So is this right? The only in-season trade we have made in 3 years was to salary dump Zach?

And now we have 18 guards on the roster?

And Vooch is gonna win us just enough games to screw our lotto odds?

cool.

So disgusted by this team. And this is why I was pissed that we traded Lavine.

What did that do for us, now?

Geez what a pathetic organisation. They had a very simple job to execute.

Now that we got the Spurs pick back, AKME are actually going to try and shoot for the playoffs this year aren't they?

With this roster, we're almost certainly finishing the 10th seed again.

Yeah in hindsight it really makes the Lavine trade look dumb, doesn't it? This is the organization desperate to have their cake and eat it too.

Flaming out with just the Zach trade is utter failure.

It satisfied some people. It really was nothing covering up for over paying for Demar the first time

Ppl are made because vuc should in in San Francisco rm akme overplayed their hand just take the 2 irv3 second round picks and players this team is not winning for a very long time also why not trade the guys from the Zach trade along with Carter terry & pat all these guys are useless now they will and should lose their jobs because Christmas they have no idea what they’re doing rn how can you have 20 guards on the roster it’s sick

Or couldn’t the Bulls have done the Marcus Smart trade and taken him with a FRP? You know things are bleak when I’m wishing we had done what the MF WIZARDS did.

If I can AI summarise this it seems people would rather have a bad trade to bitch about then no trade at all.

And to anybody worrying about Vuc winning us games and ruining our lotto chances. I feel like Vuc is going to go into Pouty Vuc mode and will phone the next 30 games in.

I'm more worried about Matas going full Mirotic and winning us games. (not the worst result but I'd rather a good pick)

Why would the Lakers give up that much for Vucevic?

Mark Williams is 23 years old and improving. Vucevic is 34 years old.


Nowhere does it say the Lakers would give up that much for Vuc.


My bad. I misread, but why even mention that you'd take the same deal for Vucevic? Of course you would! We'd all be happy if that happened.

The reality is he's not worth that much.

I would have totally taken Luka Doncic for Vuc in a trade from the Mavs!

People want to pivot away from the mediocrity that this team has been for the last few seasons, instead they've stayed mediocre, just without Zach.

The direction hasn't changed, AK is still talking about trying to make the play-in.

The only way this team changes is by getting a new front office.

What a load of BullChit.
