What's up, y'all. Been a minute. lol


So glad Westbrook is gone. What a complete fcuking mess that dude is. Can't believe they actually made a move and got a legit haul for him. Currently sitting 5 games out of the #4 spot in the west. I don't know how that's possible with how horrible they've been playing, but fcukin A. Let's do this.

Westbrook wasn't the problem. He gotta raw deal from the fans.

I hated to see Westbrook go, but he just didn't fit in.
I'm excited how we drastically improve our 3pt shooting
Vanderbilt is borderline elite defender for me. This dude has the size and speed to produce on both side of the ball. Sometimes he falls asleep, but he recovers pretty quick. I know Darvin Hamm is happy about V.

Pelinka dealings and wheeling. TB did really well in AD's absence but it's clear that he'd be cooked in the games that are must wins. Opens up minutes for Wenyan and Vando - who are better defenders.

Let's see what Pelinka does with these 2nds and 2029 first. Read they're talking to Nets for a wing. Would love to get starting caliber 3&D wing. Finney-Smith will be ideal.

Damien Jones was traded to Utah...another solid move bc he was on the books for next year. Pelinka fleecing Ainge is something I never saw coming.
Love the Mo Bamba pickup for Pat Bev. Hopefully - that's the end of 3 guard lineups. I'd have liked them to add a SF but excellent 2 days of moves from the Lakers.


lol

They still have ammunition in the summer. Have 2023 1st + 2029 unprotect 1st + swaps in 2026 + 2028 + bunch of young players on the roster.

Now, stay healthy!

I'm not sure Rob could've done a better job before the deadline. To get all that and only give up what he did is amazing.

...and here's the perfect buyout candidate for Lakers.

Mo Bamba just trips me out. I don't understand why this dude isn't a double double guy every game.
