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.
