I would use bass and black at pf with hibbert at center. he needs a mobile rebounding 4 to cover his lack of mobility at defense. He can play great def if he just stay inside to guard the paint.
on offense, he should be only be use to post up shorter centers or stand outside to look for open 20 footers.
if he sets a pick it should be a pop and never roll.
but yeah, when he's driving and kicking, you know something wrong with the BS offense |
He's too flawed as a player, rather just roll with Sacre |

This team gives the least amount of effort I've seen as a Laker fan. Every team before this one gave some effort, even if they were terrible. These guys just look like they think they can't win. | exactly! this is the mistrusting culture that dingleberrie has created. lets blame the youngsters cuz its easy to blame them. EFF BYRON!!! |

No, Jerry West did. Ever since West has left, there has been a talent drain on the Lakers that has never been rectified.
Mitch has mostly been a disaster IMO. He wasted prime Kobe years with wastes like Smush and Kwame. He got insanely lucky with the Kwame for Pau trade, and then subsequently created another disaster with Nash/Dwight. He rode the coat-tails of Jerry West for too long. He needs to go just as much as Byron needs to.
Clean it out. West brought us Shaq/Kobe They are now retired. I don't have any faith that Mitch can build a team on his own. |
Well if you do something as dumb as call the good things he did lucky, your opinion means little. |
It was luck. How many teams dump trash for an All Star PF? That was one move.
We are horrible right now, and have been horrible for 3 straight years - due to Mitch. Period. |
And we'll be even worse without Mitch. Period. Also Mitch is grooming Ryan West (Jerry's son) to be the future GM. |

I don't think we can get worse than 55-61-67 loss seasons. |

What I mean Ryan is not ready to take over yet thus why Mitch is grooming him. |

Its a forgone conclusion their time is up, I doubt any team can recover from being this bad for several years. The only way was to get several #1 picks like the Cavs |

this has got be a legit troll post right?
first of all you say Hibbert could be better if he was used correctly?!
then you say Bass and Black should play 4 as Hibbert needs a rebounding 4......yet neither of those guys are consistently good rebounders and Julius randle - who plays 4 - has just pulled down 10.2 boards per game in effectively his rookie season....bruh....?! _________________ "We might have had the worst season ever or could have the worst season ever for a Lakers team, but now let's have the greatest comeback that the league has ever seen." - Kobe Bryant |

The 76ers are in a death spiral. All of their losing has lead to what? Noel is role player. Maybe Okafor works out? Then what?
You can rebuild and still be fun/winning team. Like the Celtics are doing.
The Lakers/76ers are death. Even the TWolves are bad but you can still their young core is a group of ballers. We got nothing by role guys for all this losing. |
