"Like backup center angst, coaching angst. Starting lineup angst, all sorts of eggs. And then my takeaway from this and hopefully I'm going to say more revealing things over the course of this conversation, kind of feel like the sixers are who we thought they were at the end of all of this? Yeah, the angst, I feel like believe me, I pay special attention to sixers of angst. It's the best basketball angst there is. I feel like it's died down in the last two weeks, in part because of how dominant embiid has been and how fun that's been to watch. And de Anthony Melton has been big to bias Harris is doing exactly what they want to buy his hairs to do. And harden has come back and looked pretty good and they've strung off someone. So I feel like the angst is the Doc angst has declined the B ball Paul mantra's Herald angst. There's some angst that's just not worth it. It's just not worth if you're angry about Paul Reed versus montrezl harrell versus PJ Tucker at the 5. It's worth getting a little angry about. It's not if you're typing a mailbag question to somebody subject line Doc Rivers is an idiot, Paul Reed rocks. Like you need to reevaluate some parts of your life. You're just subtweeting guest John hollinger right here. Or I guess you can't just make Twitter jokes about the sixers. It's triggering. Twitter, Twitter, 6 or you can't do it. I don't even know where I was going. I think the angst has declined a little bit and there's now, I feel a building confidence of exactly what you just said of, hey, wait a second. We still have hardened embiid two man game. It's not the most artful thing in the world, but Joel is clearly the guy, James knows Joel's the guy. If they get a switch, more often than not, the ball is going to go to embiid at the nail and it's not going to be hard in dribbling 17 times and taking a step back three while Joelle stands are like, hey, it's just me the dude who scores 50 every other game seemingly over here. Me. And it's fine. By the way, it's fine for James Harden to do that a decent amount of time. The 6 I looked up today, they're averaging 1.22 points per possession on hardened isolations. That's like beyond elite. That's amazing. It may not look great. It may frustrate embiid, but in the right doses, I've given up on the sixers offense ever looking good and flowing properly and involving maxi at the appropriate level when he's on the floor with the two stars. It's just not going to happen. And maybe that's okay. Maybe embiid and harden are just so good that they can play, if not completely your turn my turn, then something like it, and that's fine.

"Hoping that Thomas Bryant can get back from ACL rehab before January. So December for Thomas Bryant, who's been a nice fine for them coming off of being released by the Lakers. As I remember very vividly. Yeah. A couple good couple good big man finds for them with toss Brian. Daniel gafford last year who had picked up from the bulls, he really took off. And then another former Laker mantras Herald playing out of his mind to open this season. Looks I was going to say it looks like you did with the Clippers movies, but even better than he was with the Clippers. He's been great. Yeah, the hachimura situation is odd. There's been a lot of details on what went on here that caused him to message. You know, they've said personal reasons, but usually when it's been this long, we have some sense of what went on but he also there was reporting out of the Washington media that he had been back, but working out on his own and hadn't been working out with the team and those kind of things. So don't exactly know what is going on with that one. But yeah, odd situation. But what's going to be the thing to monitor there in Washington is, how does he crack the rotation now? Because you've got Kuzma playing well as the starting four. You've got Harold basically eating up all the other minutes there. Cobble Pope, holding down the starting three spot. Any audia is kind of the backup for both Kuzma and Caldwell Pope. And then when Burton's has been recently with an injury, but when he gets back, he's kind of the other guy in the mix there. So I'm just not sure how easy it's going to be for hachimura to force his way back into the rotation because he's not somebody who can slide down and play the two at all. So I'm probably taking care of someone else will probably be out at some point, but that's the thing I'll be watching for. One in if they do everybody healthy, how does entrepreneur get himself back in into the rotation? And remember, what we always say, you can never have too much wing depth in today's NBA. So like you said, I think it will work itself out because you're going to need other wings at some point, even if he's not being put right back into the starting lineup. Speaking of perfect segment, wing depth, your team is struggling with some with some winged depth right now..

