They then took Justise Winslow over him. That's not a Klay Thompson type player in any way.
Love, Hurts.

Im sure players get lied to all the time in the recruitment process…Miami also must maybe didn’t expect Winslow to be there…he was highly sought after and I believe is the guy Boston tried to trade like 4 1sts to move up and take.

Wasn’t he the projected #1 pretty close to draft date?

Honestly, I don't think he was even close in that draft. It was going to be KAT, without a doubt, even early on.

I think the top 4 were fairly locked in…Winslow definitely got some talk as high as 5 though.

Miami would be so good if they were a bit better in the draft.

Rimmer's a new name. He was a video coordinator/player dev guy in Milwaukee for 4 years before joining the Lakers staff last season.

I'm hearing rumblings that they will play at least 30 games vs the Eastern Conference teams, including a home and away game vs each team. Need to get confirmation from a trusted source though.

It's kind of crazy to me that the Suns play the Lakers 4 times in their first 9 games, including pre-season.

*edit: I honestly didn't realize that I made the same joke as Espo did. :Feeling ashamed of myself: :oops:

Lol, he's too young, and I'm way more loyal.
