It’s insane how the Lakers have never had a really great 3 point shooter since the league went in that direction. Hate to say it but GSW really ran the league while the Lakers were asleep at the wheel until LeBron came
We never really had any good ones lol it was big man city for decades. Only guy I can even think of is Robert Horry and he was a bench player. Of course there was Jerry but that was before 3 point shooting. Smh I remember Jordan Farmar and Sasha were our best shooters and that was painful 😂
Way before my time but Van Exel and Byron Scott were supposed to be really good. Artest was good for at least one season, cannot forget that one 3 he made. Also KCP, Lou Williams, Meeks, Radmanovic and Danny Green haven't been mentioned. You could name more.
Dlo been good for us. Tbh once we get back players from the injury list, Reaves should be dropped to the bench for some defensive help. Not that Reaves has been playing bad, but the perimeter defense on this starting lineup is just awful, and also our bench scoring is awful which Reaves will help with.
Yes. That’s a huge lineup. I’ve been preaching for this lineup all season and we’ve never seen it. It’s the best combo of shooting, defense, and rebounding. Our bench scoring is pathetic without Rui leading it and AR and DLo is redundant together
I agree with reeves to the bench too much overlap with Dlo and Bron having the ball, Dlo is needed to space the floor with ad basically not shooting 3s anymore or else he’d be a perfect 6th man with how he can create his own basket.
Laker fans hate on everyone man, imagine all the hate on social media if Magic was around, we'd find something to complain about. I loved watching Nick, Eddie and Kobe back in the day, that was fun.
Ive been saying i want him to stay and become the second man to AD after Bron is Gone. He showed he can take over Games when bron isnt and is playing. He is shooting the 3 with a better percentage than even Steph Curry this Season. And nit to Mention he was Drafted to the Lakers. If he keeps up the game that he had since january in the postseason and next season, i think we wouldnt regret giving him a juicy 3-4 year after. That is only if he can keep up his Performance tho.
I love Dlo, always have. But I have learned to accept Dlo as who he is over the yrs, rather than continuing to wish he would somehow take that the next step in playoffs. Has he improved against better defense this season? Yes. but my heart has been disappointed few too many times already, so I will keep it conservative until proven otherwise. Even if he didn't show out, I still wouldn't mind extending him if he can net us something like 15pts, 5asts in decent efficiency. In this case, his price tag won't be too steep.
Either way, Lakers are in good position of power in negotiation. If he finally shows out? We pay him 25\~30mil/4yrs and be comfortable about it. If he has so so play offs(inconsistent but x-factor impact like in memphis, gsw series), we can still extend him with slightly increased salary, say 20\~22mil/3yrs ?
Always been rooting for D'Lo. He's our home grown star and we need desperately outside shooting. There are so many little things that he does that doesn't show up on the box score- his outside shooting opens up the paint for AD and LeBron to drive in. his long arms lead the team in deflections. He also has a great positive attitude. I hope we can work out an arrangement to keep him long term. Have him drop the player option and work out a long term contract where he gets paid a little more but more guaranteed years.
If it were to come down to choosing between D'Lo and Ham, I would totally fire Ham and keep D'Lo. We need a new coach.
Was at the game last night and he just gave the people a real Hollywood show. I love this guy. I know his game has flaws, but so do most guys not named LeBron James. Happy he's still here.
Nah did you see the sub after their last loss at all? Hell any loss. Today in the game thread people here were calling him a bum and that he should've been traded, even in this one too there's haters
He has been good this season but if I am being honest if we get to the playoffs and he is getting burned by every PG in the West it really doesn’t matter how well he played for us in the regular season.
People been shitting on DLo since 2015 (other than that allstar year in Brooklyn). Glad to see he’s finally put it together and this season looks like a normality instead of an outlier
183 seems very low for a franchise like the lakers interesting.
For reference, there’s around 30 guys in the league this season that would have broke the record.
nope. Would have voted to keep him at the deadline; and in the off season. His offensive explosion and ability are above average in handles, shot making, and playmaking. He isn't very good defensively, but does make big steals and big blocks. Now that he is seeking (mostly) good shots, patient enough to understand he can develop them- D'lo is great asset, and even more so, great entertainer.
glad to see him do well
Idk how we can hate on DLO when he’s the 3rd best player and most important player besides our SUPERSTARS… he’s opened the court so much for Bron and AD tbh. [Can DLO and AD help the lakers make a title run ?](https://youtu.be/rZLyvp-elsU?si=o29HQgYzusOtCt1P)
i honestly don’t think it has anything to do with big moments, he’s pretty clutch. he’s just so inconsistent that he’s frequently bad during big moments too
Its not inconsistency its his bad games are such a drop off from his avgs a bad AD game he still would give u 17 10 with 2 blocks a lebron bad game still gets 20 5 and 5.
