I don't think Shabazz any worst than Jeremy Lamb to be honest.
He'll probably need two seasons of getting humbled with D-League stents but he probably becomes a rotation player at worst for Sota once the ceiling comes down sometime post Love.

He's the same age as Kobe what in the actual fuck? Dude looks like he is drinking himself to death.

Probably, at least in the short-term. Team needs a boost and that's exactly what he brings to the floor. The Knicks are going to have their hands full tomorrow night.
Feels good, mang. :3
Demarcus is such a beast, but also a bitch. The celts almost had him last year, and I was really conflicted by it. On one hand he could be a top 3 big man in the league IMO, on the other his attitude problems will probably never let him reach his potential.
He's having a career year precisely because he's finally starting to keep his attitude in check.
I agree, but players like him are dangerous, they can snap at any given moment. Hopefully he's taking the right steps in his personal life and his support system is guiding him, because it'll take a lot of effort to keep him in check.
his per 36 is damn impressive, just under 13 boards, and 26 points on 18 shots per game.

I'd be guessing to say much about him. 6'1, 6'2 unathletic but productive guards are some of the hardest players to project really. He could either D.J himself or find himself somewhere between Conley and Hill production wise.
Would reach for more upside in a draft like this. Though if he fell to the Clips that'd be a great situation for him.
The attitude helps. But most of it was to do with him getting the ball in much better spots and attacking the rim continuously instead of catching the ball 15'+ away from the basket.
I imagine Rudy has taken some of the pressure off of him. It's too bad what happened to Tyreke, they could've formed a nasty duo.
I'd say it's the other way around. Isiah and DMC have taken the ball out of Gay's hands and he isn't allowed to iso as much as he is prone to doing because of it. Which is why Gay is now shooting much better.
But thats just a few weeks after the trade. There's a long way to go in this season, but hopefully they can all keep it up.

If Pau is out that leaves 8 Lakers players able to suit up. Has this ever happened before to a team?

I've watched 3-4 kings games this year and he visibly checks himself like a dog who wants a treat when his bitch meter gets pinged

Yes.
Henry will be back soon.
The Grammy trip is going to see this lineup:
Marshall-Meeks
Meeks-Young (at some point Henry)
Johnson-Young
Hill-Kelly
Sacre-Kaman
Try out-tanking that.
I think the Lakers will randomly win one of the games, but hopefully not against the Magic or Celtics.
When the jeff green/perkins trade happened I think the celts had somewhere around that number.

Mitch and Jim better be careful, they might get investigated at this rate.
They already had 8 healthy players before Kaman came back.

Didn't the Pacers only have like 6 players able to suit up after the brawl?

if you see me in a fight with a bear, don't help me fool, help the bear!
He wasn't any worse than most other superstars in the league.. He just wasn't playing that well yet. Really DMC just whined alot he was never dangerous by any means like say Mario Chalmbers or someone..
I didn't want to be the one to say it, but, yeah. Pretty much. He was looking for super star treatment from the ref's with out putting up the numbers. There's a lot of guys who spend a lot of time whining in the NBA.

Has D'Antoni been fired yet?
Has Jim Buss stepped down?

Jim ain't goin nowheres.
And why would Dantoni leave? No coach could make this current roster work, it's putrid. If you want an all out tank, then I suppose him having LA overperform for that stretch earlier this year is a decent reason to have him leave.
Mike is working fine as a tank coach and he'll be decent during the rebuild.

We gotta wait for Magic to flip his share of the Dodgers into a couple bills so he can buy the Lakers from the Buss family.
Aren't they also still paying Brown?
I don't see them paying 3 coachs at once, 2 of them not working for the team, when the might not win 20 games.
Blackace

Think most of his salary is off the books thanks to the Cavs picking him up.
MorisUkunRasik

Yup. Brown is still getting paid and Mike's contract has a few more years on it. Mike's gonna be around for the next 3-4 seasons depending on how things go.
I totally forgot that The Lakers got out of a portion of his deal because Gilbert gave him a job.
edit: did a quick search and LA got out of Mike Brown's deal entirely thanks to The Cavs. sheesh.

I believe MDA is on contract next year with a team option for year after.
Like you said, there is no reason to fire him. There is nothing any coach could do with this roster that he hasn't done.
They might as well get their high draft pick, let him coach next season, then let him go (unless they can get Thibbs now) and get someone else then.

They were top 5 in offense the last time Rose was alive.
It's not like Hinrich at PG with Deng as the main shot creator can be made into a force.

more like "thank you missing MCL"
Yeah, they said 8 weeks.
But if the suns are out of the play offs by then and not even really close he'll probably be shut down.

Jordan Adams is still ranked as the 67th best prospect by Draftexpress, it's going to be pretty controversial when the 76ers take him 5th overall.

He's not as good as some Bulls fan want to believe but Jimmy Butler was a good late round pick.
Mirotic is also the current MVP of the Spanish league and could come over next year after 3 years.
When are the Bulls going to start losing games? This season is the worst. Thibs sticking it to the front office.
They only removed part of the meniscus not the entire thing
I think we will still be in the hunt the rest of january is full of teams that play similar styles and we have a lot of games at home. This road trip was killer we played 4 road games in 5 nights against teams that are best in our biggest weakness. They were all close games even though we were getting out rebounded by like 20