"Believe who's going to be the other two guys two of compliment that trio but the two guys who are playing the best that game that day. Are you going to choose between maliki. Monk we ellington kendrick done at shooting guard position. Maybe have carmelo anthony. Maybe you can't because he can't play the defense but if he's going to be having a hot hand from that game and having a little bit of a throwback bowman are you gonna be able to play him At the end of the game wouldn't with they d and lebron and westbrook as i mentioned before it's just gonna be a game to game basis like a kendrick nunn is hot. You're going to them in their maliki. Monk is hot. and you're gonna keep him in there so it's gonna be a rotation of of front court back court players to backward players to complement westbrook. Ad and lebron during crunch time important game. All of the things will be worked out and all of those things are going to be worked out that they have a lotta time to do it. So you've got that damian. Lillard bradley beal staying with their team. Bela washington on wizards man. I tell you ed nice of them. You know tommy sheppard did a job of getting rid of westbrook and getting rid of john wall so there were two of the worst contracts in recent seasons in the nba. That the wizards had now. They don't have have a little bit more flexibility. They traded for cal. Kouzmine mantras herald con kentavious caldwell-pope lot forwards on the team from our wizards though. You'll coups maruti hutch bora than the via the first round draft pick from last season herald. Dallas bretons coming. Back's also have a new coach in west until junior. I mean another situation. Where tommy sheppard is just trying to build a squad going to be somewhat relevant that really championship. Contender just tried to appease bradley bill to say. Hey guess what. We're going to be able to make the playoffs. We ain't gonna go anywhere. We're not going to be fixtures in terms of Being real rivals or really team a team that can play for a championship or anything like that. But you know if bradley beal is content with being a team that's going to be fighting for playing games and losing a first round of the playoffs. Every year will then tell michelle. Shepherd is building that kind of Team in washington. So there you go and damian lillard at i mentioned before but he asked for trade portland stumbles the season. You remember that post conference at the end of last season. We speaking about damn. We couldn't even go to game seven against the denver nuggets team. That was missing jamal. Murray in will barton or saw a murray and will barton and we still couldn't beat these guys in. I was absolutely outstanding. One of my doing though. The measure before those guys after trades. Yeah okay five philadelphia five but guess what you're gonna have to contend with. Maybe a golden state of minnesota new york next toronto. And guess what you take a look at golden state. They're too young player that they that they drafted you. Take a look at minnesota of some of the young capital that they have other teen. You take a look at the new york. Knicks ward new york knicks. You take a look at toronto. We have to deal with beside you. Jerry a man is just not going to be a situation whereas again you know portland and washington are going to be beaten each other up to see which one can trade for ben simmons and give you guys either damian lillard or bradley beal so the nba season is gonna be upon us. I cannot wait is gonna be fair. Not tastic percents. None of them..

"I mean if that's going to be happening or are you really going to doubt the chances of the milwaukee bucks to repeat because everybody right now speaking about the only reason why they made it out of the east is because of what happened with brooklyn well brooklyn is in a little bit of turmoil right now and you know again a situation where you still have k. d. who's a couple of years removed from a torn achilles. You have james harden who missed time because of injury now. Same thing could happen alice. Anything could happen to kris. Same thing can happen to the holidays. You know i'm not saying that. Milwaukee isn't immune where we're speaking about. How well they can do from injury but You know if those guys remained relatively healthy or at least are ready for the playoffs. We have to give the milwaukee bucks strong consideration. If things play correctly. I don't know if they are but you know that's gonna be interesting. And of course star. Power equate to substance in lake. Reveal going to be interested to see them play tonight. Against the golden state warriors l. a. completely overhaul roster acquired russell westbrook from my washington wizards massive five trade that sent contiguous caldwell-pope kacoos ma mantras herald twenty twenty one first round pick to the a whiz to make room for westbrook salary of helu forty four point two million not so much in terms of when you think about the taxes and the cost of living in la. But it's still a nice chunk of change. Forty four point. Two million the lakers because of that and the acquisition of westbrook the salary they had to say goodbye to casey what their best perimeter shooter and they had to say goodbye to The guilt the great white hope. Alice caruso who went over in is playing with the chicago bulls but he was willing to better defenders and a good role player. Knowing you know. i mean. Alice caruso was extremely dependable in terms of look bit. I'm here to service. Lebron james and anthony davis said when i say survey lebron james talking about making him look great on the basketball court in having me do all the dirty work you filthy mind motherfuckers. So yeah so alice. Caruso was great in that role of not trying to be that guy who was trying to do more than he could. He understood what his role was and he did that. Very effectively as a role player for the los angeles lakers. He's now in Chicago so i guess the hope is that westbrook and developmental Situation of taylor horton tucker. T. h. t. will be able to compensate for the losses. But i'm not sure. I'm really not sure. Lakers this season man. I tell you questions are gonna be. Who's gonna be playing defense for this team now. Could the laker players that. They've acquired in the player that they have other team. Now are what we would say consisted defensive players especially on the perimeter now. Ad can still go ahead and do some things from the frontcourt position but if he's going to be asked to a be that guy in terms of taking that torch from lebron james somewhere in january or february and let it be his team like all of the great superstars have done whether we speaking about. Tim duncan passing torch to money to nobly whether it was kareem abdul-jabbar passing the torch to magic johnson. Whether it was dwayne wade. Passing the torch lebron james somewhere down the line. Lebron james has finally going to have to say hey look for us to maximize our opportunities to win a championship..

