same has to be said about Ben Simmons when he walks onto the court
New Album & The Beginning of Basketball Season
- Thread starter Ron Party
- Start date
Wall, Irving, Kemba, these 'top' point guard have some strange problems that teams who signed them to big contracts did not envision. Kemba, after moving from the Hornets to the Celtics, was an All-Star that season with the C's , then suddenly cannot shoot the ball, was flipped to the Thunder, who flipped him to NY where he didn't want to play if he didn't start the game, and now off to Detroit, and who knows, will sit in the bench and collect his $30m. Welcome to the club.

Time will tell. Not sure about Wall signing.
As a Clippers fan hope he does well but he hasn't played much in 2 years.
Maybe they wanted a guy to keep KL company in their "free time"

Hi Mike. Great to hear from you again. I hope things are going well. Wishing good luck to your Clippers. As for lakers it’ll be a decade before they have a winning team.

Isn't Gary Payton II staying with the Warriors?
And isn't Jack LaVine not also a free agent? Great player, always fun to watch him.
I always liked Victor Oladipo. Great team player.

Hmm. I see you forgot Carmelo Anthony I wonder if Lakers will put him out to pasture or pull a Pelinka and re-sign him
Steve,
Melo was a 'banana boat' hire. JR Smith on his last leg was a 'friendship' hire. Westbrook was a 'star power' hire. What else is next. A Kyrie trade will be the 'you hit the big 3 point shot'' hire.

Blunt and truthful. He has to say the same thing to Ben Simmons too. Imagine, the Nets have 2 'lazy' guys, for the lack of a better word. Makes Allen Iverson look like a role model.I love Stephen A

I still can't imagine how LeBron is going to make the script real, to play with Bronnie. Like he has the power to take out Bronnie from the team that drafted him (assuming the kids gets drafted) and make the Lakers (assuming he is still there in 2 years time) trade for Bronnie. That is really a tall order. And what if Bronnie gets drafted in the second round, like 56th pick, will he even see the hardcourt or the G-league?
Just like Kyrie, he's not fool to turn down such a big amount.Happy days are here again for the Lakers......
