In: Bullock, Muscala

Out: Zubac, Beasley, Svi

If we had just traded Svi for Bullock, I’d say we got better. But the Zubac/Beasley for Muscala killed that.

Magic was so concerned about getting shooters, he totally forgot that other things like defense, setting good screens and rebounds that Zubac brings also count. Beasley was a regular rotation player with good firepower off the bench too.

The Bullock move made sense, but we could have used Zu in the middle tonight.

And Muscala = Mo, so Lakers lost.

No, they just stopped giving a (bleep) and our dumbass coach now has to figure out how to integrate new players when he didn't even know what to do prior.

"Worst" is not grammatically correct.
Please use "worse"

The Bullock trade had us at a +, the Muscala/Zu trade was a -. If we just did the Bullock trade and waived Beasley, then signed whoever, we would be sitting pretty now.

We missed Zu tonight

"sitting pretty"

Yea, like we didn't lose to garbage teams prior to that trade.

Some of y'all treat Zu like he was prime Wilt.

He was a -35 last night in like 16 minutes.

nothing against bullock, but he shouldn't be starting until he actually gets some legit practices under his belt with this team.

Trading Zu was just an awful decision. He has the tools to be one of the best centers in the league

I'm rooting for Zu and Svi… no reason to trade them for what I've seen we've gotten in return..

Lakers are a mess!

Missing the playoffs with Lebron on the team might get some big moves in the offseason.

Makes Lakers even more desperate to make a big move.
