    Actually I think it’s awfully nice that they went out and signed their new prized rookie’s dad!

    No shade to him but this photo makes him look like those computer generated rookies that come up because you've played like 15 seasons of NBA2K

    Taurean Prince left Team LeBron, he's taking his talents to Milwaukee.

    The Lakers can have Woj say whatever the fuck they want. They need Jerami.

    Lakers will break, Joe big balls has already showed his willingness to wait uncomfortable amounts of time to get the right deal. I love it.

    folks in LA are already using Bronny as a scapegoat. That's just mean. The kid hasn't even played 1 minute.

    A lot of the older Laker fans I know (who have been fans since before the 80's) are not fans of LeBron being on the team. His nickname amongst them is "LeBriq"

    watching a Laker podcast meltdown... they want Giannis to quit the Bucks, just to make the Lakers look better

    after LeBron signed his new contract, a Lakers fan site wrote LeBron is willing to take a paycut to prevent LA's 2nd apron penalties.

    Watch the Lakers dumpster fire get the No. 1 pick in next year's draft.

    I think the Pels own the swap.

    That’s what I was saying. If LA got the number one pick, it would go to the Pels.

    Oh, okay. I thought we were talking about a swap in 2028. That's what I think the eventual outcome will be. One of the three firsts the Lakers can currently trade, an unprotected swap in another draft and whatever players the Lakers decide to give us to match Jerami's salary.

    I do think if the Lakers got a third team involved they could probably get away with one of their future FRPs, DLo to a third team, possibly send a second rounder or two to that third team that yields a future FRP and then give us whatever salaries from the Lakers and that third team to make the trade work. Thus we get two FRPs and salary filler for Jerami.

    Lakers fans thinking that they have the ammo to go get Markkanen is fucking hilarious.
