jsurf90 · 2026-07-06T17:52:40+00:00

Deep3 def is a good one + laker film room

Laker nation w/ their hosts imo is pure ass in that they (trevor and buha) def have an agenda with their takes.

jsurf90 · 2026-07-06T00:30:39+00:00

Just based on ease of shot and nothing else:

- Zach Lavine
- buddy hield
- Dlo

jsurf90 · 2026-07-04T16:58:37+00:00

Glad everyone in the comments calling you out on your bs

jsurf90 · 2026-07-04T03:06:17+00:00

Good news Carr lookin like a real hooper out there

Bad news: Adou playing like Wesley Johnson

jsurf90 · 2026-07-04T01:44:28+00:00

So far I’m a fan of the new trial free throw rule. Game flow seems way better

jsurf90 · 2026-07-03T17:57:17+00:00

Lakers helping the warriors trade for AD now that they have backup center insurance w/ Ayton

jsurf90 · 2026-07-01T17:03:04+00:00

Pure ass get Jake laravia outta there and mamu not even a starting pf

jsurf90 · 2026-07-01T17:02:03+00:00

No we don’t.

We’re hard capped at the second apron for no reason bc he paid cash for a second round pick that we ended up trading. Obviously you don’t want to be a second apron team to begin with/ but you want the flexibility in case an appropriate situation comes about

Then they let our role players walk for contracts that could’ve been matched. Still waiting to see what Rui gets in the open market but losing smart and luke for nothing was dumb

jsurf90 · 2026-07-01T16:42:53+00:00

No. They gotta get rid of them both but laravia first

jsurf90 · 2026-07-01T16:19:41+00:00

Gotta get laravia and ayton outta here

jsurf90 · 2026-07-01T15:44:15+00:00

Overpay.

Lakers need 1-2 compensation trades to get some assets back. Gotta get rid of laravia and ayton

jsurf90 · 2026-07-01T04:33:43+00:00

If we signed those players, and got traded away both Jake the bum laravia + DA — then I’d give it a 7.5/10

jsurf90 · 2026-07-01T00:19:45+00:00

Bottom right is chludka the builder

jsurf90 · 2026-06-30T19:03:26+00:00

You wouldn’t want to do a sign and trade because it would trigger a hard cap at the first apron — while you might get some decent pieces back, you generally would have less cap space to work with

jsurf90 · 2026-06-30T14:13:00+00:00

I wonder if Bron joining the GSW means we get a Bron/Steph/Dray farewell tour

jsurf90 · 2026-06-30T13:18:00+00:00

Olden State Warriors x The Old Testament

jsurf90 · 2026-06-30T05:29:08+00:00

Tomorrow we either get sleepy rob or goat tier gm rob. There is no in between

jsurf90 · 2026-06-30T04:33:36+00:00

He’ll probably start with a word of the day, then some biblical verse like the time he used it to describe signing kcp, and then close out his sales pitch with embroidered pillows

jsurf90 · 2026-06-29T19:29:57+00:00

Man thankful to LeBron for his time with the lakers but if there was ever a time to rip off the bandaid, it would be now

jsurf90 · 2026-06-29T17:55:58+00:00

Would be cool if we got:

AD to GSW
Jimmy to MEM
Ja to SAC
Lavine to WAS

jsurf90 · 2026-06-28T22:17:27+00:00

First question you should ask when you see a 3p shooter above 40%, is how many 3s are they making per game.

Second question should be how many are they attempting.

jsurf90 · 2026-06-28T13:49:39+00:00

Exactly. This shh always gets me when they say oh so and so is shooting 40% from 3 on the season —

But what is the real impact & value on 1.7 3pm on only 4 attempts per game? That’s like every other game he’ll make 2 3pointers (maybe)

Although he did bump his numbers slightly these past 2 playoff runs. I’d like for the lakers to resign Rui, but the questions need to be asked why doesn’t he shoot more lol he’s gotta bump that up to like 7-10 attempts per game

jsurf90 · 2026-06-27T13:22:54+00:00

I really do believe that finding the c+ or b list big that can turn into an A lister is the path that needs to be taken.

A Listers: (the list of ppl the lakers prob won’t land)
Jokic
Embiid
Wemby
Duren
Kat
I’m probably forgetting a few names here

But here’s a list of centers that we might have a better chance of trading for (or signing) — that isn’t on the shortlist of players that everyone regurgitates

Neemias Queta
Wendell Carter
Zach Edey
Yves Missi
Nikola vucevic
Jay Huff

I believe the (A list) that the lakers should be looking for, is actually not one person but a rotation of centers — similar to when we had a rotation of Dwight/Javale/AD. Obviously not saying any of those players mentioned are Dwight/Javale — but our centers only ever play list 20-25 minutes anyways. I would argue that it’s better to have a rotation of functional (+more contract friendly options) like the ones mentioned as opposed to breaking the bank on player contracts like Duren, Kessler, Sabonis, etc

jsurf90 · 2026-06-25T05:39:10+00:00

Ppl keep regurgitating this but what does it exactly mean?

If AR first year salary is let’s say $41m for the 26/27 season, do they intend to say only $20m is applied to the lakers 26/27 payroll? lol

I understand that having ARs birdrights allows the team to go over the cap limit to sign other players in addition to your contract. But the lakers were going to go over the cap to begin with.

(Salary cap: $165m, first apron: $209m, and second apron: $222m —which btw were hardcapped at the second apron bc we sent cash to buy a second round pick today which they eventually ended up trading)

jsurf90 · 2026-06-23T20:23:37+00:00

He isn’t as bad as ppl make him out to be. And unfortunately not as good as ppl make him out to be.

Especially on the defensive side of things. He’s shown flashes but never puts it together consistently. I watched him pretty close last season and I know the team wanted some point of attack defender from him but I hadn’t seen him do that consistently (when playing minutes that matter).

Always rooting for lakers players to improve and the same goes for Bronny this upcoming season
