    I feel like AR's huge 16 assist game was the last nudge to move on from Dlo as he showed that he can be trusted to play and thrive in that role. Realistically the ball is always going to be in either AR or Brons hands so maybe the priority should be to finally get that reliable backup big

      @@lescuyertourisme7328 I think Dlo had more chances than most and even I thought he just needed more time, but after last year playoffs I am convinced he just doesn't have it when the pressure is on. You just can't have those kind of performances in the important games. Had he contributed just a little bit more we beat Denver, every game was so close but he was just not there mentally.

      @@lescuyertourisme7328 I don't mind TO's from your point, Bron has just as many in any given game. It just means that he's aggressive and willing to take chances to create. There is nothing aggressive about D'lo, his style slows the game down and lately he's just been playing lazy. This is a good time to move on from him.

    You're making way too big of a deal about Dorian Finney-Smith's age in the cons. Yes, he's 31 but he was only born in 1993. And guess what, Anthony Davis is also 31 years old. So if AD being 31 doesn't keep you up at night and fearing his decline despite being injury-prone, then I think Dorian Finney-Smith will be just fine.

    I feel like Shake Milton is an underrated two way guard. I only watched his sixers days but he seems like a nice fit. Instead of a backup guard Lakers should go for a big like Nick richards, who is affordable and young and can provide value right now. Maybe Lakerd could even trade two players for him and open a roster spot for a backup guard too.

Boucher is 6’9” with a 7’4” wingspan who can play 3/4 and can shoot. Jalen is a rebounding and defensive beast. Nick is a young, cheap option at the 5. And Bones is a supreme upside talent wasting away with the Clippers. We can use any and all of these guys.

    Dlo isn’t that bad. He just needs the ball in his hands, which AR took the ball this year under JJ scheme. Over the years we have seen that dlo isn’t the type who stand at the corner wait for the ball kind of player. That isn’t where he can be effective. He needs the ball in his hands to run the offense. It’s just not the right fit in this system this year. He helped the team to 2 playoff appearances, he deserves way more credits than anything.

    We have all appreciated having D’Angelo Russell part our team we thought that he was gonna be a great fit once again he did it for a moment or two, but D’Angelo Russell like anybody else got tired of hearing of trade rumors but if D’Angelo Russell would’ve just played like he did like we know he can. He wouldn’t have to worry about that Some days he come out like I’m the Schnick and some games come out like I don’t give a damn what they do to me so D’Angelo as we are Laker fans we wish you the best hoping you do your best. Don’t wind up being bitter, angry and upset. You brought it all upon yourself, but you can change things around by going out there and letting people know that you still got it dude Give your best. Do your best be the best of the best and this will stop happening to you, but when you go out there, pouting mad, acting like a wolf showing that you don’t give a exam then they’ll get rid of you again will be D’Angelo Russell who showed up as a rookie with the Lakers. It was sad and hurtful they got rid of the first time They should’ve never have got rid of you but things happen. You had a great opportunity and you got back with the Lakers, but you pout it and all you have to do is show your talent teams are based on everybody. I don’t understand why sports announcers and dumb people always want to base it on one or two or three never in history have one or two or three have won a championship game is based on allall of the players pulling together and these weak ass coaches who do not know how to play their teams who wants to be a part of a team and I’ll never get in there you couldn’t put me in on garbage time or we lose next. Hell no so D’Angelo we appreciate your time here with us in LA and we wish the best for you, bro.

    It’s been clear for a while that this move was inevitable. D’Angelo Russell’s passive play lately made it obvious-even he seemed to know a trade was coming. While he’s a talented player with solid contributions, he never quite reached the star or superstar level that many hoped for when he entered the league.

    FINALLY Rob, FINALLY! Hated to lose DLo. Such a nice cool person and player, at times an extremely TALENTED ball player. Just not at critical times though. Looking forward to bringing DFS into the mix! I’m certain now that we can cut / trade / sell JHS, WOOD, HAYES, even VANDO. Don’t want that but let’s be honest. Who in this world, when saying to our boss at work, I can’t come in, I can’t deliver what I’m getting paid to do…..oh and by the way, it could be as long as 2-3 Y E A R S 😲, can I STILL get paid??? I know, we know he’s been injured, but it’s been so long, TOO LONG, Lakers probably need to move on. Gabe is in the same boat, but he’s had some solid games since returning from injury. Trouble now is an oblique injury which could last a while, DECADES on the Lakers Team. 😂😂😂. If Rob can manage to get Bruce Brown, we’ll be more capable of challenging other teams in the Wild West. Another is Nick Richards - WAAAAY more affordable! Robert Williams III is too, but we’ve got plenty of our own injuries, thank you very much. Rob should be calling LONNIE WALKER IV, if he hasn’t already. Great kid. JJ, you should play Olivari FULL STOP. 4 year college player, offers way more than Bronny. No offence Bronny.

    I think with Gabe playing better than decent, he might be included on another trade. Rui or Vando might get dealt as well I doubt they’ll have them both still after another trade. It be great if they keep them, I’m still high on Vando his availability is what making him be on the trade block. Maybe waive some unplayable roster spots, there is more talent that is not playing in the league

    A lot of lakers fans trying to pretend they know more than what the lakers GM does. Saying giving up dLo and 3 second round picks jusr for finney smith 😂😂😂. Your dLo cannot do sh*t in playoffs.
    Jimmy Butler 30th over all pick
    Nikola Jokic 41st draft pick
    Finney Smith for only 15mil contract for the rest of this season, that cleans up or saves the Lakers some money just for those 2 round picks which we don't know what the future holds. I don't know if you have an idea how trade works in the NBA. Then I guess I just wasted my time on you. These are role players, definitely an upgrade interns of defense. dLo can rarely give you 20 plus points and can never do defense. Finney Smith can lock down a superstar and also have even played as a center in Brooklyn at 6'7 height.
