I'm really hoping for some decent mid-season trades.. good thing Kupchak is still there hoping he can pull a Gasol-esque trade

Players I have no clue about: Jordan Clarkson, Ryan Kelley, Ronnie Price, Julius Randle, Roscoe Smith, Jeremy Tyler... who the hell are these guys??

Haven't watched the league or NCAA in a while, rings a bell but that's what the internets (ISH) is for... also the Lakers have 19 players on their roster

Randle, awesome. Clarkson, probably awesome. Kelly, super nerd.

Randle has looked like trash, IMO. Seriously, no game.

Hope it changes.

Actually, I do. I have watched every game. Randle is out of control and he can't finish around the rim, SO FAR. He can obviously improve, but I am speaking about right now. All he does is put his head and shoulders down, run into the defender, and throw up highly contested bricks.

Julius Randle was our first round pick this season, Ryan Kelly has been with us since last season, a stretch four.

Ronnie Price is probably there to back up Lin and Nash, been in the league for some time, may get cut.

Clarkson is another rookie, drafted late in the 2nd, I like him.

No freaking idea who roscoe smith and jeremy tyler is.

Randle will fit in with the rest of the rubbish on that team. He was good in college like every other NBA player was when they were in college.

You've never watched Randle in your life. :roll:

Players I don't know:

Keith Appling, Jabari Brown and Roscoe Smith. I heard the name Jabari Brown once in a Lakers article but don't remember the context.

I doubt any of them will make the roster along with with Jeremy Tyler and Ronnie Price. I think Clarkson will be in and out of the D-League depending on Nash's health

Are y'all seriously acting like Randle has been good so far? He couldn't even dominate summer league.

This is most appreciated. Yes.

I was a Lakers fan for 45 years. From Chamberlain & West & Goodrich glory, through Showtime all the way to Shaq & Kobe and Rick Fox and Derek Fisher... right up to Kobe & Pau.

Until this heinous day, when my love for the team died, and I divorced her instantly.

And since that day, the Lakers fortunes have gone just like this:

May they long fall!!

So you stopped supporting a team you supported for 45 years because one dumbass who isn't even a Laker anymore committed a stupid flagrant? WHo do you support now?

That's correct. That was the cheapest shot I ever saw and I've seen a lot of them. That game was far out of reach. Bynum should have been banned.

I'm a free agent now.

I've always loved centers so I'm a Pekovic stan atm.

Ryan Kelly is one of the ugliest players in the game, he's like a white Reggie Jackson.
