Opportunity is knocking for Robinson with Nance being out. He needs to show he's ready to step up.

Jesus Christ, that can't be right can it? 5 years?! |
No, lakers were 45-37 in 2012-2013 |
Wanted to say this. But I'm guessing he probably meant in November. |
Yes, fixed. Got a late start on this one so I think it might be a little sloppy as I tried to push through it. |

If Luke is the major addition to this team, I'm happy. He's instilled a sense of purpose and maturity with this team. Two things in particular: 1) bringing JC off the bench after JC signs the big extension; 2) making Swaggy P a starter not only because he's become a better defender, but to have him work with DLo on the floor, a trust building effort to smooth over the whole Iggy situation. Before the season, Swaggy was considered expendable and DLo a backstabbing snitch. Now you see, in this game and the ATL game, DLo making the play to dish to Swaggy for the closing dagger. Great team building! |
Great post. I completely agree. I love seeing those two share in a great play together. It's very cathartic. |
Yep.  |

Team is entering the stage where consistency and continuous commitment to the system when they hit a bad patch lies before them
LouWill being the consistently dependable player who can calm the team at critical time and create his own shot. JC, Randle and DLo are learning
it will be exciting to see this team grow. |

| the evolution of Julius Randle is the perfect title. Really evolving over these 7 games. Biggest story of our young core so far. And the best part about it is - him becoming an impact player is really just icing on the cake, or the finishing piece to our puzzle.. If he becomes an impact, top 10 PF - we're guaranteed to be a really good team in a few years. |
