Who did we get for Powell?
We got Justise, Keon, a second round pick and not another fucking thing. Oh and don't forget RoCo, dude hasn't played tonight but he has given them 16 minutes per game over 48 games this season, he's close to 40% from three, averaging 3.5 boards, 1.2 assists, .7 blocks and .8 steals in those 16 minutes... nice luxury to have.

Yeah Roco is part of that depth they have. He will play at times this series for sure.

Did we saved Jody some money after the trade? It’s all about the money

I think, given all of the other trades that Joe has made make sense, that either Joe panicked on his first move or much more likely he had pressure from ownership to make the move. Maybe just cut the salaries however you can and get it done now or something weirder like the Microsoft connection. Regardless he hasn't made one move since then that has been a bad one, so for me his track record is pretty damn good. Obviously all of the moves he's made have been small and about acquiring assets and not building a quality team, so we have to wait and see if he's capable of that.
 
Clippers get a guy off waivers who gave them 2 clutch FTs and a great defensive stop.

That trade can never be justified (or is that justicefied?)
 
RUSSELL WESTBROOK IS A GOD AMONG MORTALS! HE WALKS ON WATER! THE MOST AMAZING 3-19 GAME IN THE HISTORY OF BASKETBALL!!! Fuck your efficiency numbers you basement full of nerds!!!

I've never seen a guy defend a dude who put him on blast in a Subway before. Lmao.
 
You see the video that just leaked!!?? Russ tried to fight some fan who was talking shit to him in a VIP room! What a fool!
 
C'Mon guys....a #2 gets spanked by a lowly #7 at HOME and nobody is talking about this on here. How come?

These athletes who have the world by its balls, yet get so triggered by a fan running his mouth. It’s something fans have always done. Not sure why the players these days are so soft.

I mean unless the shit the fan was saying really crossed the line. They have millions of reasons why they shouldn’t have thin skin.

Totally agree.

people have talked about it in this thread. They just aren't obsessed with the fucking lakers like you are
 
Ran into Chris Haynes in the back hallway after the game. Caught up and he said we should expect some big moves in RipCity this summer.

Oh I'm not obsessed. I love basketball and the playoffs. Also love underdogs winning when they definitely shouldn't. I didn't see anybody mention this upset.

Did he mention if those moves were our superstar being shipped out or another star or stars being shipped in?

I didn't think it was an upset. Memphis hasn't been the same team for while. The Lakers caught a break winning the play-in game against Minnesota and not having to face Denver. No Adams No Clarke, Ja suspended, Brooks suspended...... this team is close to imploding.

Wow, so they didn't do anything good or earned anything? You are better than that. According to this place they are a fucking horrible team, I was impressed such a bad team won on the road being such underdogs is all I'm saying.
