@McnickleDavid They shouldn’t use their own players as bait. There’s certain lines and that should be one of them.

@TP4myBunghol @LakersLuka_ They had the 18th best defensive efficiency before the trade. Now they don't have their best defender. Barring the two stars actually decided to give full effort on both ends, they're gonna give up a lot of points.

@TP4myBunghol @LakersLuka_ Yes, stopping a LeBron/Luka duo offensively will be a tall task. The defense is my biggest question. They got rid of their best defender (by far) and brought in someone with questionable (at best) defense to pair with someone else who only plays defense when he feels like it.

@TP4myBunghol @LakersLuka_ Oh they are absolutely beateable. They will have by far the 2 best players on the floor. This is more so just looking at why the current Lakers roster could/will have issues in the playoffs.

@TP4myBunghol @LakersLuka_ It's not that they'll game plan to stop them. It's that they can score 15 in a good matchup while guys like SGA/J-Dub/Harden do their normal damage.

@TP4myBunghol @LakersLuka_ Except most of those teams have better scorers than their centers (Thunder, Clippers) or very well rounded scoring (Nuggets, Rockets, Kings).

@TP4myBunghol @LakersLuka_ Well they don't offer a ton away from the ball, so they really only have to worry about 1 at a time.

@TP4myBunghol @LakersLuka_ Yeah, I guess he can MAYBE make 1 three a game. Can't wait to see him and Jaxson Hayes try to guard Jokic, Sengun, Sabonis, Hartenstein, and Zubac in the playoffs.

@TP4myBunghol @LakersLuka_ He made 88 threes in 117 games with the Hawks. That just doesn't move the needle for me, especially when it was a 2 year sample size of a 14 year career and happened 5 years ago.

@toddsinator15 The first 1 was bad, but the 2nd was with contact so who knows how that 1 actually turns out with a clean pocket.
