Los Angeles Lakers: Magic Johnson’s biggest mistake of all

Lou Williams is a professional scorer and the best shooter in L.A.

Yes, that statement means for both teams. Before anyone starts with the LeBron James stat barrage of 28 points, eight rebounds and seven assists, can you count on him to get those stats late in the game when it matters?

According to the NBA.com/stats report for March 19, 2019, Lou Williams is averaging 20 points a game but in crunch time is where he make his money. He has scored 100 points in 102 clutch minutes. That means under the five-minute mark folks.

I mean Lance Stephenson had a close up look at what the man can do earlier this season in the Staples Center with about two minutes left in the game.

All season long, you’ve heard complaints about the Lakers lack of shooting. Well, they had Lou Williams on the roster and he was playing just as well then as he is now.

He would have worked seamlessly with this roster all while giving Luke Walton the support he deserves to be successful on the Lakers sideline. Plus he would have brought the production to command respect from LeBron James.

Well Lakers fans, there you have it. Magic Johnson and Rob Pelinka have a lot of work to do in this offseason. Most believe that changes should be made if the moves are not successful. For the fan’s sake, I really hope they do.

The only problem is, it took a little while for the Buss/Kupchak mistakes to hurt the Lakers.

It only took Magic Johnson and Rob Pelinka about three hours!
