    There is no freakin way I can believe he gave the final "okay". No way in hell. That, I won't ever believe unless Pelinka says it live on TV or something.

    Well it was technically Jeanie, who relies on Kurt for basketball advice.

    I mean..that wasn’t really my goal. Personally I can’t stand the guy, but he does work for the FO, so I’ve accepted it, sucks, but nothing we can do when Jeanie values Laker lifers and loyalty to them above all else.

    Okay that's all for tonight folks, I am mentally exhausted. Today was exhilarating. And this will only kick off a fantastic offseason, I'm sure! Hopefully this is the start of something special, and we can finally let go of the last 6 years of negativity as we embark on a new journey to get #17!

    Best Regards,
    Mr. Rambis

    Thanks so much for chillin with us and giving us tidbits throughout the entire process! It’s awesome having an “insider” even if it’s a small things, especially with the biased media out there without legitimate sources.

    Sorry about anyone here that doubted you, most of those posters aren’t truly active members that usually contribute here. Thanks for choosing us as your outlet! Much appreciated!

    Give it up to @Mr. Rambis Lakersball fam!

    Yeah, thanks Mr. Rambis, it was a great ride and I hope you will be active here once the season starts so we can discuss some real basketball for change.

    Not trying to undermine Mr. Rambis, but I'm big on crediting the appropriate source.

    Nationally Woj had it first and beat out Mr. Rambis by 4-5 minutes. But cuffs had everybody beat with small details to the trade, days in advance (ie wanting to keep Kuz). #SomeDude

    Meh I'll buy a jersey after he wins the ship. Honest to god I have a #7 Ramon Sessions shirt that I paid 30 dollars for at the Team LA store after a Laker win. Cocaine is a helluva drug.

    I think it’s the glasses. They worked in the 80’s, but haven’t translated over to the 21st century.

    We just traded our number 2 pick because New Orleans wanted it and BI and Zo have more upside. If all we had was a bunch of Kuzma’s there wouldn’t have been a deal made.

    Edit: Do people really think that if we had 4 Kuzma’s and picks would New Orleans still do the trade? Honest question.

    SI ran a piece on the winners and losers of the trade. Their breakdown of the past 12 months for Boston is beautiful
