Rich Paul would still be selling hats at the mall if LeBron hadn't brought him into his circle. Lakers will lose out on AD and any and all major FAs this summer, effectively wasting the end of LeBron's career.

AD and his nut huggers are convinced that the only teams capable of getting endorsements for players are the Lake Show and Knicks.

Not Boston, Chicago, Houston, the Clip Show, the Nets, etc.

Kind of ignoring the fact that he had an inability to show an ounce of personality in a small market where he should have been a big fish and now he is supposed to be a big endorsement guy in one of the two largest US markets.

Lakers are a dumpster fire. They will be lucky to get to the playoffs in the next 2 years. This was never about winning, it was about extending LBJs career. Lakers gonna trade away all their talent and be losers just like when they had to pay everything to a washed up Kobe.


I think it is far more likely they are a bubble playoff team the next two years than a contender.

My list was basically all that has to go right for them to not be a dumpster fire or wildly miss LA's insane expectations.....And I didn't even mention the ticking time bomb that is the coaching situation with backstabbing Kidd and coach-killer Lebron hanging around.

I think they realize that is literally is ONLY chance to get big endorsements. He's just a complete dud of a personality, so in order to get anything at all he needs to be in NY or LA where his personality is irrelevant, he will be huge regardless.

Celtics are the team.

He specifically named them for a reason.

I really don't mind a Lakers trade from a standpoint of what we can get from them, Ingram, #4, #6, Kuzma, and use those assets to get someone else like Beal or Turner, but at this point, i almost rather trade with any other team in the league just out of spite. Then i hope no one joins the Lakers, then AD does next year, and they suck donkey dick, and LeBoo retires.

Either that or Rich bluntly knows Lakers are having difficulty acquiring what's being asked.

I think it's a bit of both.

He knows that Celtics have the deal that most intrigues Griffin, and that the Lakers are having difficulty flipping their undesirable assets for assets that the Pels have outlined.

I think everyone is burying the lead: Rich Paul has convinced AD that he can be the face of a marketing campaign because he is like A-Rod and just needs to get together with his J-Lo (Lakers)!

“See, everybody wants to fabricate the facts when it’s me,” Paul says. “That’s just like saying, ‘No, A-Rod, don’t marry J-Lo. Are you out of your f---in’ mind, man?’ This is Jennifer Lopez! I mean, who would you rather me marry? The Lakers are Jennifer Lopez. You don’t want me to date Jennifer Lopez? Give me a reason I shouldn’t date J-Lo!”

Speaking with NBA TV later on, however, Davis seemingly backtracked from those comments. "All 29 other teams are on my list," he explained when asked about the Boston Celtics. "I don't have a preferred destination, I just wanna win." That would mean the Boston Celtics is still on the table as an option, then.

Holy shite this guy is an idiot.

And AT BEST, the Lakers are Jenna Jameson at this point. A hottie 25 years ago that turned into a washed up, methed out, cum dumpster.

Of course. Their offer will reflect this, but that was always the case. Anything with Tatum beats anything else I have read, though.

how is this fricking moron now a power broker in the league?

The Lakers are more like Madonna now anyway. Once one of the biggest stars on the planet but now just a washed up skank living off past glory
