there it is. three-point attempt #100 of the season for the Lakers is a miss by Anthony Davis, which Nurkic didnt even bother contesting, which moves the season sample size to 20-100 (20.0%)
dam and i thought adding russ to a group who already couldn't shoot was gonna work
Yeah, I think the time has time to cut their losses and move on from the Lebron takeover. They almost certainly are not winning anything this year, and Lebron still has quite bit of value to a contender. Force somebody to take RwB in the deal, get your picks back (or better maybe), free up cap space and start building a team again.
LeBron James is ineligible to be traded during the upcoming 2022-23 season because the second year of his extension exceeds a 5% raise. The Lakers could have north of $20 million in salary-cap space in the 2023 offseason and would have the ability to sign a third max contract player in the 2024 offseason
oh yeah for sure, occam's razor is that kyrie has spent like a decade being a flat-earther, anivaxxer, and now antisemitic so that he could somehow force a trade to the lakers in the year of our lord 2022. i'm sure that the nets are absolutely itching to trade him for a guy making $10m more who's been a negative player for at least 2 years, and that kyrie will be welcomed with open arms in los angeles. it's so obvious
i could see him signing there as a free agent next summer though
