Gasol
AD
Bron
Westbrook
these are literally the only players left on the Lakers roster lol
I guess THT is technically there too as a restricted free agent (and possibly the only person on their roster capable of making a perimeter shot)How could you leave out Lola Bunny? NBA fan card revoked!
Huh?
Cousins was the last Kings player to make an all-star team (he made four, two with the Kings and two with the Pelicans) and twice was on the all-NBA 2nd team while in Sacramento. He was in line for a super max contract until he had another meltdown and Vlade dealt him for Buddy and NOP's 1st.
I'm not comparing Boogie to Sengun but you seem to be moving the goalposts a lot in trying to find reasons not to draft him. Which is the only reason I find myself in the odd position of defending him. I've actually been a Jalen Johnson guy since before this last college season even started but all the chatter I'm hearing makes me think some of the red flags are significant. And that's on top of the holes in his actual game.
So I don't know who my favorite pick is at #9. But if it's Sengun I wouldn't be disappointed.
I think the only guys that would really disappoint me would be Giddey, Mitchell or a reach like Trey Murphy.

TRADE: The Cleveland Cavaliers are acquiring Minnesota Timberwolves G Ricky Rubio, a 2022 second-round pick and cash for F Taurean Prince, sources tell ESPN.
And Cousins was basically ousted because Vlade didn't bit the bullet by either removing the coach in his way, or the player in the way of the coach and in the end it imploded. Yeah, fail.

borrrrriiiiiiiiinnnnnnnnnggggggggg
So if I'm following your logic from the previous post, another reason not to draft Sengun is because the new GM might not decide between him and the current coach and things will go badly?
Yeah, I don’t know about that part of him being played.Kinda got played again? I had a feeling the Lakers were using him to get some traction elsewhere. To his credit though, this ALL might have been total BS. Doesn't matter though. This is going to happen with the way the Bogdan deal went down. Having a rep as a total amateur takes time to shrug off.
Buddy …..your not going anywhere but your coming off the bench.
The thing is we can't panic about the Lakers deal falling through and counter by biting on the first offer we get.There should be a deal out there if it's time.
