    Change was needed. Some surprising moves, but I'm sure they aren't done, and probably should not be.

    It's a new day in Laker Land.

    Long overdue, but a new day nonetheless

    I must have rose-tinted shades. You'd think we just traded a prime Kobe for Smush.

    I see that this place is bustling with activity because of the changes and people appear optimistic even if guarded. That's my post to this thread...

    If my numbers are correct, with the two first (assuming we keep 'em) and the second, we have 15 players under contract and probably $18M in cap space. If we move both first rounders, we have about 24.5M in cap space.

    I'm optimistic I'll have more free time on my hands not having to watch this team any more.

    Magic stuffing his mouth with popcorn in the seats adds to the popcorn eating gif possibilities going forward.

    I just saw it during the game tonight. Probably will show up somewhere or maybe you could see if CaCHooKa Man could locate a short section of that footage for you.
    If he likes you? :Laugh:

    Tweaked an old file, but I'd need higher quality to do more, remove the background, etc.

    I forget what he was wearing. That's not last night, right? The motion was very similar .... he was getting after it. CaCHooKa Man's media files are always high quality. :Headbang:

    I know this is the optimism thread, but that's too optimistic.

    I don't think we'll even do that. Our MO is usually to go down by 10 points immediately and then fight to stay in that area the rest of the game.
