    Ooooh that's some good schadenfreude. Their championship chances just took a nosedive.

    LaMelo Ball traded to the Lakers for Austin Reeves, Dalton Knecht, picks.

    Luka Doncic, LaMelo Ball Backcourt is unstoppable.

    Now that they're bringing in his old running mate Luka look for a Woodshedding in Los Angeles to begin soon.

    One of the worst defensive backcourts of all time though--they will score every time up the court and give up points every time the other way

    Mark Williams' agent, Jeff Schwartz of Excel Sports Management, released the following statement: "The overwhelming sentiment, after conferring with multiple, nationally recognized doctors, is that the Los Angeles Lakers should not have failed Mark Williams on his physical. Mark was ready and able to play for them and should have been given that opportunity."

    Nationally recognized doctors? Mark Williams’ agent must’ve conferred with Dr. Oz.

    the man has played in just 86 games his 1st 3 seasons, it would’ve been more surprising if he had actually passed his physical

    I hear other unreliable reports that Williams is demanding to be released from CHA and will sign w LA? Maybe I should stop reading garbage rumor sites, but I would be really mad if that happened, but it's believable because it's the Lakers.

    CHA got a (projected) lotto pick rookie and 2 firsts for Williams. They aren't going to release him!

    They won't get the equivalent of three firsts for him again, but will get better than a bag if cheetos.

    I also doubt Williams would want to sign for the Lakers now?

    I don't follow? How is a guy dominating the NBA after he is booted off the Lakers rigging by the League?
