Do they not realize Marcus smart was our only defender last year
Remove all the Buss drama, Bob Iger is 75 with 0 experience, it's real nerve-wracking.
No..both AR and Luka have to be masked on defense. Its not a exaggeration
This team is trash
If lakers make the playoffs i can predict the future…who ever plays the lakers…find austin reaves and attack ….Ar is bbq chicken wings in the playoffs
Lakers fan thinking nobody has to play defense as long as walker kessler is out there 😂 they also expect him to shoot 80% from 3 this year based off last years 5 game season. This roster is so bad it’s a bunch of passed on bench guys with bad prove it deals Luka is going back to Dallas asap.
Everyone is always so low on us. Then we get to February and all the same sorry ass people are talking about how we are contenders haha
It'll be fun returning to posts like this after they win 57 games.
People don’t wanna give the lakers credit. The defense definitely got better. Marcus smart was the only defender we had last year. Now we have Walker Kessler who people clearly didn’t watch the dude is a defensive monster and led the league in rebounds, and can rim protect. Matisse thybulle who can defend at an elite level. Ziaire Williams who’s a good defender. Kevon looney is a good defender as welll. Thiero and Cameron Carr are young and still developing but are good defenders too. Quentin grimes can play great defense. Jarred Vanderbilt is still her and can defend. The only place the lakers lack defense is the backcourt. Other than that they will be good defensively. People hate the lakers.
16:12 🔥💯
They have much better defensive players. Its not even close. We have like 2 1/2 Smarts now. Also, we got way more cardio and quickness. Offense is the question.
Lakers will be a top 5 defense
Luka has never made any signal other then he wants to be a Laker. He has invested in the community (LA Youth Sports groups, Wildfires) and also waited patiently for rebuild. He also made it super obvious that he was going to resign (never played media game) and signed the morning of day #1. He has a history of being super loyal.
We were told for 2 years that Bronny was a lockdown defender. Now it's crickets. It was all Klutch propaganda. Lil Bronny has been left out in the rain.
Two years from now the Lakers should look to trade grimes or mamu contracts to the expansion teams, if they arent producing
Lakers are rebuilding and they don't want to admit it I'm looking at 47 wins
First of all the Lakers were never a good defensive team last year. Smart saved yawl. But I do believe your defense will be way better and energetic this year round.
I think because we added more offensive options guys will be able to expend more energy on defense and we will also be better because of that.
If i had a nickel for every time lakers fans afe hopeful with team rob built post 2020 championship
It's funny how everyone wants to use Rui to prop up Mamu. He's not replacing Rui. He is essentially replacing Lebron James in the starting lineup until proven otherwise. Why not use Lebron James ? 😂😂😂
