This sounds crazy but... am I the only one who would love it if Klay signed up for the Lakers?

I’d love to see him go against Steph and KD and whoever makes it out west, id love to face in the Finals

With Butler skipping out, Derrick Rose has a CAREER HIGH (you read that right) 44 and counting in a tight one against Utah.  He's had a great resurgence this year.


50 and a game-sealing block for D Rose. What a story. 

3 4 50 point scorers so far, two of them for the first time. Crazy year and it's still October!

I wouldn't want the Lakers making it into the Finals until the Celtics win a couple more banners to build some distance in the banner counts.

I miss this Derrick Rose.

Very much. He had 52 points in 27 mins (again) on Monday.  Greater league balance would be nice, but it'd also be fun to see how good he could be with a larger offensive role.

Wendell Carter Jr. had a big game.  25 points, 8 rebs, 5 assists, 3 steals, 3 blocks.  I was really hoping the Celtics could figure out a way to get him.  Horford 2.0

These may be the most disturbing posts I’ve ever read on this blog.  Hoping that the Lakers sign yet another top FA so they can again be championship ready. I can picture Magic’s satisfied smile and Jack Nicholson’s cocky grin. Showtime is re-birthed.  I’m feeling ill. 

With the world as it is today and you are hoping that the Lakers buy themselves another banner... #17.  And now I have to get up for work.

Holy misperception. I said I'd like to see Klay on another team, nothing of the Lakers or their championships. If anything, his departure for LA would improve our odds of a championship. 

You work too hard, NG.  I've found that daily mediocre performance tempers expectations and reduces my own stress.

Very well put sir, couldn't agree more. Some of this pro-Lakers, 'oh they're so fun to watch' talk makes me nauseous.

They're fun to watch when they lose. That's it.

I think you're fooling yourself if you think adding Klay makes the Lakers a legit contender. It would weaken the Warriors, and give then a harder path to the finals, but the Lakers wouldn't be a real threat for beating the Warriors and Celtics unless they also added another (bigger) name
I'm bitter.

How many teams would use Klay Thompson as their first option? Sac, Phx, Heat, Nets, Dallas, Chicago, Orl, Charlotte, Knicks... Washington and Phili maybe?

I'd say Cleveland, New York, Chicago, Brooklyn, Orlando, Atlanta, Miami, Sacramento, Memphis, and Clippers.

Whaaaaa?

He would be the first option on like 20 teams.

Such as? I can quite comfortably think of 10+ teams with better offensive players than Klay
'23 Historical Draft: Orlando Magic.

PG: Terry Porter (90-91) / Steve Francis (00-01)
SG: Joe Dumars (92-93) / Jeff Hornacek (91-92) / Jerry Stackhouse (00-01)
SF: Brandon Roy (08-09) / Walter Davis (78-79)
PF: Terry Cummings (84-85) / Paul Millsap (15-16)
C: Chris Webber (00-01) / Ralph Sampson (83-84) / Andrew Bogut (09-10)

Shout out to Miss South Carolina.

No, maybe I'm exagerrating, but he maybe gets more shots up than Lillard, DeRozan, Blake, Embiid, PG on those teams (if they are smart). Mitchell should take a backseat too. Denver.

Gonna be a very interesting ROY race, though I can't imagine Doncic not getting it.