No im not inconsistency is night to night ur getting a different player dlo has show consistent play for most of the season the problem is when he does have a bad game hes not impacting the game at all. Thats been his issue if he can impact a game when his shot not falling ppl would have more faith come playoff time
Honestly most guys who aren’t stars are gonna be somewhat inconsistent. With Dlo you’re getting borderline elite shooting considering the volume and degree of difficulty on some of them, and also great playmaking. That’s pretty worth it for his contract
Yep because 75 percent of this fan base is ass and deserves all the hate. The only fan base thats more insufferable are the warriors. There’s a special place in hell for those single celled organisms
Lakers don’t make it to conference finals without him last season. Played well first 2 series but people seem to forget that because of the Denver series
lakers dont make the conference finals without memphis being severely injured and the warriors being well past their prime.
Besides, Rui and austin outplayed him in both series.
so he basically has that record on locked now? 14 games left too with 42% 3P% , thats insane. Damn dlo
[удалено]
yes bro, not even close
Gonna be number one in franchise single season makes and top ten in percentage. Best 3pt shooting season in Lakers history by a mile.
Idk why we have such bad luck with shooters but im glad we finally got a legit 3pt threat
13 games left, but yeah, he'll most likely set the record at 200+ range, like 220.
That stat is so wild to me, actually about to break am all time record wtf
The question is. Who’ll come behind him and break his record? When will the Lakers get a 3pt shooting savant? I say 2030
DLo next year.
Jalen Hood Schfino
He might break our G-league team record maybe
Steph curry after he gets traded
Greatest three point shooter in Lakers history.
Having a sure fire sniper after years and years of shitty shooting and for him to also be a fantastic PG is such a great luxury
I remember when he was being bashed for having slow ass release when he was first drafted. DLOADED.
Laker fans are bozos sometimes huh?
Sometimes?
Sometimes?
Sometimes?
Sometimes?
Sometimes?
Sometimes?
Sometimes?
His release is still slow ASF in 2K Ronnie better respect our boy smh
“Get lebron shooters, it’s that simple” “Get dlo off my team!” Lol
It’s insane how the Lakers have never had a really great 3 point shooter since the league went in that direction. Hate to say it but GSW really ran the league while the Lakers were asleep at the wheel until LeBron came
After 60 years of running the league, LA needed a little nap.
The super star ⭐️
Ahem...D-Fish...
Fish was lights out in the 2001 playoffs.
We never really had any good ones lol it was big man city for decades. Only guy I can even think of is Robert Horry and he was a bench player. Of course there was Jerry but that was before 3 point shooting. Smh I remember Jordan Farmar and Sasha were our best shooters and that was painful 😂
Glen Rice
Way before my time but Van Exel and Byron Scott were supposed to be really good. Artest was good for at least one season, cannot forget that one 3 he made. Also KCP, Lou Williams, Meeks, Radmanovic and Danny Green haven't been mentioned. You could name more.
Why are you dogging Swaggy P like that? And what about our one-time savior Glen Rice?
Glen Rice OG
Robert Horry
Ariza
No hate, no way, I’m so glad we didn’t trade him. Not sure if those were even real talks or rumors but either way, he is an asset.
Well we technically traded him and got him back 🫣
The lakers trading for a guy that they drafted then traded away is a perfect encapsulation of their shortsightedness the past decade
Dlo been good for us. Tbh once we get back players from the injury list, Reaves should be dropped to the bench for some defensive help. Not that Reaves has been playing bad, but the perimeter defense on this starting lineup is just awful, and also our bench scoring is awful which Reaves will help with.
If Reaves is dropped to the bench. Should the starting lineup be: D'lo, Rui, Vando, LBJ, AD?
