The Lakers will still keep trying to make trades, GM Mitch Kupchak said: "We'll try to hit a home run. We always try to hit a home run."

Dumping Fisher for Sessions seemed like a slow dribbler to short tbh.

In hindsight, no one in their right mind would have not pull that trigger. Trading Fisher for chump change was well worth it, but who would have thought the fat a$$ had it in him for one final run. As usual, he killed the Spurs.

I'll guranteedamsheed that Fisher will be useless if he plays next season.

One season after Derek Fisher's infamous 0.4 shot, he was on the Warriors, the Lakers missed the playoffs, and Tim Duncan won his 3rd Finals MVP.

The Timberwolves are "pulling out all the stops" to acquire Pau Gasol, sources tell the Associated Press.
Minnesota was attempting to trade Derrick Williams for the No. 2 overall pick in Thursday's draft, and the Timberwolves reportedly would have sent that selection to the Lakers as part of a Gasol package. Minnesota has been interested in Gasol for a while, but we'll have to see if a scenario can gain any traction between the two teams now that the draft has concluded.

Puppies really want an all-white roster huh

Is David Kahn a closet Klanner? :lmao

Fisher isn't fat.

[racm]

He's definitely old and unathletic though.

Still clutch however. Only problem was that he got abused by the Heat's young PGs.

He probably just wants a roster without morons on it. I won't call Kahn racist just because the black players tend to be dumber than the white players. You can only do so much with athleticism and no skill. The day where super athletes with mediocre skill always beating the mediocre athletes with great fundamental skills is pretty much over. Now the teams stacking the deck with athletic guys are perrenial losers.

Kwame for Gasol was a solid move tbh . . .

[DPG21920]

Per Woj, ORL and LA have engaged in trade talks for Dwight.

[DPG21920]

Per reports, it would have to be for Bynum

[jeebus]

Per reports, it would have to be for Bynum

Savior, Kobe, Howard, Howard, Gasol. St:depressedcked

[DPG21920]

If Dwight is fully healthy, Dwight and Pau is so nasty. But Dwight is mentally unstable and LA is not a good place for that.

Compared to Bynum, he's level headed & mature. We got a freaking man-child

Dwight makes Bynum look mature.

[DPG21920]

Have to agree with DJohn. Dwight is all kinds of messed up and insecure/immature.

[pass1st]

Dwight makes Bynum look mature.

Dwight might be a drama queen, but Bynum costs us games for the stupidest reasons. He actually goes out of his way to piss off potato head

:lol Lakers fans even thinking they could/should get Howard

I never said I thought we could, 'nor do I really care for acquiring him. All he will do is sell more tickets.

[intlspurshk]

If Lakers could give up Bynum, they could get Howard. Apart from Session & Pau, any other discussion undergoing?

[ducks]

I would want bynum, hill plus picks
if lakers say no and howard does not go to camp just suspend his ass

A double off the wall.

[InRareForm]

this ain't a homerun, but a good solid double.

[ambchang]

More like a foul ball.

[DUNCANownsKOBE]

I think it's an intentional walk.

Mitch just pulled a Jamie Moyer and gave up a home run to the rest of the West, tbh....

[Donkeybong]

It's a home run then a bukake at home plate on stern's face

[midnightpulp]

I think it's an intentional walk.

[Koolaid_Man]

What's so good about Mitch is he and Dr. Buss always plays it cool...this is why we're a by and large successful franchise...Look at how all these times are tripping over themselves in the Dwight's sweepstakes..Do you see Mitch doing that..Hell No..He's like ok whatever I gave you my final offer take it or leave it..We don't really need that bitch..

No matter what happens with Dwight - whether we land him or not I beleive it will be the right decision for the Laker brass...they know what they're doing...if they really wanted Dwight we could have had him by now..they're really hesitant to pull the trigger...and at this point I hope they let him walk to Brooklyn...I don't trust his back..I'd rather run it with baby Drew...

lol@he 30yr old Magic GM - Hennigan trying to play Poker with a pro of Dr. Buss' caliber...now Hennigan has to take shit back for Dwight...lol

Bases full, Mitch sends it to the rafters! What a home run!

[Bynumite]

Shortly after Steve Nash smiled and held up a Lakers jersey at his introductory news conference last week, General Manager Mitch Kupchak was asked if another home run could be hit this summer.

"So you're asking if we can do that twice?" he said. "I'm not quite sure that's possible."

:lmao

Mitch got everyone excited. Visual proof:

Ooh.. and the ball curves just foul and Kupchack now has two strikes on him.


Nash's name feels like a HR but it's actually a strike..

And now inning over; Los Angeles leaves three runners stranded going into the bottom of the third. We'll see if the bullpen can help dig them out of this 7 run hole.
