it's a sucker move...he's gonna bring his own staff in and call the shots until they lose 2-3 times and then leave and leave us in a hole
Cavs have to foot that 80 mil Tristan Thompson deal because of Lebron
they even got Kevin Love at like 100 mil or something like that [emoji]128514[/emoji]
What legitimate reason does he have to join the lakers and bail on his hometown again? His first reason was to "chase rings" (this was after he said rings dont define a player)
even the clippers have a better current supporting cast for him to work his way into, cp3, griffin, jordan etc
and he can "do the impossible" if he's so great and lead the Clippers past the 2nd round of the playoffs maybe even the finals and a chip

It'd be a similar thing for me...
He wants to join PG & DLo/Ingram/ Ball or Fox / Randle.... Cool
He wants to come in and gut things, nah it's too late for all that..
But I put no stock in this at all

Lol "get off his sack".
He's only the best player of the post Jordan era. I'd take him on my team 10/9. Don't really care what the circumstances are.
To be clear, I think there's no way it happens, but it would be hilarious to see people who have trashed Bron for his whole career be forced to root for him.

Nate Duncan dropping some truth on Ingram. Said he'd be 5th in a 2016 redraft and identified his ceiling as a Nic Batum level player.
Said he'd take Simmons, Murray, Brown and Thon Maker over Ingram. Glad to hear someone in the media with a different perspective.

eh, i'd honestly just not root for lakers (or any team)
Guess i'm super hateful of lebron but I can't support that move even if it brings us championships. The circus that comes with that move negates everything for me

I'll almost go off on a tangent and say real fans would NOT support that move...casual fans will eat it up...real fans, not so much

Y'all should really listen to this. Some great conversation in here better than anything Laker related on TV or spectrum.
Nate also said he doesn't see Dlo as a cornerstone on a championship team, but said the only point younger than 25 that he'd take over Dlo is Kyrie and Murray.

[emoji]128514[/emoji] my bad y'all, I forgot, all of our draft picks are gunna be stars.
Ingram is the next KD, that potential
Is that better? Do I need to throw some more ridiculous claims in there? Compare some more of our draft picks to top 20 all time players? or claim that they suck and need to be traded asap? That's the level of discussion we're used to in here, right?

how about lets just wait and see.
Nowadays players need about 5 years before blowing up (steph, klay, westbrook, harden, leanord)

So he dropped some truth by picking Ingram 5th in his personal make believe redraft. Seems legit

Exactly. Dudes gotta be one extreme or the other. He's Durant or he's Batum. Maybe, just maybe he'll be great as Brandon Ingram.

I wouldn't put Ingram as 5th in my redraft, I just think it's interesting to hear some different perspectives.
I agree, we need 3-5 years (especially when dealing with college 1 & dones) to really see what a player can be/become.
It's just interesting to hear different perspectives because majority of Laker fans really think Ingram is the future star. Hell magic even called him the only untouchable. It's all interesting but I'd lean more on Ingram being a Batum level player than an untouchable, Kevin Durant level prospect. I'd love to be wrong, but that's how I feel.
The cupboard is so bear in regards to the Lakers roster, I wouldn't even mind Batum level players.

We all knew Ingram wasn't physically ready for the NBA...if u can't see his potential than u don't know basketball
