it probably feels weird because we still ain't got none
(the lebron signing alone is gonna wipe out what little they have plus they still have to re-sign Dellavedova, Jefferson and JR)

Simmons went from staffing Magic and Kareem to Nick Young and Mosgov.
:lol this made me laugh.

DeMar DeRozan has decided to re-sign with the Toronto Raptors, @USATODAYsports has learned. Terms not finalized.

DeMar is going back to the Raptors per Sam Amick.

It wasn't no secret on that. DeMar wanted to go back. Team looking good
At least they aren't like the Knicks and think it's 2011

Dodged that bullet, but still took a shotty to the chest with Mozgov
Looking forward to the Pacers/Raptors rematch!

Just woke up to congratulate the Lakers on winning the Mozgov sweepstakes. Lmao.
But it feels like a limbo move. Like instead of tanking, or getting better - Mitch is actively seeking Limbo.
Additional better moves for the Lakers in 2016:
2 years/4 Million - Eddy Curry
2 years/5 Million - Roy Hibbert

I would rather play Tarik Black then have Mozgov on the books for FOUR YEARS

DeMar DeRozan's deal with Toronto is expected to be for five years, but the Raptors have other moving pieces so his $$ is unclear.
I guess it's not max then?

Congrats on winning the tank for the next 4 years.
and yay at DeMar DeRozan.
he may be a non 3pt shooter SG, but he's our non-3ptr SG.

Sucks to see Baze leave the Rockets meeting without a deal. I was hoping this would be used as an indicator that getting Al would be even more possible. Now we wait for that meeting.

Miami left its meeting with center Hassan Whiteside without an agreement, sources tell The Vertical. Dallas next up in New York.
so we've got 2 options
1. #HeGone
2. Riley did the impossible and convinced him to wait.

Raptors better pray to god he doesn't lose a step. He's going to be as worthless as Rose when he does.

That's a lot of money for a shooting guard who can't shoot, but it's not like Toronto is beating free agents off with a stick so they kinda had to do it.

I wonder if the Lakers were really going to offer the max...

It didn't sound like they really had any interest. They already have their backcourt of the future invested in, and it sounds like they were looking at shooters and centers this offseason.
NVM.... $140 MILLION. BREH...
These contracts are gonna be fucking ridiculous, we better get fucking used to it.
I will say that DeMar works his ass off every summer and puts in work to improve his game. He's a good guy, one of the best at a shallow position, and we were in a tough position if we had just let him go for nothing.
We're all in while Lowry's still in his prime. Hope Masai can find us a starting 4 now.

They are establishing themselves as the team that finishes 2nd or 3rd in the east for the next 3 years before it all comes crumbling down.

So BizMax is gone?
He was always gone since we never had his bird rights.

93 points on 10 FG? Legend.
They have Buffalo Bills type aspirations, really. They're banking on one of the following:
1) Lebron getting hurt
2) Drake

If the Lakers sign Evan Turner I might throw up
Lakers still have space for two max contracts. I'm thinking either him or Parsons.
They did earlier. It was a weird Ohio State alum deal so they threw in Greg Oden on 1 year/10mil contract
