NEW -> Contingent Buyer Assistance Program
Lakers pushing hard to get Paul George in a trade before the deadline.  Hope they get rid of Randle and not Russell.

mozgov is gone, but so is russell for b. lopez and 27th pick supposedly

Would Jerry West made that trade probably not.

This is a joke. Big time

I'd say it's a so so trade.  Bad side.. we lose Deangelo .  Plus side, added another pick.. upgraded Mosgov.. and set the stage for a big summer next year.

Biggest mistake that lakers didn't do this off season is go after Jerry West

I heard he was brought in to get Lebron.  wow.. if he does that then he is the king of basketball moves.

Lakers are going to be set next year.. still missing one piece though. 

F - Ingram
F - Randle
C - Zubac/Lopez if he stays
G - PG
G - Ball

I hope we can move randle for someone else.

it's not but better than awful.  As a team trying to get back to winning, you have to correct old mistakes.  Lakers made two.. now one is left.  Now picture this!

Ingram, Randle, Boogie, PG, Ball.  woweeeee!  Again, i hope we can move randle.

Maybe I'm just use to getting the better end of the trade and great draft picks. (such as: Paul Gasol trade, Clarkson and Zunac 2nd round, Nance late first round pick)

I know I talked about Mitch previously, but I appreciated his talent to find value in the draft. This is a rumor that I heard and you may have heard also. The Lakers almost traded for Boogie before this past All-star game.

 
I hope this is not a sign of a train wreck. (I just heard the other Laker trade rumor)
Are they going to give up all their young talent?

 
I'm okay with this. Not excited, but I get it. My biggest beef is that you typically wait to salary dump til the absolute last minute (think Bogut). We're not competing for a championship next year, so dumping Moz' contract was not necessary at all today. Next year his salary would cost much less to dump, and then the year after that, his big expiring contract would actually have value.

Lakers can make this right by me by staying bold. Don't take the safe pick at # 2 Ball. I'll be very happy to have him considering this pick was more likely lost than kept a few weeks ago. But let's go with the extremely high upside of Fox.

I'm good with either guy.

Ball fits better with Magic's vision though.