"I think it's a worthwhile gamble. When you've got LeBron, you've got a D, you go all in and Russell Westbrook is an attempt to do just that. Yeah, and when we're talking about overpaying, we're mainly our gripe is mainly with that first round pick. KCP and mantras Herald for Russell Westbrook straight up. I think that's relatively good value. I think that combination of three players is probably not getting you a better player than Russell Westbrook. That's probably the best you can do. And so Russell Westbrook, it's, you know, he's the best player they could have gotten with that package. And so you add that third star to LeBron and AD, the three of them clearly talked about it and they felt that this was going to work. So rob the Lincoln trusts that. Russell Westbrook is an LA in LA guy. You know, this is this is the homecoming that he's been wanting for a couple years now, according to all the reports. So this is, this is kind of a great move for the Lakers in terms of not only getting that third star that you've been seeking, but also getting a guy that really resonates with this city. And Russell Westbrook has done a great job being just good for the cities that he's played in Oklahoma City, Houston, D.C.. He was very involved in the community. And now putting him in a community that he grew up in, that he's very familiar with. I do think it's a great move overall. Obviously, there's fit questions, but that can be addressed. These are three such talented players. Just get it on the court and figure it out as you go. You know what? There's so many people that are saying this is never going to work. But how many times have we seen that play out? Where everybody says, oh, that's not going to Dwight Howard when the Lakers want a championship. Everybody was saying that's not gonna work. Dwight's gonna implode. That will never work out. And then he ended up being basically a model citizen and helping the Lakers win a championship. Think back to the incarnation of the 7 second or less sons when it first leaked out that the suns were gonna go small. Everybody rolled their eyes and said, no, there's no chance they're gonna get demolished. And now look, they completely changed the way the game of basketball has played in the NBA. Now you're seeing more small ball than anything else and teams are playing faster and faster and faster. We've seen these instances throughout sports history where people say that will never work and then they're proven wrong. I'm gonna trust that LeBron James and Anthony Davis that rob pelinka, they know what they are doing and adding Russell Westbrook is going to be a positive for the Lakers. Yeah, and I mean, you know, it's a bit of an extreme, but when Kevin Durant signed with the Golden State Warriors, people were legitimately saying there's only one ball. How is this gonna work? And not only did it work, it was like it was basketball magic..

"Grabbing. I'm still okay with it. I'm still okay with that right now. You're saying so he said to us. Yeah yeah yeah. He's putting up the numbers and in this backcourt here with the pelicans tequila alexander walker himself. Be shoot from three last year. All he's he's a devante and definitely is he wants to get them up and sometimes they're on fire. I think i'll barely take a barely take kobe just because chance. He has a pop in and the next thing. I like. we're trying to get back to those forty five days for devante graham. But i don't know not only did zion say he wished that lonzo back didn't he. Last season say that he wished to kill alexander. Walker was playing more. Just not gonna listen to anything about. Who's getting the ball i. It's very confusing. I mean i guess is still in theory with lonzo moving. There's more minutes there to be had for alexander walker. Devante coming in there you know. He's going to get a shots that's what he does. That's why he's out there weird weird first couple hours there last couple of days really for the pelicans the decisions they're making. We'll see if you know pans out trae. Let's let's wrap this up before we take a break here until we get two more questions about see but do you have a big dealer team or decisions being made not so much a wti fantastic hit on earlier but the lakers are really getting the band back together there and it's not so much. Wt up because you see this happen with super teams. You gotta fill out the back of the roster and it's often old guys but men. Four signings for the lakers yesterday. All of them over thirty all former lakers can't as more thirty two second time drain away. No ellington thirty three his second run. Trevor rees is back thirty six first time since two thousand nine he'll be a laker and dwight howard at thirty five. Is there for the third time fifty five seasons of combined. Nba experience average age thirty four. And that's why. I think dave deformed nailed it with his tweet last night killing the lakers. The vanderbilt gumbel dude reliving the glory days sometimes it works. Rondo and dwight were great and twenty. Sometimes it doesn't west matthews marcus. All were not great. Last year but v lakers are getting old every player. They've lost in the off. Season is under thirty mantras. Herald kyle kuzma. Kcpt caruso likely shooter and andre drummond. Everybody they brought in russell westbrook included over thirty of the guys they signed yesterday. I would think only. Dwight really has an impact for the lakers. Ellington hit six threes in one game. But i don't foresee him playing playoff minutes. They've still got a couple of moves they can make. They got matching rights on. T. h. t. m. l. e. They gotta make those count. Otherwise we're looking at a lot of dolph lundgren randy couldn't bear movie good people. I saw the first one at a theater. i think they're like four or five deep. Hold on four five of these movies. They've made a ton of expendable. Yeah.

