I can't see it, Luva. He's afraid of his own shadow in Portland, how the would he even get out of bed in Los Angeles? , I couldn't get out of my couch if it was Los Angeles.
I didn't say it... I'm just saying. He was on the radio bragging about the Lakers today.

Yep, he'll play the role for a while to give Media a nice bone to bury, but, in the end he'll go where Pau shoulda went. And the prick will prosper. No more headaches, no more nut,,,he's been bleeding for this caper.
I'm just reporting the news.
Lakers planning on giving him 4 years 80 mill
That's the rumor. Mitch said we're going after a max player this year and next. Basically putting the NBA on notice. I heard the NBA is about to go to non-guaranteed contracts. We're going to do some major ing if that happens.
Another dumbass lakerfan with another re ed ing take. Stick to naruto buddy...![]()
It wasn't my take, pussy.
I have no idea what he's gonna do..but I do know that if he lands in LA Spur fan will go on a crusade about how bad he is and how he sucks![]()
If we Land Lamarcus and then Durant with Kobe playing a spot up shooter role we'll be dangerous....
No . Their ass cracks are tight as hoping we don't get him.
They shouldn't want to lose Green and Splitter for Aldridge.
Then.the Lakers would have no bench.
I don't know why the Lakers are even considering Aldridge, tbh..they're trying to build through a youth movement, not sure why you would add a 30-year old on a max deal when your team is still at least 3 years away from contending IMO..
If you want a veteran presence, you add a guy deeper in the rotation, not as your #1 option..
They should tank 1 more year, which should be really easy with Kobe/Scott still around, get another lottery pick or make a big splash next off-season, fire Scott and get Kobe to retire, and then try to contend with young players..
L.A. plans to make Aldridge an offer that's hard to refuse.
The first concrete free agency salvo targeted at LaMarcus Aldridge this summer might be fired by the Los Angeles Lakers. Mike Bresnahan, writing for the LA Times, reports that Mitch Kupchak and company are offering a pretty pennyto the Portland Trail Blazers star.
All their financial eggs now go into the big-man basket. They want to talk to LaMarcus Aldridge, he wants to listen, and if all goes well for both sides, the four-time All-Star signs a four-year, $80-million deal to be the Lakers' power forward.Bresnahan offers ancillary reasons that Aldridge might be interested in the deal:
Aldridge already owns a home in Orange County, his initials are tailor-made for the Lakers, and it just so happens that his good plays were rewarded at Portland home games by an audio snippet of Randy Newman's "I Love L.A."The rest of the article focuses on the relative undesirability of other free agents compared to Aldridge, at least for the Lakers.
Congrats to LA. No excuses now - have a top 5 PF, an elite PG, Kobe. and Randle who lost weight..that should be more than enough to compete and shows the power that LA stil has as a destination where people want to play/win.
Might get the 8th seed, tbh..
Portland was a 5 seed and fringe 2nd-round caliber team:
Lillard >>> Russell
Matthews >>> Kobe
Batum > Lakers' SF
Lopez >> Randle
Stotts >> Scott
Could see them getting the 8th seed if everything goes right, but I doubt it..
Agree....but we dont have a coach and we still need a center
If we Land LA...trade Nick Young and bring in Tobias Harris..we're a top 5 team
But if we can get Deandre I would keep Nick Young and spread the floor..either way..we're back....![]()
