No Ibaka means we're gonna be playing OG and Siakam at the 4 and 5 a lot more this season. I honestly think that'll be fun to watch.

This all feels pathetic. I said I would forgive Masai because he had to find us a home on top of everything else this season, and I'll stick to that. But damn, we whiffed hardcore. Waited too long, everything else dried up, then we didn't get our target.

I am thankful for Gasol during the championship run, but like, dude completely was washed last season, not a single post move anymore and he couldn't shoot.

Time to pour another glass.

oh my god...this is the worst thing that can happen :banghead:

instead of giving this bum minutes i would rather take a chance on a low risk high reward young Center!!!

my lord!!! we aint winning anything anytime soon anyways!!!


I don't even know how to feel about this man. Serge was such a perfect fit with this team.

Maybe he actually felt a way about the minutes he got and the role he was given.

Great shotblocker at least

can we convince him to sign for the MLE?


Don't think there are many options left for him, so he might considering the similar $ some other bigs have been going for.

Would love Whiteside - we need a starting centre now. Really badly.

We just gave minutes to a "washed" Gasol all year and were on pace for 60 wins.

But otherwise I agree with you, not spending $45 million on an aging C rotation opens up some possibilities for this team. We can play faster and younger.

100%. Watching Gasol last year reminded me of when the 'Monstars' stole the capabilities from the NBA stars in Space Jam. He was a gigantic (pun intended) liability!!!!!!!!

He was really out of shape both basketball and weight wise last season and thats weird because it seemed he lost a ton of weight durng the hiadus.
