A Reaves has now had 23pts, 22pts and 23pts in the first three games of this series. He has also added 8ast, 5ast and 5ast in those three games. So 22ppg and 6apg. All while shooting very good percentages from the floor.
He will be gone from the Lakers for a big payday this summer
It is interesting to think about what type of shape LAL will be in if A Reaves leaves. They don't have a whole lot else going on there.
D Russell has been even more inconsistent than normal which saying something because he is inconsistent even when he is at his best. He just isn't that comfortable sharing the ball with LeBron. He wants more time on the ball. That is not a marriage made in heaven. Yet, it appears the best marriage proposal on the table for both player and team.
But where does the help come from? To go from a lucky playoff run to a legit contender? To replace your 3rd best player? To make the additions on top of that replacement to move forward?
LAL is in trouble if A Reaves leaves.
