His fit is perfect next to Lebron, as well Westbrook. Dump DeAndre Jordan.

He can be Lebron new Mike Miller, and Kyle Korver.

He is having a lot of positives. In a team with lots of washed-up players (in particular DeAndre Jordan), he deserves a bigger role. He is a very good fit next to Lebron or Westbrook.

If he can prove to be a consistent 3 point shooter, and ok defender. Its only the 3rd game into the season. Could replace the need for old Ariza or Ellington with younger legs

If Jordan got touches, I truly believe he could be a 12/10 guy

Isn't he playing in Denver and sporting negative PER? Not an easy feat to accomplish.

He's still very young. I wouldn't put starters minutes pressure on him yet, even though I agree that he seems to be a good fit. Bring him along slowly and let him build his confidence. He could end up starting in the Finals like Caruso. Thing is, it's nice to have good players coming off the bench too.

A game-winner today. He is earning it.

Should def play more than Melo. If Melo is on, give him some mins otherwise he gives up twice what he scores.

He wasn't completely dominated when matched up on Tim Hardaway who's an athletic caliber nba wing.

Ultimately you're going to see the carousel of Bradley Ellington and Reaves based on match ups.

Monk is in a good role as a 6th man along with Melo. I imagine Ariza will be in that lineup woth Melo and Monk

He’s already good enough to take THTs starting spot but lakers put money into THT so they wanna keep developing him.
