Xavier was good.

 

[Mexi]

Id keep bazemore, young and meeks over him honestly
Maybe find someone via free agency or draft

 

[The Young One]

We're opposites on that. I think Bazemore sucks honestly.

 

[Mexi]

Nah

 

[dcpwner]

Bazemore is an end of the bench guy as it stands Mexi...idk how you could deny that.

He's a chucker who's alright at 3's. Ceiling is like a 10th man at best imo.

I agree, I think Mexi likes him for the same reason he likes Giannis. He's got height and length at his position and he shows flashes, but anyone in the NBA can have a good night. Also 10th man is basically end of the bench no? I mean there are 12 active players. Id say The starters are starters and the next 5 off the bench are the bench guys. 10-12 are the end of the bench.

I was agreeing with you with the 10th man comment.

oh word

Most of those guys are end of the bench types who are just getting a lot of minutes. Aside from Meeks none of them would be rotation players on good teams.

Agreed and even Meeks I don't view as Mich more than a shooter off the bench

 

[footballplaya52]

The Lakers have what? 17 guards right now?

That's the problem.

 

[playmaker7]

The Lakers have more problems than their surplus of guards...

+1

I don't really agree with that either. Henry is at least a utility man and Bazemore is a streaky below average specialist

 

[Mexi]

His ceiling isnt a 10th man
Thats for guys like jimmer or seth curry

And say what you want about bazemore, but hes better than xavier

Bazemore's ceiling is trevor ariza, more likely a journeyman type like shannon brown, tony douglas, bur imo hes going to be a decent player

 

[jonathanlambert33]

He won't ever even be as good as Trevor Ariza.
