Not a fan of Russell so I hope its not for him, besides I do think Russell can help the Lakers get out of that 3rd spot.

He was mentioned as a possible deal when the Lakers came up as a trade partner, my brother. If Jerald Honeycutt was brought up in a trade speculation, we'd be talking about him too.

Buy me a tinfoil hat, but Bledsoe was not playing tonight due to "rest". Isn't he a little young for that? He has the same agent as Simmons. I'll go to bed hoping, and wake up to Ajinca.

Ingram crazy length makes it likely he'll continue to get better from a defensive standpoint. I still love him as a prospect. I'd trade Okafor for him in a second. He's been playing much better. Not sure why the lakers would though.

The only way I see the Lakers getting involved is if Johnson is calling the shots like he wants. He may not be as high on Ingram or Russell as the old regime. I dunno. It's more of a wait and see thing.

Mitch reached out like he does to every team.

The only member of our young core you could even get is Jordan Clarkson. You would have to remove the protection on the pick in exchange for a young experienced guard.


Thanks for the update, Mr. Buss. How's Kobe doing these days?


i know this is sixers forum but why cant just everybody be reasonable?

Suggesting Okafor and removal of the protection for Clarkson is unreasonable.

I have a hard time believing that the Lakers are trading for Okafor. They wouldn't give up Russell or Ingram, and even if they would give up Clarkson, I'm not sure that we would want him over a first round pick from someone else.

If the deal was larger and included another player on the Sixers then that player would have been held out tonight as well most likely.

I can't see the Lakers removing the protection on their pick for Okafor, and even if they did, I can't see the Sixers again taking that over the Pelican's pick. After all, removing the Lakers protection could turn out to be worthless if the pick falls outside of he top 3, so that is pretty reckless.

It's trollish. Okafor was already being talked about about in the Pelicans trade as being moved for a top ten protected pick. Clarkson isn't worth more then that.

What's even more amusing is that you think Laker or Sixers fans have any say in the matter.


and where does it in my post i say: fans have a say?


My mistake. I thought one of the statements from "Mr. Waffles" was yours.
