Hope Bulls don’t make that trade, it will put Lakers in top 3 in West
I doubt it.
There are still a lot of issues between LeBron (ball dominant playmaker) and DeRozan (midrange iso player non floor spacer).
Then there is Vucevic whose slow feet put pressure on the rest of the defense. Will he get enough touches & shot attempts on offense to make up for his slow footed defense?
And where does AD fit in? Can they keep the amount of shot attempts he needs while LeBron and DeRozan take theirs? While Vucevic looks to get in on the action?
Looks more like a 45-50 win to me. Individual pieces that are imppressive but ultimately pieces that do not fit well together. Not as bad as Westbrook & LeBron but still bad. A good team but not a contender.
