Nicole Obrien+FollowLakers Shut Down Porter Jr. Trade RumorsLooks like the LakeShow front office isn’t buying into the Michael Porter Jr. hype—despite the chatter, they’ve reportedly got zero interest in bringing the one-time champ to LA. With King James and AD needing defensive help, Claxton made more sense, but even that’s not happening. Guess Rob Pelinka is keeping his powder dry for now. Thoughts on who fits better with our squad as the deadline approaches? #Sports #Basketball #LakeShow00Share
Nicole Obrien+FollowLakers vs Kings: Keon Ellis Trade BuzzWith the trade deadline looming, the Lakers are reportedly eyeing Keon Ellis, the Kings’ 3-and-D specialist. But with nearly 10 teams in the mix, the price for Ellis is skyrocketing—possibly a late first-rounder. Is he worth it? The LakeShow needs help, but Rob Pelinka might hold out for bigger moves. Would you pay up, or wait for a better fit? #Sports #Basketball #LakeShow00Share
Brian Gaines+FollowLakers Stand Firm: Reaves Only for SuperstarsTalk about loyalty! Rob Pelinka just turned down 20 offers for Hillbilly Kobe, aka Austin Reaves. The Lakers reportedly won’t move him unless it’s for a package including Giannis or Jokic. Reaves is having a career year, and it’s wild to see him valued this highly. Would you trade him for anyone else? Or is he untouchable unless a true MVP comes calling? #Sports #Basketball #LakeShow10Share
summersivan+FollowLakers vs Trail Blazers: Knecht’s Quiet NightTough loss for the Lake Show as the Trail Blazers outpaced us 132-116. All eyes were on rookie Dalton Knecht, but the former Vol only saw five minutes, dropping a quick three points on perfect shooting. King James put up 20, but it wasn’t enough to spark a comeback. Did Ham miss a chance to unleash Knecht, or was this just a tough matchup? Let’s talk rotations and what’s next for the Lakers! #Sports #Basketball #LakeShow00Share
Susan Reeves+FollowLakers Eye Wiggins in Ja Morant Trade TwistLakeShow fans, buckle up! The Ja Morant trade saga could unexpectedly benefit the Purple & Gold. While King James and crew aren’t in the Morant sweepstakes, NBA insiders hint that LA could swoop in as a third team, rerouting Andrew Wiggins to Hollywood. With the 3-and-D market bone dry, Wiggins’ two-way game might be the best fit for the Lakers’ playoff push. It’s a classic Pelinka chess move—would you pull the trigger? #Sports #Basketball #LakeShow20Share
guerrajohn+FollowLakers vs Kings: Trade Deadline DramaLakers Nation, things are heating up as Rob Pelinka works the phones for some much-needed perimeter and rim protection. But with the front office hunting for bargain deals and limited assets to move, it’s looking tough to land a game-changer before the deadline. Rumors swirl around names like Rui, Gabe, and even Vando, but with the Kings lurking in the West, will LA do enough to keep pace? Let’s hear your takes—should the Lake Show go all-in or play it safe? #Sports #Basketball #LakeShow00Share
Oscar Gonzalez+FollowLakers Eyeing Big Trade Before Deadline?With the trade deadline looming, Lakers Nation is buzzing! Word is Rob Pelinka’s working the phones hard, possibly packaging Vando and Gabe Vincent for a much-needed 3-and-D wing. Rumors say the front office is even dangling a future first-rounder to land someone like Herb Jones or Trey Murphy. Would adding a defensive ace finally help King James and the squad make a deep playoff run? Let’s hear your takes on who fits best! #Sports #Basketball #LakeShow00Share
Patrick Gonzales+FollowShould Lakers Target Cavs’ Hunter?Laker Nation, with the team cooling off, there’s buzz about trading for De’Andre Hunter from the Cavs. But let’s be real—Hunter’s offense is shaky this season and his defense has been a liability. With his big contract and the Cavs not ready to deal, is he really the answer to our problems? I say we pass and look for a better fit to help King James and AD. Thoughts? #Sports #Basketball #LakeShow00Share
Susan Reeves+FollowLakers Eye Wiggins: Rui Hachimura on the Move?Lakers Nation, big trade rumors are swirling! Word is the front office might send Rui Hachimura packing to land Andrew Wiggins, aiming to boost LA’s defense after losing AD. While Rui’s been solid, his inconsistency and lack of D could make him expendable. Would swapping Rui for Wiggins give King James and Luka the edge they need for a deep playoff run? Or is this too steep a price? Let’s hear your takes! #Sports #Basketball #LakeShow00Share
Amy Tanner+FollowLakers Bet on Kobe Bufkin’s Hot HandLakeShow fans, what do you think of the front office giving Kobe Bufkin a 10-day shot after his G-League tear? Averaging nearly 29 a night for South Bay, Bufkin’s efficiency and shot creation could be the scoring spark we need off the bench. Plus, his first game could be against the Hawks—the team that drafted him. High upside, low risk. Is this the guard depth we’ve been missing? #Sports #Basketball #LakeShow10Share
