    Both Doncic and Trae Young are great. I would Probably rather have Doncic, but Trae Young really is a young Curry.

    Lakers are good. Bradley and Green were both good signings. Both play defense. Green can really shoot and Bradley isn’t horrible from the outside either. LeBron actually has good role players around him for once.

    Davis is obviously good, but they weren’t going to be a threat without filling in the team around them. LeBron has typically sucked at that because he pressures his teams to sign guys that are either from Klutch or his buddies. Not this Lakers team tho.

    I think where Trae and Curry really differ is that Trae is such a dynamic and elite passer. He’s more of a ball dominant guard than Curry is too.

    I’d rather have Luka tho. Both are incredible

    The Lakers should sign Jamal Crawford

    Dude has never won anything. He’s a stats guy. Consummate pro, but never played any defense and really has never been efficient.
    The only decent team he’s ever been on was the LA Clippers. MAYBE his Atlanta team was ok. He’s the depth piece that gets you buckets during the season so you can rest LeBron etc for hard playoff minutes. He’s instant offense. And a professional no drama presence in the locker room.
    I disagree that a 40+ year old Crawford adds much, of any value to a team like the Lakers that are chasing a title.

    The question here is how much does Bron have left in the tank? I think they're going to coast through the season. Will LeBron be able to play at this level in May and June?

    If he is, and Davis stays healthy, they're the champs.

    Like you said, check back in 40 games.

    Golden State is done. Clippers will be a challenge but Lakers will have the defense to beat them and Howard’s resurgence has been amazing. He will fuck ass for a ring

    Howard made the finals at Orlando
    I never said he was as good as a formal #1 pick.

    But he’s one of the most prolific scorers in NBA history. Now more than ever this is an offense based league. That doesn’t change until the playoffs.
