Ya, been saying they weren't bringing back T.Rob or T. Black.
With the rookie center coming in, there was just no space.

Not much of a choice.

The second unit is going to be just a little different this coming season isn't it. I think this move also cements that we will have Randle at least through the deadline. Fallout from the Indy deal?

Sucks and I hope he finds a good home because he is a solid human being and a great locker room presence. If Mitch hadn't signed Mozgov, he could have been starting for us and Zubac could be eased in while also getting significant minutes.
This probably means we are ready to throw some big 1 year deal at someone.

Yeah, that sucks... But judging from the market, he's probably going to get paid...

We had an option on him right? So that opens up some cap space I'm assuming.
I hope we have a good 1+1 deal lined up.
Tarik is a solid NBA player and will be a good bargain for whoever signs him.

TB is a solid guy and a great hustle player - if only he could have gotten just a little more reliable offensively. Hope he has a nioce career wherever he goes

Big fan of Tarik and think he's a great talent and human being. He'll get paid somewhere so I'm not worried

Mixed emotions.
Bummed that he is not a Lakers but understand the decision too.

Thank you Tarik, you are one of my favorite players !!!! I am a bit down to see a true professional go. But on the other hand....the Zo era is about to start !!!
I truly hope Tarik hooks up with a winning team because Tarik is a winner !!!

Was not a fan. He didn't move the needle much for us.
Good Luck to him.

I could never get tired of listening to tarik black and always saying "thank you for the opportunity" at the end of every interview. hope he finds a team that's willing to give him minutes

Agree with everyone .
Sucks big time. Disappointing .
He played the right way.
Great influence on the youngsters .
He also seemed to love being a Laker.
I hope this is done for a good reason.

Wish he had more of an oppportinity. But he needs to get better. Work on his shot, passing. He's only 25, and there's never been a better time to be a 6'8" athletic and long center.
Just work on your basketball skills, TB. Shoot that three and move that ball. Emulate Paul Millsap.
