All im thinking is ive fallen in more love with Julius lolz , but i literally didnt even notice nor i had one time where i said...RANDLE TIME! So, in this case i dont care about his feelings due to a great win. Hell get his chances, this is just silly having a minute discussion vs the team with the best record in the West and had won 14 straight. This is Ox if he was Luke responding to Randle.
Like myself and @ElginTheGreat and a few others have been saying... whether we like it or not the FO has made it clear where Julius stands in comparison to the rest of the team. That being said, I'm not sure this is part of that equation. I think this is mostly a coincidental advertisement.
Wow I don't know. Coincidence or not that has to really I would think and others have said .... cement in Juliu's head "f*** these guys I am going to be gone and I'm going to make you sorry the next 12 years. Scares the **** out of me.
Not me. Julius isn't going to lead a team to a title, we've pretty much seen that the last 3.1 years. What we're suggesting is trading him for someone who has a shot at doing that (Paul George) and more importantly has a shot at convincing another person as good or better than Paul George to join as well. Obviously I'd prefer he stays, but it might not work financially to keep him around. Even so, Julius doesn't have much of a choice in the matter. He's an RFA in the summer if we don't trade him at the deadline so we can keep him here whether he likes it or not honestly. It's not up to him. The only way he could really screw us over is if we wait until after the deadline and then he signs an offer sheet while we're wooing other FAs. That offer sheet might screw with our timing in order to bring in two max deals and ultimately we'd lose him for nothing, but hey it is what it is. I'd prefer to keep him around, but I think the FO is making it clear that they don't agree so we should all be prepared if/when Julius isn't a Laker anymore.
I'm starting to not like this guy anymore. How the heck do you not able to lock up consistent PT in a team full of youngsters? He's too short to play Center but he can't shoot to get PF minutes either. He's not starting material and neither is he a great fit for what Luke wants us doing.
WTF? You decide to show up for first time in many weeks just to dump on Julius, Rock? What does this guy once we dump him likely look like in 3-5 years 30-40% improved in his prime? He is just 22 you know. All he has to do is get his numbers shooting the J and occasional 3s up around Draymond Green neighborhood and you have a game impactor up in Draymond Greeen neighborhood and a tough SOB that can get mean when we need it. A bunch of pusses is what we will have left. Or guys that want to fight but are too small and puny to scare anybody if they do. Is George that guy? Durant already told LBJ to his face he was a p**** and he's a flopper. Randle at the least deserved a chance to start at PF for the same number of games as Nance and see what he could do out there with our best players too. Ya'll going to be sorry when Julius is killing it in terms of impact and blowing up on some other team in the future. Find a way to keep him if at all possible and still bring in PG and (LBJ / Cousins / ?)
The FO has to play salary gymnastics to keep Julius and add 2 max players. Is it possible? Sure. I just don't know how likely it happens with this FO.
Place what question mark where? I didn't say it would be easy or even possible but we should or should have at least given him the same fair chance before f****** him like this. The ? was for a name other that LBJ or Cousins if they don't happen. Got to get PG here priority #1 IMO.
Just doing best to hold down the fort for Julius supporters until ZenMaster signs in from whatever weird foreign time zone he's in.
