No way this happens. Just trade Lou to Washington for a first and call it a night. |

that #1 pick trumps Clarkson and Randle....then throw in Smart and Crowder....not even close in my opinion. |

Lakers Nation is just copying Mike Adamle's tweets and creating their own article about it for clicks & revenue. I can't speak to Adamle's sources, but I know that's how LN does things.
I ain't even mad at 'em, they've monetized as well as any team site in any sport has, but that's how they do things. Don't get too excited unless you think this Adamle guy has a scoop that no one else has. |

He's tweeted like a 19 times total since 2013. I'll bet the house on "no." |

I agree I think....just dont trust our FO player evaluations after this summer....feels like Magic in involved and chasing a player with a name |

One thing worth pointing out is that once the Celtics unload those Brooklyn assets, we could then ascend to the throne, so to speak, as having the most young assets that teams might want. So, say that Boston got Butler. We might then be in the best position to get Paul George. Or if Boston got PG, we're in the best spot to get Butler. And it might be prudent to wait until the offseason to make the deal, if that's what we want to do, since waiting until then would give us a bit better of a chance to keep our Top 3 pick. |

A local Phoenix guy first broke the Nash to LA news. Not at all saying this has legs but it wouldnt' be the first time.
At least we know they're working the phones this weekend. _________________ 14-5-3-12 |

fyi according to Pincus he tweeted Lakers/Bulls rumors in 2015 and then deleted his tweets when they didn't happen. |

what a crap rumor...
Why would they want Clarkson, Randle, and Lou. They never would.
Leave us our 3 best prospects? Yeah okay.
Zu/Black/Mozzy
Deng/Nance/T Rob
Ingram/who cares
Butler/Young
Russell/MCW
that's crazy good but never happening. |

I love the defensive implications of this rumor. Lose three minus defenders. Gain two plus defenders and open up minutes for Deng at his best position at this point. _________________ How can I get a copy of a Laker game played on Sunday, March 11, 2001 Sonics/Lakers? If you know PM me please
I would be willing to pay you for it. |

we are still uncovering Hinkie presents in future years.....grand slam on the Sac deal because that unprotected 2019 pick has high value |

Yup. His track record isn't good. Most likely angling for the less likely possibility and trying to strike lucky gold. _________________ “We must always take sides. Neutrality helps the oppressor, never the victim. Silence encourages the tormentor, never the tormented.” ― Elie Wiesel |

Is Hinkie going to get a job as a GM again from someone? Or, perhaps the better question is when will he? |

For the most part, yeah. The guy who built them up is now the head of social media over at Spectrum, and he's told me as much to my face. Their goal is to make money and they're really good at it. Nothing wrong with that. |

i know this game is common online, but it seems irresponsible for someone with a local NBC affiliate....I mean he could lose his job if he was simply reporting without an actual credible source....or at least I would think so. Maybe he has a source low in the organization feeding him false information? |
