If you want 3 & D defender types I can only think of Jerami Grant and Covington |

Otto Porter and Jeff Green will be nice for vet minimum signing.
I want 2020 playstyle… Lebron being a PG/Playmaker… Running twin towers and a long with shooters and defensive wings. |

Otto Porter won't be available for the minimum IMO and Jeff Green is getting up there in age. Taurean Prince is a name I look out for because the Wolves are already stacked with young wings and will probably need to keep salaries down to fund ANT's upcoming contract while maintaining their small market budget. I like Roco and Batum as well but Ballmer will offer them more just to keep them away from us. My ideal scenario if we free up the full MLE and BAE would be Otto, Taurean, and Hartenstein.

| As long as LBJ is on the team it will always be Bron ball especially if Jackson is our coach. |

| I'd like to see more motion in the offense. More ball movement and less isolation. And for the love of god no more possessions where we walk it up, Lebron dribbles the ball for the entire clock and then hoists up a three as the clock expires. |

Yes, I say ISO every time down and combine it with low effort matador defense.
Oh snap, that was this season.

I want to root for guys that are TRUE Lakers.
I'm done with these 1 year rentals.
It hurts seeing DLO, BI and all our other former youngsters flourishing in the playoffs.
I want to root for guys that have put in the work and been thru the ups and downs with the team. That's what made this Rams Super Bowl win so sweet for me. The tears of joy Aaron Donald and co. shed after that win.....legit.

Along w/backdoor plays, lots of backdoor plays. |
Hopefully a well oiled machine. |
Maybe even some two on ones.

1. Slow the pace down. No need to run like brainless chickens. Lots of To's are coming as the result of running without plan.
2. To have at least few actions where shooters are alone and open.
3. To play more PnR of LBJ and AD
4. AD to go to the basket and stop trying to be Duncan with these jumpers.
5. Reduce minutes to LBJ to 30 per.
6. To be good defensive team and to develop that as season progress.
7. NO (bleep) SMALL BALL. Bring some big guys to the team. |

Young and exciting. Not old and out dated.

Better hope Mark Jackson isn't coach then. |
Not a fan of Mark as a coach or commentator |
