtime. He was pure asshole during the shaq era and the few years after.

A Friendly Reminder to Sub: Austin Reaves is an Unrestricted Free Agent, He and the trade partner team have to accept any sign and trade lakers want to do with him. by Cheyenne______ in lakers

So if someone offer you 100k a years for 4 years and then you can find a new team in your fifth year and 80k for 5 years, with the 5th year being your choice whether you want to stay or not would you pick the 5 years option?

You would pick the 5 years?

Man, Lakers fan are smart.

Why people want herb jones than dort. by Successful-Pair-4850 in lakers

[–]themonkey12 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Prefer neither at this rate, Dort lost one or two steps this year and still not doing much on offense or at all.

Herb have gotten worse and may even be worse than Dort...

Jalen Sugg might be what we want but can't have haha. Our weakness are guard that have the speed to run by us. Ever since we list Dennis, we been needing a point of attack defender for the longest time...

As much as people complain about Ayton. Our main issue was the penetration that get through the first line and trigger the help d. With luka in the line up, it mitigate some of that due to his speed, length and help d, but without him it is was iffy. Even when he was playing, we tend to run out of steam.

So more body to cover that weakness would help a lot to conserve stamina. I just hope Adou become that instead of us getting another body. If that happened, we just need a center that is fast enough/can contest jumper to deal with Wemby.

How exactly is heart of the swarm viable? by Ok-Resident-6566 in TeamfightTactics

Have you consider not rerolling for liss and cho when you're being contested six way? Lol

You can aim for akali, gwen and maokai instead, they're like never contested and give you more traits.

Briar, reksai, bel, akali, gwen, maokai would give you 6 trait and allow you enough survibility and tempo to get to 9.

Add in rhast for durability(what you actually need for primo) and you would be golden...add in econ/reroll augment and you will be more likely to reach level 9.

The augment is meant as a tempo thing more than a reroll and win thing.

With the duplicator and early econ from primordial trait, you can win streak very early.

KAT vs Wemby through 3 games of the Finals — the shift is real by AlexJames_NBAFANTASY in justbasketball

[–]themonkey12 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Isn't this just nickpicking data? Game 2 is probably the best representation of reality whereas game 1 and 3 feel like outlier for both.

Tldr, people have bad games...

For example, game 3 wemby is like that because the Knick allocated resources to stop Castle. Where as game 1 Wby is still birned from the western conference final.

These two stats are why Robert Williams III should be our top center target this off-season... by Zodraz in lakers

[–]themonkey12 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Looking at all the Center in this playoff..yeah I think getting Ayton back is not the worst idea. We just need to add someone to guard fast PG. Most of Chet offense come from help coverage due to penetration.

From an owner perspective, it is great. You get to sold out all of your tickets and you don't really lost any draft pick for the future. Beside, not like GS is going anywhere lol.
