Me too but the FO isn't too bright. Plus they've boxed themselves in with promises of all-stars |

I would like that too but we know that isn't happening.
So where else? Doesn't seem like Dallas and doubt he returns to the Pels either. _________________ From 2-10 to the Western Conference Finals |

Why do you want Julius back, knowing he'd be a poor fit playing with Lebron? He is not an off-ball player. He doesn't shoot well from the outside and needs the ball to be effective. I like him, but not for this team. |

Small ball 5. Rebounder, toughness. Ironically, shoots 3s better than BI on higher 3PAs per game too. _________________ From 2-10 to the Western Conference Finals |

He was also a beast in the P&R last year and that is something this team really could have used with a ton of guys who were good at handling the ball in a P&R |

Watching Montrez Harrell repeatedly destroy JaVale and anyone else guarding, I couldn't help but think of Jules. _________________ From 2-10 to the Western Conference Finals |

Well I hate BI shooting 3's too. But again, how does his style of play work with Lebron and Lonzo? He is not a catch and shoot guy. He needs to handle the ball to set up his shots. |

I'm more interested in him as a small ball 5. In the games that I've watched the Pels, he's not necessarily standing there dribbling for 15 seconds and ISOing. _________________ From 2-10 to the Western Conference Finals |

Ahhh Randle.
The moment the Lakers went downhill. Trading in a rising beast for an ancient stat padder. I hope he comes back. He should be that 3rd guy we pay 20 mil for. |

Agreed.
If not I hope he winds up on the nets where can flourish |

I hated the decision to let Jules (and DLO) go, but did they let go of Jules for LBJ or for a 2 max plan?
Seems the latter. In theory, at the time, Jules was let go for PG13, but Magic and Co. were too dense to realize the Mintz/CAA counterplay going on as a result of how they treated DLO/Jules. _________________ From 2-10 to the Western Conference Finals |

I wouldn't be surprised if something like this happened with randle
PG announces trade demand.
DLO trade which annoys Mintz
Mintz retaliates by being cooperative with the nba for tampering investigations.
Magic is fined as a result, which annoys Pelinka
Pelinka retaliates by mistreating randle and showing he was never going to be part of the laker's long term plans, which annoys Mintz.
Mintz retaliates by not giving a meeting with PG, which obviously would annoy Pelinka
Pelinka retaliates by releasing randle at a time where most of the cap space is dried up from other teams, forcing randle to sign the best deal he could at the time.
Bridges are burnt and the rest is history. |

It's two maxes. Lakers could have Dlo, Randle, and still get Bron. _________________ “We must always take sides. Neutrality helps the oppressor, never the victim. Silence encourages the tormentor, never the tormented.” ― Elie Wiesel |

By the time we let Randle go, PG had already announced he was staying in OKC |

I think we are in MUCH better shape had we kept JR and not signed LBJ. But at the time, I was happy with the decision. Some things just don't work out how you think they will. |

There were ways to keep LBJ and Jules. I think they would have been a wrecking crew combo together. _________________ From 2-10 to the Western Conference Finals |

A $20mil/yr with 2nd yr team option might have done it, we just won't have Rondo/KCP |

That's what I thought the plan was too. But Jules wasn't a "big name" so Magic didn't want him. I agree that LBJ and Jules would have been great alongside everyone else. What could have been. |
