weird . Why not go into full rebuild mode then?

See we're just playing around, trying to have it both ways smh. I dont think Jeanie gives Rob a clear direction to run with.

People wanna play dumb and blame Rob for everything though like it isn't clear as day to see what's going on.

This nikka P is now hilarious

Breh use to be the level headed one

Full Windhorst quote:

"Here's the thing: not 6 months ago, not 16 days ago, but last week, when they introduced JJ Redikk as head coach, Rob Pelinka sat up there in front of everybody and said, 'We are going to focus on the development of young players. We're going to focus on our draft picks. We're not going to trade our draft picks.' That's what he said. LeBron's saying, 'I'm going to take a pay cut for a guy in his mid-thirties,' is not doing that. What move has the Lakers made so far this season to develop the players? It is not with, 'Let's trade a bunch of guys away and give us extra.' It doesn't seem like it equals what LeBron wants to do.. I think Lebron likes being a Laker. But the Lakers and Lebron haven't shown the same priority right now."

You just saw him defending DLO. Him defending a nikka from O State shows you he’s fed up

Thats cool...LeBron just takes his max money

After signing Gabe Vincent and Kendrick Nunn I wouldnt risk 20 mill unless its a more proven player for the MLE.

Cant move DLO then so be it. Run it back and figure it out with the new coach.

Edit: And I do get Rob being worried about Bron talking him to another player in his 30s thats with either washed/terrible fit. So just figure it out.

Bron need just sign for two years and start his damn retirement tour

 

[Dr. Narcisse]

So this is why Bobby Marks assumed the Lakers were letting Christie walk & why Lakers Nation were mad at Rob for not locking Christie into a 3 yr rookie deal. That 2nd apron shyt can get spooky

I woulda let Christie walk and surprise surprise 2nd round picks are suddenly pretty valuable now to stay under the 2nd apron

 

[HoldThisL]

Bron should sign with Cavs and retire.

 

[2Quik4UHoes]

I’ve been saying that’s what he gon most likely do. Have the first year be about the father/son duo and then the second is the retirement tour. If Bryce lookin worth the stay then we might gotta deal with a few more after that on some Brady shyt.

 

[Family Lives Matter]

Salute to Pelinka not bowing down to LeBron and developing younger players.

 

[GoldenGlove]

Lakers drafting Bronny and then pissing Bron off because they don't align on their vision is dysfunctional as hell

 

[GreatestLaker]

Remember when the con man tried to sell us on the dream of trading for Mitchell?

Spoiler

This guy is just awful at his job. His one skill is supposed to be negotiating but he gives a player option to every player he signs. Couldn't sign Cam Reddish without giving him a player option?
