    Not true….he is a scrub. Career average of 7 ppg. Would rather have Okogie. I said it at the time of the signing that it was an awful move. As much as people rag on the horrible year Cam is having, DFS averages 2 full points less than Cam on almost double the minutes. We got fleeced as Our Stone still sucks at transactions.

    He is not bad but he is also not some kind of all around player some claim he was. He is a good dunker tho.

    He is a specialist defender with improved shooting, he knows his role and does not deviate, not like Hardaway junior at least who is streakier but can win you games by himself and his hot hand.

    All in all he is neither Cam Johnson nor Mikal Bridges nor OG Anunoby.

    Damn I never thought of it that way. Are you saying more points is better than less points? That's deep bro.

    Probably face Triple H made when he first saw John Cena and committed to ruin his career

    Lakers didn’t bother even negotiating with him months after trading for him and Stone said hmmm let’s throw him the full MLE.

    I’m certainly reaching the end of my patience. I said I’d give him till the end of Feb but if there’s a good offer at the deadline I might prematurely hit the eject button at this point. I’m just tired of old injured guys on the team. I would never have supported signing him if I understood how serious the injury was. He’s freaking almost 33 for God’s sake. What was our front office thinking? Someone dropped the ball on this.

    Even broken Macus Smart is better than this trash DFS.

    The Lakers are really lucky.

    The Lakers got the best version of Finney and they discovered his injury issues....

    You can say Fakers made out like kings.

    DFS overthinked himself trying to recover. Just play with less burden man and hopefully you can go back to your old mavericks/laker-version self.
