Agreed, it's bad enough that we lost Randle, who gave the Warriors fits, for nothing.
The odds of one (or two) of our kids turning into a star are much higher than getting one in free agency imo.
Agreed with others. I'm against giving up our Big 3.
Sounds like there's no middle ground with him. He'll either be a hit or miss.
I would have been OK renouncing Randle if we had gotten George because frankly he's a better player. But for the collection of B-level talent we...
I hope so too, but there's so much politics involved that I'm not comfortable in taking chances at this point. I mean honestly, who would have...
True, but we have Ingram locked up for another 6 years, so your argument is valid IF Kawhi is 100% healthy AND he agrees to an extension....
I see your point, but the same could said for our FO. I am a bit suspicious that we treated Randle the way we did to spite Mintz. Bad business all...
It's a risk I take because it's overpaying imo. We need to keep our future Big 3 in Lonzo, Kuzma and Ingram to compete with Philly and C Bags...
None of what you guys are saying makes much sense to me. 1. Kawhi demands a trade to LA 2. Everyone else is offering a bag of chips 3. We have...
Wait, so C Bags have Kyrie, Hayward, Tatum, Rozier and Brown off limits? Why on earth would we offer Ingram then? f*** that, the most they get is...
With Randle gone, Ingram is my favorite Laker. I'm waiting to change my avatar until the Kawhi trade dust settles. I'm hoping we keep him.
You're right, it's not completely a one-way street. The hostility between our front office and Mintz probably started with the D'Angelo trade, and...
Are you serious? How is that any different from Lebron's Chosen One tat or Check my Stats shirt? :D And let's not act like our team is made up by...
While I applaud the FO for most of the decisions they've made, I do feel it's a bit hyperbolic to lump together Lebron's signing and Randle's...
We're probably a 4th or 5th seed in the West as currently constructed unless Lonzo, Kuzma and Ingram all become MIP candidates. Who wants moar?
Yeah honestly I saw this coming and that's why I wasn't posting much lately. Julius was obviously the odd man out after the Lebron signing. It...
I think Randle got f***ed by both the Lakers and Mintz. The Lakers could have communicated with Julius earlier what they had planned for him.
He wouldn't have been a RFA if the Lakers didn't extend a qualifying offer. Making him a RFA limited his options as teams are hesitant with offer...
Yeah, just had to let it sink in. What's most disappointing is the way we treated Julius. He was always an afterthought. Not just the benching...
