Man that birthday cake looked delicious.
I wonder if the dippers sang happy birthday to Marcus.

His role in the playoffs was next to nothing after the Portland series but he's a great teammate and glue guy.

Typical how quickly we forget how much McGee meant to our team. He may not have played well in the bubble, but he was a key player for us the regular season. His hustle, protection, lob threat and energy have been great this season. He is a body u need during the regular season, so preserve AD in the playoff, some here just have short memory.

Best of McGee



LBJ, AD, McGee, KCP, DS (Great lineup and preserve our unity)
Caruso, Kuz, THT (just need to fill the rest properly so Coach V can have the flexibility to adjust in the playoff)

His best contribution in the bubble was his YouTube videos. But seriously, I love the guy and hope he stays.

I am happy he is back, we need a center in the regular season so we dont overuse AD at center.

Lakers center JaVale McGee will exercise his $4.2M player option for 2020-21 season, sources tell @TheAthleticNBA @Stadium.

Dwight/Boogie along with Morris if we re-sign him as a small ball option along with AD for small stretches.

McGee was becoming unplayable

Overreaction.

JaVale will give us 12-15 minutes and add versatility. His $4.2 million expiring is also movable if necessary.

Dude wasn’t opting out no matter what. No team would have given him more than the min. Better to take the money here. He either gets traded or he stays with a team he likes in a city he likes, but either way he gets paid.

You guys are acting like he wasn't a huge part of the team in the regular season. We still have to play regular season games. He is fine.

Memories are shot around here.. This guy is part of the reason why our defense was top notch last season. Some of these posts are odd..

Welcome back Javale.

He's still 7 feet and can jump. That's worth the contract he has and we can move him if we have to as well.

He looked fine before the bubble. Then when the bubble started he looked like he aged 5 years. What happened?

Couldn’t agree more. Lakers won with defense. I’m glad he is opting in but wouldn’t be shocked to see him traded.

McGee was a part of that. Same as Green and Bradley. All the comments diminishing the contributions last season are very odd. Don’t even get me started on the ongoing narrative that Cousins is a suitable replacement.

FO has work to do. As of today the Lakers are not as good or deep a team as they were. How they fill out about 5 roster spots will tell us a lot about the season.

Nothing about him was different. The playoffs are about matchups. The kind of big he is just didn't give the Lakers their best chances to win against the teams they played.
