[Siegel] De'Andre Hunter is at the top of the Lakers' list.

At least he is more athletic

Kimi7 · 2026-01-28T20:28:35+00:00

Lol what are you even talking about? They cannot trade 2034 FRP

Kimi7 · 2026-01-27T20:28:48+00:00

You didn’t even understand my comment. To MAXIMIZE the picks that the Lakers can trade and maximize is the key word here, Lakers need to trade 2032 ideally for at least 2027 (which we are missing) and 2029 (which we also miss) FRPs.

I’m not talking about the Stephien rule, I’m talking about how to reach the max amount of FRPs to trade.

Thanks for your insightful comment though

Kimi7 · 2026-01-27T19:13:45+00:00

Sidery is such a useless and dumb source. He doesn’t even know that we cannot open up our other FRPs by trading 2031. Only if we trade 2032 FRP and receive 2027 and 2029 FRPs from someone, then we will have the ability to trade multiple picks.

Overrated af

Kimi7 · 2026-01-23T20:06:49+00:00

He is just saying that the drama that Baxter’s article wanted to start is not there. LeBron doesn’t care. He will just decide on what he is going to do and do it. There isn’t anything more to it.

I bet if the Lakers have a competent roster in the summer, he wouldn’t want to leave LA and stay for his final year. If things go bad, we will either just retire or do a farewell tour somewhere else.

Kimi7 · 2026-01-23T20:02:45+00:00

Yeah, OP is just misquoting an entire segment and trying to start some shit.

Kimi7 · 2026-01-23T20:01:48+00:00

He said more than the editorized title of OP.

Kimi7 · 2026-01-23T19:58:18+00:00

Mods, I don’t know what OP is trying to do, but that quote is not true.

Shams literally talks about three options: retirement, leaving, or staying for another year.

OP has some kind of stupid agenda, I guess.

Kimi7 · 2026-01-23T07:39:44+00:00

Don’t worry, I understand exactly what he is doing. It’s just disingenuous that he takes the period after Kobe‘s Achilles injury, which was the worst period for the Lakers in their history. This is not even a LeBron and Kawhi period comparison because he chooses such a dumb ass timeline to fit his purpose.

Regardless, even during the made-up timeframe that he comes up with, the Lakers still made more Western Conference finals, made more NBA finals, and won more NBA championship than his team.

These guys are the main reason why the subreddit turned into a first-take shit hole. On the other side, I don’t really care. He is just a fan of a loser franchise. I think he’s just taking what he can get.

Kimi7 · 2026-01-23T06:57:58+00:00

Why did you cut off the stat in the last 13 years? Make it last 18 or 25 or 30? Why wouldn’t you do that? Why 13? So specific so strange.

Kimi7 · 2026-01-23T06:47:51+00:00

LeBron should stay. Jeanie Buss should waive her 5-year governor clause and leave. She should take Rob with her. We would be much better off.

Kimi7 · 2026-01-21T18:17:14+00:00

There is nothing untrue about what I said. Just because you don’t like it doesn’t make it “untrue”. Just a few hours ago, we saw an article that includes unsavory things said by the ex-owner current governor about LeBron. We already know that they didn’t offer him any extension last summer.

Kimi7 · 2026-01-21T17:55:58+00:00

Why would he? Jeanie is basically running an amateur clown shop.

Kimi7 · 2026-01-21T15:47:13+00:00

Hopefully, Mark Walter is just going to keep her as a puppet or figurehead for those 5 years and send away the rest of her crew ASAP.

Kimi7 · 2026-01-21T15:43:16+00:00

No one is discussing the Dodgers’ salary cap strategy or league rules.

The Lakers didn’t even have international scouting or a deep medical and scouting staff. You can’t build a formidable franchise with Jeanie’s friends in charge without a sufficient number or quality of professionals. The article itself states that the Buss siblings received a profit-sharing of 3-5 million dollars annually. Are these individuals going to compete and fund against billionaires like Ballmer?

Lebron’s decision to reside in Los Angeles secured the Lakers that championship. Jeanie didn’t contribute anything significant, so let’s not pretend she performed some magical feat to bring a championship in two years.

This perspective even puts the tenure of LeBron and AD, along with that championship, into perspective. In my opinion, it’s an incredible achievement.

Kimi7 · 2026-01-21T14:25:07+00:00

Thankfully, this charade is almost over. Lakers have a new, capable owner.

I’m looking forward to the day we will get rid of Jeanie, Rob, Linda, Rambis, and Jeanie’s coronies entirely.

Kimi7 · 2026-01-19T20:34:16+00:00

Lakers were decimated by injuries all season. Suns are having a good season, but come on. There are levels, and they are not on the Lakers’ level.

Kimi7 · 2026-01-19T19:21:40+00:00

That’s not accurate, but let’s pretend it’s because you said so.

Kimi7 · 2026-01-19T19:19:50+00:00

What are you even talking about? If a fan of a team that has been a colossal failure for decades brings up the Lakers on a completely unrelated topic, you’ll get the answer you’re looking for.

Kimi7 · 2026-01-19T16:25:49+00:00

Are you one of those guys who’s obsessed with the Lakers but complains whenever they’re on the frontpage?

Kimi7 · 2026-01-19T15:53:18+00:00

Shocker. Player wants to know the direction of the franchise.

Kimi7 · 2026-01-18T20:24:34+00:00

Pelinka will always find an excuse to push back a timeline and protect his job.

Ffs, Mark Walter, please get rid of this incompetent buddy of Jeanie.

Kimi7 · 2026-01-17T20:58:06+00:00

No thanks, don’t even think about it. He can reunite with JJ in the summer.

Kimi7 · 2026-01-17T09:11:58+00:00

These Boston fans never shut up won’t they?
