Boston's last "dynasty" ended almost 35 years ago. No one will conspire against the Lakers in 2045. Just be patient. We will be fine by then.

Every freaking off season seems like teams are ganging up in preventing free agents coming here, and/or apply double standard during trade talks between Lakers and other teams. Why not just leave this damn league and form another league altogether. I bet with our popularity around the world we can form some kind of international super league f**k NBA.


Who are the teams that are getting all of the free agents and trades they want?

Nobody is plotting against the Lakers. The media idiots say everyone is coming to LA because putting the Lakers name in anything = clicks and attention. The Lakers are one of many non playoff teams out there trying to improve their roster and they're the only one that even gets looked at by other free agents. The Lakers have a long history of pulling off amazing trades. If a trade doesn't happen, it's because the other team chooses not to get screwed over.

The Lakers are the NBA's favorite team and that isn't changing anytime soon. The Lakers are in a down period since the last championship run, that's all.

It's not a conspiracy. When you're a losing team max level free agents usually don't come to losing teams when they prioritize winning and are on a team that can consistently make the playoffs vs one that has yet to do so.

The Lakers are a much easier sell once they're a winning team.

The time has just come to start counting on the young core to be the one that leads us to win, rather than trying to tiptoe around building around them and praying a max level free agent rescues us from our drought.

Too bad we have a relatively poor owner (Lakers is their sole source of income), who only knows and still bathing in the past glories. Maybe I’m being exaggerated a bit but we need a change of ownership to snap out of this funk. The constant negative press has already taken a toll on the reputation of this team, we need something changed at the top.


While the Buss family majority ownership (about 66% I believe) is the Buss sole business, the minority owners are all loaded.

Anschutz Entertainment Group $10 billion +
Ed Roski Jr $5.8 billion+
Patrick Soon-Shiong $9 billion

By comparison Mark Cuban net worth 3.7B

Dan Gilbert has probably traded with the Lakers more than anyone else in the last several years.
