That's my point though. They keep dishing out these doomed contracts and burn through draft picks, essentially tying themselves to ageing rosters in search for that silver bullet.

It's one thing making a scoop for a phenom like Shaq in his prime and stealing an up and coming kid from high school to go with him. It's another to keep throwing money and lengthy contracts at 30+ year olds and watching them miss chunks of the season to injury, expecting them to just flip that switch on come playoff time.

It hasn't worked and it won't. The only success they had was a in a condensed Covid bubble season.

I guess my general point is regardless if Lebron stays or goes they’re not a competitor, so you might as well keep him if you can.

Lakers don't need to rebuild, they're one of the glamour franchises that can just wait for the best players to reach free agency. Smart drafting, trading for undervalued talent, bah, leave that for the small market teams. Hooray for equalisation.

Outside of getting lucky with Lebron, it hasn’t exactly worked out well for them in recent memory. They were mediocre at best the 10 previous years. Despite the brand value, their owners aren’t exactly flush with cash either so they can’t afford to go into the luxury tax.

Re: Ben White, the team of the year will be a combined 9 of Arsenal and Man City players, plus Palmer and VVD. Doesn't matter if it's right or wrong, it's how these things work.

Raya
White Saliba Virgil Akanji/Ake/Gvardiol (according to taste)
Foden Rice Rodri
Palmer Haaland Saka

Wouldn't surprise me if they shoehorn De Bruyne in despite having played about 5 games, and maybe swap Raya for a shite team's goalie who's made a lot of highlight reel saves (call it the Kaminski Method)

To be fair, I'd expect a chemical company to have higher standards of cleanliness than a football club.

They've had to clean Manchester up before:

Weston Point-based Ineos ChlorVinyls Limited was fined £166,650 after it admitted accidentally releasing caustic soda into the Manchester Ship Canal.

What's the deal with pop tarts? It's not a main course. It's not a dessert. It's not really anything.

What's the deal with pop tarts? The don't even pop. They should be called Toaster Tarts.

I understand where you’re coming from, I just don’t think they have that many moves.

That's my point though. They keep dishing out these doomed contracts and burn through draft picks, essentially tying themselves to ageing rosters in search for that silver bullet.

Lakers fire Ham after 2 seasons, but will give LeBron a Kobe style 'thank you' contract and waste more drafts getting mid level players.

I said it at the time here and will stick to it; this Lakers front office continue to burn tomorrow for today chasing instant success and avoiding the inevitable rebuild. Joke of a place.

Lakers don't need to rebuild, they're one of the glamour franchises that can just wait for the best players to reach free agency. Smart drafting, trading for undervalued talent, bah, leave that for the small market teams. Hooray for equalisation.
