    You just summed up 2 of the 3 reasons I want him to go to LA. The 3rd is the hope (expectation) that he and LeBron would not get along and mess up team chemistry.

    Aren't he and Lebron part of the banana boat crew? I'm sure they'd be fine.

    Or thinks the Laker front office is populated with empty suits. Of course, this is a case where they could both be right! :devilwink:

    Oh I have no doubt the Lakers are in fact interested in Paul, lol. Who knows if they're smarter than some schmuck in Oregon who can easily see that they can't physically make it work though.

    Honestly if I’m the Lakers, I say fuck another star. I’d sign Beverley, Matthews, Ariza, Jeff Green, Troy Daniels, and bring back McGee, Rondo, and Chandler.

    Beverley/ Rondo / Bonga
    Matthews / Daniels
    LeBron / Ariza
    Kuzma / Green
    AD / McGee / Chandler / Wagner

    No. They definitely would start Kuzma.

    They dont have cap space to absorb him, and they dont have the salaries to trade for him. Its literally impossible.

    23 million not much Matthews going want to be paid Ariza and Green not going be cheap and Beverly. What went down last I think Rondo will go to different team before resigning with the Lakers.
