2744382, So Denver and Utah will dominate the West next season. Posted by allStah, Sat Jul-31-21 11:18 AM
I don’t get the Lakers. I really don’t. They never really go after what they need. The acquisition of Westbrook is up there with the Gary Payton/Malone and Howard/Nash pickups, and those teams suffered due to having too many pieces that needed the ball in order to be effective.
Westbrook is a ball dominant guard, who can’t shoot, is still a turnover machine, and he isn’t a good defender. The amount of points that the wizards allowed last season at the guard position was insane.
He is a good guy, and gives his all as a player, but lacks the IQ and fundamentals to truly help a team.
Bron is old. AD is injury prone, and Westbrook is one dimensional, and the roster is depleted.
All the lakers had to do was be patient. Randle, Ingram, Ball, Hart, Clarkson. That would have been their big 3, and two excellent sixth men.
