    I bet if that happens, it'll still generate less hate than AD to us.....thats how much everyone around the league hates us

    I'm not sure why we are such a big deal at this point; sadly, we have not been relevant for a while now.

    it hasn't happened but show me another executive that was fined for saying a player on another team will win a chip for their current team? And I'm not sure what your response means, the league can't block AD from becoming a FA but they can block him from signing here if tampering is proven. BTW this isn't to say tampering is coming, I'm just noting that it'll make it worse if AD comes out and says Lakers or nothing, that why I'm bringing up that possibility of tampering since Pelicans are already on that thought process

    No they can't...show ne in recent years where they have. Go ahead...I'll wait...

    Meanwhile Minny was proven guilty with Joe Smith, but even with all the punishments handed down, dude was never denied to sign with the Wolves again.

    There was obvious tampering with Player's president, Cp3...yet the Rox trade was not vetoed.

    Dray tampered with KD before the summer that they got him...was KD kept away from the dubs?

    There is no precedence by Silver in denying a free agent to sign with the team if his choice.

    We can be made an example of via fines...sure. But denying AD to outright sign with us in 2020??? Slow your roll...

    I wouldn't put it past the NBA to set a precedent and screw us once more. All these little, petty owners are doing things far worse but it's ok, as long, as the Lakers name don't come up.

    you keep asking for evidence of prior incidence of this but yet you can't show me either of another time where a GM or President got fined like Magic did with his Giannis comments....its the Lakers, league has created "anti-lakers" rules with things like this super max designations. I'm not saying it'll definetly happen but the league CAN apply that block if they have sufficient evidence.

    So you're worried about a fine then???

    Why don't you go find something where any credible media head has mentioned AD would be denied free agency to LA in 2020 or that a potential trade would be voided?

    If tampering will result in a fine...yeah, I'm fine with that.

    here is an article in regards to possible punishment inregards to Paula last yr.....https://www.indystar.com/story/spor...ating-lakers-tampering-paul-george/584084001/
    its a POSSIBLE outcome, not a gurantee and all I'm saying is if AD directly comes out and says Lakers or bust in ADDITION to league finding any type of legit evidence to prove their case, the league could easily go that route, not to mention Magic being a 2x offender already. If you're asking me for this blocking of AD, then find me another incidence like how Magic got fined for Giannis comments.....one request for another.

    Funny how these dynamics often play out. Trading a superstar more times than not does not return equal value, at least in the short term.

    Thats gotta be collusion right?

    I'd add this to the pile of s*** we can bring up if the league decides to f*** us.

    Seriously, what's with all these other teams b****ing about us. Don't go blaming us when you can't run your own team properly. You can't build a team good enough to keep your best player around. You have more than 5 years to figure it out but can't and when they want to leave you cry foul? f*** off.

    Unless Rich Paul has something working in the background that no one knows about, this was a terrible decision to come out with this demand. Popovich and all these mother f***ing pieces of s*** are gonna do all they can to stop this. Seriously, someone needs to hit back at that crater faced piece if s*** and his mouth. So f***ing tired of all these a******* in our business. f*** em all.

    lol. if they're trash, you'd have to wonder what they think of their current team or they expect to get in place?

    tatum? since disappeared into his sophmore slump.

    porzingis? he's been less healthy than AD and the Knicks aren't going to leverage their future for a rental.

    lowry/siakam/anunoby? an aging guard and some breakout role players?

    thon maker/brogdon? mediocre talent.

    none of these packages offer the value that Kuz brings let alone what Zu and Lonzo do at their age. none of those names except porzingis are game changers the way any of our youth can. pelican fans are just salty about their team name.

    And Im the one labeled as a conspiracy theorist around here haha. Hey, orange face, get your a** in here, so that you can get a load of this guy...

    If y'all realist, I'll gladly reside in fantasyland.

    The article you posted stated this:
    A tampering charge stuck and Rob was fined 500k.

    So out of all the trade requests in this league, what makes AD's so unique where the league needs to drop the "anti-Laker hammer"?

    Bron/Paul been doing this from Miami (superteam part1) to going back to Cleveland (superteam part2)...did the league get in the way? Did they prevent Gasol from being traded here when we used psuedo-retired McKie's contract to get it done?

    But keep conspiring against us...you do you...

    Wow, Demps, Pop, the Spurs, the Pacers, and the entire NBA can f*** off with their colluding against us. Funny enough my current most hated NBA franchise has actually been our best trade partner in recent times in Houston. I don’t understand why the NBA is cool with the Warriors winning 4 titles in 5 years and steamrolling everyone stockpiling stars, yet we aren’t allowed to attempt to trade for one without them banding together to stop us.

    so all you got in your argument is because it hasn't happened, it wont happen? Just like how no other President has EVER been fined the way Magic has right? give it a brake dude, I am just pointing out a possbility and all you got is its not possible because its never happened LOL...the Mia stuff, nobody cried to league like they are now with LA and really not sure what the Gasol/Mckie transaction has to do with tampering? That was more of a way of playing around with the CBA loop holes.
