He was just getting warmed up 🙂

You mean he is skipping the game tonight? Besides being a father, could that be another form of load management? Speaking of load management, I think it is less prevalent so far this season. Could that be the result from the NBA trying to take a tough stance against it? For example, the likes of Kawhi and Paul George haven’t taken time off, even in back-to-back games. Just curious.

The Lakers never had the trading chips to get KD. Only stars we have a shot at all have major issues. Age, durability, no defense, ball dominant, problem child.

Best shot would be for a superstar who hasn’t worked out whom the Lakers can rehabilitate. Oh, wait, we tried that with Westbrook.

Why am I thinking we’re going to get Zach LaVine without giving up too much in 3 for 1 trade with a goal to do with him what we’ve done with Monk, Schroder, Wood, Reddish, etc?

Truth is, LaVine might be a good candidate for a move to the Lakers. Health risk is one reason why he could be had for probably what amounts to just our 2029 FRP with light protection.

Would rather give that to get Myles Turner and double down on size and dominating PIP and MFT than trying to get guards who can score but can’t defend. Start Cam and Vando to defend opposing backcourt. Then LeBron guard front court player like we want. Yet, we get a huge backcourt with 3 6′ 8″ players. That would be a killer defensive and offensive team that would dominate PIP and MFT.

To you and yours as well!

Thanks, DJ. Wishing you and your family a very memorable Thanksgiving as well. Let there be lots of fun and good food!!

A very nice human being. I had a chance to meet her in 1978 when Jimmy Cater visited my birth country of the Gambia. I still remember that day. I also met the soon-to-be President George W. Bush in 1991.

PS-Like our 3pt shooters, so consistent. What a joke and that ain’t funny.

These turnovers and losing 50/50 balls are killing us.

Laast night’s win feels like the Lakers playing to the opponent’s level. You are right, we should be up 20 at halftime.

We also getting boreded!

5 out offense will never ever get an offensive rebound, might as well send the 4.5 guys that did not shoot back on defense as soon as the shot is released

If you don’t care who wins, you’re probably not going to watch it. Throw in a couple of blowouts and there you go.

Because he had an issue 2 years ago, he needs to me medically evaluated very thoroughly and carefully…this is one case where he would be very wise to seek medical evaluations outside of the team.
