what happened?!!?!
 
Jimmy Butler is the only "attainable" star (same tier as Boogie, George) I would trade a lotto pick for (assuming it's kept).

I was so pissed about that 100 point loss I been on my own strike so ain't been watching the last few games but this guy Zu might really be a player.



14 and 9.7 when he plays 20+ mins.

:rollin

I thought I was the only one who noticed. I didn't wanna bring it up because of the whole Whiplash "hollywood eyebrows" fiasco :lol

are they really veneers, or is it just that he got his braces off and it looks different?
 
I'm fine with keeping Moz... Just have to keep him focused, and staying in the swing of things... If we can get every other game to be like we got tonight, it'd be a great investment.. Also like what he can do teaching Zu how to be effective without athleticism. Also helping him develop a decent mid-range shot would be beneficial. Finally, the non-American connection on how to adjust to US & NBA would be helpful



Deng on the other hand? No thanks.

Attach Lou & Tarik to him

I'm the opposite, get rid of Moz and keep Deng, Deng serves a bigger purpose to the Lakers, Moz is easily expendable with all the front court players we have
 
If we still have Swaggy and Lou on this team after the trade deadline, this front office's complete incompetence will be on display

Why not flip them for draft picks? Jim buss is delusional thinking we can squeak into the playoffs to save his job

Jeanie should honestly fire them immediately after the trade deadline if that's the case.

Isaiah freakin WANTED to be a Laker and we didn't give him the time of day......now he's an MVP candidate

The FO needs a new crew anyway, Mitch is washed and Jim needs to go already
 
The Lakers use to be so good at seeing into the future and making moves before they would have been popular.  This regime has lost that vision.  

Examples of such moves include passing on Porzingis, not even entertaining IT or Hassan Whiteside a few years back.  I know a lot of teams passed on these guys but the Lakers use to be able to see their talents and lead the way for innovative player selections.  Now we just look for the safest route (ie vets like Moz and Deng) and they usually backfire on us.

ok then I guess we should expect more Deng's and Mozgov's in the future while other teams take on the next Isaiah Thomas and Whitesides.

Remember, Vlade for Kobe wasn't a "safe" choice.
bruh, deng and mozzy arent even the original "safest"resort signings/trades this team has made as of late ( lin, hibbert, j hill, swaggy  etc)
