Greatest GM out there. Amazes me that some Laker fans still give the guy shit. He got us AD and a title, and now flipped AD for Luka fucking Doncic. Unreal.

WTH are they thinking, Luka and LeFraud on the same court together with no Big Man presence (for inside-outside balance on Offense), and zero Defense?? That's a recipe for disaster... hell the Lakers might set the all-time record for most PPG Allowed in a season, now that Davis is gone.

Meanwhile the Mavs picked up (arguably) the best two-way player in the game who is still in his prime, and who will compliment Kyrie, Klay, etc. perfectly.

Mavs fans should be excited... Lakers fans should be scratching their heads.

(PS... Doncic now becomes the 14th future HOF teammate LeFraud will have played alongside during his career; by faaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaar and away more haaaalp than any other player in NBA history.)

:bronfrown:
You just added jet fuel to this conversation.
Naw.. too obvious. No troll I only read the first sentence of his post, realized what a retard take it was, and stopped reading lol
Yes because "Defense" in the eyes of (most) Modern Era fans is meaningless.

Luka and LeFraud on the court together withOUT an elite two-way Big Man = laughable.

You’re missing the bigger picture here… which isn’t surprising cuz you’re a Bulls fan and you people are as dumb as it comes.

Luka is 25 years old. TWENTY FIVE. Never mind LeGOAT who will be retiring or going to another team next season. The Lakers just set themselves up for the next decade by acquiring Luka (health permitting, obviously). They can literally punt this season and it won’t matter… this offseason is when they retool the roster to fit around Luka.

Hope that helps! Enjoy cheering for Zach fucking LaVine :suds:

What "bigger" picture. meathead???

I already acknowledged that the Lakers got a younger version of LeFraud... "empty stats" and zero Defense. Meanwhile they gave up a dominating two-way Big who is still in his prime.

:lol: good luck trying to win when your team is about to allow opponents to drop 120-130 points on their asses every night.

By asking that you literally just proved my point. Your franchise and by extension your fanbase doesn’t understand what winning is. You’re still in here harping on LeGOAT like he even matters anymore. This is Luka’s team now… going forward they’ll be building the team around him. This season is basically a freebie, the real work starts next season.

You’ll get it one day, lil feller.

I’m liking this more and more after a good night’s sleep to let it settle. Mainly, cause I’m thinking Lebron, who normally would need to sign off on any move the Lakers make, was not consulted in these talks and we’re finally starting to see what life post-Lebron is looking like. I knew a superstar would come, but never did i think it’d be Luka.

LFG!

It’s such a lopsided trade for the Lakers that you have people online screaming “COLLUSION! INVESTIGATE THIS!” lol

People thought Shams account got hacked for crying out loud! But here comes ol’ drunko trying to convince us the Lakers got fleeced. :laugh3:

I can’t see how anybody thinks this is bad for the Lakers.
Bron is close to done. Building around an aging AD just doesn’t have long-term legs, no matter how well he’s been playing recently.
I don’t like losing AD, and I don’t like losing Christie. I love getting rid of Hood-Shifino.
Maybe they can move Bron too.

ps - Luka’s mom!

Dude I would’ve given up Davis AND Lebron just for a chance to build around Luka. The fact that we got Luka for AD, Christie and “a” pick? Highway fucking robbery. You just know Cuban is all red faced over this too lol

There's 0 reason to consult a 40 year old....even if he's LeGOAT. And it's an easy conversation to have with him. Dude, you're 40...and as great as you are we have to plan for a team without you soon.

It was a rhetorical question, meathead... of course the idea is to build around Luka once LeFraud retires. DUH... or did you think that I thought the Lakers made this trade to try and win this year?

:L :roll:

Bottom line: The Lakers decided to build around a dominating 1-way perimeter player in his prime (on a team with zero Defense, now that Davis is gone), rather than build around a dominating 2-way Big who is still in his prime.

Whooopie... again, good luck winning when your team is going to be giving up 120-130 points every night.

Yea… cuz Luka and his terrible defense didn’t just make the Finals last season :roll:

How jealous is this drunkard right now? You’d have shit your Depends if the Bulls traded for him, guy.

The Lakers just need to add the right pieces around Luka, and with a little luck from the bball gods they’ll be right back in the mix! It’s a glorious day to be a Lakers fan!

Enjoy reminiscing about your 90s titles when “men were men” or whatever :laugh3:
