All the jokes about pissing and moaning kind of take their starch out. They know that coming in here and pissing and moaning, just makes them the laughing stock. This thread won't get much realistic pissing and moaning, unless everything falls apart and no progress is made, then it will explode.

I don't know why pissing and moaning was an issue in the first place, lively debate is good for business. If it was to someone, this thread closed the proverbial barn door long after the cow had left the pasture. I'm sure that unique visits have dropped significantly since July.
Civility should be the primary emphasis of enforcement, not agreement. |

Is this where all posts about Deng, who gets paid like a superstar, but plays like garbage should go? I mean as a player, right now he is a waste of a human life right now. Start playing better, or go play on the freeway.

Pissing and moaning was an issue because it involves complaining about something without offering any solutions. That would inevitably degenerate into who can piss and moan the loudest or most frequent, without any "lively debates". |

Expressing displeasure in your team's situation and the moves they have made is a normal human reaction. This is a fan site, no one here is coming to a solution because they have no power within the organization. Nothing we say here matters at all with regards to the direction the organization takes. This thread will blow up if we suck, but right now there's not really much to complain about. _________________ "It was tough," Kobe Bryant said.

I mean, the team is likely to be bad defensively, they're going to struggle putting up points in the half-court without much better sets and execution, Walton and his staff might not be up to the task, and the neophyte front office still needs to purge $25M from the roster before hoping their two max gambit even has a chance next summer, so there's enough to P&M about if one really wanted to.
But why go through that stress? |

Probably because anyone and everyone who says anything negative gets banned
Realists know this team will be bottom of the west for many years to come. |

PISS AND MOAN?
Kuzma looks great, but the rest of our young players look like crap. And they seem lost playing against non-summer league pro's. I know, give them time, just like Anthony Brown, Devin Ebanks, Andrew Goudelock, etc.
The BI hype training is teetering on the tracks. Dude is trying to force it because coaches and management told him to take over. I guess that means keep dribble-driving to your right and hoisting threes.
Lonzo does not seem to be suited for NBA-style half-court offenses. The run and gun, helter skelter show worked at Chino Hills, and kind of worked in the NCAA until Kentucky was ready for him the second time, but not sure his act flies in the NBA. He is also slow for a NBA PG.
The only legitimately good veteran we have Lopez, who has a sore back before the season starts. Maybe Bogut contributes on defense, if healthy. The whole league knew that the Bulls put too many miles on Deng, except for Mitch and Jimmy.
Other than that, there's not much to piss and moan about.

It's a wing heavy class that could have a handful of good SGs in the lottery for the Lakers to choose from. |

Lakers suck. Garbage team. If we don't get at least 35 wins this season, we can kiss PG13 goodbye because he ain't coming to a D-League team. _________________ LeGoat! LeMazing! LeGend! |

I usually try not to piss and moan, maybe the frustrating preseason to date is taking its toll but now I feel the need to vent just a little bit, so here goes:
It gets really old to visit the individual player threads and see pages and pages of bashing, petty and agenda-driven posts.
There I said it and this is coming from a guy who 1) believes Randle and Clarkson are just about out of time in proving that they are part of future plans and 2) currently down on the play of Ingram, Nance and Zubac.
Ok I’m done |

Serial Laker Name and image Whoring
Buss legacy discussion on taste should be held at the new "UCLA Healthcare" center. Thanks for silently without asking the fans or season ticket holders for trashing decades of happy memories with the name "Fabulous Forum" for "Great Western Forum"
Then I became immune to how bad it tasted with "Staples Center" which is awful.
Now the "Wish" logo patch on the Laker jersey makes me remember how terrible the word "Staples" is in relation to the Lakers franchise.
In 20 or so years the Buss family has contributed to adding four non basketball related hollow horrible turd monikers to our team memories. Stop desecrating the Laker franchise. Looking at WNBA logos makes them look like a NASCAR joke. Rise above the cheap naming and keep it looking cool. I will never buy merchandise with the wish patch never. _________________ "Bobbin' and weavin' and let the good get even" |

My concern with this team is organizational, not the players.
Even if the players aren't competent, talented players will always exist. Doesn't mean much if we can't organize them, improve them, or attract them. |
