    They have some nice young pieces for sure but none of them will be as good as CJ...in this next year. Why take a step back this summer when we have finally moved a step forward?

    Edit: Just saw your proposed trade, you want to take their old guys not their good young talent.
    I do like Harrell but still....no.

    Let's not be disingenuous about Orlando... Orlando has been a shit organization for decades. Any success they had is arbitrary.

    They're also owned by the same MFs who own Amway. Riddle me that.

    Orlando is top three most dysfunctional organizations in the NBA. Or is that bottom three?

    Growing up in the hood, I always had a fondness of using the term "foo" instead of "fool! All my boys would crack up when I used it! "You FOOOO!"

    Nah, it won’t change because ownership has been the root of all their problems. Only way it’ll change is if they sell.

    You don't have to. They were all injured at some point last season.

    Lakers will miss the playoffs next season after Kawhi decides to stay in Canada.
    LeBron is old. And will miss games.
    AD is alright .
    But Jared Dudley, Kyle Kuzma, Iggy, Korver, ...That is #10 seed in the loaded West.
    I would be sick if they seed higher than beloved ...

    Just wait, if they actually miss out on Kawhi, they’ll splurge on guys like boogie and Marcus Morris lol.

    How sweet would it be if AD gets hurt, Lakers miss the playoffs, and the Pels get their pick.

    And Jarred, Kyle, Iggy, Kuzma ... #10 in the west baby.
    Someone reminds Lebron ... this is not the Eastern Conference.

    I never root for anyone to get hurt.....but those events would cause a very generous Scotch pour.

    AD will get hurt. Lebron has been very lucky in his career. But 35 with 17 year career? He ain't superman.
