@KARENGADSON1 @mcten The point guard = Russell Westbrook doesn’t fit the small forward Lebron James who recently led the NBA with 10.2 assists = higher than all point guards during the 2019-20 season. Your guards should be your best 3-point shooters. 😔😔😔 Understand ?

The only movement without the ball style 3-point shooter the Lakers have because mistakes in roster construction at 2-Guard the previous season.

@LakersEmpire Theis without hesitation. 👍

@SurfJournalist They didn’t do their own independent research. 😂😂😂 Didn’t watch enough Miami Heat games and Philadelphia 76ers games.

@EricPincus Saves the Lakers the embarrassment of watching a Lakers Center seriously underperform as a shot-blocker/Rim Protector because Williams is trying to play through a preexisting foot injury.

@LADEig Lakers dodged a bullet. 👍

@SamQuinnCBS We are watching the Lakers find a way to win games even with Jaxson Hayes as the 1st Unit Center. 😂😂😂 J.J. Redick’s philosophy is predominantly perimeter based offense anyway

@BronGotGame @NBA Lakers still keep finding ways to win despite Jaxson Hayes being the 1st Unit Center because they don’t want to be a low post scoring oriented offense anyway. 👍 Strictly perimeter based.

@SpeakContext J.J. Redick cannot implement his own “Podcast Playbook X’s & O’s for 3-point shots because he has zero veteran movement without the ball style wing shooters. 😞😞😞 But frequent random offense has been successful though.

@ceejaytalksball A NBA resume of having shot at least 40% for 3-points off 6.5 attempts in at least 3 separate seasons. That’s not fake, that’s respect that has been earned during his NBA career. 👍

@jrichardgoodman Player movement without the ball behind the defense for low post scoring is a new weapon for the Golden State Warriors 1st Unit as a result of Jimmy Butler’s arrival.

@Paradox_EP @jovanbuha 25 minutes is plenty for Gabe Vincent anyway. 👍 The return of movement without the ball style 3-point shooter Dalton Knecht gives the Lakers the ability to attack the defense instead of always trying to “counterpunch” as a defense.

@jovanbuha Shot 5 for 8 at 3-pointers, 15 points in the previous game against the Golden State Warriors. 👍 Gabe Vincent is performing well as a feisty perimeter defender who protect Luka Doncic on defense.

@SurfJournalist Jimmy Butler is who you have right now and he is a huge help to Steph Curry as a #2 Scoring Option that score 6 points in the low post alone while scoring the other 18 points off 18 ft jumpshots. 👍

@MtnDude1020 @HornetsLead He suffered the back injury the PREVIOUS SEASON 2023-24. 👍 Mark Williams suffered his 2nd injury, a foot injury this 2024-25 season where he has played only 23 out of 48 games possible.

@HornetsLead As a result of suffering his foot injury earlier this 2024-25 season Mark Williams lost some of his aggression as a Rim Protector and has played only 23 games out of a possible 48 games.

@LADEig The Lakers were looked at as very soft in the middle of the paint when it comes to fighting for rebounds. 😞😞😞 Trey Jemison will enter the game as the only BRUISER the Lakers have for physicality in the paint.

@SamQuinnCBS Once you accept the fact that Jaxson Hayes is all you got at 1st Unit Center, now the “1st Wall of Defense” must keep the ball out the paint. 👍 DFS & Vanderbilt on the court together as defensive around Hayes.

@SamQuinnCBS The Lakers almost made a huge mistake, a 23-year old Center that dealt with a back injury the previous season and foot injury this season that has taken away Mark Williams’s aggressiveness as a Rim Protector.

@darinbunch Also when both are on the court together now Steph Curry has proven versatile scoring weapon that Steph Curry can make the skip pass to for 1-on-1 ISO-MODE SCORING.

@mcten Lakers retain rookie 3-point shooter Dalton Knecht, a finisher of movement without the ball style SET PLAYS FOR CATCH & SHOOT that the other Lakers can’t execute. 👍
