    Easy big Guy. He said moderator, not "Supreme Fuzzler of Lakersball.com". That would require battle with @Barnstable .... and not in Temecula.



    Even then if he's not in the mood he could just go Indiana Jones on you .... errrr .... your IP address. :clap:

    So Magic said Kuzma is checked out because he's being traded. Once again, thanks Magic for chipping away at our leverage.

    Rob's gotta love this passive aggressive s*** still going on from Magic running his mouth about Lakers proprietary business decisions, whether he knows anything concrete or most likely NOT. Like the we missed Danny Green crap the other day and like Savs says above .... chipping away at our leverage putting s*** out there.

    think getting a ring from Jeannie means to Magic that his "input" still valued by the organization lol

    eh, his inept a** tried to derail the AD deal because we'd succeed without him, too.

    i think if we move kuz for a retread vet (like i'm guessing lebron wants), we as fans won't be happy about it in the long run.

    yep. you telling me a small market team that needs a scoring wing (like an orlando type) isn't interested in giving kuz a shot? that they think his slightly over MLE contract for two years is too rich?

    I think Kuz will be very good outside the Lakers.

    He needs to go, but I hate how LeBron depletes his current team for a bunch of vets and the franchise loses all the flexibility to be competitive after he is gone

    What depleting do you mean? If it's getting AD for the kids, all the power to Bron.

    As far as Kuzma is concerned, I have never been among his biggest supporters here, but I really appreciate how he has developed his game over the time and IMO, he had a pretty decent season. That being said, he completely disappeared in the playoffs and I won't cry if we can get a more fitting player for him. To your point - I hope it's not too old of a vet, but as long as he's still effective during AD's prime, I'm good with that.

    We can be average for years after getting number 18 and passing the C Bags.

    Kuzma was bad and terrible in the latest 2 playoffs run .


    We are the Lakers , not the Blazers .

    Ship his a** out

    I'm completely bought into getting rid of Kuz. His skills don't serve the team needs.

    I just can't stand what LeBron does to rosters. Miami and Cleveland were terrible as soon as he left. Everything is traded, there are no assets left when he leaves a franchise. I just don't want LeBron to be bigger than the Lakers.

    Yea, I am sure Miami and Cleveland are pissed what Lebron did for them. He got us a title for crying out loud. SMH. It costs to be the boss

    Yes, he is the best in the world and having him is a bless. All 30 teams would sell their soul to have LeBron in any point of his career.
    That doesn't mean it isn't a topic of discussion it's roster management throughout his career

    No Cleveland team or Miami team had Anthony Davis when he left.

    AD needs to come into next year thinking title and MVP to the title. If he is healthy, the Lakers will have a great chance to win it all. It's that simple.

    Blame that on Cleveland management. They had numerous top picks when Lebron left. What has it got them? They also had a top pick when Lebron was there. They botched that too. None of that was Lebron's fault. Do you think teams would not have sold there soul for a peak MJ??? You have to give up alot to get a superstar. The goal is to win a Championship. Lebron has done that every where he has gone. Why worry?? We sucked for 12 freakin years before Lebron.
