"Great offseason pickup, great player that sometimes reminds you of Davis" but somehow that doesn't move the needle for the Lakers? Um, if he provides just as much production as he did for the Mavs and can show some effort on defense he more than moves the needle for the Lakers…this is Malik Monk and Shroder moment. Ball out and get a bigger deal. He makes the Lakers dangerous as a pick and pop, pick and roll or corner 3 offense weapon.
I think for the money its an exceptional move especially if he can really lock in on the defensive end, hes shown hes capable of it when he feels like it and with the burden not really on him he could just try be decent on both ends and make an impact when needed
He is just depth at the forward positions and he probs coming off the bench for BRON TBH not AD to keep scoring up off the bench and letting bron rest more
i for sure got him off bench cuz, i want vando starting for defensive puroses, the starting lineup will get picked on defensively, but vando will help for sure, lmk ur thoughts on my opinion. Plus if wood starts hayes will get minutes and I dont think hes ready to play at a high level
wood also sucks at setting screens as a big, which is gonna severely limit his time on the floor. i suspect he won't see any meaningful playoff minutes, but it's a good depth pickup for the regular season
Good points. But it's common knowledge AD best at power forward when he can focus on help defense, and bulking up to play center destroyed his three pointer.

I'd play AD at the 5 and put Wood at the 4. But that's just me
They probably want to use him to abuse jokic.

So it’s a 1 year deal for the lakers to have a new scapegoat
Yessir!! L.A all the way!
Only haters will say it didn’t move the needle. 😂😂😂😂
Nobody's talking about dame to raptors
Doesn’t move the needle. Bro sounds drunk
Yeah? You're just jealous
Wow🎉
As Lakers fan, I am so excited!! Hope Ad Can play at least 60 games
I need Gabe Vincent as a starter!!!!!! I’ll still prolly consider trading D.Lo
He’s basically a more versatile and better Thomas Bryant
Come playoff time, he’ll get his minutes cut. But I can see him being very valuable similar in the way Thomas Bryant was last regular season
The lakers have gone crazy this offseason, but I think they won’t make it past the 2nd round this time

Rip mavs
love the content bro keep working

biggest steal wtf are the mavs doing
Sign Kelly ounce jr next
Lakers ain’t making it to the playoffs.
Still crazy he turned down $5mil/years from the Warriors. But I'm a Lakers fan, so I'm not complaining
Ad doesn’t wanna play center tho, so if wood isn’t coming off the bench it’s not gonna work
Lebron would be crazy to take this year off now
It definitely moves the needle, the Lakers craved size and shooting last year. This guy is a knock down shooter that will spread the defence
This guy is crazy if he don't think this moves the needle for the Lakers
Were getting good players for cheap
It doesn’t move the needle??? Bruh like really who else we gota get
The Best and deepest roster in the NBA, I'm ready for the Lakeshow 💪😜
Lakers in 5
Ngl the lineup they should run
Gabe vincent
Austin
Bron

Jackson Hayes

LeGM getting all the solid players from around the league to try to get another easy ring and say he carried😂😂
Ok literally something had to happen cause no way he went for that little when he can average 20 ppg and 10 reb he had to slap a coach on the mavs
So the MAVS couldn’t have gotten anything for him?
Let LeGM cook
Tryna set a trend
He’s a pretender
I can’t believe “The lakers got a center”
This is super good for us
Just put Vanderbilt of the bench and put Christian Wood
I don’t care abt his flaws 17-7 and a block a night to back up anthony davis and sometimes make the sarting rotation for 2,800,500 a year is wild
Lakers in 4
All this to get swept by the nuggies again 🤣

The Lakers got a CENTER 🎶
