    If they trade Reaves, I’m honestly done with this Jeanie Buss run version of The Lakers.

    Ding, ding, ding!!!
    We have a winner.
    We aren’t too many weeks distanced from most of us claiming that Rob should be handed the EOTY award for what he pulled off this past summer.

    Oh I knew that …. just went looking for information on him. Kind of figured it was going to be Fudge, what with our plethora of wings and problems at the PG and backup center positions.

    I’m optimistic we can get something done without giving up too much.

    Just beat the God damn Flippers plz!!!!!!!!!
    If we win that game, all is forgiven, well..a big a** chunk would be , for me at least.

    Need to sit them Atlanta boys down for a minute coach! Play Vanderbilt and Wood together more, their playing time should have been flipped with Reddish and Prince's last night.

    he's not wrong. but he and austin (who echoed the sentiment in a way) are the ones trying their best.

    why? because he and austin are going to be here in two months. nobody else on the roster but lebron is probably feeling this way right now, so it's harder to dig deeper.

    part of the value of continuity was security, and we chucked that out the window. with ham chucking the familiarity benefit out the window, we're basically where we were a year ago, except in a better bargaining position to some degree.

    Honestly thought Hodge was more useful on this team than JHS is. Oh well.

    I feel you Abeer, but who's giving up? Reddish, Prince, Rui, or D'Angelo? I don't know why Reddish or Prince would be giving up, their playing time is way too high as it is. Rui had a valid gripe about PT, (I like Rui a lot) but I felt like, he was getting back into a little groove , and then he gets hurt again. D'Angelo..I don't think that he can be redeemed here. That's my opinion, but while he's here, we definitely need him to be available, or we have a serious issue at PG. I totally agree with you on that.

    Lebron is the leader of this team, and his leadership during this free fall, has been lacking IMO. Which means to me, that he has already determined, that he wants some of the guys outta here. They know who they are too. That has to suck as a player, when a GOAT is looking at you, as the problem.

    We swapped out guys and made a run mid-season last year. James orchestrated a mid year swap in Cleveland, getting rid of his buddy D Wade in the process. The Cavs still went to the Finals.

    I'm sure that he views this as just business. He's 21 years in, he doesn't care about these guys feelings. Austin and Anthony are genuinely good guys IMO.

    They care about their teammates, they want to win too, but the one for all, all for one mantra, rings more true for them, than it does for James. A lot of great players were a******* too though.

    56-year-old expert stated that he is the highest paid analyst on the entire ESPN television channel. Under his current contract, which expires in 18 months, A Smith earns about $12 million a year.:Jeanie Srsly:
