    Gorgui Dieng is interesting but his skillset is redundant with Markieff. Hope we can sign a wing. April 9 is the last date, Lakers could use one more wing after Drummond

    i figured thibs wouldn't be sold on drummond. the defense is a concern.

    dieng's a center, kieff's a pf. you play kieff at center against ultra smallball teams like last year's rockets, but almost no one is playing that way right now.

    i'm fine with drummond, but i actually think i'd prefer dieng.

    Right now, I prefer Drummond. There's only like 5 games between us and the 8th seed. We need more offense until we get Lebron and AD back.

    The C bags were a bigger threat anyone thought, as I said. I never said I didn't want him.

    Actually, you said he was going to sign with Boston. You didn't carve out a lot of wiggle room for yourself.

    The fact that we weren't linked means we're all in on The Drumm

    Or Dieng blows. Which is likely why.

    Read everything I said, I don't take any of it back. I thought it was Lakers or C Bags once Boston traded their starting Center. I figured he would go for the cash, as most young guys do. I am more than happy to be wrong about that. Still it wasn't the " ridiculous" notion that folks were trying to make it out to be. I never said that I didn't want him, I said repeatedly that it wasn't a slam dunk sure thing. I stand by that.

    Hahahhahah. Not to Slick now, are you?

    Look, Lakers fans loathe the C Bags. It's not anything to look sideways about. The C Bags suck. Their history sucks, their GM and players suck. (Bleep) the C Bags, I hope they rot.

    I don’t recall you saying you didn’t want him. I trust you never said that. But you were insistent he was Boston bound.

    Regarding LMA to the Nets... it is very annoying how much talent they're stacking up. But I don't think their additions are great fits as much as they are big, attention grabbing names. Also, 1 ball, no D.

    Can't wait to see LMA try to guard AD again. It's been a classic example of BBQ chicken.
