    No, he's the next player in the long line of "Anything To Get Rid Of ____" chain of players and coaches over the last however many years.

    Alright now I'm absolutely convinced this trade was based on the Rising Stars game. Hell of an owner. :D

    Not to sound racist or offend other indians here but in general indians with wealth like Vivek do not value others opinion, they always see themselves as better than others and what they do or say is always the right thing

    Woj says on air that the Cousins deal came down to us and the Pels; Sac went with the Pels in the end.

    Well it's his team. The perks of being the owner. I liked Hield a lot myself entering the draft. I mean, I didn't think he had Steph Curry potential - I reserve such ludicrous comparisons for Lonzo Ball if/when he becomes a Laker - but I can get the infatuation.

    When I have a net worth of $700 million and buy a team, I'd probably make dumb decisions with my heart too.

    Prefacing a racist comment with "not to sound racist" doesn't make it any less racist.

    I mean, at least we were in the mix, I think that says something when we had an opportunity to get an all-star with assets we have gathered the last few years. We wouldn't have even been in the conversation a few seasons ago.

    The perks of sucking and stockpiling young talent via the draft.

    Listening to Ireland right now: everybody was available in the potential Cousins deal EXCEPT INGRAM.

    A person in the Lakers FO told Ireland: paraphrasing, "I wouldn't touch Cousins. He has issues you can't fix."

    Apparently, the person wasn't high-up but has a voice in the room according to Ireland.
