    kyrie isn't very sharp and clearly has some mental health issues, but he can ball when he's healthy.

    I suppose scientific facts are controlled media opinions or something.

    I can't believe that people still believe space is real.

    Yeah, you just proved my point.
    I’m sure you believe everything your government has fed you. They have never have lied to the American public about anything. Neither has big Pharma.
    Sad.
    Since you follow the science, you haven’t worn a mask these past two years?

    All right folks, as mentioned before here let's leave politics and pandemics out of our Lakers discussion.

    Playing in a big city isn't the sell it was before social media and league pass blew up. That said, this shows that it still matters to someone like Spider Mitchell. He's not happy in a small market. Coming to LA would at least launch him into top 15.

    AD not in there because he was in street clothes and bigs in general aren't as popular (only 3 in top 15 of jersey sales).

    Also, just playing in LA isn't enough. No mention of Clippers on either list. That's a beautiful sight.

    Wait, the 2nd best selling jersey was Harden's?!?!? Who is buying a Harden jersey, let alone wearing it in public?

    They're getting it Harden sized and using it as a summer comforter on their California king bed.

    Buha with The Athletic throws out some ideas with our mid level

    Yes to Covington, if you can get him for that.

    I'm not giving the full mid to Batum or Tucker, if they'd split it...I could be talked into that.

    I like Porter, depending on cost.

    Warren is enticing and risky. If we're hesitant about GH because of injuries, we're not going after Warren.

    Brown is too small. We tried signing all 6-4 players and playing them 2-3 positions up. It failed.

    Iggy. No. Ariza 2.0. Although I wish we signed him instead of Ariza last summer, he can at least make it onto the court.

    TJ is the best player on the list and it’s a big difference to Hayward. Hayward is 3 years at 30+ million. TJ would be one year at 5-6 million.

    actually don't like buha's list. svtzr has made a good case for warren, and i can get on board there. i'd actually love bruce brown, but i don't see why the nets let him walk when they can (and will) pay. he's caruso-ish, though not quite caruso.

    we need to find the next bruce brown type with our vet mins. that's the goal.

    i also think he's wrong about the kinds of offers monk will field, but we'll see. at the prices he's suggesting, we're better off without monk, tbh. i loved him last year, but his limitations remain and don't appear to be going too far.

    size and speed. i know folks thought we missed on otto porter, but he wouldn't have solved anything for us, imo.
