  1. You hate this direction? Any decent player will be throwing themselves at the Lakers for pennies on the dollar to play for the Lakers especially if the get Leonard. I know LeBron is getting old but having LeBron locked in for 3 years is not bad. I really don’t see a direction the Lakers could have taken that gave them better odds of contending in the next 3 years. They are not at all good enough right now but they got the most important part If they could pull it off they could’ve ended up with any combination of the guys i mentioned for only money the next 2 offseason and still kept the young guys to have a really complete team with better longevity instead of shorting a window by trading most off to get Kwahi now. Yeah, in an ideal world, you have LeBron this year, bring back Randle and see how the young guys progress. Then bring in another free agent next year. Not sure if LeBron is okay essentially punting on winning a title next year (he should be because they aren’t beating the Warriors next year anyway).
  2. Right, but they aren’t winning this year anyways and it makes the team thinner for a few years if they just wait. well we'll see what they have to give up either this offseason or at some point midseason if kawhi sticks to his guns about wanting to play in LA...i think they could end up with leonard without having to give up ingram and kuzma. and lebron/kawhi/filler is good to be enough to make a serious run at golden state Ingram is the main one I don’t want to give up. I thought he made huge strides last year being able to get to the rim and with his shooting.
  3. Tough few days for rmack. He’ll just complain about the pitching.
  4. Not as currently constructed. As it is, they’ll probably win 45-50 next year. But they’re also probably not done.
  5. Yes they got rid of triple jeopardy as long as it's a play on the ball. It's a yellow plus penalty. Good to know. Didn't know if that was an EPL specific rule or a FIFA rule.
  6. Yes they got rid of triple jeopardy as long as it's a play on the ball. It's a yellow plus penalty. Good to know. Didn't know if that was an EPL specific rule or a FIFA rule.
  7. And the Cards are within one in the 7th.
  8. Did they get rid of the double jeopardy in the World Cup? I know they did in the EPL so as long as you're making a play on the ball, you can't get a red card and give up a PK. Because that should have been a red for denial of a goal scoring opp.
  9. 6, by the 1929 New York Giants. 5 teams have done it in 5 straight games.
  10. I think they said 9th slam of the year. According to baseball almanac, 14 is the record for a season by the 2006 Indians and 2000 A's. NL Record is 12 by the 1997 Braves and 2000 Cards.
  11. I think they said 9th slam of the year.
  12. Reds just hit another grand slam. Up 8-0 in the 6th. 3-0 Braves in the top of the 6th.
  13. Good thing we’re off tomorrow and Thursday since the pen could use a break. Lester will be at least at 50 through 2.
  14. Our pitchers are aware they don’t have to give up early runs, right?
  15. So we’ll get a finalist on the right side of the bracket that’s either never been in a final or hasn’t been in one since 1966 (England) or 1958 (Sweden).
  16. Sorry Piqué. That wasn’t part of your jump. Not when your other arm came down as did the arms of Ramos.
  17. I'm terrified they're going to get fleeced by the Spurs in the trade because they're scared of the same thing happening with Leonard that happened with Paul George. I really wanted LeBron and George because they would have kept all the young guys. LeBron and Kawhi this year means they probably keep Lonzo and fill out the team with a bunch of vets. Now they're going to trade for Leonard and sell out for a three year run.
  18. Half expecting some South Korea vs Spain and Italy type referee shenanigans in Spain-Russia today.
  19. Markakis just hit a slam. 7-0 Braves over the Cards in the 5th.
