    the fact that reaves is a valuable piece on this team tells me that its gonna be a waste of time watching the lakers AGAIN next season.

    Austin Reaves told JJ Reddick on his podcast that he thinks about golf in the middle of nba games.
    I don’t think he’s training at all this summer. A month before training camp isn’t enough for Reaves. The best players take a few weeks off at the most after the season, then They’re back in the gym continuing to work on Their games as early as late June.
    It’s what Kobe did, it’s what Lebron, kd, Tatum, Brunson, Edwards, Kyrie, etc do.

      austin aint no star or best player, he is unathletic guard who is mediocre from 3, alright in the PNR, mid off ball, and atrocious defensively. Too much nonsense from lakers channels. Caruso is worlds better than Reaves bc he knew his role and excelled in it. There is way too much "woulda" "coulda" "shoulda" with Austin. Too often Austin is trying to do too much, failing to do it, and then gets exposed on D. Austin's peak is 6MOY people need to accept it. The guy was undrafted for a reason. Payton Pritchard is better than him but barely saw mins on the defending champs in the playoffs, tells u where we are talent wise/roster wise. All bc Rob and co wanna act like he is a star. FREAKIN NONSENSE

Dude will be able to float around continuously play no defense. And they’ll blame dlow or who ever is the other guard. He’ll never get called out! Look at this dude won’t tell the truth excuse after excuse. They could have traded this bum got Murray from ATL and been playing Boston for a chip! But that’s not the focus.

    You can’t make an entire video about this than say it’s not a major concern. It absolutely is a major concern. He is a 16 mil a year player that we need to trade for an upgrade at the position while we can. He is not “him” but we could find him if we trade Reaves. All we should see from him is videos of him working on his 3pt shot not his chip shot. You nailed this video and definitely is a major concern. Seems he got real comfortable when he got paid 🤷🏼‍♂️ Looks like he lost that hunger to be him.

This guy peaked for us two years ago. Honestly, I think if he does get traded, he will be out of the league quick. one more contract; retired by 32.

      Caruso and Reaves have different bodytypes.. it's no that easy to bulk up or getting stronger like this player etc, doesn't work like that. Caruso got stronger due to training and genetics, he had that body type. Reaves can get stronger but probably you wouldn't notice it. Doncic bodytype it's not like Caruso and look at him playing.

    In his last interview with Lakersnation he said that he went straight to play with USA last summer and couldn't get to work his game then he got himself into training camping with lack of rest. He's main goal this season is to get stronger upper body for defense match ups.
    Anyway, Reaves numbers got even higher when Lebron or Dlo wasn't available. Dlo, has a lot the ball in RS as well as AD and LJ. We could easily see him in other scenario scoring nearly 20 ppg, like he did in 2023 PO. He was clutch. He's a great player with a "friendly" contract.

    More lame excuses. With tired legs, Reaves played all 82 games last season, which is uncommon in today's NBA. Plus he had the all-star break. The problem is he's now on the opposing team's scouting reports and he wasn't getting those cheap calls from the refs. You'd better hope that it wasn't tired legs or Lebron in AD are in trouble. You can already see that it's gonna be a long season for Lakers fans.
