This elephant bytch is really tryna create something outta nothing
Her mouth piece is Jeanie, I wouldn’t be surprised seeing white people in the higher ups be mad about this. Just see how cowherd reacted to this
She also said the Lakers pitch to Bron will be "whatever you want" and their willing to give him the keys to the franchise.
magic about to fukk shyt up.Best moves for LAL this offseason;
-Trade Deng + 2018 and/or 2019 picks + TBryant & Zubac for either Lebron or George.
-Sign and trade KCP for either Lebron or George or renounce KCP and sign Lebron or George outright.
-Sign Lopez for 7 mill.
-Resign Julius for 17 mill
Randle/Lopez
Lebron/Kuzma
Ingram/????
George/Hart
Ball/?????
If lakers can keep the 2018 25th pick, I think these are their best prospects.
1. Mitchell Robinson (kg-lite)
2. Anfernee Simons (Donovan Mitchell-lite)
3. Chandler Hutchinson
4. Aaron Holiday
5. Jalen Brunson
6. Tony Carr
Lakers will need a backup sf and a backup pg. Mitch Robinson addresses none of that but he has the most potential imo. Simons is right behind him tho. If Lakers have to give up their picks they will have to rely on free agency to fill these slots. Tyreke Evans and Michael Beasley are 2 names that come to mind and the way they shot the 3 last season (39% each), if they bring those same numbers this season, the 2nd unit will be unstoppable offensively.

If they trade Ingram or Zo
watch them trade Ingram for like a derozan or kemba. Hopefully Lebron saw what Boston did this year and can think long term

Kevin O Connor said Lakers are trying to move up the draft, they like Zhaire Smith. Really hope its a smoke screen, I like J Hart
Jeanie another 1 of them hoes too. When she gone learn to shut the fukk up? She been doing too much talking for years. Remember her crying about Phil not coming back? or throwing Mitch and Jim under the bus while they were still working for the Lakers. I mean I'm happy they gone too but Jeanie love to talk. Just shut the fukk up and let the basketball people make the decisionsHer mouth piece is Jeanie, I wouldn’t be surprised seeing white people in the higher ups be mad about this.

The Los Angeles Lakers have spoken to Lonzo Ball and Kyle Kuzma about toning down their social media roasting of each other following a rap diss track that Ball released on Kuzma this week.
Though Kuzma and Ball are close friends, the Lakers had grown concerned about the increasingly personal nature of some of the recent roasting between two of their young stars, sources told ESPN.
The back and forth ribbing went on throughout their rookie season, escalating from tweets and Instagram posts to Kuzma's recent Bleacher Report "Player Hater of the Year" Award video making jokes at Ball's expense and Ball's response with the track titled "Kylie Kuzma" released on Monday.
The track included a lyric about Kuzma's lack of a relationship with his biological father. Kuzma was raised by his mother, Karri.
That was enough to elicit a tweet from Karri Kuzma on Wednesday:
Sources said the team spoke to both players and that there are no lingering issues and that both players agreed to tone down the joking insults on social media. After dealing with a social media fiasco involving the D'Angelo Russell-Nick Young video in 2016, the Lakers wanted to make sure to nip things in the bud before the potential of anything escalating.
Throughout the season, the Lakers' young players bonded off the court, and they took that online, engaging in friendly mocks and taunts on Instagram and Twitter.
If Ball wasn't making fun of Kuzma wearing a Nike Fleece jacket for several days during a road trip, Kuzma was going at Ball's fashion sense or eating habits.
Josh Hart -- who is part of the same Lakers draft class and has taken friendly jabs back and forth with Kuzma and Ball on social media this offseason -- and Brandon Ingram have found themselves in the crosshairs of the good-natured ribbing that spilled out onto social media, giving fans a glimpse of the relationships between some of the young Lakers players.
"As the season has progressed, everyone has gotten a lot closer," Ingram told ESPN in February about the roasting. "Whether it is talking off the court, whether it is talking on the basketball court, we really have had a bond. Especially when we were winning games. There is a correlation between when we were winning, we are having fun, it translates off the court and we get to learn a little bit more about each other's personalities."
Ball and Kuzma took pride in being able to respond to each other's jokes, like it was a badge of honor.
"All that matters is if you can clap back," Kuzma said in February during an interview with Ball about their roasting. "That's why you see he stopped going at me. Because he knows."
The two friends said in February that they never took any of the shots personally because they knew what boundaries can and can't be crossed. "Nah," Ball told ESPN in February when asked if they ever take anything personally.
"Nah. Never," Kuzma followed.
Ball added, "See, what you got to know is there's set boundaries. Like certain stuff you can't [bring up]."
