darthska i know I said I’d be happy with whatever but giving up the pick too...for a guy nobody else was probably bidding on.

I’m getting more....delusionallll

 

[noblekane]

went from fleecing the kings to getting fleeced by the wizards

bye bye title hopes

 

[pmatic]

Better S&T Schroder for a shooter now.

 

[atlsfinest]

 

[Lizakers]

Unbelievable
The media narrative is gonna be how stacked we are and how we’re title favorites

he’s just a big name with stats but not a good fit for this team. He plays hard and I respect that and his passion, but we need shooters

 

[dceja]

Wtf man trash team

 

[lovehateself]

this is ******* stupid

 

[pmatic]

Please fall apart.

Kings need to give up on the idea of the 22nd pick so we can get Buddy

 

[ShoeGameBoss]

You guys giving up a lot for Russ

 

[DLF]

Please Kings. Help us

 

[dceja]

How much Russ making next year?

 

[DLF]

If we coulda just gotten Hield yesterday or something. This woulda forced Washington to still send us Westbrook but involve a 3rd team

there was likely ZERO other options out there for Washington

44M. Basically unreadable unless Pelinka works for another team

 

[pmatic]

I know they don't have much to offer, but Lakers are going big game hunting this summer. They always do.

But I think the more likely outcome is they re-sign their guys and then survey the market mid-season to upgrade.

Hello friend.

Geezus Christ

Gonna be hilarious seeing Bron get mad at Russ when he hogs the ball and takes bad shots.

 

[lovehateself]

Please fall apart.

This move doesn’t happen without Bron’s blessing.
He knows Russ will help during the regular season.

The playoffs is where I have hellllla questions.

 

[DLF]

I’ll be optimistic and hope for best

but let’s not ignore:

Pelinka traded d’lo preemptively
Got fooled by kawhi
Played with and got burned by Howard
Chose Harrell instead despite warning signs
Waited for Drummond and promised him 30 mins a game
Now got fleeced by Washington. Why include the pick? Who were you competing against?

 

[lovehateself]

so who are these " big name vets who are wiilling to join the lakers on min deals "

 

[Truth]

wow
