Nunn was the answer. Now rui is the answer. Remember when Stanley Johnson WAS THE ANSWER…. like why wasn't Stanley Johnson not signed….oh my gosh… Lakers found the answer.🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
This is just another lakers problem.
Can they gen someone else with the remaining picks? Maybe put Bev in a trade aswell? Who might be available?
Good trade for LA. Nunn needed to go, the guy hasn't done much at all. At least Rui can have some impact in games.
Lonzo Ball, 2 1st rd picks
for Fred Van Vleet
Wizards win this trade imo.
This is the worst scenario for the Wizards. They bring Kuz back for what? To be a play-in team for the next half decade? With how well KP and Kuz been playing, the Wizards should be selling high on them right now and committing on development of young guys instead.
(sarcastic voice) Wow Bobby, I'm shocked. U actually thought the LAL organization actually did something rite?
Nun was just getting his feet under him and finally starting to hit some 3s.. he is definitely not the same from Miami but he has great potential To get back to what he once was
Great… now we've got a whole week of ESPN pumping out Lakers content just cos they made 1 trade for a role player. THEY'RE STILL TRASH! 😅
wizards fa sho
Kendrick Nunn is a borderline G-league / China League player 😂😂😂 he’ll be out of the league by next year.
Lakers roster is 🗑️…. Needs a solid big man
Never change Bobby! You’re the goat.
Interested in seeing a PG- Bron, SG-Reaves, SF-Rui, PF-AD, C-Bryant
Blah, blah blah! Who is this guy that loves to hear himself talk! Waste of time, you shouldn’t get paid for this kinda talk!!! 👎👎 Awful!
Get Cam reddish or bogie from Detroit and you got a good top 6 team in the west
Why the Lakers always tryna fleece other teams in trades? I guess you gotta give them credit for gettin over on the Wizards tho…
I like Nunn but the Lakers have guard logjam. So they rly get Rui for Nunn + 2nd rd picks
Halfway in to the video. Is he going to say WHO WON THE TRADE!? Or is he gonna just recap the details?
Cold world, nun happily and willingly resigned with lakers for this lol
Your the best Bobby, so glad to hear your imput.
Wizards won again Lakers keep getting horrible players
The fact Bobby Marks (one of WOAT GMs) is ESPN’s “expert” is hilarious. He made arguably worst trade ever of dying washed KG Pierce for unprotected picks that became Tatum Jaylen Brown (both top3 picks).
Lakers since starting 2-10 (with historically bad 3P shooting and many close losses just like since then as well with some horrid officiating late)
20-15 is tied for 8th best record in NBA (AD has missed 20/35 games too!) and tied for 4th best record in West with Pelicans! If they win next game that’s 21-15 which is tied for 6th best record since 2-10 start (with Cavs & Heat).
I like it. Gives us size and versatility in the front court.
The lakers had wayyyy to many guards and small ones at the. The athleticism and size is much needed.
I love how Russ is playing but imagine what they could get with that 47 mil contract lol. That’s 2-3 very solid role players. Shooters especially. I’m not trying to knock Russ he’s a great player, but Schroder can be a bench point guard and Bron can start at point. G era more shooters and role players. Just money wise to be a better team they don’t really need him.
I really like this for Lakers. LeBron wanted this to happen. With Davis back hopefully they make enough of a run LeBron stays
Rui Hachimura is a great mid range specialist that will get you BUCKETS. Something the Lakers desperately need. The downside is that he has tunnel vision and rebounding. People say Lakers won the trade, but keep that same energy when y’all have to re-sign him for $20 million per year
If a white board is good enough for Karl Rove then it’s good enough for Bobby.
you literally just have to wait to see how the 3 2nd rounders turn out before figuring who wins or loses the trade
The Wizards got nothing in return for Riu. This trade shows the wizards have no clue about basketball. I don't like the trade. Should had got more. Lakers screwed the wizards again.
Wizards are synonymous with failure
Kuzma is going to get overpaid and the Wizards will continue to stink
Bobby is completely right. Their front office has been striking out in lottery so bad the last 3 years. It’s almost laughing. They are some mediocre that they always get top 10 picks and can’t never hit. Kuzma definetly deserves a nice $20+ Million dollar payday extension.
Sad this is considered a big trade
Smh as a spurs fan how the Lakers always got money smh this is sickening they want this team in the playoffs so bad
This was a great deal! Go Lakers!
Really like this for the lakers! Size is key 🔑! The lakers struggle at the 3/4 spot guarding bigger wings like Gordon etc. this is a precursor move to a shooter deal like buddy who needs to guard smaller players.
Why is everybody so excited? Is it because Lebron did not dictate this?
Good lord stop babbling
The Lakers have a Japanese Player
Tommy Shepard is pretty decent with trades. He's a poor drafter. He goes for the "safe" pick in the draft, and there are no safe picks. Everyone has bust potential so it's crazy to not swing for impact guys and he never does. If things don't work out for him in Washington, that's why.
Wait we gave up 3 second rounders and still have 4 left?? Ok now I dig this trade
Thought the lakers didn’t have tradeable assets
