It's hard to make allstar as a guard in the West... Too loaded.
Laker nation has his back in the voting. I guarantee you, if he continues progressing at this pace going into next season, Reaves will be AT LEAST top 2 guard in all star voting.
The bottom line is we gotta pay BOTH dlo and AR this summer. Can't let dlo walk for nothing. Same for austin.
Yeah, the jury is still out as to if they will indeed be the back court of the future, but the timing of their contracts means Jeanie is just gonna have to roll the dice and crack open her checkbook.
AD, dlo, austin and a new max (or multiple solid players) when LBJ retires means we hopefully will not have to go into rebuild mode. Keep it rolling like we used to. Retool, not rebuild.

I have a hard time imagining that Reaves will get more votes than Curry and Luka.
Even if he did, the inclusion of media and player voting effectively stops fans from stuffing the ballot box.
His best shot will be to make the team as a reserve. Right now, he is a long way from deserving that, though.

He's getting to the FT line at a Jerry West/Kobe-like clip, at a fraction of the usage. _________________ On Lakersground, a concern troll is someone who is a fan of another team, but pretends to be a Lakers fan with "concerns".

Is it wrong of me .. I loved watching young Austin get stripped by Sengun on that drive.. He was so committed to the drive he looked awfully confused the ball was missing
the difference of AR vs othe foul merchant is he is not just fishing for a foul but he is also looking to finish it and get a bucket. Kid is so consistent and efficient that you will know that he will contribute every game at both end.
He had that deal since last year. He has an account on Chinese version of tiktok too. This dude is very popular over there.
Not sure about the details of the contract though

Am I the only one who feels like Reaves would still be better off as a sixth man?
I like the idea of him leading the bench unit with one of DLO and LeBron so that he won't have to defer and he can be aggressive and play his full game.
Plus if Beasley is ever going to play well, he needs to be out there with DLO, LeBron and AD so he can get the best looks possible. _________________ Lakers 49ers Chargers Dodgers

Disagree. There's a flow with a DLO-AR backcourt that we haven't seen in 50 years. A pair of guards that are offensive threats at all 3 levels, and can play make while not sucking on defense.
Schroder/Beasley make sense as the 2nd unit guards. _________________ On Lakersground, a concern troll is someone who is a fan of another team, but pretends to be a Lakers fan with "concerns".
