ZuWop bout to be the next great big, you already know he's on @Malta's radar so he on point.

And who needs an Ariza? We potentially got a longer/taller Kobe on our hands. Sabo gon have a younger set of dynamic players that can take the burden of him being a hybrid PG/SG off of his hands. Plus, the bench would be strengthened by adding Clarkson to the second unit. I know the Lakers have been a joke these past few years but we're actually in not so bad position right now. Russ would be the player to take the team over the top.

Over the top of what exactly?

Now who else wanna fukk with Hollywood Court?
Westbrook for D'Angelo and Randle + future first(s) seems like the most likely one.


A team that wouldn't fear losing him, while giving the Thunder what they'd want which is Snitch, who also plays the same position as Westbrook which lessens the loss on the Lakers end since they'd get a PG in return.

That may all be well and true but Russ ain't got time for all that.

The time for him to win is NOW. And there are better team with more assets, cap space, and management to help him achieve that.

And I say that as somebody who wants those Celtics-Lakers rivalries to be revived.

He's not staying with Boston.

I think he wants to go to LA but the Lakers aren't going to be title contenders with him.

If he wants to ring, he should go sign with San Antonio in 2017 Free Agency.

That squad is unfukkwitable imo, damn near everyone in the starting lineup got playmaking ability. There's enough perimeter threats to let Sabo operate in the paint. At most they'd need a year or two to grow/gel.

If he wants sustained winning then the Lakers is a great long term option. The Lakers have all the young pieces necessary, if they add a superstar to this mix it's going to be major. Granted, we gotta see what the young players do this year but I think they're gonna turn heads which will make the Lakers a much more intriguing option.

Honestly, the competitor in Sabo might want the challenge of facing off with KD in the same division also. :ehh:

Still seems like a lot has to happen. it's like waiting for the perfect storm. And I don't know how Luke Walton will be as a full-time coach without the luxury of all-star players. And you forget who the Lakers management is :GhostfaceStare: I still say that other teams (i.e., Boston and even Milwaukee) would offer him the same thing but are much closer to the goal as are. Although facing KD regularly in the West would be intriguing. :patrice: But a KD-Westbrook finals showdown would be even better. :ohhh:

By the way, breh, how you from PG County and support the Lakers of all teams?

Spent time in LA as a teen plus Kobe was my favorite player so it just worked out that way. It's a decent amount of DMV natives that are fans of other teams, DC sports suck. :ld:
