Lakers Fast Break says
C’mon Laker fans, let’s see who’s your Final Four and Winner of this year’s NCAA Tournament!
Jamie Sweet says
I don’t watch college hoops, never have. Always had issues with those kids putting it all on the line and not making a dime. Glad that’s changing albeit at a glacial pace.
LakerTom says
LOL. Sean called me out for not watchng college basketball and he’s right although I do monitor how UCLA is doing since it’s one of my alma maters. Had to do some homework to make my predictions though. Went with Gonzaga and Mark Few to beat to go undefeated and win it all.
Magicman says
Yup. Lol.
I agree with Tom, though. Lol. Zags seem to be unencumbered to the Final Four. Rooting for Coach Few. He’s working towards the mountain top.
Zags, Tar Heels, Michigan, Illinois
LakerTom says
Always a fun podcast when the Lakers dominate, even when they don’t play their usual elite defense. Give a listen, Lakerholics. i think Gerald and I covered some interesting issues, including talking about my proposed Myles Turner trade and the news the Lakers have talked to the Pacers about trading for him.
One of the interesting developments since I proposed trading Kuz, Trezz, and THT for Myles Turner is how what I call the Bench Big Three has upped their performances.
On Monday, Kuz dropped 17, Trezz 27, and THT 18 for 62 points. Last night, Kuz dropped 16, Trezz 25, and THT 16 for 57 points. Pretty impressive for 3 players who averaged 11.9, 14.2, and 7.5 or 33.6. The Bench Big Three increased their points by 77%.
Needless to say, if we could get this kind of productivity every game from Kuz, Trezz, and THT, the Lakers would be a dramatically better team. Of course, the problem is we don’t play the Warriors and Timberwolves every game.
At any rate, great to see the Bench Big Three thrive. Makes the Lakers better and ups their trade value dramatically.
