Who cares? PG and Kawhi ain’t want to go to OKC or Toronto. NO don’t owe AD or the Lakers shyt.

Philly's not traded Simmons for Davis unless AD signs an extension. Philly's not going to risk losing a franchise player if the player their getting in return isn't under contract.....A 3-way with LA makes more sense for Philly than a straight up AD for Simmons trade.

AD for Simmons:

G-Butler
G-Reddikk
C-Embiid
F- Davis
F- Harris

Who's playing PG?

A 3 way with LA

G-Ball
G-Reddikk
C-Embiid
F-Harris
F-Butler

This lineup makes more sense.

How do you know the Sixers won’t just take the risk and hope the Lakers continued turmoil plus success with Embiid won’t be enough to convince him to stay? Plus other teams can get into the deal as well.

Well, I don't, and neither do you. However, one thing we do know for sure is that AD is managed by Klutch sports. So any team looking to trade for AD should proceed with caution.

That I agree with.

I’m in a place of peace when it comes to this team. The Raiders showed me a long time ago how to have complete apathy. If big moves happen great, if not :kbshrug:

It baffles me how ppl expected Luke to excel in the fukkery this team has:

*Magic trading young talent, then signing nikkaz like Beasley/Mcgee/Born Ready/Rondo/Tyson Chandler/Muscala

*Lavar Ball fukkery

*Lebron tryna trade to get AD, poisoning the locker room.

*Injuries everywhere

Luke just a scapegoat and EVERYONE even idiot LA media aknowledge it. Bad look for the organization, thats what jeanie gets for running this team like DASH. Fired her bro just to make us a bigger mess than before

I understand hindsight is 20/20...But whoever gave control of the Lakers to Jeanie Buss should've used better judgment. Giving control of a billion-dollar franchise to someone who posed nude for Playboy wasn't the smartest move. Unless Jeannie was a major player in the day to day operations for the Lakers, giving her control would've been the last option.


Jeanie been running the Lakers business side for decades. She’s as major of a player on the Lakers org as anybody. Out of all of Dr Buss kids Jeanie was the only choice to hand it off too.

Dr Buss should’ve never let Jim take control. Should’ve let Mitch become President at one point and Ryan West be GM. Jeanie would’ve never had to get involved in the basketball side with that kind of arrangement since Mitch was around since the 80s.


Y’all remember sports illustrated predicted all this in the 90s right :pachaha:

We complained about like for several seasons, now all of a sudden this nikka is innocent? :gucci:
We complained about his trash rotations, but he connected with the youngins and we were on the way up until Bron/Klutch came through. Then the news he wanted to keep randle and Brook instead of these garbafe signings was another sign he was dealt a bad hand

Buss was smarter than you think. There is a reason why he gave Jim the keys. Knew Jeanie too emotional and would hire friends/emotional connections. Just look at this magic/luke situation. Look at Kurt Rambis wife havng power now. Dr. Buss knew Jeanie wasnt built to be an owner
