Ooooo Weeeee… this trade deadline has been pretty spicy already. Even if only minor deals happen from hear on out, I think it’s been pretty interesting so far!
I continue to hope beyond hope that Terrance Ross or Eric Gordon are not the moves the Lakers make this deadline—especially for THT. I would be okay with Josh Richardson, though, as he has good advanced stats as a “chaser.”
If we can’t get my fairy-tale trade of Kenrich Williams from OKC, then Richardson or even Gary Harris on the buy-out market will suffice.
The Lakers need a defensive-minded guard/wing who can chase. We really miss KCP’s defense in that regard.
Overall, I like the approach the Lakers are taking. They’ve identified a key weakness. Just doesn’t seem like they are any closer to solving it… 🙁
I think they should wait for the buyout market. In that realm they go to the top of the list. In the trade game they're working from such an asset deficit.
I've been waiting to hear your take on Rafa Nadal's Australian Open win and record-setting 21st Grand Slam victory. Where does it rank in the pantheon of tennis achievement? Rafa's comeback from facing three points to go down a double break in the third set (already trailing 0-2 in sets) was jaw-dropping for me.
Someday I will do a whole Greenroom on tennis. But probably not in February at trade deadline time. Can't say I'm a huge Rafa guy but he also doesn't need my stamp of approval.
Lotta Donte DiVincenzo smoke today, Marc. Mixed feelings. If you had to bet do you think he’s still a Buck by 5PM ET on Thursday?
If I had to beat, I would say trade. Don't have a great feel on that one, I'm afraid.

Hey, though, there’s time… 🤞🏽🙌🏽

Gary Harris, it is, then… 😝
Maybe Magic can put in a call to his agent and ask for a favor—one Spartan to another… 🤞🏽🙌🏽
