Imagine being sunless, in the cold & getting emotionally attached to a team headed by Jordan Clarkson, Julius Randle, & Giannis with a jumper. ****** getting spicy now cuz of the new look lakers, like the past 7 years suddenly aint happen. Acting like they won't need a plane ticket and an airbnb to go to a championship parade 3 timezones away. Couldn't be me.

 

[ballinsam23]

Maybe a little adjustment fine, but when will college players stop changing their forms? Besides for Lonzo now, i dont think it ever actually worked out.

Fultz
DSJ
Bridges

The list goes on. They need to stop listening to these dumb shooting coaches. Imagine the Matrix or Kevin Martin coming into the league now

Lakers fans are worse than bron fans and now they're basically one and the same. First Trump, now this

and there are guys like Kemba and Kawhi that have gone through changes and it’s worked out well for them.
Even look at Lonzo is having some success

 

[everysingletime]

I think a lot of players change their forms throughout their career, we just don't notice

 

[Vincent Van Goat]

Pelton and Goldsberry had a good discussion on the Bucks and Grizz on the Windhordst pod today

nah

Also Kuzma talk, Goldsberry very low on him and Pelton thinks LA should try to get whatever they can now

 

[dacomeup]

Zion debut Thursday.

Minor changes are fine. Kemba's is almost completely unnoticeable.

Kawhi's shot actually looked better in college. Now he looks like he's aiming everything and shoots on a B line, but its mainly because of his big *** hands

Lonzo had a complete transformation. Gotta be an outlier.

Even RJ tweaked his a little, but its been working. He's shooting better from the FT line as the season progresses at least.

What are the Lakers getting for Kuzma that would be a significant upgrade over him both this year and going forward?

Given he only makes like $2M, it has to be either someone with a similar salary, so a rookie deal or vet minimum type contract, or he'll have to be packaged with another rotation guy in order to match salary for someone else. They don't have any picks to trade either.

Feel like they are better off just keeping him.

Pelicans vs Clippers are on ABC this Saturday.

 

[pmatic]

I'll take Sam Amick's word that the Kings aren't interested in a Bogdanovic-Kuzma trade. They've got a logjam up front anyways.

 

[everysingletime]

Pelicans vs Clippers are on ABC this Saturday.

Oh man. Can't wait.

 

[ballinsam23]

Sucks for Drummond. No one's really tryna pay 150 mill to a center with no range.

Jordan is salivating though.

too bad thats a scheduled load management date

Sucks for Drummond. No one's really tryna pay 150 mill to a center with no range.

Jordan is salivating though.

I feel like he'd be cool in the $15-20M/per range. Someone is going to give him a lot more than that though.

 

[MVP]

Who has cap space this summer?

 

[Vincent Van Goat]

Makes Trez' situation also intriguing regarding the Drummond discussion
