Is it me, or have you been in the Laker threads for more than ONE season?????
You know how it works here, hypothetical trade talks 365 days a year with the Laker gang

There's just no logical reason to trade a player after only one year in the league.
I just can't wrap my head around it

The reaction in here when Randle has a good game is the same as when Nance has a bad game. Crickets

That's because Randle was a lottery pick and wether he or his fans like it or not the expectations will always be high for him. Especially when people don't see that much improvement in his game from a year ago when he had a full season and he's still making the same mistakes nightly.
Nance Jr. was a late 1st rounder and is a journey man type player. A lot of people like him because you can clearly see the hustle & energy in his game. Also with him people notice the impovements in his game where he's gotten better with his jumper and mid range shots in his game.

I think randle would be better off the bench and let Lance take over the starting PF postion
Randle was a D-league player off the bench last year. When he was reinserted into the starting lineup, he was a great rebounder if not a decent starter. I'm not saying Nance isn't a better starter, but considering the drop off we've seen from Randle off the bench compared to what Nance will add as a starter, I'm not sure it's worth it.

Exactly.
In my opinion, his ceiling isn't very high and even if he maximizes his potential, he still doesn't fit with Brandon and DLo.
I haven't talked about trading him simply because I don't think he has much value. If he could net a starting caliber player I would trade him without hesitation.
The Hornets traded Vonleh for Nic Batum, who do you think won that deal??
I understand letting guys develop, but there are a lot of holes in Randle's game and I don't think he can fix all of them.

Eh Randle doesn't do it for me but can't trade dude right now he doesn't hold much value.
I know a lot of ya'll listen to ESPN LA 710 but did ya'll know Mason's dad passed away? Haven't listened in about two weeks (on vacation) and heard Ireland mention something about his dad on the show today

It was! Anyone who thinks they like basketball, if they watch the last 3 minutes and are NOT entertained, they actually DO NOT like basketball.
The 2 teams KNEW they could NOT miss, that every shot was crucial. The star players made star plays. Rebounding, a crucial inbound steal...
... the right team winning.

Cook had that legendary 44 mm vertical and that 3 pointer that sent the wizards game at Staples to overtime

Finally... I'm live is slowing back down a bit.
Teaching And coaching HS while also having a newborn is indeed a lot, I miss my NT Laker fan.
Missed y'all, even E and CP, who I'm sure is too busy with his Cubs induced anxiety
