    Not to mention that Danny Mange was gifted KG by his snuggle buddy McHale which got him that one ring.

    Luckily we had JW to gift us Pau Gasol to add another 2 rings to the Lakers. So even though he only technically has 6 with the Lakers, if he hadn't stepped down he'd have 8 (and really he should get the credit for those two after he left since he put together Shaq and Kobe), and he was responsible for two more of ours as an accomplice behind the scenes with the Griz. JW is the greatest, period. End of story.

    Let's just hope not for the Clippers.

    Watching the NBA Combine on ESPN 2 right now. Woj, Marks, and Jay Bilas are heading the show

    Luke, Rob, Magic, Jesse Buss are there. Randle will be joining the telecast either today or tomorrow to talk about his upcoming free agency.

    Looks like Rob will join the set eventually today as well.

    Randle's interview already happened. Nothing we didn't already know but he seemed like he was excited to see how our guys come back next year in better shape. Just need Randle to be patient before signing an offer sheet or anything.

    He apparently crushed the combine testing as well leading or close to it in bunch of categories. He's not on my mock because he isnt fully committed yet, but rumor is he would commit if he got a guarantee any point in the 1st round.

    He was fun to watch. I like any player that is not scared to ball; shame on you Rodney Hood.

    In my mock on here, I had him going to the C Bags late in the 1st. It just feels right.

    I know Ed had him at #25 to us and Real had him projected at 23 to the Pacers.

    I like him. Doesn't project to be a star, but has really great 3 and D potential.

    He didn't measure great at the combine for height, but his length and athleticism are solid.

    I know he's probably not an immediate contributor but I would love to go up and get Bamba if we strike out with the 2max and go with just PG this summer and revisit '19 free agency.

    How long do y'all project that guy being a 30+ min guy in the league?
