    Kobe will be disappointed with some of you, the goal is to win no matter what

    MJ, Kobe, Tiger, Brady stopped at nothing to win. The mentality of fercious winning created the greatest products in sports.

    If some of you out there want to Gaylord Focker your way into a happy 12th place ribbon after a non winning year, well, go ahead. I seek greatest in everything. Within my own things or things I like.

    It demands more and stretches the mind and body. It's science.

    Sure guys but the reality is it ain’t happening every year. Teams do the best they can and only one wins. So your lives are trash the years there’s no Lakers ring?

    This is just the blink of an eye precursor to the real life. Death isn’t the end- it’s a doorway to eternity.

    I don't think it's enough to top what other teams can offer, but I'll help Dalton pack if need be.

    Man when you hear Ayton talk that outside noise got to him. Dude sounds legit pissed and I like it. Angry Ayton. Yall might be against me but give him the extension now before we have another Austin Reaves.

    I like him Luka and Reaves together. A lob threat with his skillset is hard to find.

    I’d like to trade for a Jarace Walker a Isiah Jackson an Aaron Neismith. Im willing to give the 2028 expiring draft pick for a Herbert Jones. Been saying that. Dalton Knect. Whatever they want.

    I also would look at what Brooklyn has over there. We need some more depth.

    id inquire about Pascal.

    what this game told me Luka you can get 40 but the other guys gotta eat. It makes us better. 6 from Lebron is unacceptable.

    Clipper bailout you want some relief. It’s gonna be hard but I’m coming when yall are all f***ed.

    we’ll give you Hachimura Vando Knect Vincent and the 2028 pick give you a pick back.

    I want Harden Bogdanovic and Derrick Jones Jr.


    do we have a deal????

    This trade is all about depth

    let Harden be the 6th man

    give us some bench scoring

    let Derrick Jonee Jr. be that 3 and D forward to start with Luka and Reaves and LeBron gives us the same thing Herbert Jones does.

    and Bogdanovic can be that guard for us off the bench that can shoot that 3 and defend other guards.

    what’s the advantage for them you get a 2028 pick unprotected a good young player in Hachimura and see some relief coming back for your rebuild.

    Knect gives them a young forward who can shoot they can give 35 minutes a game to.

    Dunn
    Knect
    Hachimura
    Kawhi
    Zubac

    Us

    Luka
    Reaves
    Lebron
    Jones Jr.
    Ayton

    Bench
    Harden
    Bogdanovic
    Thiero
    Hayes
    Laravia


    Just gives us some scoring depth to compete with OKC we need legit depth to compete with OKC.

    I know teams don’t want to help us but they need to help themselves.

    same type of Deal going to Sacramento and inquiring about Lavine or Derozan Monk


    We need good legit scoring depth. Some I’m just looking at teams who have that who need help.

    also going to Memphis seeing what they want for KCP


    Particularly these teams are all out of it.

    Portland what do you want for Jrue Holiday???

    I like Michael Porter Jr.

    Chicago Colby White

    that’s all I see so far.

    Minnesota and OKC will be a problem in the playoffs. We gotta get a little more for these young teams.

    good point. Kind of eye opening because it was Phoenix. And without Booker most of the game.

    OKC looks like a machine a well oiled machine. We gotta figure this out.

    Thier legit second unit is a playoff team.
