    Everyone in the League, is going to know, that the Lakers are going to be desperate as hell, to make a deal this summer. We are going to have to pay the Rob Pelinka tax on top of the Lakers tax.

    That's a ridiculous take..Washington just gave up a whole bunch of BS for a Franchise caliber player. WTF was Dallas thinking? People are losing their damn minds with some of this " future " s***.

    Trash will be all that's available on the buyout market. I fear everything useful to us, will already be locked up by the summer. Then the cry will be " Wait until the trade deadline!!"

    If we get bounced in the 1st rd, time for Rob and JJ to go. I don't think Jeanie can be fired, but a reassignment of duties should be in order.

    THIS!
    Having LeBron and Donkeyboy on my team would be too much.
    We already had to suffer through the Westbrick experiment.

    The only people that believe this year's Lakers are title worthy as constructed are Slick2021 and deaf and blind people. That's it.

    We better be f***ing out of the 1st rd worthy, or everyone associated with building the roster, and coaching it should be fired on the spot!!

    The new guy in charge is evidently rather stupid too.

    i didn't realize the picks are pretty worthless ones. thought they had given up some of their own

    it's not as bad of a move as i first thought. they'll be an interesting team to watch, but not like they're going to be contending for an east title or anything even close to it

    I agree with all of this.
    If we don’t build properly around Luka and Austin this summer, I’m going to be pissed.
    The problem we have right now is that Rob has done a poor job managing our lesser talent for years and we’ve literally had no young players anyone wants, except for Austin.
    We had to attach assets to get rid of Westbrick, lost the three seconds for a DFS rental, and let valuable pieces like Goodwin and The Eagle just walk out the door.
    You can’t expect other teams to give up good players for our trash every year.
    Rob has been good at picking up players on the buyout market, but you can’t expect to build a Championship level squad by doing this year after year.

    this instructive, but not for the reason you think it is (letting him walk was smart, it was the trading three seconds that wasn't--and that's what everyone wants us to do with a first right now).

    If all the teams with space are trading out of it, it tells me they've gotten solid Intel there won't be anyone worth going after this summer.

    Come on down...Norman Powell, Robert Williams III and Matisse Thybulle?

    Just shoot me know. If you're really believe this then we should be hearing about moves on the margins to shore up gaps like getting a KCP type.

    I actually think a few guy out guys can be particularly useful. Thybulle come on Portland so we'll see
