You mentioned in the other thread that Luke Walton is fine for now. He isn't. There is no way that team should have the second worst record in the league...and be last in the Western Conference with the talent that they have. They should be ahead of Phoenix and right around the Jazz and Clippers are... at about 17 wins. Its a reflection on the coach.
I'm not going to fully disagree with you, since they are managing to under perform against the lowest of expectations.
But there is barely any talent on the team. Lonzo can't shoot, Clarkson and Randle are turnover happy, poor defending all around Cans, Broke Lopez is always hurt and similarly can't defend and has never been a contributor on a winning team.
What else do we have? Ingram is coming along, maybe one day he'll be a strong 3rd option on a good team? Nance is a permanent bench fixture, someone who should be a 9-10th player on a team.
Josh Hart? Tyler Ennis? Barely above D-league value (if that)
And then you have the currently criminally overrated Kuzma, who has a nice offensive game to offset his nothing defense which equates to essentially a replacement level player and then KCP, who is another 4-5th man on a decent team.
The team fucking sucks man, Gunt will tell you that the true measure of a basketball player is their free throw shooting. The Lakers are DEAD last, shooting 69% from the line, that's atrocious.
How are they from 3? DEAD LAST at 32.8%
And then to add to their shit offense, they are the 2nd worst defense in the league. And who's surprised? The only plus defenders on the entire team are KCP (barely) and Nance... how are you defending anybody with Lonzo, Kuzma, Randle, Clarkson and Broke fucking Lopez on your team?
TL: DR... the Lakers fucking suck. Walton should get some blame for not cracking the whip, but the team fucking blows.
