It’s so weird seeing AD so passive. It seems like he checked out.


IMO, I have a feeling he'd rather the Lakers miss the play-in. lol


Maybe he wants to be dealt to Chicago?

Shrug, I'm just tossing crap on the wall at the moment. No clue what is going on. I'll stick with my "needs a Center on court with him" reasoning since it's probably as good as any.

Mentally, I saw some Kobe. The desire to take over during Winning Time and not being afraid of the moment.

We absolutely need to sign another center

They are starting to play Anthony Davis, and Wenyen Gabriel at the same time

Reaves literally won this game. He continues to be the only guy out there playing like he gives an ish.

Another good performance from Rui too - he has quietly been good the last few games which is a good sign.

Bad sign - Beasley continues to suck (and I was on his bandwagon) and D-Lo still has a bad tendency to take hero shots at bad times.

Check the stats bro, DLO was great tonight. Very efficient. Even had 2 blocks.

LakerSD was at this game with super close seats (like almost famous, but not really )

-Lakers get blown out if it wasn’t for Reaves
-Rui with some critical minutes and scoring when Reaves was out.
-DLO with some critical tough makes
-Rumblings and chatter in the crowd about how AD isn’t a star anymore.
-Vanderbilt and Beasley have regressed

Tbh this team has more talent and depth than the 2019-20 team. The difference is AD and even Lebron just aren’t those dudes consistently anymore.

start freaking reaves next game and let him be like lin in the linsanity run. Kid has the momentum now.


Reaves is much better than Lin. Im tired of people acting as if this is some fluke (bleep) from Reaves. He's a legit baller it's not a D'antoni system thing letting Lin run wild.

Reaves is a really good player.

Not to take anything from Lin i believe he was a good player as well.

But Reves is just better. Much better.

I love it. On the post-game show no one wants to "compare" Reaves to cp3, Nash, and pistol Pete but the similarities are there. Soon my friends...soon

I dont think it matters....all these white players are head and shoulders above Reaves and all of them were either #1 or #2 at their positions at one point in time in their careers. Greats are being heavily underestimated. You tell a Cavs fan to compare Mark Price to Austin Reaves and you will get laughed right out of the room. Same with Manu, West, Nash or any other great.

Comparing Price to Reaves is almost as bad as comparing MarShon Brooks to Kobe.

Lebron at 40 i still trust more than AD. AD has been shameful. Lebron healthy still hasn't played with this new roster.

Sorry not sorry, Reaves reminds me a lot of Nash. His stop and go game is ridiculous. Always makes the right play. And best of all, never plays with fear. AD plays scared. That’s obvious. Reaves should be our starting 2. He should be just that next year. And I envision many all star appearances for him.

Yeah I'm with you. I just find it so funny when basketball comps, sometimes from reputable guys, have such a striking physical resemblance.

Reminds me a lot of Lou Williams, with obviously more playmaking and defensive value.

Glad we won the game! And, much needed! AD was bad on offense, but played well on defense. The game was weird, overall. Hoping AD makes a bounce back.

So an all star player? If Lou had playmaking and defense, he would be an all star. Lol
