bad coaching. Randle, clarkson and Druss allw ould benefit from a flow based offense. SMH. He is learning bad habits from Young, Kobe and Lou
Kyle Anderson over Randle?![]()

not even close tbh. Kyle is ten times better.
Who is Kyle Anderson?
That's why LA is so bad at drafting - they don't do any research![]()
The ceiling on the Lakers youth is pretty low, like HH said. Of course they have some talent and when you give young guys on a terrible team minutes you are bound to see "flashes". But they are not developing. At all. And the flashes still don't lead you to believe their ceiling is all that high, system be damned.
When you factor in lower than expected ceiling/skill sets (Randle can't shoot, Russ is really slow and can't defend or shoot that well, etc..) with terrible habits in their formative years (no emphasis on ball movement, system or defensive principles/teammwork) you get a bleak future IMO.
Can you imagine the kind of hysteria they'd have on Lakersground if they had gotten Towns, Okafor, or Porzingis? We'd probably have an influx of new Lakers fans here telling us how they're going to dominate for the next decade.![]()
They would at least have a glimmer of hope if they had KAT/Proz because of the ceiling. They would be worse off (meaning KAT/Proz) than they are now, but the ceiling would be there. But because La keeps swinging and missing so badly in addition to being one of the worst player development teams, they are in trouble.
In 2 years, the 76ers will be in playoff contention. The Lakers will be lucky to be a 12 seed in the West.![]()
I won't go that far for Philly, but I'd say they have a much better shot as things look now.
The drafting process is only one of the problems.
The others are bad player development, lack of direction, horrible system.
Some of you are really smart and say some dumb . I am done arguing the matter. Let the young kids play and develop. we will revisit this time next year ...
Idk about Randle tbh, he's playing for the worst coach in the history of the NBA. I'll cut jim some slack till we get a coach who's not a piece of .
They have a cancer on the team. If they started competing now he'd stick around.
I've said time and time again,,,Randle is Dejuan Blair part 2 and I dare any laker fan to prove me wrong,,,,,
I don't get it. He didn't play that badly tonight, he was 1/7 from the field, 2 points, 7 boards, no assists, blocks, or steals with 5 turnovers. Oh wait...

as i said before, that ball handling in the paint would result in an instant TO against any good team. People are already cringing any time he starts doing that. It's soooo dumb tbh
Anthony Bennett![]()
He sucks, but Byron Scott has been ting on him, all year, to be fair![]()
Russell has plenty of potential, if you say otherwise you are clearly not watching the lakers enough
he's just playing under the wrong coach and players, that's really slowing down his progress. Randle on the other hand, he probably would have been better off playing another sport.. This dude will need to become a gym rat to fix his gigantic game holes..
what potential tbh
