Wow…Jovan has insight!!! LOL…every team knows what the Lakers are after….they’re gonna ask for the 1st round pick some seconds, Rui, Reaves and Knecht…nobody wants Vanderbilt or Reddish…I avoid X (“the platform formerly known as Twitter”)
This trade…a midseason trade of two top 10 players in the league, will give us insight into the mettle of JJ Reddick. I have faith that he will make more correct adjustments than incorrect ones. As true Laker fans here, probably for a combined total of over 300 years, let’s have patience with the coaching staff. The team as it is right now, before the trade deadline…has better odds of winning the title than the team of the last two seasons.
I say NO on a Davis jersey retirement. Even though he will make hall of fame, I don’t think the one championship is enough. But in this day and age, it’s all about image to the fans. I’d rather see Byron Scott and AC Green’ s jersey retired than Davis. But, it’s unlikely either of those two will make hall of fame…
“LAKERS TRADE FOR WALKER KESSLER AND BRUCE BROWN!”……..Tom….you’re bringing up a proposed trade…It gets tedious to sort through all the proposed trades. Kessler (or another “proven” center such as Myles Turner are the top two desired players to pursue, I believe. It would be a shame to give up Dalton Knecht, as he is somewhat of a fan favorite and looks to be an excellent outside shooter which the Lakers need as defenses collapse on Luka and Lebron (both of who are also excellent outside shooters). I’d love for the team to keep Rui Hachimura. I realize he is not 90% of Lebron James, but I’ve been hoping that when the time comes for him to step up his game (rest, injury or retirement for LBJ) that Rui can become am 18/8/4 player. Max Christie was a player I am sad to see go. He has been showing steady improvement and maturity. His defense will be missed.
