Excellent post, @YoungThundercat I can't agree more, and I have Okafor at #1. Also prefer Stanley Johnson over Winslow, but I'm just a little...
Agreed. His injury history is seriously overblown. He's played 77 and 75 games in the past two years. Last season, he averaged 26pts and 12.5reb,...
@lakerfan2 I like Hezonja a lot too. The concern I have with drafting Russell/Mudiay is that Clarkson is a tweener. Drafting Russell will mean...
Very good points as usual, but I think his scoring will go back to 20+pts. He was playing with 2 very ball-dominant players in Lebron and Kyrie....
Are you guys for real? If Kevin Love, a 26 year-old franchise player that can average 25/12, is willing to come here, you don't turn him down for...
^ more like a grapefruit
The problem with that is that most of those younger players are restricted. So while we wait a week for teams to match offer sheets, the UFAs may...
Yeah, I'm just thinking Clarkson/Russell as a slasher/shooter will be a more balanced backcourt than Clarkson/Mudiay as a slasher/slasher. Not...
Hey put me on there too:rock:
I don't those ex-Lakers are comparable because Carroll had almost identical stats last year, suggesting gradual and honest improvement, ie not a...
@Savory Griddles Why does Carroll being a late bloomer make you nervous? Some players peak early, some late. Steve Nash, Tiago Splitter, Ben...
I'm with @therealdeal Butler/Kawhi are pipe. They are borderline franchise-type players. They will get max contracts from their respectable...
:rofl:
Imagine if we got both Rondo and DeAndre. What is the plural form of hack-a-shaq?
Yeah, too bad they see value in Rondo's name and not his game. We could get a much better player for $3-5 million.
Good points. And I actually prefer the two that are more likely to leave; Love and Monroe. Their age and game fit our team needs IMO.
I agree, except 10-12 would imply retardation in our front office. Why do you think they are still going after him though? He's clearly not a...
I get the Ding article. It is well-written. I'm just trying to get the bottom of the Laker's persistance regarding Rondo. Every other team...
Yeah I get that, but that will only increase pity from other teams. Signing Rondo will only make us look desperate.
Why does it seem like the Lakers are under pressure to sign Rondo? I don't get it. I think the notion of "failing to sign a big-name would be...
