Ramona saying LAL is just doing it's due diligence with Dwight Pelinka and Kobe just fuckin with him, hopefully
A little more like it. Noah was pretty solid for Memphis, still shooting above 70% @ the FT line as well. Maybe Noah/LeBron can set their feud aside? LeBron probably can, anyway. Just need a big that thrives doing the dirty work and embraces the hustle and a challenge FFS NBC Sports@NBCSports 3h The Lakers reportedly have interest in Joakim Noah http://bit.ly/2KI6qT2
The Lakers will host workouts with veteran big men Dwight Howard, Joakim Noah and Marreese Speights this week as they explore options to fill the void left by the knee injury to DeMarcus Cousins. Noah FTW
Dwight Howard was bought out by the Grizzlies and will join the Lakers on a non-guaranteed contract. Dwight is like a bad case of herpes.
Non-guaranteed contract so not quite herpes..they can get rid of his ass. I really thought they'd go for Noah. Watch Noah go to the Clippers. Would be nice to get Iggy to help keep Dwight in line, but the coaching staff is pretty strong with no-nonsense guys this time
I really wanted Noah but oh well.....would have been weird seeing him and LeBron play together given the bad blood.
Gah. LeBron James and Dwight Howard on this team. Free throws are gonna be great. Maybe Dwight can go with his version of Delonte West style and sleep with LeBron's dad.
@wojespn Dwight Howard's deal with the Lakers will be non-guaranteed, league source tells ESPN. Howard had several meetings with Lakers officials, and they'll give him a chance to show he's made changes in how he conducts himself. Lakers players were involved in process. If that doesn't humble Dwight, he's hopeless. Man is 33 years old and being told he's on watch for how he conducts himself and will be cut if he acts out. Embarrassing.
All the media hoopla and twitter memes and IG slander..there's going to be so much bs available to catch Dwight's attention on a daily basis. Lakers are leading off every morning show. He probably really is hopeless. He could get cut..or he could be doing double-double numbers quite easily, and if he really is healthy he's 10x the athlete that Harrell/Zubac are. Even at this age. Just do the double-double thing without whining about post touches offensively, help keep Javale @ no more than 15-18 minutes a night and it'll be a win. 23 minutes for Dwight @ center, 15 for Javale, 10 for AD. Cut the pie that way. Anyway, Dwight has a real opportunity to give himself a home post career and be considered a great Laker..shit's crazy. He's still young enough and enough of a freak athlete to have a 3-4 year run with a team. Or like I began this..he could get cut.
All I ask of him is to make winning at all costs the top priority. Cut the Superman act, stop trying to be the court jester and being friendly with the opponents. Have a talk with Kobe about learning how to go for the jugular. If he can do all that, he will add a lot to his legacy. Ugh, WTF do I care anyhow. This team's makeup is so difficult to get behind.
