So, a pride of lions woke up hungry and decided in order to feed the whole pride they must go for a large prey. Then they came across a lone bull buffalo that was separated from the herd. What follows next was history. The lions made a quick work of the buffalo, and that was it. The buffalo was brought down mercilessly and the whole pride converged and feasted until every member of the pride had a belly-full.
That was the story of the Lakers’ game last night. They subdued an overmatched opponent whose only prayer to God would be to sing kumbaya. The Lakers imposed their will with complete dominance, a dominion only seen with a conquering lion. And in a rear feat this season, every player on the team gets to play at least 6 minutes. By the time the game ended, everyone got their belly full. This is how you pay back for an earlier loss, but in a very demoralizing way. I was still feeling the sting from our earlier loss to them.
I would like to give a big shoutout to Damian Jones for giving us a hint of what he could do, and I hope the injury is not that serious.
That was the story of the game, folks. A great win and a big thank you to Jamie for the fiver.
Great discussion, couldn’t get to all the de jour topics. Important Laker topics indeed. Great trade, would give it a b+ will turn into an A+ if/when Dennis re-signs.
Next players? Wes Matthews seems like a good bet. I think with the addition of Schroder we’re going to play AD and a hybrid 5. The two best hybrids available right now are Ibaka and Baynes. I’d prefer either of them.
AD declines Javale Pick his up Avery declines Rondo declines and I think Cook his gets waived or released KCP declines
Very vibrant discussion and a lot of great points all around.
Excellent podcast, guys. Too bad Gerald didn’t clue me in on his hilarious opening. I could have brought some firepower to the pod.
By the way, wonder if Gerald saw the comment by Eric Pincus about the Lakers coaches believing THT would be in the rotation this year.
Give a listen everybody. Not the fireworks of last time but a lot of great conversation and insights on this evolving Lakers offseason.
Great job as usual by Gerald, our host extraordinaire.
THT will be a back end of the rotation player and we’ll be the better for it. Just an opinion but that’s the future I see for him.
Kind of like the 5 first round picks OKC had to give up to trade CP3. Oh wait, they received a first rounder? LOL.
