Lakers best player last year defensive rating was 43% which was below league average, JJ need to focus on defense too. And make all players especially the superstars accountable in playing defense.
Go get Lauri Markkanen. We are in the Age of the International Center, and the Finnish Center has improved in every statistical category every season he's been in the league.
IT IS OVER! STOP THE LIES! NOBODY WANTS TO PLAY WITH LEBRON LET ALONE TEAMMATES ALREADY ON THE ROSTER THAT DO NOT WANT TO WIN WITH LEBRON. LEBRON IS TAINTED GOODS AND DEAD WEIGHT; HE FORCED THE LAKERS TO SIGN HIS WORTHLESS SON INSTEAD OF A DRAFTING A PLAYER THAT I WILL HELP THE LAKERS WIN. LAKERS JUST GOT SWEPT THEN TURNED AROUND HIRED JJ REDDICK, DRAFTED BRONNY, STAR PLAYERS AND ROLE PLAYERS ARE TURNING DOWN THE LAKERS AND SIGNING FOR LESS MONEY IN SMALLER MARKET CITIES, YET YOU CLOWNS THINK THE LAKERS WILL WIN 😅💯
I love running more actual plays now all JJ has to do is play the right young people ex Max Christie and Vando. That will easily give us 5 more wins than last season.
The most important thing JJ said was about the stars buying in to the how he wants the offense to run. Our offense under Ham was pretty good, but obviously when a play was well defended, we were supposed to go to our motion offense, but LBJ preferred to play hero ball. This was especially the case late in big games. So I know AD is buying in, and D’lo took a few shots at Ham, implying that he just lets LBJ do whatever he wants on offense instead of run a system like the Kings, Nuggets, and Warriors do. I’m sure everyone on the Lakers is excited about the idea, because it implies less hero ball from LBJ, but is LBJ excited? Well LBJ always plays within the system for most of the game, but it seems like he just can’t help himself sometimes, and this is where we lost a decent amount of games in the 4th quarter. So for me, Ham did have a motion offense, but it didn’t matter when it counted, because LBJ did what he wanted. JJ holding LBJ accountable is the best thing he can do for not only our offense, but also our defense. When LBJ is playing the right way, we are very hard to beat.
JJ sounds like he can be one of the good coaches of all time when he's talking about his coaching plans. I hope he backs it up and actually has a good feel for in-game and game to game adjustments. 🤷♂🤷♂🤷♂🤷♂
Yes, No blinding courts!
More sets, more movement for your forty year old guy? More activity for your other guy that abslutely dissapears in fourth quarters? For the same team, same players that gassed out every third quarter last season? Yeah, good luck with that.
Fuck the in season tournament. Focus on what matters.
Where is Steven Adams?
Jj gonna be disappointed when he finds out Lebron is the one who like to freelance

The cup sucks. Poorly executed. No real reward for winning. Winner should have home court adv. Something. Otherwise why make a deal out of it. It took me out of it.
So basically, they are going to play like real team basketball.
Won't last with Lebron on the team.
Lakers are a joke. Everybody knows it. It's a circus. Kobe would have had a better handle on this
YEAH GET A REAL POINT GUARD AND KEEP THE BALL OUT OF BRONS HANDS AND PLAY SOME DEFENSE UNLOCK THE DAMN DEFENSE
I think the Laker court popped and was the best. Call me biased.😂
SGA, Caruso, JDub, Chet & Hartenstein
To much plan but nothing happened at the end nothing deal to any team . That was Pelinka slow learning the NBA deal nada
Trevor, I love you dearly, but you don’t have to say our old friend every time you talk about an X Laker it’s kind of annoying
Laker prediction 10 seed and elimination in first round for the next 4 years
Didn't Ham make promises? And what happened? J J has coached 0 NBA games. And people are discussing how great he'll make the Lakers. It's easy to look at what someone else did or didn't do. Dalton played great on the offensive side. But is Austin Reeves on defense. The Lakers need to make a big move. Because other teams got better. You on here exciting about something you've never seen work. Goofy
Please fired rob pelinka
Max can be a solid contributor! He never had the chance to realize his potential with Darvin. The size of his new contract is a good sign they recognize that now.
That if doin alotta work
Silver is such a joke
So many people literally hate the NBA now compared to before
Lakers should have had a +1W For winning the tournament
That’s what they deserved
JUST MORE EMPTY PROMISES AND WORDS FROM THE FRONT OFFICE….I RESPECT THE SCAM JEANIE IS RUNNING ON THIS GUILLABLE FANBASE
The winner of the Cup should get one of these possible options:
– to move up a spot in playoff position
– get first round homecourt advantage regardless of seeding
– pick their first round opponent in the playoffs
Sometime like would give it enormous value and have huge implications.
