    keep making them excuses….thats what happens when you are around Lebron James too long, it’s someone else not you.

    yep. hield's the difference maker. fire rob for not dumping two rotation players and signing him to a 10m per contract.

    hield sucks. fire rob for wanting him at all. d****** talent evaluator.

    as long as i get to be big mad.

    gaiz i heard we signed blake hinson to a two-way? who the f*** this this clown? why didn't we sign him to a longer term deal and/or fire him in a rocket straight to the center of the sun?

    the brilliant masai ujiri would definitely have done...one of those...and not what we did...because we're dumb and he's smart and what we do is wrong.

    We are a day or two away from Rob signing Blake Griffin and Jeff Teague.

    Lebron is about to be 40..We shouldn't be worried about who fits next to him. He is still good enough, to be able to find a way to fit around them.

    yeah people are losing their minds. Hield is trash and I don't believe for a second that he "chose" the Warriors over LA. Decided to look into it and Shams did NOT say that at all.

    I checked his article on the Athletic. All he says about us and Detroit is, "His suitors included the Detroit Pistons and Los Angeles Lakers." Not a word indicating we were making moves to prepare a similar offer and Hield chose the Warriors.

    As usual, randoms on twitter twist reporting to get people worked up, but the damage is done before people realize they've been had.

    Lebron is still better than anyone else on the team, outside of AD. That's Tinkerbell's fault.

    Hield is going to sign a 10 day contract, just so he can retire as a Laker.

    I read “fire rob”. Everything before and after that is keeping that from happening for some reason.

    I won’t argue against that.These trades will do nothing to make them a championship team and I don’t understand why people are ok with that

    I get all that. Still, (strictly for me) that WB acquisition sucked a** and that whole 1.5 seasons. We'll see what happens in the coming days.

    And what’s the “realistic” trade(s) that makes us a championship team? Some people seem mad as hell and ARE raging in spite of not having these magical trades available. You want everyone doing it?

    Lakers move typically come out of left field or with teams that they like to work with.
    I suspect it could be Lavine since no word about it and he's Kultch or it will be something like Kuzma (Wiz connection) and Sexton (Utah connection)

    What’s that got to do with settling for nonsense? You want to settle for less than because you can’t get what you want? Not very intelligent.They need a Center,POA defender and they need to use DLO to do it.Nothing else is going to change the fortunes of this team.If They can’t do that why do anything just keep the assets and prepare for the rebuild

    Sorry I misunderstood your point …. agree. Especially the big man. Thought you were including those trades in with the no path to a championship.

    We love the Lakers but Jeanie and Rob and Lebron are d***heads. Not just in basketball operations, they are just scummy people. No endearing qualities when things matter.
