| Worst trade by any gm this year. Tonight was exactly the game where Zubac and Beasley could provide some pop. Instead we have this scrub who like barely even plays. |

Thus far, looks like a really lopsided trade.

we gave up a 2nd rounder for Bullock who was an expiring... we couldnt atleast get a 2nd rounder for Zubac??
And also why would we trade Zu to the Clippers who are trying to build their own up and coming team and will be fighting us for Kawhi? I know Zu doesnt really move the needle to a team's overall direction but you just dont do a solid like this to a team competing directly against you

Remember.... their philosophy for this trade..according to Pelinka was
"We had three centers that did the same thing, so we wanted to get one that could space the floor(ignoring the fact Wagner is on the team) and so Zubac went."
Essentially
1) they thought Zubac did the same thing as McGee and Chandler
2) They got rid of him because he was the strongest one, for a guy who is pointless on this team with Wagner.
That's a near fireable offense and shows a complete lack of understanding of the talent they have.
Funny the only people that know what they're doing are the people from the previous Regime (Ryan West and Jesse Buss) as they are the reasons our drafts have done well.

This trade brought back that gutpunch feeling I had when we traded Nance. He was my guy. At least I took satisfaction in knowing he was going back home and wearing his father's jersey. Losing Zu...for this.
Ugh  |

Kings already offered Ryan West a chance to be their GM, he turned it down to remain loyal to the Lakers.
That was when Mitch was still here and Ryan was being groomed to be our next GM. And also prior to Mitch getting fired and his father being disrespected by the new regime.

Rob Pelinka is a smooth-talking puppet controlled by someone who's even dumber than he is. |

I think the small ball lineup with Kuz at C may lead to the death of Muscala.
Well, that and his lack of effectiveness on the court.
Too bad this Kid didn’t have more time with the Lakers. i actually think if he had the benefit of time, he would have been a nice role player. |

From his 2 blocks in 5 minutes, with 1 against AD, I saw the reasons we traded Zubac for him. He could be another nice 3D after Bullock |

That was really alarming. Trade youth, upside who virtually does the same thing as players in McGee and Chandler that are not remotely close to our future to keep those same players that are older, but isn't as good. Zu is better, fit with us better, developed chemistry with Rondo, Bron, and zo and has upside, but we would rather make are team worse by trading talent to get someone who can shoot a 3 or 2, but isn't that good on defense or offense, basically just a space filler, but he's a vet so it is cool.
I be thinking Rob and Magic are trolling. I honestly don't think they are that naive when it comes to putting a team together. The trades they make, their player evaluations, their big mouths when discussing their "plan" is just so mind boggling. It leaves me scratching my head. Hope D'Andre Jordan comes available so we can hopefully sign him, another player that does the same thing as McGee and Chandler, but better. Honestly, he is someone we can use and we would be so dangerous if we did get him; even with the incompetency in Luke Walton's coaching. |

TRANSLATION: Lebron James wants older vets on HIS team, so we got rid of Zu to appease him. Also, McGee was acting stranger than usual, having hissy fits over losing playing time to Zu, so as to keep our vets from burning down the Laker room, Zu had to go. |

| Feels like we're back at square one at the start of the season, with centers lighting us up like a christmas tree. This trade hurt the team. |

Skip said this will go down as one of the worst trades in NBA history 
I don't know to that extent, but it is the worst trade this FO made. I'm coming from the perspective of trading a player away that gave us exactly what we're missing now and trying to replace on the buyout market. Not the fact the he was better than Dlo or anything.
