JWF is on a 2-way contract. It's possible he will not play one minute.

Currently he would be 5th string PG behind Conley, Exum, NWG, and Mudiay.

Or maybe 4th string if Exum plays more at SG.

Where did you get the idea that JWF will split backup PG minutes with Exum?

Just putting the PG depth

Well Conley isnt a bench player and Mudiay will be SG. Cuz they have none

Regardless of what position you see others playing, you can't count a 2-way

Northwest Cougar

Why Quinn Cook & Damion Lee were 2 way dudes. Alex Caruso & Jonathan Williams

Could happen eventually. But if you're listing the depth you would list the

Clippers by a long shot

If those truly are the benches then I agree 100%

kimdaddy35

7/18/19 11:56am

Starting for the Lakers should be Bradley, Green, James, Davis, McGee

TBabyCougs

7/18/19 12:09pm

Yikes, Avery Bradley and Javale McGee in your starting lineup is just bad

kimdaddy35

7/18/19 12:25pm

Yeah Vogel shot that down . . . Avery Bradley is good. Javale put up 12 & 7 and

TBabyCougs

7/18/19 12:31pm

Avery Bradley is so good he is on his 5th team in just over 2 years

kimdaddy35

7/18/19 3:44pm

Haha your basketball takes are so good. First, Ed Davis is better than Boogie

TBabyCougs

7/18/19 4:52pm

Not a statement on Rubio, but he’s clearly better than Bradley. Bradley sucks

I will say it again as it is tough for you to understand, GMs pay the people

Benches only matter in regular season. Everyone plays an 8-man rotation in the Playoffs.

scootsy

7/18/19 11:38am

Clippers still probably have 3 of the top 5 bench guys, including 1 and 2

PHXSUNS31

7/18/19 11:43am

If boogie and Kuzma are coming off of the Lakers bench, they have 1 and 2.

scootsy

7/18/19 11:46am

I would say Boogie is 1, Lou Williams is 2, Kuzma 3, Harrell 4, Harkless 5

TBabyCougs

7/18/19 11:48am

Harkless??? Are you kidding? Ha, I'd put three Jazz bench players before him.

scootsy

7/18/19 11:58am

Who Jeff Green? Ed Davis? Royce O'Neal is pretty much the same dude, but not

TBabyCougs

7/18/19 12:11pm

Yes, Ed Davis, Royce O'Neale, and a healthy Exum or Joe Ingles if he's coming off the bench.

scootsy

7/18/19 12:18pm

If Ingles comes off the bench yes. But no all the others . . . Oneal is the

TBabyCougs

7/18/19 12:27pm

I just compared Exum's 18-19 per 36 to Harlkess' 18-19 per 36 and Exum beats him in almost every metric.

scootsy

7/18/19 12:40pm

Boogie is #1? That one has me rolling.

"Boogie is not a good basketball player" - not going to bother talking to someone making delusional statements like this

He put up 16 8 4 . . . I'd take that from my back up center

TBabyCougs

7/18/19 12:12pm

Did you even read that article? All it says is that he isn't worth what he is wanting, not that he's a bad player.

scootsy

7/18/19 12:12pm

I've read the article, I've read why no one wanted him and he got

kimdaddy35

7/18/19 12:23pm

Oh I forgot about Javale Mcgee, The Lakers paid him more than Boogie

kimdaddy35

7/18/19 12:27pm

You're trying to argue that Ed Davis is a better basketball player than Boogie?

TBabyCougs

7/18/19 12:32pm

No I'm not arguing anything, I'm flat out telling you that is what the NBA

kimdaddy35

7/18/19 3:39pm

Lol, no. Lou Williams has been the best bench player in the league for awhile

PHXSUNS31

7/18/19 12:24pm

Lou is very good

kimdaddy35

7/18/19 12:30pm

I get that. But they will still play in the playoffs

TBabyCougs

7/18/19 11:44am

Guys 6-8 make a huge difference. 9 and 10 don't at all in the playoffs

kimdaddy35

7/18/19 11:57am

clips, anytime lou williams is coming off the bench for ya its a good thing

I wasnt saying which one would play by the order, just listing the depth

TBabyCougs

7/18/19 11:45am

And Ingles may move and become the first one off the bench.

Cougar TD

7/18/19 11:47am

Then who starts at 3? Bogdanovic and play Jeff Green at 4?

TBabyCougs

7/18/19 11:48am

I've heard rumors of Bogdanovic and Royce as the starters at the 3-4

Cougz19

7/18/19 11:50am

This is what I've seen. But it all depends on matchups and development. The Jazz

Cougar TD

7/18/19 11:51am

That wouldnt be a bad idea

TBabyCougs

7/18/19 11:54am

Why?

Cougar TD

7/18/19 12:16pm

I said it was a good idea

TBabyCougs

7/18/19 12:19pm

Ingles may start on the bench but let's be honest, he'll play the most minutes

ManicBlue

7/18/19 11:54am

True... And it's more important who is finishing the game

Cougar TD

7/18/19 12:16pm

Wouldn't you say the same of Lou Williams? I think they should try to limit

cougaman

7/18/19 12:27pm

Niang is typically a 4, not 2-4 will really matter much next year.

Cougz19

The Denver Nuggets

Highly possible Jingles is 6th man- that would change the calculus
