The Summer of the Lakers Rebuild continues but with all the additions made so far, has that reaffirmed Lakers fans’ faith in Rob Pelinka? Are we confident he can get more done, with or without Kyrie Irving? We try to answer the question as we start our series of “Tuesdays with LakerTom” as LakerTom from lakerholics.com talks with Gerald Glassford from the Pop Culture Cosmos about Rob Pelinka’s job performance so far and will there be more that needs to be done. Plus the guys recap the Lakers-Clippers NBA Summer League game in Las Vegas with the lakers winning 83-72 and what Lakers gear could be on sale for Amazon’s Prime Day?

I like the new intro Gerald!
Lotta ins and outs on the Kyrie Irving front. Do the Lakers do the deal if Kyrie doesn’t want to come here? I’m not so sure.
LeBron not signing the extension is the next big question.
Max-C looks like project but you never know. SP Jr. same. If either of those guys is on the opening day roster it means there’s likely a problem. Swider the Sniper could take a 14-15 spot.
Why didn’t Austin Reaves do summer league? He has plenty to work on…
Tom with a really objective view on the potential of Kyrie staying a Net. #wewillsay
Kontract Kyrie year! You know he’s going to do everything but maybe get vaxxed…
Everyone assumes it’s the Lakers dragging their feet and I don’t see that as being 100% true. I think they are literally just waiting to see what they can get for Durant. This part ain’t rocket science to me.
Gerald I’m loving all the little tickers and screen shifts.
Kyrie ain’t a top ten player… Maybe top 20, Gerald. Maybe. Doesn’t play a lot (55 games a season average), doesn’t defend, hasn’t taken a team to the NBA Finals without LeBron.
Gerald you keep trying to derail the Optimism Train that is LakerTom. He’ll give out an A+ and declare it all a success months before you see it or before a trade has happened! I kid of course, if a Kyrie trade goes through and LeBron signs the extension I bump the grade up to a B minus. Not a fan of the LW4 signing at all.
Predicting something Irving will do is like predicting what a cat will do. Impossible.
Amazon Prime Day?! You better be getting a check Gerald, lol…
