why did you post this....you know what most Laker fans are going to think reading that list....the entire list


So we could have had 1 and 3? Instead we have........... dreams


No, because if 3 was on the same team as 1 he wouldn't be on the list. 3 gets a chance to be a chucker on a team that will let him take a shot a minute.


Trust me there won be any chucking going on on number 3's new team. He's in an offense with actual ball movement now.


That and if Number 3 and Number 1 were teammates, Number 1 would be feeding him wide open shot opportunities all day and vice versa, so there's that too.


We have a 1 and a 5 and potentially a 3/4. It could be worse.

Lol I did, just throwing out a funny to see who catches it. The season is about to start. What can I say, I'm in a good mood. Can't let these egos bring me down.

All I can say is I'm glad this was just a mild sprain, can you imagine if it was a moderate sprain? He'd be out for 6 months.

One silver lining: This speaks to how well the college scouting group for the Lakers has done its job in recent years. But a Ball/DLO backcourt with Kuzma on the wing? Daaaaammmm... Still, I do like both Lopez and Hart, pulling hard for them both to succeed. If 2 max fails Lopez alone could be decent compensation. If Hart pans out like I think he will we'll be fine.

Seriously, looking back we are gonna praise the Lakers staff for holding Ball out of the pre season, this isn’t just some guy who we expect to be a star player, he’s expected to lead us in the next decade, just look how many players are getting hurt right now, Dennis Smith and George Hill are added to the list of players who got hurt in a stupid preseason game, we need Ball for the 82 game season.

I thought mild sprains with some swelling typically take about 2 weeks? I'm not the expert just asking. Lonzo said it swelled up later the evening he sprained it, which tells me it was more than a tweak.

I've had share of ankle sprains with some worse than others. If you keep playing after it happens the pain goes away. If you don't put ice right away the next morning it will look like a balloon and you won't be able to walk. However the more you move it the better, because if you just sit there it will take longer to heal.

I mean, he's not totally wrong. At least on the Nets, there is no question DLO will be able to do whatever he wants without the frustration from his two previous coaches messing around with his rotations and minutes.

And if he succeeds, then we know the real problem with this organization.
