During these 16 games:
1. Blew a 17 pt. lead vs Pacers with 9 minutes to go
2. AD missed a FT to ice the game in regulation against Sixers
3. AD missed both FTs to ice the game in regulation against Celtics [Lakers were up by double digits with couple minutes left in the game]
All 3 of those games should have been wins if Lakers didn't pull a Pete Carroll in Superbowl 49. That'd be 13-3 in last 16 games with AD missing 2 games bc of flu (both losses).

I need this to happen soon. One protected top 10 pick to each team. Rozier nice in case we lose lonnie, bojan nice forward that can space the floor. PJ and oubre expiring contracts that can be resigned. @JeanieBuss #Lakers lakers trade pic.twitter.com/2a8n3Jkqd1

I'm not eating that Terry Rozier contract. Hornets can keep that. Rather just keep Westbrook and have 30m in cap space this summer. You like Rozier getting paid $90m over the next 4 years? Lol

Lakers don't have Haliburton to move Rozier's contract in a year or two.

Looks like you'll be finding out if that's true or not for the foreseeable future.

I think Pelinka has been subpar last 2 offseasons and I can't believe he got an extension lol. I honestly have no idea what they are planning to do - or if they even have a plan. Everything screams like they don't want to spend more money. Who really knows. Do think they should trade AD and Bron this summer if they don't plan to field a competitive team.
It's unfortunate that Lakers are being run like a mom&pop store by the Buss family when they should be run like a $7B company.

Keep playing this hard. Dennis the Menace and Thomas Bryant have been amazing over the last few games. Westbrook is playing well consistently.
Need AD back soon.

Lebron and Westbrook have figured out how to play alongside each other. Hope Lakers make a move or two and get shooting around them.
