Agreed, I like how this new regime has started.

Traded Lou to the destination of his choice, doing Jose Calderon a solid, all positives for future players looking for a team

Zach Auguste was the last man off the boat in the summer. Doesn't LA give him a look with the extra roster spot?

Which is nothing different than what Mitch would have done. Jose was a good influence on the youngsters, good luck to him in GS.

Mitch also said, "In this business you are judged by wins and losses."

Let it go dude...he gone.

Curious. They've had Nwaba in the minors for the whole year but elect to go 10-day instead of rest of the year with a non-guaranteed year.

I hope the Lakers give Nate Robinson a tryout. He's currently making a comeback in the D-League and doing things like this:

Between the legs!


Too few 7.2 players in the NBA these days for a short guy like Robinson to be effective.
Who would have thought small-ball will destroy small guys' chances.


What's your definition of a small guy?


An ability to dribble between the legs of a defender, obviously.

I think having Brewer/Nwada to put defensive pressure on our guards in practice is a good thing, especially for DLO.

Yeah. The qualitative defenders going from Lou/Calderon/Huertas at PG to probably having Nwada/Brewer give DLO hell in practice...nice.

We are gonna need to add players who can play D during the off-season so hopefully this is a sign that the new regime has a new approach.

Should just have Clarkson and Russell guard each other... Nwada will give DLO hell on offense but Russell will be able to take a nap on defense to little consequence
