no not Nance but we have to get rid of Randle if they want to sign 2 FA's IIRC. So might as well flip him now or at least bench him if he's not apart of the future. Even if Magic/Pelinka decide they aren't confident in getting 2 FA's, do we really want to resign Randle next summer? At the moment it doesn't seem worth it, might as well flip him.

I dont want to get rid of Nance though, fukk that. I think he should be starting right now actually over Randle and Kuzma. Kuz is great but I gotta see him play well for months before he starts. Nance deserves a shot with Lopez imo.

Over on Reddit and Lakersground they ready to ship both Randle and Nance off so Kuzma can start. Kid has played well in I'm summer league and preseason but se of the fanbase are starting to overhype him.

They said it was just summer league, let's see how he does when he's not playing against future insurance agents. Now it doesn't count because it's just the preseason :rudy:

Against the Wolves he got buckets on KAT, Gibson, and Wiggins.
Against the Nuggets he scored with Jokic, Millsap, Faried, and Hernangomez checking him.

Time to acknowledge that he's a problem.

One of my worst fears is that Ingram is basically Wesley Johnson

The Truth
we fukked up 19 in 20 minutes. kuzma and brook not compensating for that


:gucci:

Yall realize we had 3 seasons of this guy... Right.

One good preseason doesn't make up for that bullshyt.

Honestly, Randle definitely shouldve been the one to go and maybe Clarkson with him

Why would we need to get rid of Randle during the season in order to sign two max free agents in the summer? He'll be a free agent, we can just let him walk, don't match whatever contract he signs with another team, and his contract will not be on the books next year.

is Lonzo gonna show up tonight, or is Tyler Ennis gonna continue to run the offense better than him?


8 assist in 11 minutes and sparked a 4th quarter comeback.. lonzo wya?



also Dlo put up 19 and 4 in 19 minutes in his nets debut. Lopez still hasn't seen the floor..



and with PG more than likely staying in OKC, that salary dump for Lopez contract is lookin shakey.

2 seasons and he was easily the best player on the team last year after Lou Will left. Our only shooter....
