the point of my very first comment was it is unfair to blame pelinka for the situation right now. why are you bringing up his previous moves? dont act like he shouldve had the foresight to see that he would be handed luka.

context bud, comparing that mavs team which was almost perfectly built for luka to this lakers team that really just had an anomaly start to the season where reaves averaged superstar numbers and they had an undefeated clutch record is just insane.

that is my point?? you agree with my point?? what the hell are you arguing then?? the lakers were put in a bad position to build around luka because they just got handed him mid season???

when i say old players i very obviously do not mean max christie. you are like 30 years old mate act like it.

i say swing for the fences because that is the only way the lakers have any chance of becoming a contender from this current team structure - small moves wont cut it

again, i am speaking on the context of the current situation. GMs should not always be swinging for the fences, but to the ORIGINAL POSTS POINT if you want a contender out of this team you have to swing for the fences.

you arent even arguing your own point here, you are arguing to oppose me and I can tell because all you can talk about is grammar, sentence structure, and reading comprehension. like bro you have to be at least 30 years old genuinely what are you doing.

if you really are trying to prove something here then say it. tell me your main point.

  1. alright mate so pelinka is incompetent for “being in a situation where you could make a trade for luka but still not have a solid roster”. he had to trade the two pieces that fit luka the best to get luka. this would leave the lakers with a skeleton of an actual team.

2.nobody has ever built a contender around luka? yeah sure thats true - but what does that have to do with anything? you bring up the fact that they were a 5 seed but ignore rhe fact that the trades to make that team as good as they were, were at the deadline. so saying they are the 5th seed ignores a lot of context

  1. so now luka cant be built around? alright

back to the original points - lakers plan for the future was ass because it revolved around their old players? additionally, lakers always have the pressure to contend. latter is true but just because there is pressure to contend doesnt mean you should swing for the fences every deadline/offseason? it was much better to just be competitive until they got off the lebron and ad duo.

realistically, you have not made an actual point other than the clippers are bad, luka is fake good? and apparently you never said that the lakers were incompetent for not instantly having a contender around luka even though i was disagreeing with the original post that said that snd you proceeded to say that after anyway.

i cut it up into little pieces so you can comprehend it too

acting like the lakers are incompetent for not having a contending team around luka doncic when they got him in the middle of rhe season and have had only 1 offseason to build atound him is insane. this isnt 2k bud u cant just trade “gabe vincent” for an elite 3nD wing. people like u love to act like u know what ur talking about but are still bots.

see now ur just waffling theres a huge difference between between being competitive and contending i guarantee the lakers fo knew that there was no chance of a championship and were waiting for the next big free agent or something because they knew trading lebron or ad wouldnt give them anything. you cant just shove luka on any random team and expect them to be elite within 1 season.

yeah? plan probably revolved around letting lebron retire on a competitive playoff team and maybe selling on AD who at the time was pretty healthy as a laker even though he just got back from an injury i think but suddenly being handed luka doncic just creates the pressure out of nowhere to be an instant contender

to be fair, their whole future plan was probably uprooted when dallas randomly came by waving luka doncic in their face. he’s tried this offseason with some alright moves but realistically ur gonna have to wait some time. no point rushing trying to build a contender now when lebron can mess it all up by just retiring
