The Lakers will still probably be fourth or fifth in the West. Those picks aren’t gonna be that great. Better than if they’d got Kawhi of course. But the Lakers will still be a good team just not great.

I predict them to pick him up pretty soon. Woj was saying a couple days ago that there isn't a market for him, so he could be grabbed for the minimum. Could be a decent pick up for the bench.

Also imagine thinking 5 years ago that Javale Mcgee would be starting over Cousins in 2019.

The Lakers won't have a max cap slot again until LeBron retires or AD leaves

I don’t think he really gets a choice, teams have to want to trade for you. That being said, maybe the Knicks would do it? They’ve struck out everywhere else, that would be such a Knicks thing to do.

Amazing thing is the Clippers didn’t have tear apart the entire roster to get their two stars. Basically traded SGA and Galinari for Kawhi Leonard and Paul George.

A few days ago mr perfect said woj should be sanctioned by the league for “tampering” by saying the “Clip Show” was still in the running

so far every deal is for 2 years. makes sense. next years free agency is not great and lebron can opt out 2 years from now. will probably have a max spot in 2021


You better hope AD's injury history and LeBron's load management don't keep you out of the playoffs. The Lakers are on a slippery slope to Knicksville, where having cap space doesn't matter.

The picks don’t even matter until 2022....so...let’s talk then.

Does this mean that Windhorst was right? Wasn't he the one continuously beating the Clippers drum?

He fricked up this thread repeatedly by trying to shite on Woj for mentioning the Clippers.
