Deng was productive in Miami.
But, it was also clear he was not the same guy he had been in Chicago. Thibs ran him into the ground.
SF Deng was average.
PF Deng was very good.

Hey- I think Ball can be a good player someday- maybe even a very good player. I think Ball can be a Rondo/Rubio someday- I dont think hes a bad player by any means. Considering his baggage, how he has played, his injuries, and how awesome Tatum is- if I was the guy that took him at #2 youd be talking me off a ledge right now though. Tatum looks like a guy who can be a top 10 player. Ball looks like he can be Rondo or Rubio if he takes his shooting from absolutely hideous to just below average.There's a lot I can't argue with.
But the 2014 draft was awful where the Lakers were picking (seriously, go back and look at how bad it was), and you are seriously underestimating how good Ball is. Most rookies are absolutely abused defensively as rookies, Ball was a stud on that end. His shooting is the only thing holding him back from stardom.
lol...my worst case scenario was the Lakers getting George and Leonard and winning a title.
LeBron going to LA and using the area to further his bank account and movie career while never winning anything is FAR from a worst case scenario. LOL.
The fact that the Lakers could only get Deng and Mozgov proves my point. Those guys aren't franchise changing talents. They are very good pickups for a team in the Lakers situation (a team trying to develop young talent and get back into contention)."
You-- Sept. 8, 2016.
dude this guy believed me, you cant say NO ONE lolLol. You really are this stupid.You have shown that, once again, you took posts out of context and now you've shown that I said exactly what I said I did. In short, you just showed that you have, as usual, taken posts out of context to pick fights.
I will remind you that the last time you started dragging up old threads and posts and taking them out of context...it resulted in a meltdown and you being banned.
With the leash you're on...you won't have a chance to meltdown again.
dude this guy believed me, you cant say NO ONE lol
