  1. Dalton was struggling, so keep that bench warm until you are needed due to injury or something. U shooting like 36% from three ain't sharp…

  2. Lakers have one of the top medical staffs in the league so I’m not shocked at the out come

  3. The Lakers wanted Williams to pass the physical. That much is clear. He's the missing piece for a potential championship this year..and with Lebron's age, this year is vitally important. If they said Williams was damaged goods, I believe them.

  4. Using tanning beds are so obvious with the white eyelids. Better to just get a tan with the natural sun, my guy. Just sayin ✌🏼

  5. Dan Majerle’s son can be a star player. Just joking, but reminds me of Thunder Dan a lot. Maybe this will light a fire in his belly. Show the front office to not play with his emotions. Let’s go,Dalton!

  6. The player was declared unhealthy by the Lakers. This is not only bad for the player but also for the Hornets and it is a big damage to their image. So it's not surprising that the Hornets are not taking this on themselves. Not to mention that the Hornets made after that another trade to get a Center in Nurkic from the Suns.

  7. I think we should trade Dalton next season there is no fixing the Relationship he will leave us once his contract expires

  8. Lakers got cold feet, realized they were getting roasted on the trade (usually they're the roasters) and founds b.s. to recind it. Throwing both Mark Williams and the Hornets under the bus while doing it.

  9. It is funny that when the trade originally happened, hornets got fleeced. Now it’s hornets tried to scam the lakers. The lakers called for mark, not hornets tried to sell mark off.

  10. Nobody in the league really watches the hornets. If you did, you would see that MW has serious flaws in his game. He can’t shoot beyond 3 feet, he is underweight, he gets dominated by big centers, he doesn’t play defense, and more importantly is lackadaisical and doesn’t appear to have a love for the game. Many times he would play an underwhelming 1st half and get lectured by his coach. He would then appear to get in the game and play decently for 2 quarters. Then the same thing would happen in future games. He is self aware. He would admit on camera that he needed to be more physical and focused but then go out and underperform the next game. I think the Lakers didn’t do their due diligence before executing the trade. They probably did find something health wise that allowed them out of the deal. They did say they were concerned about his Long term durability 5 to 10 years out. However I think the motivator was what they saw in his game and attitude upon further examination. They only had 2 or 3 days to evaluate before the trade. A lot of “pundits” made the same mistake. They looked at his stats and didn’t really do a good job at scouting. I feel for Mark though. His value as a player has been greatly diminished and his confidence all but shattered. Hopefully he can use this as a moment of self reflection and decide whether he really wants to put in the wotk and conditioning to be a quality NBA player.

  11. Dalton needs to grow up. He knows it’s a business. He’s hurt, because the lakers wanted to trade him. So what. A 15 times better player wasn’t wanted in his team.

  12. I think they had buyers remorse Mark Williams had played 23 of the last 28 games they knew he was injury prone from the beginning so if anyone is pulling anything it’s the Lakers

  13. It would be like paying top dollar for a used sports car and finding out the frame is bent. Charlotte was clearly hoping to sneak this by.

  14. Why does sports media keep using the same phasing to justify the Lakers actions. They cost that man millions. They are the scammers.
