[MVP]

Hopefully Puke explained why he's such a **** coach.

 

[lovehateself]

Business of the organization what the hell does that mean

"y'all trading us or what"

All I know Magic better get off his *** and do something because I'm not tryna lose another young guy for NOTHING.

The second JR and/or JC publicly say they want out it's a wrap.

 

[Maximus Meridius]

BI, Kuz and Zo was in there with no worries.



Randle and Clarkson probably the only dudes "airing their frustrations"

That's what happens when you parade around the media talking about carving out two max cap spots.

I don’t get any enjoyment out of watching this team because I know what the MO is. It pisses me off.

Haven’t really watched much basketball at all this year to be honest.

But of what I have seen
1. Kuz is gonna be good. Too big of a sample size for fools gold. But the hope is that it isn’t other teams just not knowing anything about him. But it’s a good sign this far into the season and he’s still performing
2. Ingram will get there. Has shown signs as of late after starting off meh.
3. Randle is the best player on the team. He’s a lightening rod. Doesn’t mean he’s most skilled, he’s just had the most + impact so far. And they are screwing him, and will trade him.

I really want to just wait out Magic & Pelinka..

I still don’t get why they did this. It was so weird.

Then on the flip side talk all this noise about family environment, love each other, blah blah.

 

[geno90221]

Randle gon sign with a team like
Atlanta and ball tf out

 

[Maximus Meridius]

Randle won't flourish unless he goes to a team that can cover up his weaknesses and he plays under control. He ain't flourishing on the Hawks on any team that's REALLY depending on him. He'll have a lot of TO's and goofy plays if he's handling the ball a lot.

My non Laker fan friends ask me “why u guys wanna trade Randle he’s good”. Smh he’s gonna flourish

Dlo is on the Lakers = folks hate him

Dlo get traded = folks like him


Randle is rumored to be traded all of a sudden he got fans now.

 

[WAKKO!]

Don’t leave this thread again E

I can understand Randle. Dude has been the most consistent player in the team even his limited mins.

JC on the other hand. He can score at times but other than that dude does nothing else but chuck. I hope somebody yelled out " boo this man " while he was airing out his " frustration "

 

[denni5themenace]

what gripes does clarkson have? if these last few games are any indication, he's incapable of starting and facilitating the offense. his role is perfectly fine as a 6th man scorer, although i would rather him take some of those shots KCP seemingly chucks.

and randle is just not that good. he has the same offensive skill set from the last few years, still plays out of control, and can't set a screen to save his life. he still doesn't have the basketball IQ to pull the defense in and kick it out. instead he constantly tries to force an ugly left handed fallaway shot in traffic. his defensive effort is improved, ill give him that, but he still has mental lapses. with that being said, he still should be playing more minutes than he is right now.

I play by my own rules.

We haven't heard anything from Nance Jr. have we even though his role has been reduced since Kuz's emergence have we? No he just goes about his business like a professional. You would think with the way redacted got out of the paint and JC and Juju being there to witness that happening, they'd know better, but nah. Also Zo isn't our best player but he damn sure is the most important, team plays so selfishly now that he's out.

Nance isn’t a restricted free agent and he isn’t nearly as good as Randle or Kuz so we have no reason to hear anything from him.

I would feel some way if I was the best player on the team and being treated like this. Just trade him now... **** like this ain’t good for a locker room.
