He cares because he's very professional and passionate about basketball. Unfortunately he's just DONE. |

He came into camp out of shape, like most veterans do.

Same, but that's likely not this year.

| Part of me gets the feeling Deng is gonna dedicate himself this off-season and come into cap in shape and throughout pre-season till around mid-December look solid for us before falling a bit in January. |

I'm hopeful the first part will happen. Deng seems like a prideful guy, he cant be happy with his play.

| Deng has looked close to being done for parts of the last 3 seasons. Don't get the contract amount per year or number of years. He has looked old for a while, but we give him 4 years. Lol. |

I guess you kind of lose the motivation to be good when winning is not a priority of your team. I doubt anything is going to change next year unless a trade happens. |

| Who watched him play the last 3 years in the Lakers FO and thought this would be a good idea? Should have called one of us for our opinion. |

I really hope we buyout Deng or Mozgovs contract and just eat the money spent so we can open space for 2018 summer.

| Say what you want, but Brewer was a rotation player on a top 4 team. |

Can someone change this thread title to Lu"Old" Deng?
I obviously didn't come up with that name change, but it's quite fitting.
Whoever gave Deng & Moz 4 year contracts should be fired immediately. Oh wait........ |
