Klay would be a tremendous fit in the backcourt for the lakers. If Lonzo stays around. I could get use to watching that duo defensively. _________________ “What is 17,505”

I agree. That's why if we don't get KD or Kawhi. Maybe we would've been better off keeping the young core together.
I say maybe because I'm not sure DLO and Randle are the same players they are now. If they stayed here.
They both are playing with a chip on their shoulder. And I'm wondering what that chip would be, if we never let them go. I guess a big contract? But that's not the same as being let go from the most popular franchise in league history. _________________ "Every hurt is a lesson, and every lesson makes you better”

Klay is coming to LA. Why else would Magic guarantee 2 years
I admire your optimism
Thank ya
People say curry is the best shooter in the NBA. I say it's Klay, my boy has the record 37 points in one qtr. World record! Wilt had 31 in a qtr when he went for 100
Curry is the best shooter of all time. Klay might be second.
That article mentions Cowherd as the source. Since then he has started Lebron-KD meter and Le-Brow meter on his show. He himself doesn't stick to what he says the previous day regarding FAs. _________________ Showtime 2.0

I feel like teams get extra perky when a star player is reportedly interested in joining the Lakers.
If I'm a star player who wants to join the Lakers, I'd come out and say that I "don't want to play for the Lakers."
Kawhi “I don’t want to play in Lebron’s shadow, Lakers a distant third.” and KD “Environment around Lebron is toxic.” must be genius then
Yeah. Well, KL asked for LA and was sent by Pop to Toronto. KD will never be traded.
But if I'm AD, I say publicly that he hates LBJ and LA and wants nothing with that wretched city.
In contrast, Klay is still saying he will stay in GS...
he also said he is not giving the Warriors a discount...
And they can pay him a lot more than we can
key word is "can"... Durant said he wants as much money as possible. The Warriors cant say no to that so if he signs Super Max they will be insanely deep in luxury tax to also max out Klay.

Barring a small Kcp type move, Magic prob not doing much this year He wants a chance to pitch the big fish this summer. They ALL sound fine with missing the playoffs (which is highly likely) because Lebron is here for the long haul. I bet if they start Feb off slowly they may even shut Lebron down early. Bet draft night and July 1 are going to be big nights for the franchise (see: 2014-present). None of the kids are franchise changers so I’m sure all will be dangled for the Brow. We shall see

Agreed. The argument for DLO and Randle is. By the time they hit their prime GS would have aged, split up, and/or faded away (somehow). Like 2-3 years from now. _________________ "Every hurt is a lesson, and every lesson makes you better”

Maybe but I'm not convinced they are #1 or #2 option players on a championship contender. _________________ Nobody in the NBA can touch the Laker brand, which, like the uniform color, is pure gold.
