What a difference a year makes

Did not see this coming at all, you'd think with all the leaks out there that PG wanting out would have been reported on already.

 

[Hammettf2b]

This rivalry is going to be something. First Paul George dismisses the Lakers now Kawhi does the same and now their on the same team in the same building

OKC has really never had to rebuild it will be interesting to see how they react to it.

 

[The Night King]

Dammit. At least the Lakers and clippers may finally have an actual rivalry and the league will have more parity than ever. But f*** you Kawhi for taking so long.

I wonder how Westbrook is feeling right now...

 

[Fighter]

I feel bad for OKC, window has closed and a rebuild looms. How long before Russ asks a trade as well?

 

[Ivan13]

Very happy about this, he and Leonard defending the wing? Lordy!

That team is going to be an absolute God damn wall defensively between George, Kawhi and Beverley. Holy crap.

This is great on so many levels. Lakers fans are mad as hell because they got spurned by George a couple years ago, only from him to end up right across the hallway anyways. Not to mention they sat on their cap space all week because they thought they had a big name wrapped up.

Even Westbrick gets trolled in the fun. He can now statpad all he wants because that team is going absolutely nowhere, and neither is he with his contract

 

[Ivan13]

Defensive potential of this team is through the roof, then sweet Lou and Harell off the bench to score on the 2nd unit.

Zubac has been working on his 3 pointer and there are videos of him hitting one after another, he took Magic’s words to heart and is now working on one of his drawbacks.

Scary good team.

Clippers don't have any good passers.

Westbrook about to bounce from OKC

Amazing haul for OKC but no brainer for the Clips. While technically it’s the biggest package ever traded for a player (more than AD because frankly I like SGA better than Ingram or Ball and there are even more picks) - the reality is that huge package was traded for two superstars, not one. In that lens, it’s an amazing deal for the Clips. And they’ve built up so much depth lately that unlike the Lakers, they still have an awesome group of support depth to surround their two studs.

The Lakers biggest mistake this past decade and the one that keeps haunting them time and time again is not getting West back into the fold. What he has done for the Lakers two Cali rivals is downright amazing and the Logo wanted to come back to the Lakers before he went to the Clippers and Jeannie Bus and Magic totally f-ed it up.

Jeannie Bus, Pelinka (plus Magic still lingering being Magic) and Vogel/Kidd versus Balmer, West and Doc.
