At the risk of reading too much into things because all players play with each other, news of our continued interest in Klutch sports clients and Lebron buddies while the ultimate Lebron buddy works out with PG isn't exactly helping an argument that those two haven't planned to team up in LA. |

More interested in developing the talent we already have than giving minutes to an old Wade. |

Wade's side chick and break baby is here, so of course it would be an attractive destination. I'm sure Gabby wouldn't be too pleased, though. _________________ So glad we gave you your flowers while you were here, Kobe. |

Someone said it perfectly, a hater was whining why players want to play for the Lakers all of a sudden and the Lonzo Effect was bought up. I think Wade being interested in playing for us will be the first step of many "star players" trying to join the Lakers empire, I'm not sure why people aren't excited about this, we signed a young rising star in KCP and now we have a vet star who might come here cause he sees how everything is improving with the Lakers..
Can we all please stand up and be excited about were our team is headed? We are back baby!!! |

Gabby had that house before DWade, though. Most working actors have property somewhere around here. But she hasn't actually lived here in years. _________________ So glad we gave you your flowers while you were here, Kobe. |

I read the original report by Barry Jackson of the Miami Herald and Wade didn't say it was the Lakers or Clippers, just LA. _________________ RIP mom. 11-21-1933 to 6-14-2023. |

Well LA is either the Lakers or Clippers so I'm not sure what the difference is. |

Next offseason is the real test. By then, everyone will have a better handle on what we have in Ball and Ingram. And we'll see if the stars stop talking about how they might come here and see if they actually do some here.
Until then, we're in a state of "rah rah for my team" |

The Clippers make a lot more sense for him than we do. |

Hmm, WB-Dwade-PG13-Taj-S.Adams with Kanter and Roberson as 6th man, that's a dark horse team. |

Instead of a buy out I wonder if the Bulls would be interested in a
Deng + Randle and/or Clarkson or Zubac trade...or something like that.
For us the reasons obvious we get Wade on a 1 year and can sign 2 max next year, we still have reasonable depth and at the very least our best young talent would get a lot playing time this year.
For the Bulls they continue to add young talent to what they have. Deng, sure it's 2 1/2 years but it's doubtful big time FA are coming to the Bulls for probably 2 years, so by that time Deng is off the books or is probably relatively tradeable in the last year. In the mean time they get a former Bull who is a good pro to mentor the young players.
Wonder if something along those lines would be appealing |

Theoretically possible. Bulls will run with LaVine, Markennen, JC so prob wanna tank for a year or 2 to get more young talents, meaning they not gonna shoot for top FA til then which would coincide with Deng's contract coming off the books but depends on how high they value JC |

I seriously doubt it and hope not. That trade would make us worse even though we get to get rid of Deng. I have faith the FO has a plan and we'll get the 2 FA's next year. I know for sure based on his comments that Magic expects big years from both Randle and Clarkson. I don't think either one will get moved before the season starts. And I think this team as is can win between 35-41 games. |

Sabonis was part of the PG13 trade to Indy. OKC signed Patrick Patterson as their starting PF now. |
