Dwight and Rondo are completely different beasts. Rondo was a problem because he was competitive and didn’t think the coach was doing what was best for the team. Then he was in Sacramento, enough said. Dwight doesn’t play hard, he doesn’t care about winning, and treats the game as a hobby.

Not caring about winning is different from butting heads with a coach. Get over Dwight, dude can’t win and is bouncing around lottery teams for a reason.


I agree with that distinction... and I agreed with Yinoma that Lopez would have been a good compromise choice. I just am annoyed that reserve centers have been having their way with us so far... if this changes once the season starts, then I will be fine with the center situation.


Dwight walking up and down the court, clogging the paint because he’s unwilling to set screens and laughing about missed dunks is far more annoying than a few Plumlee put backs. Let’s have some perspective here, the dude would rather lose and play his way than play for the team and win. You can’t have that on a roster trying to win a ring. You take a less talented replacement.

What you say is true in principle... but sometimes desire isn't enough to do anything. I'm sure half the people on this board have more desire than even some of the team... but as we don't have the skill to do anything about it... we remain on the sidelines.

I agree there might be a happy medium... but people vetoed Boogie because of his injury... Dwight because of his attitude... Brook because of his foot speed... and now here we are with Boban and Plumlee looking like Wilt against us.

I went into preseason completely trusting that the FO knows more than I do... expecting to see ferocious defense and the competitive fire that some of these vets were going to bring. Instead I found lackluster defense combined with worse rebounding and shooting.

I'm still keeping a positive attitude as Lonzo and Moe haven't played... and LBJ has only played 15-20 minutes... but although JaVale has been good... he's not shown the ability to go full time.

This is why I wanted one of those three centers. If Mo is NBA ready and Zu gets better fast then maybe we will be okay... but so far, it looks like we are in trouble. This didn't matter the past four years... but this year we no longer have the luxury of experimenting with scrubs.

I guess you don't understand the hate that many Lakers have towards Dwight after the way he burned bridges. It's more about Dwight the person that makes it a no go. I guarantee you that Jeannie would personally say no to him ever returning.

I think you deeply underestimate how much of a problem he is in the locker room. Rondo cares too much; Dwight is the opposite.

If Howard had Rondo’s mentality he would have had a couple of titles, the only reason why Rondo doesn’t have more rings right now is because he played with either average teams or playoff teams since he left the Celtics.

I wouldn't say that's the "only" reason. He's a mixed bag. He's a great facilitator and good defender (though that's slipped over the best year). He is also a terrible shooter who tends to miss 10-20 a game a year because of injuries. It's been a while since he's been in the top third/top half of NBA point guards but he can still contribute.

Aldrich may be a somewhat reliable vet but uninspiring IMO.


although I would prefer someone like Woods as I addressed in earlier post, I would be ok with Aldrich on our bench. A big body that can at least provide resistance at the rim. I am honestly not sure what our plan is when we play against teams with true big men when Javale is not on the court. Jokic had his way with us when Javale was not on the court.


The Randle/AD front court is going to feast on us unless Lebron/Vale play big minutes.

We might have multiple guys injured that game. Randle is going to be dishing out punishment.

his contract is poison.

Knicks may buy him out.

Is he? Any more than Stephenson?


I don't think Stephsobn is a poison I see him as an Artest. With the right people around him he could be a motivator.

Stephenson has always had a winning mentality which has helped a lot of players when he’s been on the team... not sure I would consider that term for him when a great leader like LeBron wanted him on the team.

I don't think he's a poison, but he's a mixed big. He'll make some brilliant plays and some idiotic ones, because he's a low-IQ player. He's tough and will irritate people, but he's not a great defender. He rebounds well, shoots poorly.

There's a reason he's been on 7 teams in the last 3 years. His talent intrigues people but he's so erratic as a player he isn't quite worth the bother.

When I look at our roster, we have so many 2-3 I think someone's going to get a lot of DNP-CD, and I think it will be Lance. Which is OK. I hope the time goes to Hart, Ball, and Ingram rather than the one year rentals.

Low IQ players don’t make nice passes which he’s shown in the preseason he can, not sure why you guys never can appreciate a player when he’s a Laker unless he’s a absolute star.

I appreciate Lance. However, I appreciate his flaws as well as his strengths.

Like I said, Lance will give you a bunch of amazing plays, but also a bunch of stupid plays.

I rarely see a list of low-IQ players that doesn't include Lance. He is the king of the boneheaded play.

When the Pacers let him go, the team president Kevin Pritchard said:“Sometimes, he was the best player on our team and sometimes he was the best player on the other team.”

That about sums up Lance.

He isn’t a pure PG to make a quick play, he is a versatile player who can do a lot of things with the ball.

Considering that JaVale hasn't played "big minutes" (a lot of minutes or critical period minutes) since mid-season 2012, it doesn't seem likely that the Lakers will be counting on him for much more than part-time work. I figure that we may see him log on average 12-14 MPG at best, and within that, his time coming at the start of each half.

Hahahah a center Thread has turned into a pro and con page of Lance.

I guess you did not get the memo. Lance plays center in Luke's dynamic 5 guard line up.

Okay I made that up or did I?
