Paraphrased. Nothing mind blowing. Just normal logical takes. Also said the WB to Lakers stuff is just talks. Not like they're close to a deal. Talks go on all the time in the NBA.



They should both stay. Build a team there.

We need to build a complete team around Lebron & AD.

LG interpretation

Russ iss demanding trade to lakers


Note to others: that's spears talking and not me.

I don't know if anyone is saying RW is demanding a trade.
From what I've read, just people coming up with ways to get him if that hypothetical situation came up. Just normal forum banter.

not really but OK. However this was my attempt at a joke. Normal forum banter is usually discussing legitimacy, but im all in on the ridiculous. Im actually glad we can post , "as rumor" from anyone.

LA or New York: Is Damian Lillard on the move?
Michael Sykes and Charles Curtis discuss the likelihood of Damian Lillard being traded to the Lakers or Knicks this offseason. Sykes also breaks down if the Lakers need a third superstar to pair with LeBron and Davis in LA.

Not much cap space, but, we have a few (mostly sign and trade) chips
Lakers could use to round the team around those two.

I can't see us winning with 3 stars that will be gassed by seasons end and
a bunch of min contracts. Two of those straps are over 35 yo and the other
has a history of injuries; all of them will need to be managed during the season
but we'll have a slim bench.

I'd build around the two we have and go for it...It's my O, don't think anyone cares...

Can't wait for him to meet Cris & WB here...hell of a day, LOL


Sounds like agents are using the LAL as leverage.

The Wizards should blow it up and tank rather than cling to the hope of 1st round playoff exits.

This seems important. Per twitter.

My brother just met Bradley Beal in line at Splash Mountain. Said he was really nice. Rumor he’s only in town to force trade to the Lakers starting now...

Exactly why we can't just bring in just one $40mm player, he won't cover a
Lebron or AD injury hole with a bunch of min players...

The Big Bang Theory was popular for a reason, I guess.

I don't care what they do but, they are closer to competing by building around their two stars than blowing it up.

Not a story, we know he needs another pond and we could use his
contract to find a better fit.


Kuzma looks like a good kid, but he's not a great fit for us.
