I'm going to ask Jeanie flat out if Kwame's deal is already guaranteed for the third year. Last week, she said it wasn't, but I've heard reports to the contrary. They'll also be taking calls for an hour, from 4-5PM PDT. The seat will be very hot if the Lakers don't make a deal.

(edited the title a bit - EP)

This should be good. If we make a trade...or if we don't, you've got plenty to talk about either way.

Definately give us a heads up on the contract-situation with Kwame.

If it's guaranteed and they made zero moves by the deadline, that's a
dangerous combination for my computer monitor and it's continued safety.

Way to go Dave. I have a feeling they will pull the "veteran guard" deal off or they would have avoided the heat.

I will take the opposite course of action (or reaction)...

I will be curled up fetal position, rocking back and forth, trying to find my safe place. If that doesn't work, goodbye monitor

What are the odds they cancel tomorrow if no deals go down?

That's a superb time slot there, good thinking. As DB said, lots to talk about either way. I'll tune in, for sure if there's a trade.

It won't be all that interesting if no trade takes place.

There will be a lot of bashing and a lot of questions I suppose...
But Buss and Rambis will be giving all the comany lines and they probably won't disclose what possible deals were on the table either.

Dave, please give them hell if there are no attempts to make this team better tomorrow.

Also, Ask Kurt when Phil is going to start to play Bynum. Phil said "now it's time" in reference to playing Bynum, but he didn't play him not 1 minute on Tuesday.

tracy mcgrady trade questions draws laughter.

caller "Mike" one of our own, mentions LG and CL.

overall, its a PR snowjob here from Kurt and jeanie. I guess that was to be expected.

For those who missed it, Jeanie and Kurt totally side-stepped a direct question from Dave Smith about the option on kwame being picked up.

Both claimed ignorance.

BS. Either they were lying or the Lakers chose to send two people who didn't know anything to represent them.

These guys are so full of it. Phil liked the ineup so much we didn't want to trade them??

Jeannie: "Don't turn off the game you will miss great moments like the 81 points" Or like losing to Atl at home??

These guys are worst than the former minister of information in Iraq

Dave Smith why bother bringing in people in the organization who don't want to be honest and accountable towards it's fans?

Jeannie has all the details about her dad's poker career and charity event, but doesn't answer a simple yes or now in regards to Kwame.

What the hell's the big secret?

In the words of Lionel the Laker, Jeannie and Kurt would be non info having **s!

Lets hope they can be converted to info havers!

We all want to be info havers.

Stop serving them softballs - aske them about Mitch's statement that without a trade they wont make the playoffs.

Ask them about their obligation to the fans

Nice...

Kwame was guaranteed. Another non denial from them. Larry Coon has the goods on this one. Cap space in 07 is killed unless we trade either Lamar or Kwame now...they don't want to admit it.

You punked out Dave, jeez. Could have asked some actual questions instead of babying them. And the patronizing way Kurt responds to people not agreeing with the company line is ridiculous. What a tool.
