Yo the Lakers are doing WORK! Dayum

[imdaman99]

:lol wtf

[Airupthere]

Moaarrrr help!!!!!! Lol

[Manny98]

Most stacked team ever I have seen enough

[Code Breaker]

How much cap space do they have left?

[Shogon]

Most stacked team ever I have seen enough

The Nets have a better big 3 given skill sets, age and how they currently produce... well... at least on offense.

Anthony Davis is the only one of the Lakers 3 still at their peak... LeBron is not in his prime and I would argue Westbrook is past it as well despite still being an amazing player.

All 3 Nets players are still in their prime.

[Gudo]

Shit this lineup is loaded

[Axe]

No more excuses this time bitches

If LA beats them, it'll be due to defense and paint dominance.

[NBAGOAT]

This is really good but Malik monk on a vet min was an even bigger steal

[ImKobe]

Lakers are LOADEDDDDD.

Lakers have depth and scrappy defenders like Bazemore and Ariza

Nets are a seriously flawed team that lack depth or guys that can defend

Lakers literally have zero weakness

Shooting - check
Defense - check
Iso scorers - check

[ArbitraryWater]

Wow Nunn is a legit player.

Unexpected.

[D-Wait]

Monk and Nunn are damn bargains, haters fuming :lol :lol

[AirBonner]

Khris Dunn is the best player with two N’s

[D-Wait]

THT back as well.

[RicardoTubbs]

Caruso getting 2x as much as Nunn?

Damn white privilege

[KOBEtherealKing]

I like this signing, I didn’t watch him too much but he can get points here and there.

[red1]

We ain't worried about nunn :roll: :roll:

[RicardoTubbs]

We ain't worried about nunn :roll: :roll:

None are worried about the Raptors :yaohappy:

[DoctorP]

Nunns okay. Solid.

[red1]

None are worried about the Raptors :yaohappy:

lol cant argue with that





GOATbrook is going to get a ring!!!!

:banana::banana::applause:

[Lebron23]

2022 NBA champion.

[PP34Deuce]

Lakers basically got younger on the perimeter for 3 and d purposes and stayed veteran at SF to center.

I imagine melo is lebrons primary back up. Nunn is good for back up pg that attacks. Malik monk is streaky like kcp. Ellington is situational. Dwight takes care of himself and will be a 8 and 9 player.

Depth got better but everything hinges on bron westbrook and AD

[bladefd]

Is that for the taxpayer's MLE? That is like 5mill afaik. If so then Lakers only have 2 slots remaining and only veteran's minimum moving forward

[Bond007]

Both Nunn and monk signings are insane. 2 very young guys close to their primes perhaps at that bargain price ? I like caruso a lot but common Monk is all around better and just as athletic and can hit that 3 on a regular basis.

[999Guy]

Nunn is trash. Nunn was trash his rookie year but he was a rookie so no one cared.

Nunn was completely trash in 2021. Monk too. No defense loser.


Nunn going to LA to rot instead of barely being below average at a bigger role for more money is insane. Could be the end of his career after he rots in LA as a streaky bum.

[Bond007]

All i saw with your message was Trash and Bum:oldlol: why so angry ? :facepalm

[Sportal]

Tf Monk and Nunn... Those are some good players.

[Lebron23]

I like this signing, I didn’t watch him too much but he can get points here and there.

Do you think he'll start or become a 6th man scorer off the bench??

[GOBB]

Idiot players taking less than market value. Reminds me of when Harrell did that. Oh wait...

[Jasper]

Lakers get - quality shooter![/B]

:applause:

fixed , but true

[Basketball r Us]

Still can’t believe Lakers got this guy….

[Cyrus334]

Him and Monk are dumb. Ring chasing at their age by taking vet minumum's and banking on getting a payday next year when they won't be able to show off anything in the playoffs when they're playing little minutes. Look what happened to Harrel.

[iamgine]

I'm guessing this is not only about ring chasing, but about becoming a better player. When else would you have a chance to learn every single day from the best players in the game.

Nunn also turned down a lot of $$$ to play overseas when he was in the G-league.

[8Ball]

Idiot players taking less than market value. Reminds me of when Harrell did that. Oh wait...

Harrell didn't have a market that wanted to pay him more than the mid level.

same for Joe Harris.

This dude literally has Klay potential and he's fine being the 5th wheel, never realizing himself.

[kabacho]

Most stacked team ever I have seen enough

Off the bench, imo he’s replacing Dennis

I’m not sure who starts at sg. Maybe bazemore

[bladefd]

Harrell didn't have a market that wanted to pay him more than the mid level.

He is also an undersized big man who plays crappy defense and has no range. Nunn and monk play very different positions and don't have the same issues as Harrell.

[bladefd]

They have the training camp to figure out the starting sg and can also change it during the season. There is no player like Dennis Schroeder this time demanding to start.

[90sgoat]

If LA beats them, it'll be due to defense and paint dominance.

And that's quite possible and even likely.

Nets have two bonafide bitches in Durant and Harden and one streaky loon in Kyrie.

These guys are softer than Curry and they don't have Klay, Iggy or Dray to offset that.

Here's what will happen, Lakers will bully them into giving up before game 5. Lakers win 4-2.

It's what happened to Mavs vs Clips and even Spurs vs Heat.

Stacked front court > stacked back court.

If your "bigs" like Durant or Bosh get bullied big time, then it is a psychological mindrape.

[tanibanana]

Finally, Lakers got someone not over the hill.

[Nike D'Antoni]

He has suffered setback, will he ever play for Lakers?
