    Ball will NOT be a star in this league. Its too physical for him, and he cant shoot, its that simple.
    Agreed.. Lakers were playing better of late.. Like Lakerboy said 11-4 in their last 15.. Clarkson was a big part of that... Should have gave up Ball and kept Clarkson instead... Nance was an effort guy that defends and gets rebounds, Lakers will miss him as well.. Fry can hit 3's and the Midget is a starting point guard in the league and can score.. I see the Lakers scoring more but also giving up more points now..

    I hope it freed up a ton of cap salary because I think the Cavs got the better deal.. Lakers don't even have the Midget locked into a long term contract.. Could lose him.

    Magic and Pilinka making decent moves so far. Exciting times for Laker fans.
    Clarkson does turn over the ball alot but he was improving on that and has played a big part of the Laker offense and success lately.. He really helped the Lakers beat OKC last weekend in OKC.. I think he's a good player with as much upside as Lonzo Ball...

    Clarkson at best is Jamal Crawford !! He’s a bench player !! Ball might be Jason kidd

    I like your optimism.. I think it depends what free agent pick ups they can pull off during the off season??. Freeing up cap room doesn't gaurantee anything..Nobody really wants to play for the Lakers right now because they are a young crap team still.. So we'll see?

    Lakers will start him and see what he's got is my prediction.. Hey, but as soon as the Laker coaching staff sees he's not that same Thomas that played in Boston and what a defensive liability he is they'll sit him.. Ball then starts is my prediction...

    Lakers are committed to developing Lonzo Ball...

    What's wrong with a Jamal Crawford or Lou Williams? Best 6 men in the league... Most teams would love to have those 2 players...

    I just don't think you can compare Lonzo Ball to a Jason Kidd yet.. Jason Kidd is considered one of the best point guards to ever play the game..

    Comparing rookie season stats doesn't tell you much.. Jason Kidd was the man..

    Where is SBR Scout GoatMilk to give his opinion???

    If Thomas doesn't want to play ball there's a fukkin seat over by Luol Deng. They will waive and stretch Deng's contract BTW. There is no market for that contract or the player.

    LMAO.

    I have seen Lou Williams and Clarkson being compared. There is not a comparison, Clarkson can hope to be Williams in a couple of years, but he has a long way to go and a lot of potential to live up to.

    Thomas is worthless. Too small, defensive liability.

    Still a good move by the Lakers getting Clarkson off the books. I'll miss Nance.

    The Lakers are about to go shopping. The last few years no one has been interested, it will be interesting if that's changed. Do most of these guys even know who Magic Johnson is?

    Can lonzo play the SG. Gotta like the lakers moves maybe winning a title in the next 5 years. Im thinking they think their the next GS warriors. Walton is doing real good for himself.
    to be a shooting guard, you need to be able to shoot.

    Jake, I bleed purple and gold and red and blue. There is no crime in rooting for multiple teams. Just because you've pounded the same pussy for the last 20 years, doesn't mean I can't enjoy a little variety.

    Right now I'm skyping with three different overweight women, Jake. Meanwhile, you're locked at home getting nagged at, being told to take out the trash. Who's winning, bro?????

    So sawwwy.. lol.. You are bleeding then....

    Giant this ain't the 80's with showtime basketball anymore.. It ain't Kobe and Shaq winning titles days either..

    Clippers owned this town since Kobe shut it down.. Maybe that will change though.. Clippers are quickly become garbage....Next year should be interesting..

    Good stuff for Cavs

    I watched them get raped in a game for 2 quarters back in Nov and laughed. Only seen them getting raped in highlights since then. Horrible squad of players. Not a team at all.

    They got some decent players. Kind of like some of them like Clarkson as I've seen some Lakers games this season.

    I've been waiting for them to dump Iman for years

    If they do better, that's good. If not, so what. The NBA is a garbage league to me since 2012. Don't care who wins. Just try to nail the underdog in the Finals when they win just like the Super Bowl.
