Not only did we trade for Russ but we gave up a pick in that deal and now we will have to give up another 1st round pick just to get rid of him. We are gonna be a 30 win team in 2027 with nothing to gain:flabbynsick:

I honestly feel bad for Russ. This roster is so horribly constructed for his playstyle. We did anyone involved think bringing him in was a good idea? The Lakers gotta have the most antiquated FO outside the Pacers
I felt the same way but missing open layups and bricking when no one is 10 feet near you has less to do with roster construction and more to do with him. He’s playing the same way he always has but he’s declining physically and his IQ is lowering.

Nobody thought it was a good idea except Bron, and Jeanie is too soft to regulate. Jim Buss would've NEVER allowed this to happen

Imagine if Bron played it out like he said he would...

Lonzo
Ingram
Bron
Kuz
Bryant

Hart
Clarkson
Zubac
:jbhmm:

That team never wins a chip.

The AD trade was the correct decision. Even moves the year after were fine, the Lakers were just killed with injuries.

The Westbrook trade may be the worst GM decision ever made. Unless AD comes back playing at peak levels (extremely unlikely) this team's championship window is closed.