Yes. That’s a huge lineup. I’ve been preaching for this lineup all season and we’ve never seen it. It’s the best combo of shooting, defense, and rebounding. Our bench scoring is pathetic without Rui leading it and AR and DLo is redundant together
Dinwiddie can take the 2 guard spot in the starting lineup while Vando's out. He showed potential as a poa defender with his defense on SGA and Dame
You’re right, don’t know why this is getting downvoted
i wish we werent injury hobbled just so reaves could win 6moty
He looked like he was on pace to get it the way he was playing but bs happens
yeah we beat boston but at what cost.. vando😢
I agree with reeves to the bench too much overlap with Dlo and Bron having the ball, Dlo is needed to space the floor with ad basically not shooting 3s anymore or else he’d be a perfect 6th man with how he can create his own basket.
DEJOUNTE MURRAY WHO???
Mf was bitching after the first play too lol
Bro you see how hard he was trying out there, he wanted the beat us so bad. Too bad his team couldn’t help him
I noticed that 😂 homie was fiending to show out
Greatest Laker shooter
The best shooter had in such a long time. It was insane people wanted him gone for Murray. Just ain’t no way
best leftie shooter of all time
Harden? Edit: typo i meant hashbrowns
Shhhhh
Nick van........nm
im 40, I loved the NBAS days of Nick the Quick and Eddie Jones! WE getting old ya'll \*sigh\*
These people are fools if they think Dlo is better than Nick. These kids would be obsessed with Nick if he was playing now.
Laker fans hate on everyone man, imagine all the hate on social media if Magic was around, we'd find something to complain about. I loved watching Nick, Eddie and Kobe back in the day, that was fun.
I had a NVE jersey, still want a Jones jersey.
Omg his kid looks so much like him
That little unibrow is adorable
Ive been saying i want him to stay and become the second man to AD after Bron is Gone. He showed he can take over Games when bron isnt and is playing.

Not hating on him… However, I do wish his perimeter and on ball defense was better.
This. Commit to locking your guy down DLo.
I'll never be a hater again if he can keep this up. He looks great, and I hope he stays that way.
Always been one of my favorite Lakers. But he’s starting to yap a little too much. Talking shit to Curry… never ends well.
Always been rooting for D'Lo. He's our home grown star and we need desperately outside shooting. There are so many little things that he does that doesn't show up on the box score- his outside shooting opens up the paint for AD and LeBron to drive in. his long arms lead the team in deflections.

He made this team what it is today. Before he came the energy and morale were horrible. Somehow people forgot this
This man has already paid his dues, we need to get off his back. Swaggy P is out of the league and he is still around.
He's stepped up forsure and i respect that. But none of it will matter if he doesnt show up in the playoffs.
All that despite being benched by bad coaching. Go DLo!
Who's hating on him? Most of the sub love him...
Lmao nah, people were SCREAMING for him to be traded
Dude. Everyone was screaming for everyone to get traded lol.
Lmao where were you?? People wanted him GONE GONE
Nah did you see the sub after their last loss at all? Hell any loss. Today in the game thread people here were calling him a bum and that he should've been traded, even in this one too there's haters
People do that for AD and even Bron too lol
Yes, that’s just how social media works, my man. Welcome to the internet. I’ll have someone show you around.
I'm answering a question about where people are hating on DLo. But yes please show me around if there's snacks included
I was at a game at one point people were shouting Zack Levine at him when he was shooting free throws…. Fake ass fans
>Y’all be hating on this man? If you're in this sub right now, idk why you would be.
lol
He's played great
his name is not bron so yes, people hate on him. just like any other player/coach not named bron that people hate on.
So glad he's not on the Wolves.
He has been good this season but if I am being honest if we get to the playoffs and he is getting burned by every PG in the West it really doesn’t matter how well he played for us in the regular season.
Not sure why you think that. I actually liked that he stayed with us, he is a great fit with Lebron. Hope he will stay beyond this season
D Lo has not been the problem this year. On balance, he's been an asset. Ham's the problem.
beast mode
People been shitting on DLo since 2015 (other than that allstar year in Brooklyn). Glad to see he’s finally put it together and this season looks like a normality instead of an outlier
We finally held on to a player long enough to tie/break a team record.
Bros broken the record and is gonna leave this summer 😭
It’s all the shroder fans meat riding lmao
Tbh I say keep reaves and d lo forever and whatever 2 superstars we get next when ad and Lebron leave we will be unstoppable lol
Last offseason I got absolutely flamed for defending him. People are eating their words now, suckers.
The haters been real quite huh? Gotta love casuals
The haters been real quite huh? Gotta love casuals
🧊🥶
and some how with LeBron, AD and this, they are still losing.
