Well we shall finally see if he really is just a star padder or if he really does add something to a championship team. He does have injury as excuse but you don't join the warriors to get paid.

9 million for a point guard we don't need. Should have given that to Boogie. Who's our starting C? Zubac? Geez.

Ring chasing at it's finest. Really don't wanna trade for Leonard anymore, just let Ingram grow up some more this season and try to sign him next offseason.


These are the kind of signings we were hoping to get.

Instead the money has gone to guys that would have been lucky to get the minimum anywhere else.

To be fair - no one expected him to sign for $5.5 million, one year.


Where did GS get 5.3?

No, this is an F**k you to New Orleans for not believing in him.

He was going to beat them in the playoffs no matter how low the fee.

Gotta respect that about him.

Now we need to do the same with Dwight! Let him resurrect his name in the city where it first turned to sh*t...

Greedy fans. Should be rejoicing, instead some are complaining and whining.

Bravo Magic and Pelinka. Well done!


For real dude. Just signed LBJ and people still crapping on Magic. I think I'm gonna take a break.

How many times can Magic dunk on himself?


Do you really think Cousins would have signed with Lakers at same price he'd be willing to in GS? How many times do you have to.....No, not going there.


Maybe he would have taken double that? Or what we paid Rondo to be our backup PG?

Cousins is broken. That injury is career altering especially for a big center. Big name, but he will have a small impact if even that.

Well, they had space since we swooped in and stole Javale. Maginka then patted themselves on the back. Then Bob Meyers said, "Hold my beer..."

People freaking out like the draft. We got Lebron for 4 years. Sit back and enjoy the ride.

I don't see LeBron playing 5, nor do I see that role trusted to a rookie.

Right now the only options I see are Zubac and Javale McGee. Not sure either are ready, but nobody else on this roster is even close.

Is Lopez still available? And could he/would he be willing to fit in the dwindling cap space we have left? He fits the bill for 3 pt shooting needs as well as someone to play starting center.

There is no frickin way Dwight is in a Laker uniform next year. Shaq has better odds of being on the roster.

Well that’s just ridiculous. They’re rolling out a lineup of Steph/Klay/KD/Draymond/Boogie.

Jesus what the (bleep) . If Boogie is even remotely close to his pre-injury self that’s probably easily better than the Eastern Conference all-star team
