You do need at least a top 10 player to win the Finals though and at least the Lakers already have that.

Other pieces are easier to get.

Yeah, but they are a lot of pieces away.

I like Reaves, and think he's great, but him and Luka together are two massive marks on the defensive end. I dont think they work together unless the rest of your roster is loaded with defenders.

How can they get a center? What happens when Lebron leaves? Who is the 2nd all-star they can get next to Luka?

They are in great position to be a playoff team for years to come, but they arent in a great position to build a true contender.

I am intriuged to see Luka next season. If getting bounced by Gobert in a Game 5 doesnt light a fire under your *** to take your conditioning to the next level, I dont know what will.

LMAO even I wrote off Rudy this series. What a ****ing game after the duds he layed. To do it in a very visible game too.

Yeah, Rudy was terrific, smoked the centerless, unathletic Lakers. Awful 3-point shooting for both teams (Edwards 0-11, Randle 1-6, DiVincenzo 2-12, Luka, 2-8, LeBron 1-5, Reeves 2-10). Didn’t help the Lakers that LeBron and Luka, who play no defense, played 40 minutes each.

Answer’s right in front of you - turn Reeves into a decent young center.

Lebron played great defense that series. Luka might have played the worst defense I have ever seen though.
