From Zach Lowe;
LAL now at point where even trading Lou and stretching Swaggy doesn't get them double-max space next summer. Even if they give 1st rd pick
The Lakers were never getting 2 max players. That's the pipe dream they've been chasing for 4 years. If they didn't spend any money and struck out next year, zach Lowe would be the same guy writing about how they should've went after 2nd tier players.

Besides KD/Bron and a maybe a few others...EVERYONE is being overpaid. Where you been homeboy?

Al jefferson 10 mil
Ish smith 7 mil

Every gm aint stupid

And again, its only day 2

There will be PLENTY of bargains over the next few weeks. But the lakers being the desperate suckers that they are threw huge money on old injury prone washed up roleplayers that nobody wanted

If ingram and russell turn into stars, lakers woulda been in a position to say "hey, weve got 2 young stars and cap space to add 2 more all stars, we could have the most talented squad in the league"

They gave that up for mozgov and deng :dead:

Worst offseason for any team in recent memory. I cant think of anything worse

I'd rather go home alone than leave the club with an ugly fat chick. Lakers obviously dont feel the same. Everybody dont have standards. :manny:

The Haters and media will project any narrative to fit their agenda.
