Masai prefers to overpay washed up old Canadian scrubs like Olynyk... therein lies the problem.... he didn't learn from the Thad fiasco apparently...

Yeah, didn't we do right by him through the whole process? I guess he's not obligated, but damn.


We were the ones who waived him in the first place lol.

Yeah, we as the team that waived him for Kira Lewis totally should have dibs. He's a FA, we aren't owed ****. He should go wherever he thinks is the best situation for him.

We had to waive him because he wasn't medically fit to play. Now that he's re-entering the league we should be getting priority.

We should be offer a partial MLE to beat the Lakers offer. He has health issues and they could come back. Guaranteed money is better in his situation than potential money. Klutch doesn't give that kind of advice and he would be aware of the Noel fiasco.

If i were Koloko, i would too. Lakers have a need at C, Koloko can play alongside LeBron and AD, he is in a situation were he can be in the playoffs - potentially the finals. I mean the situation is far more preferable than the Raptors. Oh and its the Lakers.

:nonono:

Trade Poeltl NOW, Koloko's promising rookie season and those stories about him schooling Mobley in the off-season have me thinking he'll be a player

and a painful loss if we lose him

Didn't he also have a ridiculous performance shooting 3's at the draft combine?

All little timbits this guy can play when he finally gets back and develops

What does Poeltl have to do with this? You guys find a way to bring up this trade for everything :lol:

Lakers are at the 15 player limit and are basically pocket change from the 2nd apron so they will be making a trade to dump a guy soon.
When will we just change the name of 25 of the 30 teams to the Washington Generals?

Please advise….

Personally I feel if he wants to stay he’ll make sure he stays. At the same time he also has to do what’s best for him and roll with the team that needs him the most, cause really how many minutes can we give him at the end of the day anyway.

But made sure his contract was paid in full and probably put him in contact with the right people.

Was never really a fan and hoping to see Chomche a bit this season anyways

There are only 2 teams in the league that rank in the top 6 in offensive and defensive efficiency: the Golden State Warriors and the Toronto Raptors.
