The Lakers Big 3 attempts were always torn apart by injuries. The Malone and Payton one was derailed by Malone's injury and he never got fully back to form. Prior to Malone going down the Lakers were 20-4 and cruising. The 2012 Lakers were derailed by Nash first getting bulldozed by Isaiah Thomas unnecessarily in the pre-season, and then getting his leg broken in a freak accident by Damian Lillard and then of course Kobe right at the end of the season. If Malone or Nash and by extension Kobe never go down with injury, both those Lakers big threes could have been successful and one of those still made the Finals albeit in a losing effort. So it was more so injuries that derailed them more so than the fits just 'not working'. A TRUE Superteam failure that doesn't have the injury excuse is the 2019 76ers. They had Joel Embiid, Jimmy Butler, Ben Simmons, Tobias Harris, JJ Redick. And they lost to Toronto in a 7 Game Series. And despite Ben Simmons always being a scapegoat of some kind, nobody talked about Embiid's 17 PPG performance on 37% Field Goal Percentage across that entire series. Particularly his 11 point game on 28% Field Goal where he shot the ball 7 times and the 76ers lost by 5.. but Joel escapes criticism for that series. But the 2019 76ers was an actual Superteam fail that had to do with players coming up short more so than injuries.

@romanramirez7847 Жыл бұрын

The 2013 Lakers are a really interesting case, as I do agree that they might have gone farther if they all could have stayed healthy. However, I don’t think Kobe and Dwight never really meshed all that well in their play styles, and as teammates. It’s well known that they had beef that season, and I think that would have been a factor that might have held them back in the playoffs.

Lakers brought in Russ to help take the load off of an aging LeBron and an oft-injured Anthony Davis. Most people knew it wasn’t going to work out from the get-go based on the lack of shooting and perimeter defense. Think it absolutely counts as a failed super team since the Lakers management were too caught up in their own heads going star hunting instead of building a quality roster around Bron and AD. What ur saying is the team should’ve built Russ’ strengths which are transition offense and driving to the rim, two traits which require shooting and defense to build around.

You make it sound like they didn't want to sign Caruso. The management wanted to but since Lebron already insisted on them getting Russ, they didn't have the cap to sign him. As you even said yourself, after getting Russ they couldn't even fill the team properly and it was a miracle they even got a team as strong as they did with vet min.
