D'Angelo Russell traded to the Nets for Brook Lopez & 27th pick

[Paper Boi]

i love the offseason

 

[Darts]

I'm not the biggest fan of Russell but I was willing to give him a chance to show something next season.

That said, it's clear D'lo fans are living in their own bubble about his potential because the outside world from scouts, coaches, GMs, players, talking heads etc are not feeling him like that.

God I love this time of the year

Forgot to take my schizophrenia medicine

Forget again?

Breh I'm BBB across the belly but DLo is better than those dudes. Sure Zo might be a better defender than him in the pros, but Russ can be a 1st or 2nd scoring option on a chip team.

No he can't. Less than 15 a night for a WOAT Lakers team don't mean you're averaging 30 a night for the Warriors breh

 

[pimpineasy]

I'll make him an offer he can't refuse.

That salary floor had Mitch trippin last offseason

He didn't know you don't have to hit the floor they just pay the players on the team more money. He's a goofy, him and Jim.

Negs for any coli nikka that think the finals better than this years off season ESPN might have to put a fukkery index on they front page On paper the trade look foolish... but it remind me of when Riley had a clearance sale once he knew Henny was coming Something in the mix Can't be too surprised tho....Magic dun put nikkas on notice since April... nikkas out here thought Earvin was kidding when he said Only Ingram safe...

A fukkery Index

Probably couldn't get him to chop it up with him at a Magic Johnson theater

Great trade for lakers.

Iono what u guys whining about, it's clear his lack of athleticism will limit him from ever being a star. Question yourself this, when was the last time u seen him dunk? Take it even further, when was the last time you've seen him drive thru traffic and finish...

It was worth it to dump that terrible mozgov contract, and pick up an asset in the pick.

Wrong thread.

 

[William F. Russell]

@KevJ @SchoolboyC @Trill Russell i said we won in here a little earlier but did we? Looks like we'll get the kings pick in 19 rather than the lakers pick next year

Unless Lopez continues being an injury-prone center that can't rebound.

 

[Dwight Howard]

No he can't. Less than 15 a night for a WOAT Lakers team don't mean you're averaging 30 a night for the Warriors breh

He can easily average 22-24 though...
