Kaboom 3,244 Posted September 22, 2017 Share Posted September 22, 2017 I didn't see a blurb about this, but apparently he has some kind of back injury and might miss part of the preseason. The Bogut signing makes a lot more sense with this news. Cause for concern? http://www.ocregister.com/2017/09/18/andrew-bogut-to-sign-1-year-deal-with-lakers/ Quote Link to post Share on other sites

thrilla1nManila 1,300 Posted September 22, 2017 Share Posted September 22, 2017 I'm not too worried about it. they specifically said "pre season" and BroLo has been relatively healthy the last 2-3 years 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I am more concerned with how well he will mesh with Ball, Ingram, and Randle. Those guys like to run a lot not sure how Brook will adjust to that pace. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

prefuse1 75 Posted September 22, 2017 Share Posted September 22, 2017 There were videos of him working out recently, so I am hoping it isn't anything too serious. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
RedDogNamedClippers 2,371 Posted September 22, 2017 Share Posted September 22, 2017 How much do we see him getting the ball? He is not really the future for the Lakers however if they are really trying to make the post season this year then maybe I can see some burn at the expense of other players development.

Mikhov 574 Posted September 22, 2017 Share Posted September 22, 2017 I like his upside in the scoring cats (pts,fg,ft) because of the PnR/P's with Lonzo plus he should split time with Bogut as a rim protector (blocks) in addition to his ability as a floor spacer. My concerns are how much time and usage he'll get down the line and his meh rebounding (which fantasy owners know well). Question marks about his durability and being traded to a worse situation are up in the air but I wouldn't let him slide past the mid 40s Quote Link to post Share on other sites

IsraeliPSYCHO 254 Posted October 13, 2017 Share Posted October 13, 2017 he's easily the best scorer on the lakers right now and still in his prime .. i expect stats in line with what he did last year, if not better. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Boogie Buckets 454 Posted October 20, 2017 Share Posted October 20, 2017 Submitting his first application for the Brick Layers Guild. If I didn't also have Capela the God, I'd be pretty pissed about my starting Center destroying my fg%. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Trench Mob 1,691 Posted October 20, 2017 Share Posted October 20, 2017 Garbage time glass cleaning right now. Actually attempting to chase the ball. I won't complain at the end results. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
jay14bay 861 Posted October 20, 2017 Share Posted October 20, 2017 20 pts 6 reb 1 3pm 2 ast 2 stocks poor fg% money at the line Add 1.5 more 3pm and it's exactly the kind of line I expect from Brolo this year. Glad to see the 19 fga. Deandre made all his post ups tough today he'll do better on those and of course hopefully a few more treys drop. The rest is as advertised.
