Coach JJ gunna cook this year fr
How in the hell you need center and you don't even try to get a young center in the draft you don't even sign one for summer league you need more than one center
Lakers needed both Siakam & Anunoby for the past few years…
Padinka is a true idiot and so is Jeannie bust it's so sad
Trade Reeves pls 🙌
Did he say, "Get younger?" Lose Lebron and free up 40 million cap space.
JJ is to inexperienced for our team, he showed this all year. Replace him !!!!!
This guy Is such a clown🤦🏿♂️
damn, lots of people not liking that move, I believe, let him cook.
Rich Paul will bring Yang Hansen to the Lakers to help out GOAT James! Expect the trade with Portland to become reality at the trade deadline. Portland is the NBA's scrapyard team. Yang is the perfect big man for the Lakers.
I hope the Lakers can pickup two centers.
Homie likes making trades at the deadline to use “we didn’t have time to gel,” as an excuse to why the team sucked
Where is the next center?
I hope we don’t come back with the same roster and a center like the draft picks dogs
The hate this man gets is annoying but real ones know what he brings to the table
Rui, Gabe and Klebler for a quality C
All I got to say is DONT TRADE REAVES AND RUI THOSE DOGS RIGHT THERE
Mylesss Turnerrr
Make a move Rob!! 🤦🏾 We gotta overpay for a NEED. We're the Lakers, nobody helpin us w/o helpin them
Rob is a dud
Do whatever it takes to get cam Johnson and Nick Claxton
Trade or get rid of the 40 year-old who can't keep up with players half his age !!! LeBron can't carry a team like he did in his prime but the Lakers are paying him like he still can, those days are gone. LeBron seems to spend most of his time arguing with refs begging for fouls, LeBron is more of a hindrance, they seem to play better without him. The Lakers need to look to the future and build around Doncic and Reaves. Build a young athletic team like OKC and Indiana. The ageing superstar teaming up doesn't work, how many teams have tried this and failed.
It's delusional to hope that Ainge (Hated Boston) will trade Kessler to Rob (Hated Lakers) for anything CLOSE to fair trade value – we need to save our breath on that one – it's a non-stater…
Grab cam whittmore over wiggins, also look at bol bol to go along with other plans at center
Would love them to replace Rob with Bob Meyers
why is a second round pick a big deal in 2025 😂😂 man slow news day for these people
Lebron, you’ve done alot for this league. Please retire after this season. Thank you
We've needed a starting caliber center since the Laker's last championship when Javale and Dwight weren't part of the Lakers anymore.
After 1 year, no center.
After 2 years, no center.
After 3 years, no center.
After 4 years, still none.
WHY ROB???
Rob got us a Bubble ring and Luka Doncic. Put some respect on his name
GET OFF INTERVIEWS AND GO MAKE IT HAPPEN ROB! We lost out on Lonzo just earlier!!! Big guard who can guard, little contract & can shoot. Very little risk & you bring him home. WHAT ARE YOU DOING ROB!!!
Good grief – Thiero is nothing but Hood-Schefino 2.0 !
