DeAndre Jordan Could Join Lakers If Bought Out By Nets 

Post#1 » by RealGM Wiretap » Mon Aug 30, 2021 2:48 pm

The Los Angeles Lakers could emerge with interest in DeAndre Jordan should he agree to a buyout with the Brooklyn Nets. Jordan's minutes declined with the Nets as the 20-21 season progressed and a buyout could save the team on its luxury tax bill.


Jordan signed a four-year, $40 million deal with the Nets during the 2019 offseason. 


Jordan spent 10 seasons playing for the Los Angeles Clippers.

He went Vegan and his game disappeared lol. But seriously, it's like he just went downhill superfast, Claxton took his spot and Claxton was mediocre, is Jordan that bad??

If they keep this up, pretty soon the entire Lakers' team is going to qualify for Waffle House senior discounts.

Also Rondo, Westbrick, LeBold, Anthony injury Davies, Anthony, Bazemore, Ariza, Matthews...

I believe thay want to run and also force FTs, as they have such a fast team, planty of fresh legs and with so accurate FT shooters. Do not forget their 3 point range...

Gasol is still a big question mark right now. Plus, adding a 3rd big man that can be a force on the defensive end would emulate what they had with Howard and McGee.
