The lakers fans are gonna say the commissioner vetod another trade
That second trade to add a legitimate 7-footer and young beast like Mark Williams was absolutely huge for the Lakers.
They have no size or muscle inside the paint now. If I'm the Lakers I would've ignored the failed physical. Let him rehab.
Anthony Davis is a great player and came up big yesterday. But he also left the game with a non-contact injury.
AD is going to age really fast in the next couple of years. He's injury prone and six years older than Luka as well.
Some Dallas fans wish the NBA had vetoed that trade like the Chris Paul (in his prime) to Lakers trade. Pau Gasol was going to Houston.
It was funny seeing all of those Dallas fans protesting the game yesterday outside the arena. Dallas beat us and AD played like a star.
Only issue with Anthony Davis, like I said, is he's six years older than Luka and AD is going to age really fast over the next few years. Between Anthony Davis and Kyrie Irving I'm not sure which all-star veteran is going to age faster. Both are a ticking time bomb, ego wise (they quit on teams before). I highly doubt it's going to work out for Dallas in the long run with those two players. The Lakers, on the other hand, put themselves in a really nice position to compete for many years to come after LeBron retires. But now they lack size inside.
We really need Fred VanVleet back from injury. Jabari Smith Jr. as well. We're getting smacked around on this six-game losing streak.
We have no point guard depth. FVV is hit or miss from three but he does all the other winning things you want a true point guard to do.
In fact Kyrie Irivng shooting 4-for-15 yesterday (0-for-4 threes) allowed the Rockets to get back in the game. 15-0 run. But we just ran out of gas in the 4th quarter.
We blew it guys. 2nd seed is lost. We're going to likely end up in that tough 4 vs. 5 matchup in the first round. Assuming we lift ourselves up from rock bottom soon.
