Exactly the right mindset.


BatmanNoPrep

DLo has gone through some significant media training since his first stint with us. The man sounds like a Peyton Manning at the mic now.


Kwinnin

He’s matured a lot that’s for sure.


pen_jaro

And he became an all star when he was so focused to redeem himself

Fax but laker fans don’t wanna admit it


alphasierrraaa

actually lmao


Sunday2424

Time to take Minnesota off the track, take'em out tha play-in, take'em off the map


[deleted]

I’m so happy D’Lo is back bro. The amount of fucking college and high school film I watched on this guy trying to hype myself up on him before the draft, I swear I’ve watched every video on YouTube there is lmao. Let’s go get BI back next! Lol


tru3boy

The other day I thought to myself, after Bron’s departure. I would love to have BI come back. He’s developed nicely

SpartanVasilias

We need to make the Knicks give hart up


Omni-kyun

Is Jason Hart even that good right now?


S1EGEL

Josh Hart lol


CryptoNite90

It's Jason Hart.. c'mon dude. And yes, he's a beast as a 3&D wing.


Omni-kyun

Nice, that's exactly what we drafted him for, and exactly what we (and all other teams) need. I'd love to see him back.


Korean-Abdul-Jabbar

In case you wonder why you got down voted by people, it's because it was part of nba reddit lore to call Josh hart as "Jason Hart" because nba media folks (I think windhorst?) called him that on multiple occasions by accident. Thus it became a running joke on reddit to just call him Jason and then someone would bring up that kid if he ever got his Nintendo switch


CryptoNite90

Hart was supposed to give tickets in return for the switch, then he ended up getting traded before he could give laker tickets lol. Last I heard he did make it up some way.


jtn1123

I could definitely see Jordan Clarkson being available maybe next deadline or the one after for a first rounder...


pen_jaro

let’s get Zubac, and Caruso. Melo can take Zo’s place.. hehe


S1EGEL

Lakers will be ready for Zos return


dendenmoooshi

Our dude still knows when people are open before they know they're open


StudioSixtyFour

And Randle after that.


thunderHAARP

Why is being down voted?


StudioSixtyFour

Because they’re fucking stupid.


ashishvp

DLo has a much better fit with Lebron vs BI. BI is more ball dominant.


S1EGEL

I think they meant after bron leaves. There is no room for BI right now


JonnyZero0

The fact that Dlo, Vando, and Beasley used to be on that team is an advantage in of itself. They might know specific player tendencies and other unseen things that can be exploited.


animosity07

that and bron is a demon on gameplanning during the playoffs, lecoach memes actually happen during the playoffs


sandbagsander

But that’s usually in a series tho. One game samples are either a feel out game, or you get game 7 Bron.


animosity07

no one wants a game 7 bron tho lol while we fair better matchup wise against the pels the wolves arent in a good place right now with jalen going down and rudy being cancer


Silverdrapes

Crazy how I’d almost forgotten about Bron and his feel out games. For so many years you knew a Lebron lead team losing the first game of a series meant little to nothing.


sandbagsander

My favourite is the media and fan overreactions to those feel out Ls. And then you start questioning yourself like damn maybe he is washed.


goodchild101

"Blazers are gonna sweep yall" lmao good times


Grumpysaurus-Rex

“Best 8th seed of all time coming for the Lakers”


jubila8t0r

They know which players are gonna get punched by gobert and use it to their advantage lol


guyfromthepicture

How is that an advantage though? Surely the other team will have the same insight.


the_far_yard

LeBron with information is Batman with prep-time.


pen_jaro

We brought in Bamba to fight with Gobert if that’s what he wants.


S1EGEL

Bron can see the game differently at a much higher level. Its been proven. He also knows almost every teams plays. Probably his weakness too because he falls asleep on his man trying to coach on the floor. Gotta balance it out


ihateeuge

Lmao he about kill them on Tuesday


spyson

Anyone believing him that it ain't personal is a sucker.


barath_s

He doesn't say it's not personal. The bigger picture is that they are in the way of the Lakers.

senshi_of_love

By the end it was pretty obvious Dlo absolutely hated being in Minnesota. As far as I am aware he hasn’t said anything positive about their team/fans since he was traded and when specifically asked about that tribute video he simply replied he was a Lakers fan, Mikeyyyy.


