From Byron to Luke to Frank.... it doesn't matter who's in charge, there is always a veteran player I don't like taking playing time from younger dudes I think should play. This year, it looks like it'll be Rondo over Cook.

The only thing that matters is AD’s injury.

Even if the lakers struggle in the regular season...as long as they make the playoffs healthy, I’ll take LBJ and AD against anyone


Yeah, I wonder what douchebag in their social media dept posted that.


Preseason is best way to gel/establish patterns with a new roster. Remember the "lets not overreact to the preseason" with the 2012-2013 Lakers. How did that end?

Vogel should be doing what a lot of teams are doing. Practice WHAT YOU ARE going to do in the regular season during the preseason. especially in the 1st 2 quarters, then give 2nd half game time the fringe players to see what diamonds you have have.


I don’t think a successful preseason would have changed much, if anything. That just wasn’t a team built to succeed. Nash was old and fragile. Dwight was immature and injured. Kobe was past his prime and so was Gasol.

Different rosters and situations that can’t be compared just because preseason isn’t successful.

I agree. If we were a veteran team with continuity you don’t mind seeing the young guys getting more time in preseason. But we aren’t and have core players who need to get familiar with new systems and each other.

Found it amusing AD says he likes to play the 4 but will the 5 if need be and in a preseason he starts at the 5.

I felt like the Lakers shouldn’t have played this game. Besides the AD injury, after seeing Lebron mss those 2 layups, seem to be the Lakers we’re fatigued and playing like a team that was in China too long.

1 game was enough.

The "consider this a warning, NBA" one? Trudell has to be the one running the twitter account, it's embarrassing sometimes.

I was impressed with the hustle of the (no name) Nets, they beat the Lakers when their best two players were on the floor and killed the the remaining veteran stiffs that we were so high on...
