It’s some cruel irony that the Lakers have seen two separate big men this year flourish in big ways, yet haven’t been able to experience the pair of them excelling next to one another.
In the early stages of the season, it was Anthony Davis who was putting together historic performances before going down with an injury. In his absence, Thomas Bryant has found his footing and has been one of the best players on the team in the last month-plus.
Bryant’s recent strong play has certainly gotten the Lakers themselves thinking about the possibility, whether it’s LeBron having “visions" of a Lakers frontcourt with him, AD and Bryant or Bryant himself.
