    I'll be a little upset if we move Russell in this deal. I want George, but I want George with the young guys. Russell next to Ball could be an awesome tandem. If they want Russell, I'll give them Russell/Deng/#28 for George. That might be the only way I accept Russell being included.

    Of course, in the end I'll have Paul George so... I can't be too mad...

    They're not. Ingram will probably be as good as George in three years and Zubac might be the next Marc Gasol.

    Let's have our bodies be ready. Together. Not in a gay way. Just like, physically separate. Not that there's anything wrong with that. You know what I mean.

    Good catch. I was wondering why it didn't pop up on my feed.

    I get this sense too and I find it ridiculous. I can see some GMs not being a fan of his sometimes too casual play/careless turnovers, maybe even some cocky attitude, but the way people still hate on him for that video incident is silly. Kid made a dumb mistake in an age where that stuff happens online every day with all the social media apps we have, time to get over it. Talent-wise he's shown the ability to have big scoring bursts and clutch play, and he's barely even starting to fill out his NBA body.

    Pincus says 28, Clarkson, Black is his guess.

    Works contract-wise.

    There's an extra I in the name.

    Real: ESPNSTeinLine
    Fake: ESPNSTeinLiine

    Also look for the blue check mark on their name.

    Why does twitter even allow such accounts. Ticks me off.

    I'd be willing to go with Clarkson/Tarik or Brewer/#28/2018 2nd/2019 2nd

    That's a lot for a guy we could just get next summer.

    I'm eager to see the tweets from some media members: "George reasserts he will not sign extensions in any other city. Will leave for Los Angeles Lakers in 2018." We need that drum beat repeatedly today. No chance for other suitors.

    Oh really? And jumping off a bridge that's 200 feet high will kill you. Jesus Christ, these reporter's. Worthless.

    Bigger heist than Pau Gasol.

    We picked up two extra 2nd rounders in the trade when we acquired Calderon.

    Bresnahan is worthless. I just mute the TV when he's on to stare at Jaime Maggio.

    Hmmm, thought that was for '19.

    EDIT:
    2018 2nd round pick comes from Denver via Calderon trade.
    2019 2nd round pick is Chicago's via same trade.

    When the rest of the NBA fandom sees the Lakers have finally entered negotiations for PG:
