When did this happen. Dlo was a better college player than both and have been better than both in the league. I’m confused.

I understand if he resign. Y’all keep taking care of that lil nikka, I want him to steal the city from the Knicks and make himself a superstar.
Oh so Zo and BI should be given a chance, but Dlo, who you also drafted second, didn’t? Both Dlo and Zo were immature in their first 2 seasons. They both were 19 year olds.
Tell me how is it DLo’s fault he was in the middle of f/o changes and he had to be a scapegoat of it? They fired Buss/Kupchak and brought in Magic/Palinka.
You don’t trade a player as talented as he is (his ceiling is HIGHER than BI and double that for Zo) for maturity issues. BI and DLo were both draft under a different management, and just like Dlo, BI will not get a chance to grow with a young team, because LA is in win now mode.
Kyrie < LeBron < AD is more appealing than Zo < Dlo < BI < Kuz < Randle for LA.
A lot of this is how I feel about the DLo situation. The only difference is the Nick Young incident and his feud with Byron Scott. None of our young core had as much fukkery going as DLo did. But I feel if you’re dealing with a personality that dynamic you do what it takes to get them on the same page rather than just cut bait early.
Zo wasn’t ready to just walk in and take things over. That’s a big reason why I wanted DLo to stay. It is what it is shyts in the past now but I knew it was a bad move then and I still feel that way now.

Byron Scott, has beefed with every young player he’s ever coached and his only winning happened when he got carried by Jason Kidd

I promise y'all. D'Angelo has all the tools to be special. He's only 19 and his midrange game is pretty advanced. He's good off the pick and roll too. His passing
This Princeton offense is a weird offense to adjust to. Conditioning and explosiveness can all be improved. The most important thing is he's fundamentally sound. Stop tripping.
