i don't have an issue with dlo trade...im just countering Vash statements that they did right by mintz clients....randle doesnt ask us to waive his bird rights if we treated him well, pg may have been steered towards staying with okc n not giving mgmt a meeting couldve possibly be a backlash for how they treated dlo post trade with those nasty comments by magic
Just stop with the mistreatment bulls***...I've said my piece on it ad nauseum and y'all keep shielding Mintz from any blame. I'm using the Nets/DLo example cause fans keep s***ting on our cap plan (even after we bagged Bron) while fans like you, applaud other teams like the cLips/Nets for doing the same goddamn thing. Y'all can remain cynical AF...but come up with new ways of doing it. Tired of doing the same cyclical procedure with y'all.
if u dont think getting benched for an inferior player isnt mistreatment then what more can any one say? you cant honestly think we gave randle any warm/fuzzy feeling that he was wanted here last yr can you?
What can I expect with the league going soft...of course the fans will follow. Mistreatment? So I guess the Pels doing the same goddamn thing with him backing up Niko, him getting less money there than here and Nop sauces stating that his name is being floated with a 1st to get AD some "real" help at the deadline ain't mistreatment. Mistreatment...gtfoh with that noise bro.
niko has an argument for being ahead of randle with his 3pt shot...what was nance positives over Randle? and how bout those back handed comments from magic post dlo trade, was that necessary?
Nance killed Jules in defensive impact...look that s*** up bro Nance was also coachable...something Jules admitted that he wasnt. In terms of back handed comments... One of the greatest coaches ever talked s*** on Kob...damn near made bookS off that s***...they still cool, right? Another coaching great said this about one of his players... They hugged that s*** out after they saw each other the next time. Was it necessary? Who gives a f***. #Lakers(Cotton)Ball Btw: mistreatment of Jules would be ignoring his request and locking him up away from unrestricted free agency, cause you know, he was a f***ing restricted free agent. But we did him super duper dirty by allowing him free passage, right? Da f*** is wrong with you guys?!?
Not an excuse, just saying that he likely doesn't turn into an all star level talent if he stayed on the team. Who is the last young player we developed into an all-star? Kobe. And we can all agree the franchise was an irrelevant factor in that outcome.
True, but you can't discount a low pressure environment and a change of scenery, along with playing for a guy who's renowned around the league for player development specifically, as factors that led into what we're seeing now. Also, regarding the work ethic, there were numerous reports about how our coaching staff had to demand the young guys needed to come in early for workouts because Russell would show up right before the start of practice and not put in extra work. And don't forget this gem:
This is obviously up to ones interpretation but dont pretend magic did no wrong with randle n dlo when it comes to how mintz dealt with us ,hes a snake too but magic gave him enough reason not to do us any favors
Was DLo sent to Yemen...or a place/market where he can thrive and still live that life? Interpret this: Magic granted Mintz/Jules unrestricted free agency, when they didn't have to....cause he was a RESTRICTED free agent. My interpretation is that you got no f***ing idea what mistreatment and restricted are. #StayBawl'n
please thats a joke of a take....like asking a girl for a date and she turns you down and you respond with "well I didn't want to date you anyways" lol....classic
Agreed. Calling Paul George "Paula" and pretending we don't want him since he doesn't want us is dumb. Dude is playing like an MVP this season. It's exactly like asking a girl out and when she rejects you, you turn your nose up and pretend you're too good for her. Bulls***. We needed PG and we couldn't get an interview, probably because of the Pelinka/Mintz rivalry. Acting like a douche on Jersey Shore who gets rejected and is like, "Pft, dumb b****. I was doing you a favor by even thinking about you." is lame.
