the problem is that the 3 is vast majority of Lonzo's offensive game....it is a very small part of Ingrams |
Right but it has a great effect on the team dynamic. He needs to shoot and make more, so does Lonzo |

lebron just robbed the lakers and the fans of $154 million. It's not even exciting or fun watching him play. All he does is mope and hang his head. |

The best of our core is a Net |
yeah, but he was not a leader....not a guy that could ever lead his team into the playoffs |

The rest of them aren’t much better. Lonzo and McGee’s “music”, Lance’s “dancing”, Kuzma’s AppStore...they all would rather be Hollywood than win basketball games.

what do you mean Everything he wants?
He might be getting paid more but thats not what im talking about...We dont have any legitimate talent on this team..Im high on Lonzo and Ingram but they haven't shown anything resembling elite potential. Games i have wathced Lebron put his teammates in positions to suceed they just cant convert open shots and gimmies. We should just trade him and im serious about that. People here dont want him and are willing to ignore Everything else just to bash on him..Might aswell trade him for something. Doesn't even have to be good just get rid of him and we can be back to where we were. |

I don't know man...I love Ingram, but I am not close to trusting that 3 point shot.....I worry more volume is going to lead to many more 1 of 6 nights than 3 or 4 of 6 nights....at least this season. |

14th place instead of 11th?

| What about this notion of "Playoff" Rondo? Does it technically have to be the playoffs? Critical MUST WIN games to get into the playoffs doesn't quite activate Playoff Rondo? What a load of crock. |

It’s his mechanics. I promise he’ll never be a good shooter with that form. |

is he the biggest problem...no, not close....but his absolute refusal to give any effort on most defensive possessions sure is not helping.
I do not think he is even 90% with that groin....most of what he is doing is from a stationary position. If that is true....he should just sit because we are not making the playoffs if he can not go full speed anyway. |

| This team has to be the most unlikeable Lakers team. Team acts like they can flip the switch against bad teams whenever they want and think they are contenders, but they just stink. LeBron is a non-factor on defense. BI can't spot up. Kuz can't guard the interior or the perimeter. Rondo isn't needed and just takes the ball out of the scorers hands and cheats on defense every time. McGee stopped caring once Chandler started to shine and Zubac began eating away at his minutes. Hart can't stop fouling 3 point shooters. Lonzo isn't a scoring threat. KCP is just KCP. Lance is the best player for the other team each game. Chandler is a skeleton. Reggie B joined too late. This team is just annoying. Either be terrible or a real contender than this mediocre. |

| Can’t blame Bron for this one. This is a complete team loss. It seems like this team is either mentally weak or unprepared or both. I look at the Nets and yes they’re playing in the east but they’ve had a lot of injuries and they’re playing hard every single game. This team just looks like they’re playing an exhibition game most nights. It’s embarrassing. |

Except oddly he's shooting better than your idol Kobe Bryant from the field. |

Yeah sure why not you know why? because then when we look like a D League team we wont have 1 guy to blame...Trade him for something decent and we wont have any expectations. As i said..Lebron cant save this mess nobody can it's impossible...And i dont trust in Magic or Pelinka to hit it big come offseason...Trade him and fire everybody in managment along with Luke and rebuild in a legitimate way. Everybody follows the same Blueprint except us we must have the most stunted people running this franchise. |

| At some point, there's going to be an implosion. Lebron is probably going to voice his frustration in a way that is going to get some attention. This whole thing is a timebomb about to explode. |

Guy was moved to the bench (which I still don't understand). I get that they're trying to surround LBJ by shooters and making him the starting PG, but LBJ just doesn't have it the gas in the tank anymore to be the primary PG on this team.
When they traded for Bullock, I was calling for Kuzma to be our super 6th man.
Even Rondo's body language is indicative of the fact that he doesn't like that move. |
