I wouldn't say I'm certain, but just that the stats seem to support that he will be an above average roleplayer at best - someone like Wilson Chandler, DeAndre Jordan, maybe Aaron Gordon etc. Not like you'd be disappointed in that kind of return from your lottery picks - but I'm reasonably confident he can't become what some Lakers fans think he can become.
This might be an embarrassingly bad question, but welp...
Does your team need to win to impact the win shares stat?
it estimates how many wins that player is responsible for vs the exact same team with a league average player at the position instead.
So, yes, the stat has built-in adjustment for bad teams vs good teams. In theory, if anything, a player on a bad team will have more win shares than he would on a better team, since if your team isn't winning a lot it's easier for a decent player to have an impact.
I love the absolute chaos of the Lakers deals. Lance, JaVale, and Rondo is peak crazy and it's great.
Also the Lakers need to learn the lesson of NY and not give up assets this year for Leonard, or at least nothing they're not trying to move out of the way for him to fit better. Unloading resources to get a guy who has told the entire world he's signing with you next year is absolute insanity to me.
Didn't Paul George say the same thing last year though? And he is not a Laker next season. So it might make sense to try and get the guy they want.
Yeah if there's a reasonable deal between the moon SA is asking for now and a sandwich they should make the move. It takes a while tweak a system for new players even ultra talented ones like Kawhi and a lot could happen in a year.
Look if you miss, you miss, but dumping all your young players with potential and every draft asset you have to get someone puts you in the spot where you're capped out with no way to improve.
So unless every big money player you have works out perfectly and stays 100% healthy, the dregs left on your team actually turn out to be several good role players and solid starters, and you find some guys straight off the scrap heap that turn out to be contributors, you're completely toast.
If you wait, you can miss yes, but you have options from there. You can look at other free agents, you can look into other trades, or you can try to get younger and get more draft picks. If you pull the trigger and it doesn't go perfectly you're just screwed for like 5 years.
Tony Parker on the not-spurs is going to look weird as fuck.
With the spurs going all weird suddenly i keep expecting to wake up and hear that pop is going to be coaching in like, Orlando or something ridiculous.
I mean, probably, but that's unrelated to the Tony Parker signing. We've needed a quality backup PG for the past two seasons, since Lin left. The real reason Kemba is probably leaving, either via trade if we use our brains, or free agency if we use our hearts, is because our old GM had no fucking clue how to manage contracts and plan to keep arguably the best player the franchise has seen. Maybe we can dump off Batum on someone but we'd be basically gutting the team to do so and that's also not gonna be appealing to him. He deserves to actually get some shit done in the playoffs on a good team than never make it and get blasted by the Heat when we do.
Also Grayson Allen wasted no time answering the question of if he’d continue being a detestable shitweasel in the NBA
Gotta say, it really wasn't much of anything. Allen fouled, Young hooked under his arm and kinda sorta shoved, Allen kinda sorta shoved back as they were untangling and then walked away. Double tech plus the shooting foul.
Not really, anymore - cap goes up, these things happen. Chandler parsons is making 23 mil, Harrison Barnes, etc. It’s what Aaron Gordon got, in this market it’s ok for a 23 year old who can shoot the 3 and score 20 a game

Alternatively, there are lots of banana boats in South Bay
Once a shitweasel, always a shitweasel.
This is getting SO WEIRD

That's uhh...gonna be weird.
Tony Parker ain't starting for anyone outside of the French national team at 36 years old.

Not like they’re gonna draw any UFA

Our GM sux

He's 36 and Manu is 40. This was all going to end one day and frankly it's probably 2-3 years overdue.
