All those wasted hours searching through sports sites regarding potential trades instead of studying and we do nothing. If I do poorly on my exam, Im gonna skull **** Mitch.

Idk...we might have an Exum/Wiggins/Parker in that mix as well...
The Spurs model... couple older guys with some younger guys...too bad we dont have the coach to do it

so the Lakers aren't tanking, not looking for salary dumps/late picks, and they're gonna try to keep Pau
nobody is gonna give me props but I've been saying this all season
I still consider this tanking. They just didn't have to give away players to get to this point. Injuries took those players for us.
Shedding Pau would've made the team worse, but they're already at the bottom of the barrel roster-wise.

to me tanking implies intentionally losing, doing everything in your power to get the most lotto balls. Lakers have been trying to compete from day 1 and would have made the playoffs if healthy

Mitch wanted a king's ransom for Jordan Hill and Kaman

Does anyone consider the other side? That other GM's where trying to fleece Mitch cause they know our situation (competitive tanking) ?
Maybe Mitch tried for a fair deal but the other guys were the greedy onesso he stood his ground... Mitch usually makes mutually beneficial deals

Mitch probably wanted to trade Kaman for Philly's 1st round pick this year and wanted the Bucks 1st rounder this year as well for Jordan Hill

this actually pisses me off now. like why just halfway it. **** just leaves us in limbo. if you're going to chop the team up, then chop it up. why waste the opportunity to get better. the FO is ******* with my emotions as a fan yo.

At the end of the day, if Nash retires( i know he aint gonna walk from that $) and MDA is gone this summer, it'll be a successful summer.

Maybe Silver will want to make an example out of them and rig the draft this way...and reward LA for keeping the team together and "trying to win" and giving us the 1st pick

For what though? Nobody on the roster outside of Kobe is worth more than a 2nd rd pick. That's not going to change. I don't care if all we got back was a bag of Doritos. Having them off the roster does us a lot more good than bad. If they all come back healthy in the next couple weeks, there goes our shot at Jabari, Wiggins,
All he's done is sabatoge our draft chances for ppl who will be gone theoretically anyway. Just stupidity man.

The goal of tanking is to embrace losing.
I guess what I'm saying is the Lakers were able to reach that goal... without intentionally tanking.
It's kinda crazy. They let fate do all the work for them. Hard to describe.
