Jesus fucking Christ. They’re just trolling me now. They go and sign the only bigger waste of space than MonTrashZel in the league. Great news the day after a Super Bowl loss haha.

Next Sixers/Lakers game will feature Dedmon and Bamba squaring off, lol.

Didn’t they already play twice this year?

So far in the 3 pt contest are Lillard, Simons, Hield, Haliburton and Markenan.

3 spots left to fill.

Larry Bird?

Larry Bird?

I like it, make it happen

Larry Bird?

Russell Westbrook. Just waiting for him to sign somewhere...

Can he just get all the racks moved to the corners?

Good pickup @fightinfunbags

It's almost like they consider it a personal challenge to win a playoff series with the worst backup centers in the league.

I've seen multiple sources pushing a Dedmon signing for the Lakers. I liked him in past years as a stretch big, but he hasn't amounted to much of late.

The Lakers wouldn't make sense.

He can't shoot from deep and the Lakers don't need someone in that position

Agreed. They could potentially use a 3rd PG maybe? Rumors about Rose maybe getting bought out...

I would have though a wing would work too. Was hoping for a Danny Green reunion but he's off the board now.

Can you get Russ back cheap?

Hell, even if the Lakers could.....

13th place team is a tough sell right now. I think G league may be where they end up looking...

Yeah but it's the Lakers. They will get players looking their way regardless. Especially bought out ones.

And the West is tight as hell right now. Get a good win streak going and they jump up the 6th in just a matter of weeks.

You guys gotta get past this. That's not really a thing anymore.

It may come into play more in the offseason (or the draw of Lebron), but for bought out players looking to ring chase this season, this year is a poor bet.

You guys made a great series of moves.

But, it didn’t vault you into top contender status.

You have a chance to come out of the west.

You also have the chance to miss the playoffs altogether.

The top buyout guys are going to go elsewhere.

But, you will get some to look your way.
