Very disappointed if true…especially Darius Miles…
Magicman says
Has a really successful podcast with Q Richardson called ‘Knuckleheads’ he didn’t need to do this…smh…
LakerTom says
Very disappointing.
John M. says
Telfair to Memphis as part of the Pau deal was one of the greatest trades in Laker history.
Magicman says
John M. says
More so for getting Pau, of course, but significant in shedding Telfair in the process. Lucky to ditch that mess before it started stinking.
Magicman says
Yeah, good point John. Will be interesting…They’ve all made collectively almost $350 million in salary alone.
Magicman says
They really had no incentive other than to rip-off the gov’t. Good luck with that.
