If another fan base has a need that they could have addressed in the draft but failed to I absolutely will.You do this to any other fanbase?
As if he's Wemby or Chet.
Especially seeing how the Lakers could greatly benefit from his services and he might be struggling for playing time once Tari Eason comes back... cam could have been a key contributor for the Lakers and he may be relegated to the bench for us because of our young talent at the wing position (Tate, Amen, Eason)
Rockets took him because he was a projected lottery pick that fell way further than he should have. And if I'm being honest, golden state could have used him, but they went with a local boy instead and he's worked out well. Can't knock Miami Jaime is a beast so that's a solid pick. LAKERS seemingly screwed the pooch on this one and all over twitter you have Laker fans whining about how they should hand drafted him and that your gm is an idiot.
Fouls were called every other play and there wasn't much motion offense happening. Now the game is played at 110 mph and every one on the court is a 3 point threat. Because of advertisements and "doubleheaders" fouls are rarely called in this era save for a few star players to help with broadcast time restraints. Today's guys take way more contact. The old heads were washed up after 13-15 seasons cuz they didn't work out and didn't live in the gym. Today's players are all playing longer and the stars are still posting 30 points a game and trip dubs in their mid 30's because they are more skilled and taking care of their bodies. What you say makes 0 sense. Eventually the rule will be changed when bums start receiving these awards and accolades because stars are hurt. It devalues them greatly. Joker winning MVP this year as a giveaway only because Embiid is hurt isn't the narrative you want attached to your awards. Its like bragging about being an all star reserve.
