Lakers couldn’t beat that offer? They were reported to be interested in Norm Powell.

Absolute home run for the Clippers. They pick up two serviceable wings for basically nothing.

It's crazy how the Clippers spent what felt like decades searching for just one NBA-caliber wing and always coming up empty-handed to now having a full stockpile of them. And thank goodness we've seen the last of the Bledsoe experiment. He was one of my favorite players during his first stint on the Clippers, it's hard to believe how awful he is now.

Excellent move by LAC. That's what contenders do. Tack on a lot of salary but really got two good wings.

As for us.......

If Kawhi and PG ever come back as themselves it close to it, they literally have one of the best rosters I’ve ever seen.

Legit disgusting that we are doing nothing rn and this is happening

Remember when Portland fans said a 1st, Nunn/filler, and THT wouldn’t be enough for Powell?

Well they got a hell lot less for Powell AND RoCo

Just disgusting from Portland

Clips are disgustingly loaded if they were healthy, favorites imo

Reggie, PG, Kawhi, Morris, Zubac
Powell, Batum, Mann, RoCo, Hartenstein/Serge
Kennard

Ridiculously talented.....Amir Coffey is looking like an Nba player too

I think CJ to Lakers is possible..

Based on your trade it'd need to expand current trade..

Covington+Powell+Bazemore to Clippers
Westbrook+Keon+Winslow+LAL27FRP+SRPs to Portland
CJ+Bledsoe to Lakers

Bledsoe, CJ, Reaves, LeBron, Davis -- Nunn, Monk, Johnson, Melo, Howard -- Bradley, Ellington, Winslow,Ariza, Jordan

Westbrook is really a SG defensively. So the pairing would work with Lillard, I think the way he played with Beal would be a good indication. I think they use his expiring salary for trade in the offseason or next season too.

clippers are nonironically the Manchester city to lakers Manchester United, less valuable brand but much richer owner that actuall puts money on the team instead of it being their trust fund

i have said it before but if i was a lakers fan i would take the 2020 title to the bank instead of acting entitled thst it was only one

this is a new nba where even big market teams can easily lose their stars in free agency (or before if the pressure a trade) if the team is not doing good AND there are more attractive markets and teams willing to overspend than ever (Brooklyn, miami, clippers, probably las vegas when the nba expands, maybe Atlanta down the Road )

being the lakers wont be the same it was in the 80's or 00's as far as playing in easy mode goes

Lakers doing a terrible job getting matched up in transition.

lakers in tv tonight!

cannot wait to get mad at the tv

Vogel can't be serious with this lineup on the floor right now.

Greyhound · Post #851 » by **Greyhound** » Sun Feb 6, 2022 2:25 am

This is some one sided officiating. It’s disgusting.

The Knicks are allowed to hack away, while whenever they miss a shot in the paint they get a phantom call.

Are we supposed to be entertained watching this garbage? The NBA has become such a joke league.

AmIWrongDude · Post #852 » by **AmIWrongDude** » Sun Feb 6, 2022 2:25 am

Pretty frustrating how little respect LeBron gets from the refs especially as a superstar and face of the NBA

Post #853 » by **Fadeaway_J** » Sun Feb 6, 2022 2:29 am

What in God's name is this lineup

He is not the face of the NBA, period. He is just the most recognizable star in the league.

This is something people keep saying, but it’s BS. He is somebody that Silver wants out of the way, obviously.

MisterHibachi · Post #855 » by **MisterHibachi** » Sun Feb 6, 2022 2:32 am

Vogel should be fired at half time for running that lineup. God awful.

Joke turned out to be on them because in typical Westbrook fashion he started chucking more to prove them wrong.

Russell Westbrook is so freaking terrible. Trading for him was such a monumental mistake. Get him off the team by any means necessary.

GSP · Post #859 » by **GSP** » Sun Feb 6, 2022 2:42 am

Just tuned in. How does Bron look? Did he rush his return?

Good point. That's classic Westbrick.
