Yeah right.

No reason for him to stay in Denver that's for sure

Not good

Rest of the league

He picked a good time to round into form. Those were all bad teams of course.

Ws finish with the 3rd best record in the league, after all the injuries. Good season all in all. Can't see them getting past the Suns but it's not impossible.

Word is Nick Nurse from the Toronto Raptors may be the next HC of the Lakers.

NBA Rumors: Lakers to target Nick Nurse for head-coaching job?

NBA Rumors: The Los Angeles Lakers could target Nick Nurse as a head-coaching candidate this offseason. Can they pull off the unlikely?

The Lakers come all the way back from a ten-point deficit and beat the non-starters in Denver in OT 146-141. Both teams' non-starters played and the Lakers are 2-0 with those youngsters. James, AD, Westbrook, Anthony did not play in Denver either. Maybe the Lakers should move all four and get players and draft capital. It really is time for rebuild mode in LA.

Woj has had that tweet drafted for the last 30 minutes and was just waiting for the Den/LA game to hit zeros so he could hit send.

 

[Retroram52]

Yep. Toast. Vogel goes.

Lakers fire head coach Frank Vogel

The Lakers made their first offseason move after a supremely disappointing 2021-22 season.

Steph...

Kerr: Curry's status for Game 1 still up in the air

As Warriors star Stephen Curry continues to work his way back from a foot injury -- and with the start of the playoffs looming -- coach Steve Kerr said, "There is a chance he could be ready for Game 1, there is a chance he might not."

Nuggets...

Malone: Up to Murray to decide when he's ready

Tuesday marks the anniversary of Jamal Murray tearing his left ACL, and the Nuggets say it's still up to their star point guard if he'll be ready to return for the playoffs or if he'll wait until next season.

Nets...

Sources: Nets' Simmons could return in Round 1

Brooklyn Nets forward Ben Simmons' pain-free progress is fueling hope that he could return in the first-round of the Eastern Conference playoffs, even if it's just in a 10-15 minute a game role, sources told ESPN's Adrian Wojnarowski on Sunday.

If that is really the path you want to take?

You keep Russ let his contract expire. Trade the other 2.

I don’t think that is wise for the Lakers unless LeBron and AD both want to be traded, but it could be an option.

 

[fightinfunbags]

Dude is a bad teammate. I wish he went in the Simmons trade. Maybe including him gets you Bruce Brown instead of Milsap.

 

[fightinfunbags]

He’s an asshole. You don’t need to be an NBA coach to know that DeAndre Jordan is cooked. But he also hung himself with his own words here. If he’s talking Big 5 vs Small 5, BBall Paul should get all the back up minutes with zero minutes for Jordan’s cooked ass.

Vogel was smiling last night after the game.

I think he knows it's coming and he's relieved.
