I mean lets face it, the west is tough. The Lakers will need to add more.

It might still drag on, because the Lakers no longer have a need to appease LeBron and the Spurs don't have to trade Leonard right now, but in the end, the Lakers will almost certainly trade an Ingram/Kuzma package for Kawhi.

Rumor has it he peaked at Baynes in the shower just like Tommy.

Embiid's been obsessed ever since.

But I am actually surprised nobody has talked more about trying to add Dwight Howard on low $$. I mean think about the defense. I get it, hes a head case but i feel like hes at the point in his career wherd hes been humiliated and I bet hes ready to play his role for a good coach to finally get a ring and I cant see a better situation besides the Celtics to do that. There is GS but that's the KD route. Would be alot more meaningful in Boston and just imagine our defense/rebounding with him and Baynes together

It's been brought up. Howard is no longer a good defender. Especially with how game is played today. He was not even the best big defender on the Hornets last year. Force the switch on a guard/wing and he gets blown by. He drops back and stretch bigs will pop and shoot 3s. He'd be useless against the Dubs. The 12-15 mpg he'd play is not worth the potential chemistry and locker room issues he could cause. We're set on our bigs rotation imo.

He's obsessed with Baynes.

He obviously loved having Baynes' dick up his ass all series.

I have to think eventually the Lakers get desperate enough. Can this Lakers team make it past the second round in the west as constructed? lol

I also have to wonder if Lebron behind the scenes is trying to dump Lonzo and his father. But I doubt Pop wants the Ball family.

Feels bizarre as hell to me. Lebron, Lakers. All of this.

lol

Joelle Embiid has become my most disliked player in the NBA. Yes, even more than LeBron, and you all know how much I despise LeBron, so that's saying A LOT.

Terry Rozier and two first rounders spurs. How about that spurs. Only way Jaylen Brown is on the table is if he is willing to re-sign.
