It's impossible to dislike having this guy on your team. |

Lance was a good signing, especially at 1 year....even though the most common thing you hear in sports news is our roster and signings were horrible, overall I think they fit pretty well for where this team is at right now |

This has been shocking, and I love the heart that Lance shows every night. The trolling is hilarious, and I get up and do the air guitar wherever I am when he hits a big shot ![](images/smiles/icon_lol.gif) |

Every time he shoots a 3 I think it's going in. |

I'm glad we kept him instead of Beasley. _________________ Nobody in the NBA can touch the Laker brand, which, like the uniform color, is pure gold. |

Been a while since we've had a guy like that. Just wish he would play under control all the time, also wish luke's rotations were consistent |

Good game Lance. He scored 9 points in 3 minutes and ended up with 14 points off the Bench. _________________ Nobody in the NBA can touch the Laker brand, which, like the uniform color, is pure gold. |

He hit a few when we were down by 18, contributed to the win. |

The bulk of his minutes should come with Lebron on the floor. Lebron needs a player who will hit those kickouts consistently and Lance needs someone like Lebron to control the offense to keep him from doing too much. _________________ (bleep) Kawhi |

Luke needs to give Lance KCP, and Hart's minutes.
His effort is consistent, he can knock down open shots and break a defense down. He's not a guy you should expect to get production from with spot minutes.
If we're going to make a push for the playoffs he needs to be a big part of what we're doing. Warts and all. |

https://clutchpoints.com/lakers-news-lance-stephenson-went-home-and-cried-after-los-angeles-was-eliminated-from-playoffs/
Quote: | Lance Stephenson was determined to get his shot at the NBA Finals this past offseason, and he saw no better path to get there but to play for the Los Angeles Lakers and join a cast spearheaded by LeBron James, who had reached the last eight Finals.
“He makes it to the playoffs every year. He makes it to the Finals. So I mean my goal was, ‘Oh yeah, I definitely want to be a part of that.’ Help him out and just fight with him.”
Despite the Lakers getting farther and farther away from the playoffs with every loss, Stephenson believed they still had a shot. The night the Lakers were officially eliminated from the playoffs, Stephenson drove home to his apartment in Playa Vista and cried.
The shifty guard knew he’d have this one shot to ride out to the grandest stage the NBA has to offer, and the regret of not being able to make it into the playoffs was manifested in tears.
“My goal in the NBA was to make it to the Finals. I got so close with the Pacers. You don’t have that many chances of getting there. I felt like this was the one right here.”

Damn... that’s depressing to read, I hope a team like the Warriors or Sixers signs him this summer so he can taste the NBA finals. |

Definitely wouldn't mind him back for the minimum. He's basically what Clarkson was for us. |

And not only the injuries but Michael Beasleys Mother dying sent him into a depressive spiral that made him useless for us this season.

Injuries did kill this team if you look at how many games were missed by our starters |
