And they are finished.

Would need to pretty much sweep the remaining 4 games.

Not happening, with playing Phoenix, Golden State, and Denver on the road

Frank Vogel expected to be fired today.   Raptors coach Nick Nurse is high on their list of replacements.

When Vogel signed it wasn’t the most attractive position, 3 years later nothing has changed. Doubt they’ll get any of the top candidates.

I like the Darvin Ham hire. I like even better that he will be able to assemble his own staff without, reportedly, the Rambii be involved with his coaching meetings and decisions.

So far it's the same BS as last year. Lakers shooting a lot of 3-pointers and missing a lot of three-pointers. They keep doing the exact same thing even though they are terrible at it.

I was about to post an angry comment about the teams performance tonight, and then they went and did that ending…

What a throwback forum this is. What ever happened to Poozy and @xboom28x? I remember Poozy changed his name a few times

Not getting my hopes up and have set my expectations fairly mild for this season.  Play-in tourney is probably best case.  But, I'm intrigued by Troy Brown and Lonnie Walker.  Be fun to see where they are/their impact by midseason.  The inevitable AD and Lebron injuries will determine our success, but Brown and Walker could turn into really nice complements to our stars if everything falls into place.

Mavs 

Saw some rumors they were throwing around after the trade and sounded like they had the worst package to offer. Tried to get a third team involved and were working on options when the Mavs came in with a pretty good one for Kyrie and his contract expiring at the end of the season....although, if things work with Luka I can see him resigning.

Lakers are crushed with minimal talent and three massive contracts.

The Los Angeles Lakers are finalizing a trade to land Minnesota Timberwolves guard D'Angelo Russell and the Utah Jazz's Malik Beasley and Jarred Vanderbilt in a deal involving Russell Westbrook, Mike Conley, and picks, sources told ESPN's Adrian Wojnarowski.

Utah will receive Westbrook, a 2027 top-four protected pick that's protected 1-4, Juan Toscano-Anderson, and Damian Jones from the Lakers.

Minnesota will receive Conley, Nickeil Alexander-Walker, the lesser of the Washington Wizards' or Memphis Grizzlies' 2024 second-round picks, and 2025 and 2026 second-round selections from the Jazz.

I'm not into the NBA like I used to be, but Bamba seems like a solid get....especially with AD always injured.

AD is the anthony rendon of the lakers.