"Less january or may that to me is worrisome. But i'm gonna give the lakers the benefit of watching them work for the next ten days and see how they build this roster out the thing about westbrook is. I know that this is sort of a stunning statement. But i mean it's just your westbrook has become a journey. yes fourteen. this is fourth team now. More teams and kevin durant has been on at this point right before teams in four years. And you know the thing about westbrook is i. Don't think he's a bad guy. I just think he's very difficult to play with. I think it's sorta tough to get on his wave leg. if so they were jazz musicians. Westbrook would probably be difficult to jam with because he does things. Differently than other players are confused by brian. Russell westbrook loves a solo. You got that right. He will take his saxophone and he will play at times. Beautiful and infuriating music for what feels like forty eight minutes at a time and he will always be loud but look i mean. Kevin durant elected to leave. I know wasn't all about westbrook. But i don't know how else you you have to classify as star break up. Hold george again. It wasn't like he was at russia's throat but he's like i prefer that over there james harden was like let's move on And bradley beal. In from what i understand. Endorsed this trait again. I don't think you know there's nuance here. I don't think bradley. Beal went to the wizards and pounded his fist table. And said get him out of here. I just think he was like hey You know bradley. We have adopted the trade russell. How do you feel about that. He's like fine. Get some shooting. Yeah that's that's more than a trend. And i think any of those guys would have russ overt for thanksgiving but i don't think any of them wanna play with him on christmas so russell westbrook saying you know what i need. What buddy healed might be about to get the irony of course if you're a laker fan. Who is the rare kind of laker fan. Who is not seduced by celebrity riot. Buddy heal these all the things we just said about fit that russell westbrook is not correct that would have been a solution to their shooting woes in a pretty immediate way. Yes it's multi-layered because The trade was going to be mantras. Harrell who actually was looking forward to going to sacramento. From what i hear and kyle kuzma. God bless him. I don't know if i've heard that statement ever said about anybody else. But god bless mantras herald hypothetically wanting sacramento had they done buddy heeled they still would have had contagious caldwell-pope and that first round draft pick that they ended up also trained russell a westbrook if they could have used it another deal. You know for example. I do think there was some interest from damore. Derozen to play for the lakers. The only way that really woulda worked is in a sign and trade. Deal with the spurs and you could have used contagious caldwell-pope type portrayed and now the other thing is those three guys. Anthony davis lebron and westbrook. They make a hundred and twenty million dollars between the salary. Cap is one hundred. Thirteen million has never been three players on a roster that make that much money so team building is going to be hard right now. The lakers only have five players under contract. One of them is marcus. Who is you know on the verge of retirement and in on a minimum contract. The other guy is. I'll fines mckinney. Whose contract is non guaranteed. That's their roster as we have this conversation so the marta rosen is just one of the names as the lakers seem to be reportedly contemplating like the expendable 's approach to all of this expendable meaning. Not that these guys are expendable. But it's like that movie with silvester stallone and jason state them and a bunch of all do in an action film getting together for one last job. I don't know lebron. It seems like the lakers. Players are pretty expendable. He's fine shipping them off on a regular basis Touche but the other day that. I've heard it's like you know it's who you might hope for if you're kind of a fan of nba memes like carmelo. Anthony is very much a name. That's being rumored. Who else are you hearing. Rumored along those lines and is any of that realistic at this point. I mean i can't believe. I'm saying this but carmelo actually makes sense for the lakers. Because they need any spot up shooting they can possibly get and they need spot up shooters who do not want a lot of money and carmelo. As for the last couple years is played on the minimum. He could maybe get more under different circumstance but the lakers could pay. You know three million dollars. They could