Pretty much this boils down to the Pels not helping the Lakers out.

Woj went from saying the Lakers players are udnerwhelming to saying pelicans got a great haul and Lakers paid a steep price

:russ:

I wonder if AD is allowed in free agency meetings


Anyways

I would love to get Danny Green. He’s inconsistent but his defense is fire. Bring back Ariza. Deandre Jordan at the 5.

I honestly don’t know if I can stomach Rondo. Pelinka needs to know that we need shooting after last seasons debacle. If we strike out on Kemba or Kyrie then we have no choice but to bring Rondo back but hopefully some other team signs him first. Rondo was in his feelings that pelicans didn’t offer him right away so maybe it will be the same thing if L.A. doesn’t offer.

Y’all know the room exception is going to KCP which is whatever. He can stretch the floor.

No to Rondo. I don't see him taking a a steep pay cut. You can't have him and LeBron trying to take it easy during the regular season when the rotation is going to be like 7 or 8 guys max.

Only reason they got those contracts because LeBron is on the team :yeshrug:

It compromise's his teams flexibility (Cleveland) and chance to win (Lakers)

Bron is doing Paul a solid that in turn makes his teams weaker. :ld:


I use to try to argue for it....but was anybody really going to give JR that kind of money :francis:

As good as LeBron has been for Paul's career...I'm not sure Paul has been as good for LeBron (at least yet)

FEAR the Lakers only having 23 mill and giving 8 or 9 of that to KCP.
