Quote:
"Shortly after the trade deadline, Clippers consultant Jerry West—who spent more than 40 years with the Lakers as a player, coach and executive—got together for dinner with old friends who also had former Laker ties, sources said. He couldn't believe how Zubac fell into his lap. The Clippers, sources said, never even called the Lakers to inquire about Zubac. The Lakers made the offer and the Clippers gladly accepted.
"Sources said those at the dinner table shared a hearty laugh at the Lakers' expense."
We are gonna get Kawhi, the Clippers can have Zubac.
He does not want to play with LeBron... _________________

I don’t doubt they did. Especially if the part about just offering Zu up is true. _________________ We pour this booze and we drink this booze because we think it's yummy. YUMMY! So over the tounge and down the throat to party in our tummys.
DOWN THE HOLA BITC*OLA!!!

We have no idea what he’s thinking right now.
True true but we need a freaking miracle to get out of the situation
we've put ourselves into... _________________ Lakers need to build a freaking team !

But why wouldn't anyone want to play with a team that is ridding itself of inexpensive and promising players, so it can make room for one year rental head cases with no shooters and no sense of how to balance a roster?
We've got LeBron James!
We've even shown how to boldly forge a new path with James that no other team he's joined has had the courage to tread! Who needs wins? Who needs playoffs?? We have LeBron James! Let's tank and get another rookie to trade for nothing!
Toronto isn't even close to tanking. Neither are the Clippers. Yeah, Kawhi would be crazy not to sign with the Lakers.

Lol. Magic is to the Lakers what Trump is to the US. A narcissistic dumbass who is tanking our repuation and hemorrhaging our future all because he thinks he’s some kind of genius thanks to business successes mostly the result of having the deck stacked in their favor.

When the LeBron farewell tour is over in 2022 maybe we can sign 35 year old Steph and start our path to true glory

So glad this article was written. A little vindication for all of us cynics. Confirmation Maginka are idiots. I questioned way back when if treating Randle and Russell like they did the way to get PG13? I felt my thought process might have been too elementary, and these things have probably been decided already. But sure enough, it did play a role. Think about it guys.. we could have had Randle and PG13!!!!!!! In their harebrained zealousness for tough guys, they were all too anxious to drop Randle to go get Rondo. I cannot believe how they did not think how this all affected Mintz and his influence on PG13.
This Zubac thing was more confirmation we have idiots running the show. "Self inflicted wound" is correct. Jerry West laughing at us is painful.

^ yeah people were so quick to (bleep) on PG13 (me included maybe), but really he was just us cynics before we were cynics, because he knew what was really going on with our dumpster fire of an organization
lol at these zubac threads and posts. yall really think zu is the next one? ALL OF A SUDDEN. lol at half of you trying to trade before the spl this season.
Have any of you ever thought about the idea that the lakers were planting a seed with the clippers and west? it's not like the lakers have a ton of trading partners they can have a talk to without a bunch of hater interference trying to botch the deals. maybe, just maybe we're playing the long game too. aside from any contract and financial reasons. you have to give to get.

I don't think anyone is calling Zubac the one. He was however a much more useful player, now and moving forward than Muscala is. Muscala has been worthless as a Laker. You have to think if the Lakers were looking to dump Zubac somewhere that they could have done better.

Is Josh Hart the next great one? Is Kyle Kuzma going to be hall of fame? No and no, but does that mean we should deal them for YMCA players? It's not about how great Zubac is or isn't going to be. It's about how much better he is already than Muscala and much younger. But if you're a fan of Maginka, then I guess I can see how you're desensitized by now with the shedding of assets.
This is all you need to know about our FO. It's being ran by lebron. I'm so disappointed in Magic, I really thought he was man enough to stand up to that guy and boy was I wrong. And as a player on the team how would you feel seeing that? I mean, if I were his teammate I'd be like who's side are you on.
Lakers DID NOT have to trade Zubac for a bag of chips because they could have signed another MAX free agent and then decide to trade, release or re-sign Zubac.
Magic is a clown... really... just out of his depth in the FO.
His trades, releases, etc are far worse than what Jim and Kupchak did. Yes... the two previous clowns had terrible FA signings...but they didn't leave the carnage of idiotic moves Magic has made since taking over.
Jeannie bought into Magic's ridiculous hype and thought to use the GLITZ to cover up the incompetent substance of the LA front office. _________________ A three headed monster... Jeannie, Pelinka, and Ham... another terrible season.
