Yeah I'm baffled with the calls here to still casually throw BI and Hart into Toronto now at the deadline for Kawhi. Toronto ought to be thrilled if they're getting one of Moe or Svi along with say Zubac and Rob the Shark's well schemed "fillers / picks". Long as Leonard can still play and wants to play for the Lakers. It's all on him. First .... be MVP Guy again and second, maintain your L.A. or bust mentality. If not GTFO because we shouldn't be gutting the great depth for you if you want to win. LeBron didn't want that either.
It’s nice to see Magic and Rob be so candid about the status of our team. What a refreshing change from the the tight lipped riddles Mitch used to employ with the media. I also LOVE that Rob won’t even mention the Dubs by name. That’s the mentality we need.
Jeesus. So if LeBron's personality isn't enough on its own to cause any resentment in the locker room ..... sure glad we have you to help in that area.
You should have at least linked Rob's soliloquy so they know where the hell that's coming from. But noooooo!
All in good fun, and they experience worse in person every day, so it's not a problem. #toxiccultureitis
Sadly I think the event was primarily for season ticket holders. I scoured over twitter and then internet last night trying to find a video link but only found a bunch of quotes and video clips here and there. I posted a lot of the stuff I had in the appropriate threads, but you can see all of the main quotes from this guy - https://twitter.com/MMoreno1015
I've been told that our FO isn't very good with player relations. Yet Deng gave back just enough money for a max slot next summer even tho he was frustrated with his situation last year... We couldnt convince Jules and his team to stay, so we granted him unrestricted free agency and now it appears another Mintz client could be heading back our way...#EverythingHappensForAriza-n And this... Seems like we're kissing major Klutch a**...but if KCP is part of the deal, we need his consent... ...and oh yeah, they just picked up that AD guy. This is what it's like to have a player agent become your GM.
^ Well Said. Rob has been terrific because he's been in those shoes and understands what it takes. And to think that I was scared to move away from Mitch. Even though things weren't getting any better I was caught reminiscing about the past and what Mitch had done for this team back then. Safe to say it was time to leave the safety net of the past and move toward the future and what a team we have with Jeanie - Magic - Rob - Jessie - Draft Department - etc... Love it!
Its really interesting looking at all the small side connections Rob and Magic have been able to make that will pay off in the long run. We’ve been able to work well with Rich Paul and even wine and dine him, that will all pay off during the AD sweepstakes.