give them a two year deal. I guarantee it. Make it six million and make him think that that's okay and carmella shot over forty percent on spot of three pointers last year. I mean he has defensive issues but he would help them huge minutes for them. It's not just a you know a banana boat reunion or whatever it he would help them the other player that i think i. I don't think they'll be able to get him at this price. But rudy gay is a guy is a free agent with the spurs. I mean they don't he can only pay him about six million dollars. But you know and then that then you're getting into some guys who are available for reasons garrett temple who's a you know really cerebral smart defends player. Who last year was the bulls wayne ellington around half of the league because he can make outside shots i ever buying. I covered the final four in detroit when he was at carolina. I still own a make. It wayne t shirt. Three point like teardrop logo on the lakers. Also have a hail mary. They're going to try to do here. And i'm going to tell you before you even tell you the details. I do not think it's going to work. I cannot wait for this to be aggregated. But please continue but lakers still have dennis shooter as a free agent now. Dennis shooter is not gonna come back the lakers. Because they're starting point. Guard is not russell westbrook who has two years left on his contract. Dennis shooter wants starter quality money and so he's not going to get that but it's that dennis schreuder could be used in a sign and trade where they send him out and get players back. And it's possible that the wizards who now need a point guard is our possibly they could expand the trade and even in a strange way. Still get buddy healed. When kyle kuzma would be an mantras herald. The original deal would be re routed from washington back to sacramento and dentistry would end up on the wizards now again. That's the white board of how it would happen. Do i actually think that's going to happen. That's a long shot. There's a lot of other free agent point guards at the wizards. I think we'll we'll look at other than dennis shooter. But you know i'm saying. Give the lakers. Seven to ten days. Here they also have alex caruso who they could possibly use them aside and trade if they don't resign them they have. Taylor horton tucker who i would think they'd would be very interested in bringing back but a who could be using a sign and trade as well. He's restricted so just because the lakers look a little bare right now and just because they might have some flaws..

"Tucker also los angeles. Times is reporting that. Marta rosen and kyle lowry. Both have the lakers on their radar ahead of free agency. So ramona what a realistic expectations for the lakers. This aussie well the step with taylor. Horton tucker is is that they had to do that so then he becomes a restricted free agent. The question is how are they willing to go in terms of extending him and how much money they're gonna pay him because other teams consign him to a deal. Which would be very uncomfortable for the lakers. In the way that they backload that contract and the way they set up the contract mart rosen l. A. kit not surprising me at all that he'd be interested in the lakers. Same thing we kyle lowry but A pro much because it's difficult for them to pay anything more than if the the way this works. The salary cap math worth for the lakers is if mantras herald picks up his player option. He has until july thirty first to do that if he option to the to to his deal. It's the they've used their mid-level exception which nine nine they can't you buddy more than five point. Nine million dollars does a pretty significant pay-cut for those two guys which means they would likely have to acquire them by a sign and trade. Now outs crusoe unrestricted free agent. Andre drummond unrestricted free agent. Dentist schreuder unrestricted free agent. Now the lakers tried to keep shooter. Obviously during the year the offered him several different contracts. he thinks he can get more My understand i don't know that he can elsewhere. I'm not sure where the home would be for him elsewhere. You've heard new york chicago. I don't know if that will materialize in the way that We thought it might during the year and so the lakers may end up getting a discount to keep shooter. They have other opportunities in terms of trades lined up that they can push those buttons is what you do in front office. You call around the league you have things set up and decide which doors to walk through so the first point where we find out what the lakers are going to do. This off season comes at the draft..

