I'm gonna be front and center when Mitch tries to explain this Jordan Hill shyt. I just wanna know. Why nine?
Cause Pau was being greedy. Fuk him

:camby:
Prior to today, LAL offered Pau Gasol two deals: 2 years, $23 mill and 3 years, $29 mill per league source. He turned down both offers.

Pau not taking that 11.5, I'm cool with us not going past that. But to give him 9 is disrespectful, to Pau, to me, and to anyone who knows basketball.

Probably because a lot of teams are gunning for centers out there but did J Hill do all that well at center last year? I can't remember.
Don't matter. You just don't give Jordan Hill nine.

This why I wanna hear Mitch reasoning on this. Cause nothing y'all saying, or nothing I can think of makes this make sense. Notice I haven't said a word about Swag. That makes sense, and is probably below market value. It's not that I didnt want Jordan Hill, he's one of my favorite Lakers. I can't get over this number, and what could've been done with it. I feel like we panicked for NO fukkING REASON. I can at least understand why Miami gave Bosh that panic max. nikkas let Jordan Hill completely dismantle our chances at even possibly getting an impact player.

6 and I don't say shyt. 9 should get you at least a starter, and he's not that on any good team. That's my thing too, it just don't seem like a Laker move. This some Sacremento shyt. I was just bragging to my coworker how we don't sit on our ass, while not doing overly dumb shyt as far as player transactions. Mitch made me look dumb today.
