nikkas reallu quick to forgot how Russell was looking at OSU. Always on the next new shiny object smh. If it wasn't for injury and shytty minutes managemebt by Luke, he would be had a great year. And he still had a solid year despite that. Could easily be a 24-5-5 guy next year if his spirit isn't broken
Nobody "forgot" how he played in college. He ain't in college anymore. He's playing against professional athletes, not kids anymore. I like DLo but he will never avg 24/5/5 and this shyt won't be the reason that doesn't. He's just not good enough. Maybe if he started chucking on a crap team, maybe. And likely not even then. He was collateral. I don't like the move because I like him but it's a solid move. If the ONLY way to dump Mozgov was give up DLo, you do it. I may not have but I'm not seeing what they see day in and day out. I would try to keep him but, aye. That contract was more of a detriment than DLo was an asset with Ball coming in. They don't make this move if they don't draft Ball.

you can tell certain franchises don't give a fukk about chips
they just chase big names & hype prospects even if they washed up or are habitual loosers
as long as they sell tickets who really cares right¿

Now who else wanna fukk with Hollywood Court?
:stopitslime: I've stated I'm happy for him cause he gets his own team. I hope he averages 20 PPG. But like I said, Ingram ain't coming off the bench to accommodate Russsell. Nope. :stopitslime:


It's a bad move to me, I liked what the Lakers were doing by going young and trying to develop their core through the draft. This is right back to square 1 where they were obsessed with getting big names rather than letting it grow.


The only player you know that I didn't like was Randle, outside of that I liked Russell, Ingram and I thought Ball / Russell / Ingram would be a great foundation to work with because it would have gotten Russell off the ball a lot more with a willing passer next to him.

The amount of delusion that runs through the lakers fanbase is astonishing :wow:

First it was Russ:mjgrin:

Then Kevin love:mjgrin:
Then Kevin love and Russ :mjgrin:

Then Lebron :mjgrin:
Then melo:mjgrin:

Then Lebron and melo:mjgrin:

Then Demar:mjgrin:
Then back to Russ:mjgrin:

Now back to Lebron :mjgrin:


I wonder how many of these free agents have you guys received? since apparently everyone wants to play for a franchise whose highest ceiling is the 7th seed.And that's with Paul George...
