    Grabbing another big name player through free agency is unlikely, I'll give you that. The culmination of this rebuild will not take place until 3 years anyway, minimum, so the Durant's, Westbrooks are a stretch to begin with. I'm always reasonable and realistic. Greg Monroe snubbed the Lakers this offseason. Greg Monroe....Though the Lakers are unlikely to land a marquee player through FA (When was the last time they signed one anyway 96?) I'm positive the Lakers will never suffer the same type of embarrassment going forward.
    Coming this summer...

    If your play is 3 years away, that is 6 years of no playoffs??? For LA? That seems unbelievably bad.
    It is bad lol but that's what you get for mishandling your franchise. Jim has placed too much stock on the family's brand. How someone who's been in the business for this long not have a foresight is beyond me. That extension crippled them and now comes the high interest and penalties for keeping a tunnel vision fan base happy. Who knows to be honest, they could luck out through trades but I don't see it right now.

    Well damn. I'm not high on LA's future, but even that seems worst case scenario to me. We will see. They need to nail this draft. If they somehow lose their pick that would be devastating.

    Kudos for talking basketball though . No BS - it's good to have Laker fan stop the BS and actually talk ball once in a while.

    All it took was cutting out that cancer. Cancer will return and the new cells will rot on the vine.

    You would because it would be a sure thing. You're for the tank as much as anyone you're just too dishonest to admit it. At least the real Lakers fans admit they want to tank.

    you don't even mention your team these days.

    But D'Angelo had a good night and it only took him a few weeks past the All Star break and Kobe not on the court to do it.

    (tank) It's pussy. It's chicken . There's no honor in it.

    & horse , I was talking about the Lakers a lot before I went on sabbatical. You just don't want to hear the truth. You want some ing nonsense. No.

    Early detractors avoiding basketball talk like a plague

    Most points scored by a Laker rookie
    Since starting and running a completely different offensive set, D'Angelo now has the highest PER by a rookie PG not named Chris Paul and Irving
    Just 19 with no formal pro conditioning
    His shooting efficiency has risen to elite levels, his Feb ranks FIRST (58.3%)

    His growth has obviously been hampered by Kobe's farewell tour and Scott's antics. Ever since reclaiming the starting spot and having more freedom to run offensive sets, his efficiency soared.

    to be fair he has indeed a decent 4 games stretch and a big one vs. brkl but it is quite soon to launch the detractors especially when you see the bottom line results 5 games, 4 losses, -72 !! +/- ( tbh) while Lakers team is -38...ouch, under his command offense is as stagnant as before, his assists numbers are meh... The only notable difference compared to previous 5 when coming off the bench is shooting efficiency but I don't see any structural reason for that not to be flukish... why would he shoot better against opponent starters than against second units dudes ?

    To be also fair and transparent I've just seen highlights of the games and the last 3 quarters of the game @ Memphis and during this game he was in chucking mode... no way he should have forced 19 shots. And on defense dude sucks badly, he is 2014-2015 Parker bad... At his discharge, between a re ed coach and Kobe I don't give a anymore he is not helped by his environment.

    This is some serious a-list gotry. You've led your team to the worst record in the history of the franchise. You've got 12 ing wins. You just took a terrible shot with plenty of time on the shot clock with your team up 3. And you've got ice in your veins? no wonder his own coach can't stand his at ude.

    “To be honest,” Russell said, “I was running out of celebrations.” What. A. got.
