LeBron took it on himself to address that put an end to that.

Now he is in the right hand Lebron make u shine AR is a lot matured DLO in the form and now Rui is on the another level of his career I’m ready for play off

At least before the Lakers grabbed him, he can be the first, second, or third option on this team any given night, good to see this young boy ball out and enjoy playing for this team ☝🏻

You can saw rui first year is terrible but look it he growing to a big guy who can bucket 😂

Was that English ? You high or what?​@@closegamegun6467

So is Vanderbilt and Anthony reaves 😅

@@population-_-420 Vanderbuilt is great on defense but he's kind of a liability on offense, team will just let him shoot the ball cause he tends to brick it

bro he can't even make easy layups or putbacks at the rim either, he lacks confidence and finishing ability @@bachnguyenviet4289

@@population-_-420 True AR is sometimes overrated tho

Anyone else loves Rui? 😅

​@@paulapana6241 no one hates rui thats for sure

in offensive skillset. He's literally Kawhi Leonard in Laker uniform

To do that he has a LOT of studying to do.

He even has some things LeBron doesn't. Like his face up game. Better wingspan too. LeBron will probably always have an edge in terms of speed and passing though.

Rui is more similar to Kawhi . Kawhi is 6’7 230 with a 7’3 wingspan, Rui is 6’8 230 (probably more), with a 7’2 wingspan, and they both have huge hands. Rui is also an elite 3 level scorer like Kawhi, especially from midrange and 3pts line, they are crazy efficient, same at the freethrow line, and they are both very strong with a strong base so they are great in the post they can play bully ball or just shoot a fadeaway over you, and they are missmatch nightmare, too big and strong for small guards, and too quick and skilled for bigs … So offensively they are very similar, the big difference is on defense, Kawhi is arguably the best perimeter defender ever, but Rui is slow footed, especially when he is backpedaling and he struggle to chase quick players around screens, but he is a better interior defender than Kawhi, he’s a bit taller, stronger and i think he probably jump higher … I never understood why Rui didn’t start over freaking Taurean Prince (Who is a great role player but not a starting level guy), when Rui literally shot 47% from 3 in the Playoffs and proved he was a big game player, clutch and with a lot of versatility, he even guarded Jokic at some point and he did a very good job, and for me it’s just so obvious the offense would be crazy with him, because with him, Bron and AD you have 3 missmatch nightmare, and with D-Lo and Reaves or even Spencer you have 4 elite shooters and a capable 1 (AD), so there aren’t a lot of teams with the personal to guard the Lakers, that’s why we have the number 2 offense since ALL STAR break, around the time they finally put Rui in the starting lineup… Only big teams like Denver, Wolves or Celtics can slow down the Lakers offense when they are engaged imo, i think they would bully OKC, Suns, Warriors, Pacers in a Playoffs serie, and i think they could compete with the best teams like Denver or Celtics if everything goes right, meaning D-Lo keep playing like regular season D-Lo unlike last season, and Lebron keep shooting 41% from 3 like this season, and also if Cam Reddish come back to his In-Season-Tournament form when he was leading the league in steals and deflection .. I think if everything goes right we can win

LBJ actually been working closely with Rui in the off season. He sees it too.

​@Anthonydu01630 lakers biggest problem will be sacramento and denver. AD cannot guard jokic and sabonis 1 on 1. They need someone to bodied jokic and sabonis while AD will be the support defence.

Are you kidding? He shoots every touch he gets..

He's allowed to shoot, Ham just gives him inconsistent minutes. He's often pulled in the 4th because he tends to gets lost on defense

Recently he’s been getting more mins, but before that darvin ham loves to give taurean prince more mins

Yes. Recently he has a lot of chance to shoot than before. But Ham makes Rui stand at the corner. Although I'm understanding how important the role is, I think Rui can play more activity.

@@carlchandra1900 There was a report that Rui wasn't buying into his responsibilities so Ham went ahead with starting Prince over him

Nah Dlo is the 3rd proven option and reaves is the 4th.. Rui is a 5th option who can be a 3 or even a 2nd option any given night though

Nunn😮😮😮

Wizards had Rui, Porzingis, Gafford and KCP all contributing for a winning team but failed all of them and ended up Kuzuma and Poole😂

Chuck don't know alot of things. Him and Shaq are casuals and only know stars and superstars of the game

Rui hoochiemama

them "critics" biased asf

No,he can't😂,but great also.

​@@ThreeBodyLifeMJ is the GOAT

Nobody is the next lebron, but I respect your love for your own 💯 🔥

恥ずかしい

素晴らしい！🏴‍☠️

I thought 🤔💭 the night 🌃 light was on my phone at first. But I think that they adopted that floor model from the leagues play in tournament series by making it their own.

The problem is AD cannot guard jokic. They need someone strong to handle jokic while AD can provide help defence. In 2020 they have dwight and mcgee to stop jokic. They need to bulk up Hayes to do similar role

Why? Shohei is the best baseball player rui is a good basketball player but nowhere near the best give both of them their flowers

@@andrei283 Baseball is more popular than basketball in Japan. That's why Japanese news covers Otani every day. But I also want Hachimura to be covered more. There is no player in Japan who is as active as him in basketball.

@@NaNaMiYa_P I understand I also like rui and would want the news to cover him too but they should both be recognized not just rui but I get what you're sayin.

You still have Chance but rather to catch Warriors just win the Head to Head Game against them and you will have the Same record and maybe Warriors will lose 2 or 3 more Games so Rockets could catch 10 seed

So why are you still here? 😂

Why are you crying?

Okay then don’t watch nba if you hate it
