I mean Lakers fans do think everything is about them. It must be painful for yet another year to go by where no one wants to trade a superstar for Hachimura/Reaves/Russell.

its so indescribably hilarious to me that even after getting out ahead of this type of comment, people like you NEED to say it. its almost like its beyond predictable that literally any time a laker fan wants to talk about any subject, you simply MUST chime in with the same generic comment. Its like a weird nervous tick.

"OH OH Someone brought up the Lakers! Must throw salt over shoulder, recite the alphabet backwards, blink my right eye 3 times, and then say LAKER FANS THINK EVERYTHING IS ABOUT THEM!!!!"

I’m fine with missing out on Thompson. Personally I think he’s cooked. My main issue is that Pelinka waits around on these big names to sign and then is left with scraps.

I think it's over. Klay just took less money to go play in Dallas over Los Angeles. Lakers are stuck with Lebron family and Klutch leading the circus.

Let that sink in.

Klay turned down a lot less money? What does that mean?

Now that Bulls organization has as always chosen basically the worst possible path to attempting to contend for a title. By already yet again, burning up future star salary slot capspace on middling 1 way players.

Meaning no need to worry about returning only expiring type players. Nor combing our top assets for a high end 2way player.

I suggest the following

CHI… DeRozen 20M - 22.5M ish, Drummond (2) 2nds for

LAL…Vincent, #17, any matching expiring scrub(s) of your choosing, and a future 1st.

ok, first of all, if thats what you meant, then you should have said "Klay turned down more money to play with Dallas". Otherwise its gibberish

Second of all... huh? what do you mean he took less money to play in Dallas? Show me literally any evidence of that please.

Oof. Struck a nerve. And yeah. Klay took less money to play in Dallas. Lakers offered him more to go back home and he said no.

LeBron already rescinding his paycut, front office over valuing Reaves in these potential deals im guessing.

Eh, I haven’t seen any reports showing what total he turned down. Easy to turn down a 4 year deal worth for example $55-$60 mil in favor of a 3 year deal worth $50 mil since you’ll likely make more in the end.