"mantra herald" Discussed on The Odd Couple with Chris Broussard & Rob Parker
"He was at his best at its peak. But we all assume that was. Brian deane got back and he was healthy. And these healthy. That the lakers will be scary. Team what the only thing about them is. Can they stay healthy. And it can't make it bad. Shot look like talk out here shooting threes. Let's it's been bad. It's been bad that when this rob parker bat bradley fad man now mantras herald put out after game four. You know what. I'm talking about worse. Feeling worse expletive feeling is wasted. Time so obviously has been playing in this series. Is that a problem. I get that he's upset and he wished he was playing which you want from a player but is that a problem with the team. That's you know what. I mean kinda causing anything. We get go back to last season. Well my parents pay for the clippers. He also had those cryptic tweets and he had another one today. That just sorta clear that. I've grown to know the years. I covered him when he played for. The clippers isn't an issue on the team and the locker room. I'm gonna say no. Because he's playing for the lakers playing with the brian james. Ab he's playing for a championship. Not just to get past the suck around and to the conference finals. He's playing for something and so those guys have told him they understand. he's frustrated. They understand he wants to play but if they don't stick together then that means they're fall apart you want to be a part of this Do you not want to be appointed. He wants to be a part of it. And it's just unfortunate that this is a series that it's difficult thank bogle to find a way to pay. Show how about cow kouzmin. Couple years ago he was the the cat's meow remember the first trade offer for anthony davis no way. Can you get cow coups. We're not going to part with him. He had that awesome rookie season out of nowhere late in the first round draft pick and and they were all about him and he's been nothing but inconsistent. You don't know if you're getting three points tonight. Twenty three points or whatever it is. What's happened to him. And where's his stock with the lakers. Now man that's a great question. Then i am baffled by the way. He's played both of the season by sure in the playoffs. I thought that he was really stepped into a row. Now i'll give him a little bit of a break from the game. Eighty didn't play because no one knew. Eighty wasn't playing a second half. Just get out there but despite all that has to be ready to play it on times you have to give them a better effort you have to make shots and those are things that are just not doing it. He's a good outside shooter. But like casey p like news food like all the guys on the team. He can't make a shot. He is one of the others. The lakers need to have producing. But then they have a chance to win the game at the series if he's not producing not playing good defense watching not playing great. Beat him and not hustling and not making shots then. The lakers chancellor winning the decrease brad. How do you think vogel works the center position tonight between drumming and gosol like it seems like he's been going heavy drum in the first half more disol- in the second half..

"It's probably going to annoy you okay. I can't wait kawhi leonard. Los angeles clippers leonard on so. I think he's in this conversation for the same reason that if we had done pressure cooker before last year's playoffs i would have had lebron at number one right. What lebron was bearing heading into last year's bubble was this idea of the entire decision of going to l. a. of teaming up with anthony davis taking a chance on the lakers pulling all these master strings to get them in position to kind of compete for a title and then everyone expecting because he's the quote unquote best player in the world that he better step up and deliver and do it right. And i think for kawhi leonard. The counter is going to be. Well he's already got you know multiple titles. He's already got finals. Mvp awards he has. Nothing left to prove. I don't think that's true at all. He's got plenty left to prove In terms of where he's going to stack up all time among the historic greats. He's been kind of forgotten man this season. I'm glad both of us were able to give him his his just recognition in the nba conversation. He's not going to be getting very many. Mvp votes and i think that's fine and when you're looking at his decision and the last two years of everything that the clippers have done it's all about why is in the middle of it lou. Williams gone mantras herald gone. You know. Paul george in because quite leonard water shakeel gis alexander out a whole bunch of draft picks out because of quad leonard. He has to step up and be better at this year's postseason than when he was in last postseason. Now i know you and i would probably give different letter grades for how he played in last year's playoffs. You'd probably be really generous. It'd be really nice and save collided. Fine i would. Not you know there was a number of games. No-shows horrible horrible place down the stretch. Bad decisions Pacifism not getting. His teammates hyped up and ready for the moment. And i put that on him as a leader. Now i'm also going to say this is going to be a shared spot with him and paul george. Paul george is the easier target. He's always going to be called playoff all that stuff and when he doesn't play well. The clippers really struggle. So i understand. He's kind of to me like an x factor in this conversation. But i think there's some real pressure on kawhi leonard to deliver on his entire blueprint master. Plan of leaving toronto for the clippers. If they don't at least get to the conference finals and better yet the finals..

