Our only hope is that the NBA grants the amnesty to the teams, that’s our only chance at getting CP3 because we don’t have the salaries to send out unless we are including LeBron.

Fizdale has a close relationship with LeBron so you know LeBron would fully support the hire, having Vogel and Fizdale on the bench would feel like we have 2 coaches leading the team.


I think Fiz is more likely to get a head coaching gig. I wasn't impressed with what he did in Memphis or NY, but he seems to have good relationships and a decent brand. Maybe just needs the right situation.


I think Fizdale is better off becoming a top assistant coach similar to Jason Kidd so he can have a better chance to get a coaching job somewhere, Kidd might end up getting the Knicks coaching job and that is all thanks to him accepting the assistant coach role with the Lakers.


What would make him better off? He doesn't need to rehabilitate his brand (like Kidd needed) and he isn't thought of as a top level tactician. It's different than Mike Brown for example, who has been very well thought of as a defensive tactician, but struggled as a head coach. For MB, taking a high level assistant position, even as a means to eventually get another head coaching job, makes sense. Fiz is a relationship guy.

Apparently he just bought a $2.25 million home in Calabasas though

DG, Mcgee, Avery, Rondo, Cook, Kuzma, and our 1st I think works. We can even add THT if needed for salary

But this is a monster overpay and will require 1-2 more teams

I would require a future pick or 2 back for this if I am LA

If you mean you can't wait for Senator Hawley to be thrown out, 100% behind you. The guy is a garbage human being and Woj should be given a medal for his tweet.

The deadline for setting the playoff rosters has passed. Teams can't make any changes at this point.

It will be interesting to see how “ no limits” applies as the mpg pile up each round.

I would not be surprised to see it flare up and he has his limp back by the second series or about 15 games?

That's pretty much what Toronto did with his last year -- 34 mpg in the regular season, 39 in the playoffs.

The playoffs have more buffers built in between games. You can't be sure what will happen until it happens. My guess is the Clippers will start off playing him a reasonable number of minutes unless they get into trouble.

Dallas is pretty locked in to that 7th seed. They're 3 games behind the 6th seed. And 6 games above the 8th seed.
And that's good news. Carlisle is a great coach. Doncic is Doncic. And Porzingis is a tough cover. They could really push the Clippers and make Kawhi play a ton of minutes.
