They might even think about giving run to a super-big lineup featuring no traditional point guard -- something like Hart, Ingram, James, Kuzma and McGee/Johnathan Williams. Hart needs to play more than Rondo, period.
The (bleep) is wrong with people. Lakers have TWO capable starting point guards and either they get played together (a la Luke wonky lineup) or people (Zach "I play fantasy league" Lowe) wants to run without any point guards.
Not sure who is stupider Luke or Lowe but they both get short bus awards.
Hart is one of the cornerstones of this Lakers team. Not so sure about Ball.
I said it when drafted. Not everyone has to be a highlight reel or even superstar. He is a better Derek Fisher in the mold of mike Connolly but off ball. Perfect guy next to any superstar
Nice little bounce back game for Josh. He still was getting blown by on the perimeter, but his man D against that one Blazer big was on point when he was at the 4.

That ice skating move Josh pulled in the clutch when his foot slipped and he somehow saved the play? Won an impossible battle with gravity on that one.
Clutch as can be - I really like having Hart in the closing lineup. He's not the star, but a great complimentary player who helps win close games.
He is Derek Fisher with actual basketball skills (besides a 3 point shot and a flop)
Fisher was pretty bad his first couple of years, I think it was the year when he came back late in the season from a foot injury that he start hitting shots consistently from outside. Hart so far has shot the 3 a lot better than a young Fisher. _________________ Ringo "You retired too?"

Just to even have the presence of mind to realize his foot was close to the baseline, lift his leg, and still concentrate on securing the ball was just so impressive. _________________ "Suck it up. Don't be a baby. Do your job." - Kobe Bryant

Is the consensus that Hart is better or worse than D'Angelo Russell right now? Would you guys swap straight-up if given the option? Weird that a second round pick is putting up comparable numbers to a former #2 pick. _________________ Damian Lillard shatters Dwight Coward's championship dreams:

that last several #2 picks have been being outplayed by our later picks...
but yeah, Hart > DLO.
IMO, if we want to trade for someone like AD, the package should be built around Zo and BI, not Hart and Kuzma.

DLO over Hart for me. But I’m disappointed with DLO at this stage of his career and can see Hart ultimately being a more useful player for his role (like on a winning team and not the focus of a rebuild) if he can stay consistent _________________ Austin Reaves

Hart is a first round pick. _________________ Nobody in the NBA can touch the Laker brand, which, like the uniform color, is pure gold.
Hart is >>>>>>>>>>>>Dlo and its not even close. Unfortunately, if I am the Pels, the trade STARTS with Hart and Kuz.
That’s not where the trade starts
It is These two guys would HAVE to be included. The Pels would obviously want some talent on rookie contracts for a few more years. Without these two included in the deal, the Pels would hang up the phone.