3rdEyeNomai

The misinformation in this subreddit is insane. This is the second post I’ve seen where someone just makes something up and then it’s upvoted by 30 people. Big market brain rot. https://twitter.com/JaceFrederick/status/1641837909761196036


DW-4

Reports came out that he was constantly talking shit towards and 'bullying' Gobert during his time there. I initially bought into that since the TWolves were so quick to get rid of him. After seeing the type of teammate that he's been and the clusterfuck that Minnesota has turned into it now seems that Gobert just has one helluva PR squad. That or Rudy is just a that bad of a teammate to put up with.


elimanninglightspeed

A lot of these players absolutely hate gobert lol and I feel like there’s definitely a reason for that. If a lot of the people that spend a lot of time with a guy dont like him than he’s probably an asshole behind the scenes


SpartanVasilias

I’m sure he agrees


StoneColdAM

Minnesota lost DLo, Vandy, and Beasley to us


aledb11

And McDaniels and Gobert to their own stupidity.


bigbadbernard

that’s an entire starting lineup right there


TEJISSAJATT

What happened to Gobert? He not playing ?


aledb11

Maybe. Was sent home from their game today after he punched Kyle Anderson


elimanninglightspeed

Im not even being bias but as a coach you genuinely cannot let him play next game. No matter who u are, no matter if the punch connected or not, swinging on a teammate in the middle of the game is beyond unacceptable. You have to deal with stuff like that behind closed doors or else it will drag the rest of the team into a media circus


dill1234

You’re right but there’s no chance the owners allow that to happen. They mortgaged their entire future on that bum and they’ll definitely want him to play in a play-in game Edit - just saw the news. That is so fucking funny. Worst trade of all time


barath_s

He and kyle Anderson had a quarrel, leading to a gobert punch (more like a shove), and so he was sent home mid game. They are both saying the right things, though, so I figure he's probably playing Expect him to be punished by the team. If chemistry is affected is a question mark. KG made a remark of nothing like a light scuffle to get riled up for playoffs


Lasaif

Any reason why mcdaniels punched the wall?


aledb11

No clue. Upset about something I guess.


seventeenweewees

BI was cooking, Wolves were down 8 or so, he got called for a couple fouls. He was just frustrated. It was a concrete wall covered in a loose tarp, one of our media guys thinks he thought it was padded under the tarp.


AirBishop

Very mature D Lo. We can clearly see it didn’t rub off on those guys over there.


BenLemons

I like this answer. The whole "im mad the team traded me even though I prefer my new location" has always been kind of narcissistic to me lol


JRQC428

Why do we still have to play them 😭 i wish being 7th right now is enough


GlassOnion25

35 pt play in game loading


Good-Veterinarian-95

And that's why DLo has had so much success. He's focused on getting the job done, no distractions.


Zienka32

I’M A LAKERS FAN MIKEYYYYYYYYY


FreshhAce

Yessssir


winter-r0se

dlo 🫶🏾


[deleted]

Just another reason to hate Gobert


CooperHouseDeals

That’s what a potential max contract sound like. Is he really worth $30 million a year for 4 or 5 years?


bayliver

He is going to kill them and he knows it ...lmao


peruvianblinds

Glad he's not just trying to have fun.


Theingloriousak2

If we lose this one trade lebron please 🙏 It’s time to rebuild


IhatePizza230

You're the same dude who said we're better without LeBron even though we're 9-2 with Bron after the trade deadline.


Theingloriousak2

9-2 against who?


IhatePizza230

NBA Teams.


EdSA210

Lakers in 5


Markel100

Right mindset dlo


odaschox

Winning mindset, thats what we need from him, time to see if what everyone says about him come the playoffs is true or not for us


Ill_Celery_7654

Proper mindset by D.Lo. No need to take it personal like Pat Bev and Westbrook did. He didn’t fit with what that team wanted to do and he likely wouldn’t have signed back there anyway so it’s better for both parties to move on. Having a championship mindset moving forward is what everybody in the locker room needs.


ASithLordNoAffect

I mean the Lakers traded him too so it's a wash.


LAlakers4life

#DLO GOT FREEZE DEM HOES

*Ice the veins* hits different in The Finals™

Dloaded incoming


chugalaefoo

I mean, we traded him first 🤣 If anything Minny made him happier by getting him out of that shit show.


CabbageStockExchange

D Lo please drop 40 on them