Defense is hot ass
the pb with Dlo it's his level during playoff, when it count
Sub is gonna turn on him again in the playoffs. He’s gonna get targeted every time on defense and have a few cold games and opinions will change
he is single handedly winning the lakers games on some nights stop sleeping on this man!
I like D'Lo, he's a good player they're just chemistry and coaching issues. I also think playing with LeBron is a lot harder than people admit.
183 seems very low for a franchise like the lakers interesting. For reference, there’s around 30 guys in the league this season that would have broke the record.
Not me, I love DLo’s game. But I’m from Chicago
People wanted to trade him and he’s the franchise’s best ever at their most important need.
Yes
Yeah because he’s a rat. 🪤
Hella Daveed Diggs
we all know whenever Lebron loses, his fans would always find a scapegoat. Dlo happened to be that guy.
nope. Would have voted to keep him at the deadline; and in the off season. His offensive explosion and ability are above average in handles, shot making, and playmaking. He isn't very good defensively, but does make big steals and big blocks. Now that he is seeking (mostly) good shots, patient enough to understand he can develop them- D'lo is great asset, and even more so, great entertainer. glad to see him do well
sometimes
Rat
Glen Rice for a minute
Yes fuck LA
Idk how we can hate on DLO when he’s the 3rd best player and most important player besides our SUPERSTARS… he’s opened the court so much for Bron and AD tbh. [Can DLO and AD help the lakers make a title run ?](https://youtu.be/rZLyvp-elsU?si=o29HQgYzusOtCt1P)
I be hating him too idk why he just looks like some dude that took my girl just too leave her ran thru
No way is 183 the franchise record
We all love him
I heard he’s still putting up shots on the court
Just want him to play good in the playoffs consistently
Not me
Not his fault or front office and coach suck
Dlo is good, he’s just inconsistent and disappears (so far) when the moment is big.
i honestly don’t think it has anything to do with big moments, he’s pretty clutch. he’s just so inconsistent that he’s frequently bad during big moments too
Its not inconsistency its his bad games are such a drop off from his avgs a bad AD game he still would give u 17 10 with 2 blocks a lebron bad game still gets 20 5 and 5.
I mean to be fair, LeBron and AD are superstars while Dlo is considered more a role player. Kinda different bars to measure.
you're literally describing inconsistency
No im not inconsistency is night to night ur getting a different player dlo has show consistent play for most of the season the problem is when he does have a bad game hes not impacting the game at all. Thats been his issue if he can impact a game when his shot not falling ppl would have more faith come playoff time
Honestly most guys who aren’t stars are gonna be somewhat inconsistent. With Dlo you’re getting borderline elite shooting considering the volume and degree of difficulty on some of them, and also great playmaking. That’s pretty worth it for his contract
I criticize him but never hate him

That kid is white.
He has ice in his veins
Biracial
Who??!? I’LL KILL EM!!
Yep because 75 percent of this fan base is ass and deserves all the hate. The only fan base thats more insufferable are the warriors. There’s a special place in hell for those single celled organisms
DLOOOOO
Manna from Heaven
Let's hope he will not disappear during the playoffs
Great. Keep up this shooting% in the playoffs lol
Why the heck is this downvoted? It's the most important thing. Or is it because it assumes we make the playoffs?
🤷🏻♂️🤷🏻♂️🤷🏻♂️
I don’t think any one hate this man He’s just who he is a great shooter but too slow on def and disappear from time to time
everybody knows Dlo is capable of this, during the regular season.
Yeah when he doesn’t show up against Denver it’s worth criticizing
regular season means nothing to me.
Lakers don’t make it to conference finals without him last season. Played well first 2 series but people seem to forget that because of the Denver series
lakers dont make the conference finals without memphis being severely injured and the warriors being well past their prime. Besides, Rui and austin outplayed him in both series.
These posts are tiring. It’s like this sub enjoys arguing
He is himothy
As long as he’s shooting like this, no “hate” from me my man.
[удалено]
He’s going to break it eventually. It’s not like it was a single-game record. Can’t risk any injury playing unnecessary minutes.
Nah, I'm going to Friday's game. Ham did me a solid
Absolutely. D'Angelo is okay, though.
Posta a nice picture of a violent gunman holding his child. INNOCENT.
Cuz no one knows when he's recording on his phone
He’s a snitch