"That team is getting really good. I'm in really really good. And they're getting to the point where they're gonna be playing defense just a little bit better than they are right. Now you tell me outside of. La's you can beat them. And i'm not talking about the clippers. I'm talking about the lakers. Tell me who's going to be able to beat. That's what they play defense just a little bit better than what they're playing now. Bruce born. All of a sudden now is starting to become very integral part of that team started to become like the pj tucker or started the have that role that pj tucker had or has with the houston rockets are had with the houston rockets. When the rockets were a team that was vying for conference championships. Maybe not so much as garland people in the low post but bonus the type of guy that can go ahead guard multiple positions care about guarding that worried about scoring not worried about play the playmaking feeding off the plane making an offensive skills of kyrie in james harden. And that's what he's happy with scrap. Hustle set screens tape charges get rebounds defend defend defend. Abon can keep doing that. Hell right after kyrie. Katie james harden. Or if you just talk about the pecking order. I think the most important person on that squatters. James harden followed by k. d. followed by kyri followed by the andre jordan. Whatever other frontcourt player they're gonna get but coming in after that is is boeing. He's more integral than tlc. or landry. shamet or any of those guys. Joe harris any of those guys and term the where the brooklyn nets. Want to go though. That could be the only swat moving forward that we give the lakers in trouble. If ad lebron are close to being one hundred percent in under the assumption that shooter in mantras herald in coups. Ma caruso in marcus all on those guys are are there also in terms of you know being productive or just keeping at the same level. They are right now so laker fans yet. You lost three out of four four out of five. Y'all law three in a row yet. You wash loss to the washington wizards the other night. Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah. Don't worry about it.

"For thanks for That little tease but So the lakers. Couple of games behind utah ahead of the and then after that. You've got portland. Phoenix both seventeen and ten san antonio sixteen and eleven. Denver is fifteen and thirteen. Bad loss against the wizards come on denver seriously. The wizards lost while boston new struggling than they lose to the wizards and golden state the comeback victory over miami last night. They're sixteen and thirteen. So you take a look at this. Lebron james is still the hard soul of that team. And he's playing. Vp level so far averaging twenty five and a half points on forty eight percent forty nine percents shooting almost fifty percents shooting Rebounds per game eight assists per game playing the best defense that he's played in a while. Look there's gonna be no one player that's going to replace davis in terms of his scoring and rebounding but moving up the charts or moving up to take that responsibility at least a lot of the scoring. Possibility from davis. Putting points on the board is going to be dennis schroder getting his point a lot differently than what normally did afar scoring concerned but look shooters average and fourteen points does a very good job with the pick and roll especially if you pick and roll him with mantras herald. So i think for the time being Can be the second option on offense. Take take the responsibility. And then if you speaking about martha soul herrell cocoons will have a bigger role on the team with increased minutes more shell attempts for all those guys especially the solar herald definitely start taking a look more to shoot their shot the importance on the defensive glass rebounding defensive glass. I think herald in the soul will do that. Well passing again from at high posts. Casale has already always been good. Rebounding low-post Carol had been good. I think coups my has improved defense throughout his career. He's going to be space. Shoot three pointer opening up driving lanes for james intruder so being able to do something a little bit different. The ad was not the three point shooter or maker. That cal coups. Bill was even though you couldn't call kuba reliable three point shooter but still. He's a more of a threat to shoot had to do. You have to respect the three point game a lot more than you had. Anthony davis which again opens up the scoring lanes for guys like lebron and guys like shooter who is a master especially when you get on that high. Picking switched roles at the top of the key whether you're going left right elbow extended through to get to the rim taking the big off the dribble that pretty well so hey kuzbass shooting back coolest shooting.

"Mantras. Herro. Has not been the same. Player since he came back from being away, Lou Williams has not been the same player since he came out of the NBA Quarantine jail there this is just the facts that doesn't necessarily mean that that's going to change the outcome on tomorrow night for game seven. But this is not simply the the clippers messing around there at the break here and his doc rivers said today they clippers put themselves here nobody else and it's up to the clippers to get themselves out of it. Yeah I'm not sure mantras heralds should be guarding Nikola Jokic chapter what we've seen the last couple of games herald had a good game for though. So I, mean, it's one of these things. That's a little confusing because I think I heard you mentioned this Brian that he's the sixth man of the year, not just of the team but of the League and yet he is not the six-man off their bench in that last game right that he drew my green came off the bench that they they have not been able to use him as they wanted to, and it goes so much deeper than that. Just so many parts of this team not functioning together the way that they can. and. We've seen them do it at times the season, but we have also seen them lack cohesion at times. This season and game seven is not a time for that. We will have to see if they can pull it
