Dinwiddie got waived. Really? That's what's out there? Holy crap. Oh well, if we get him, at least he's a Local kid. Let's get this 2nd half started and make a push

Well, tonites game vs Denver proves we ain't got enough fire power to go all the way. And are dependent on DLo to raise a banner this year. And Bron will get another year older

Not sure how i feel about this trade deadline. Dissappointed, i guess. But you're not gonna give up Reaves for Murray and if Vando is expected back in time for playoffs, i dont think you make a run at DFS.

Also, it seems like there are a bunch of solid buy-out candidates that would make a ton of sense.

Ideally, we'd get a guard (Delon or Dinwiddie) and a forward (Gallo or Morris).

PG : Diwniddie, Lowry, Hayes
SG : Fournier, Seth Curry
Forward (3&D): Danuel House , Stanley Johnson
Forward(3 pt specialist): Bertans, Joe Harris, Gallinari
Forward (Others): Morris
Center: Holmes

What is the position you think the Lakers should focus on to improve? Who do you want ?

Thaddeus young is on top of my list. dinwiddie bleeds purple and gold, and I really would love for him to come and make a run with his team.

Hayes and Lowry are great perspectives to have as well.

outside of that we could really use a shooter like Joe Harris or Seth Curry, but I don't know how washed up. Joel Harris's. Morris and Daniel house or great additions as well.




The main reason I'm upset with us not making a move at the deadline, is because we could have created cap space, and freed up some more roster spots via a trade.
I think trading. Gabe, Rui, c. wood, and cam... for gordan Hayward and Miles would have been an excellent trade, in hindsight. then flip Hayward for Simmons or brogden and Robert Williams.

I'm also extremely tired of getting cooked by the likes of Jamal Murray.... is oladipo the best free agent option for a defensive guard?

Countdown until Lebron punches Dimwit in the face.

That guy is an insufferable idiot.

Well you have to look at last night. With another guard down due to injury, the strong possibility is Dinwiddie. Not sayin exactly him, but definitely guardplay, with Max Christie out. Doesn't hurt that Dinwiddie can handle and distribute

I was wondering what’s up with him. Did not know that. He can play make, but how’s his defense? If he’s that dumb, that’s not a good match with AD or LBJ, nor with our coach. We need smart players who compensate for Ham’s lack of smart coaching.

Lowry on the buyout if he’s not all spent.


Edit: Dinwiddie has the 6th best AST/TO rating in the league, is a good play maker who can get to the basket with ease. It’s says his defense is average at best but he has had games with lots of steals so I’d assume that has to be someone who reads the game well. That means that he can improve his overall effort on that end to improve his overall defense. Depends on how much of a knucklehead he is, I guess.

What a flop.

I thought this team had to make a move, especially once Vando got hurt. Brutal.

I hope this isn’t the end of D Lo playing like he means it.

looks like we're getting diwinddie.... does this mean we are out of the race for Lowry? if we were his preferred destination, would we have to release somebody or can we send one of the rookies to the G League?
