It was a shrewd move. Anyone who's been a longtime Lakers fan feels better about this team now than they did a year ago; right?
I'd trade for pg if we dump deng on them lol.....we have been victims for to long of the "he will sign here in fa mantra". Even with magic here I'd still be more comfortable getting pg in a trade over waiting for him via FA
I never had faith in jimbo....him and Mitch only had the "we are the lakers, you would be privileged to play for us" pitch.
Yes, and I like our youth. However, I'm glad Magic is in the mix now, and I'm hoping we can land decent impact pieces. I'm tired of being out of playoff contention February, and my patience is running out.
Has anyone heard a peep out of Jim since he was given the boot? Wonder if his voice is a lot higher or is that only when you're young and have them cut off? funny:
I like it....sign biff then shoot larry a randle/picks offer....hopefully pg tells larry take the deal cause I ain't coming back lol
Oh trust me. I want it all. Magic, Rob and Luke have a job in 4 months. And that is bring in a 20-10 PF. Then a year from now, bring in a our stud SG. All the while KEEPING our young guys. We will need them all to deal with GSW. Depth, talent and stars. All three.
Well, Johnson knows how to charm people... He won't scare the wits out of them with a challenge (nee Bryant to Howard) or leave them befuddled like Kupchak.
Yes but consequently after learning some things I also feel far worse about the team a year ago and really wish we capped Jim/Mitch at the end of last season before they got off their Moz/Deng parting gift for us. I guess we can cut Jeanie some slack considering she really didn't even give Jim the full amount of time he'd asked for. I also think the really good move was Pelinka. Magic is a perfect front though. Those two together will make a killer duo.
If we get PG I wonder how everyone bashing d'angelo for being inconsistent, will react to George being notoriously inconsistent and his >20pt 35% shooting games?
