4 moves broke the Lakers starting in the 2023 offseason:

-Pelinka signed an overachieving 6’3 Gabe Vincent to a 33 million/ 3 years contract. He missed all of the 2024 season with a knee injury then proceeded to be one of the worst role players in the league since.

-Signed Jarred Vanderbilt to a 48 mil/ 4 year contract (player option on the last year lol). Vando couldn’t stay healthy on his past 2 teams and had major injury concerns dating back to college.

-Selected Jalen Hood Schifino with the 17th pick: a small unathletic guard who had outside shooting concerns. 2 years later he’s out of the league. Several decent role players were selected after that pick Podziemski, Murray, Jaquez, Clowney. Cam Whitmore was traded for second round picks.

-Selected Dalton Knecht with 17th pick in 2024 when AD was asking for a center and Yves Missi was still on the board. Several 3&D wings went after that pick Ryan Dunn and Jaylon Tyson were selected not far after.

Yup, CPJ is a good shout. For us Dort fits that bill obviously, and there’s Joe(claimed off waivers), Wiggins, Jaylin Williams and Ajay Mitchell.

It’s great cause you can pretty much keep them for a long time on low wages before they spread their wings, unlike those first rounders.

He’s too slow with his feet to really be a good defender against faster wings, but against slower wings and centers he’s playable defensively. Not good, playable, unfortunately Bron also wants to defend the same players so he’s forced out of position when he’s sharing minutes with Bron

Agreed! Brings so much more then just his ability to hit 3s. Plays his heart out, not afraid to call out others players for being lazy or giving them tough love. And he can be an asshole, the Cavs need as many guys like that as they can get. I know they are both young and make some bad mistakes at times, but Tomlin and Tyson give us some much needed grit too. Pair that with Mitchell, Strus, and maybe Bryant, that can be a mean line up if need be.

I really tried to be open minded about Ayton, I genuinely thought he was playing well to start the season, but Suns fans and Blazers fans, take a bow, yall got it.

It’s fucking insane how all he needed to do was be serviceable enough relative to what is basically the NBA minimum wage but he’s not even doing that right now. I try hard to not blame swings or losses on one player that my hate is fixating on but the last few weeks it feels like he’s actively losing us the game every minute he’s on the court. All the chemistry he was developing with AR is gone. He’s gone back to playing like a pussy and constantly bobbling and fumbling lobs and passes from Luka and Bron. Gets lost on defense every possession which is just unbearable when you already have a team with Luka and no other notable defenders. Isnt even feeling impactful on the boards anymore.

You know how fucking embarassing it is for him that we spent the entire second half of last season joking and complaining about the center situation being so bad that we had to start Hayes and that we spent all off season saying literally ANYBODY would immediately be better, only for us to get here and be fucking begging JJ to put Hayes back in? This is the easiest fucking job he will have in his entire career. All we wanted was for someone to grab boards and roll hard for the lobs Luka and Bron would spoon feed them. 95% of the centers in the league would be BEGGING to have his spot right now.

When Evan Mobley is hurt, Jarrett Allen steps up. We’ve seen it over and over. He’s not a 4th option guy, he just is a 4th option guy on the Cavs.

Cavs are trending to be one of the best rebounding teams this season. Helps when you have Tyson and Lonzo helping out on the boards vs Okoro.

Most ungrateful fan base ever. Lakers don’t deserve LeBron. Seeing LeBron cry you can tell even though he played longer with the Lakers he doesn’t have that same feel for them because their fan base just tossed him aside once Luka came

It’s not. I grew up in LA and a lot of “fans” hate LeBron. Call him a bitch. Say he flops too much. Is a diva. They compare him to Kobe all the time.

Listen to LA radio. A lot of the local radio sports figures talk shit on him too.

If yall didn’t watch this game I need people to see the half assed effort that Ayton is putting in.

And fuck man I get it Luka’s defense is bad but tonight he was literally the entire offense. I can “understand” the bad defense when he’s like 90% usage rate in the offensive side. But Ayton is just walking around out there fumbling rebounds and pouting
