Lakers trade D’Angelo Russell to the Nets again

[GunRanger]

This cant be the Lakers only move

[Doctor Doom]

They got what, two more years of Bron max?

Took out a second mortgage for future 2nd round exits

 

[mastermind]

Can’t wait for Russell to join the Timberwolves

 

[Joe Sixpack]

Damn, Finney Smith is 31 yrs old??

I ain’t think he was that old

 

[Left.A1]

During that run to the conference finals, he performed well against the Grizzlies and Warriors; we wouldn't have gotten past the Dubs without him having two big games that series.

Yeah, he shyt the bed against Denver, which could've had a lot to do with Ham, but why do we think beating the Nuggets is supposed to be looked upon as the barometer for success?

I know you didn't mention Denver but that seems to be the only team fans bring up when evaluating Dlo's performances these past few seasons.

He shot 31% from 3 during that entire run you're cherry picking a literal few good games doesn't change that.... And his play has declined Eben further with a new coach since that was the previous excuse.... He's a streaky replacement level player at this point in his career that nobody should be batting an eyelash over in the first place

I fear that Shake and Finley-Smith might be another Dinwiddie and Gabe Vincent situation, two guys that don't give you much when they're on the court. A lot of these players, when they become Lakers, their noticeable play suddenly regresses.

I hear what you saying.

But defense is something that doesn't regress, and that's what DFS main positive trait is. That's he's a 40% 3p shooter is a bonus. This team needs nikkas that's gonna bother their guy on defense, something we have been missing since Vando hurt his vagina.

When he comes back, him, AD and DFS on the court at the same time is gonna be a PROBLEM

Not just that but actual tall dudes who can move on the perimeter since Vando is out

DLO has regressed immensely this entire year and he’s an expiring contract who disappears in the playoffs.

They got a good deal for him, and the throwaway of Milton might be something on this roster

 

[Gotright]

Talking about “finally” when it’s not even 2025 yet

Finally dlo gone I dont care if they waived his bum ass

 

[Womb Raider]

Nets must’ve misunderstood the Lakers when they said they wanted DFS and Shake for the low

 

[duckbutta]

Shams tweeted it, basically coming from LeBron himself

Lebron was "out sick" working the phones on D Lo

He should’ve never left us in the first place


Lol now I can take his nets jersey back out of storage

When you have Kyrie and Durant wanting to come, you can't say no.

When in reality they should've resigned him to a long term deal and gotten another max player
