Tillman was a top 15 most impactful defender this season while playing almost exclusively at center… I’d say his height isn’t a problem lol

We also need defense alonf aside AD bc he is the best off ball help defenders in the nba if they csn beat teams up gr8 if not defende is the priority

@@JSM24 meh, just regular season sauce

​@@JSM24but with his height, he won't be able to match or able to defend Jokic, Embiid, Durant, Antetokounmpo.

Jaxson Hayes wants to be out with the Lakers as he believes that his talent and ability is wasted since he didn't get the time he expects. I think, he's better off with the other team where he can show his potentials. His energy brings excitement to the team.

Great point heck Dallas has 2 big between him and Gafford

@@mikiec125 True!!!

Lively wouldn’t be as effective if not having Gafford. That’s a great 1,2 punch for them.

@@monsterjs2608 YES. Size and defense matters!!!! Both Dallas and Minnesota prove this!!!

Ham is already fired as head coach.

Yes. AD shared the court with Hayes/Wood for well over 200 combined minutes. They interchanged defensively so you can’t say one or the other exclusively played the 5, but none of their 2-big lineups were effective. The Hayes/AD lineups were some of their lowest rated lineups per net rating.

@@JSM24 Full force on Bitadze 4 m. Javale Mcghee bup. Keep Hayes he growing

@@JSM24 This is where statistics can be misleading. Was ugly but West leading basketball in the bubble. Today Nuggets have 3 players the height of AD in their lineup. Lakers lost on the boards, and only win was when they won the boards. I am doubtful the lakers optimized the point of a two big line up, to get low risk high reward 3 point shots and offensive boards that turn into easy points . Joker's POWER is the point. A non 7 footer cannot slow his jumper. I would have rather lost with more Hayes in that situation, which the Lakers should never have been in, as he has stepped up in the past and provides energy, and even "dumb" fouls can be part of momentum shifts. He may develop more skills. Lakers need excess big help, one a developer (Hayes right now) 2 established board dominance rim protection centers, 1 being AD obv, and a stretch 4/5 . Is there any data on Drummond and Joker?

@alg0rhythm

I like Colins game but I don’t think he would be good enough to play significant minutes.

I like Castleton, he reminds me of a young Mason Plumlee (albeit with a lower defensive IQ). I don’t think he’s reached “his ceiling” per say, but his main problem is that the game moves a bit too fast for him yet. Though, the Lakers holding onto him via a two-way contract all year despite him missing over a month with an injury is telling of their belief in him. I think he’ll get one more shot next season, though he will have a short leash.

Like castleton too. Remember zubac (like alot of young lakers late go ) looked slow /out outclassed but is doing OK with the clips. So keep developing for awhile and see.😊

​​@@markcepeda8144Yes! The team he is with now depends so much with him. It's just a matter of how much playing time the coach give so that players can prove their self and develop self confidence. That's why I understand why Jaxson Hayes wants to be out of the Lakers.

Castleton could be at least as good as walker Kessler if giving a chance. Was just as good in the sec as him. Ham just a dumbass never giving him a chance. How do you know if never giving chance. He started reddish and prince just give cc that same chance

well, stopping Jokic is a monstrous task. getting a backup center that fits with the team is priority.

What’s this obsession with stopping jokic , lakers need perimeter defense and a backup center

That’s a lie

HELL no. Id rather bring Jaxson Hayes back he would have more chemistry.

Same thing that happened with Mo Bamba

wisemen just tall thats all,

Oh hell nawww😂😂😂

The Lakers are a family owned businesses most teams are owned by sponsorship and corporations.

Every team has a maximum amount of money they can spend called the salary cap. Once you hit the salary cap limit, you can not sign any more players beyond the veteran minimum. However, if you are retaining your own players, you can spend beyond the cap to keep your own players. The Celtics can do so because they are keeping their own players they can't go out and add another star player.

@@Flush0000 Every team is in the luxury tax but only about 2 can really afford it. Everybody is not a billionaire some have just accumulated billions but it's not liquid. The Clippers owners have it and they loan! it out to others. Most teams are just like the WNBA.

He’s definitely not 6’4 pretty sure he’s 6’7 lol

The irony of this! Darvin Ham coached with Milwaukee for 5 years. In that time period, Giannis didn't play C. He played PF along side Lopez! Giannis won 2 MVP, 1 DPOY and Milwaukee won a title. The Lakers won a title in 2020 and went away from AD at PF. Imagine what the Lakers would have done having AD playing PF the last 3 years. I know the NBA has changed with small. The perfect play for AD and the Lakers should have been that the game always start with AD at PF next to a C. This also changed depending on the opponent like if LA is playing Minnesota. Most teams in the NBA today aren't starting two 7 footers like Minnesota. The Lakers should be starting a C with a back C/PF that plays 20 to 30 alongside AD. Those minutes change depending on foul trouble, injury, AD resting or AD just taking a day off. That is how the Lakers lineup should have been the last 3 years.

If we sign Kevin Love he would be the missing piece to a championship 🏆 - 🤡

Sorry but no brotha

No one's getting Dwight

hell. no.

Wood averaged over 17 mpg, not 12. Part of it was Ham/Lakers style of play, but the even bigger part was Wood simply not making open shots, along with trying to force things offensively. Which, made him “fit out” rather than “fitting in”.

Dwight Howard is 40 years old and hasn’t been in the league in years 😂

@@alchemist2394 beggars cant be choosers :) , he's still in shape too...lol

40 is the new 30 if you take care of your body. Howard is a big body & he's good to go.

​@lilpuppetforchrist4499 No, it doesn't work like that what 40 year olds do you know playing like a 30 year old besides Lebron.
