@piyushmittal Much like a cult, people buy in without question. The problem is that people buy in so hard they lose touch with reality. Like if they were playing poker and kept raising and re-raising their bet to the point where they can't fold even though they have nothing in their hand.

@NBAPaint1 If I was Dalton I would come back and privately hold a Mamba level grudge towards Pelinka. Then ball out with a vengeance every night to show Rob what he was giving away. Grow his stock and if Rob still wants to trade him away, it won't be in a group deal for an injury prone C.

@MontelWP They're going to do what they've done in the past. Harley loses. Starts grinding picking up wins. Six months from now she gets a rematch and wins the title.

@LakersLead @rhynaco Shouldn't had gotten rid of him in the first place. I know the Lakers need a C but you don't get rid of someone with so much upside as Knecht.

@LakeShowYo Didn't want to see Kneckt go in the first place. Lots of upside to him. Especially with the way the NBA is a three point shooting league. I get that we need a C but you don't go for one that is injury prone. Remember Andrew Bynum?

@EliteClubS0B And yet the WWE announcers gaslight the fans into believing he's the bad guy in all this.

@rockinrickyg @FightOwensFight could really use a friend right now.

@OverDrive1050 @FanDuelCanada The Gatorade pick should've been either cool colored (blue, green, purple) or warm (red, yellow, orange).

@LakeShowYo @bballforever_ I don't know Williams game well enough. But I know what Knecht could've been on a team with Luka. So this one stings.

@acnewsitics Watching Trump take a victory lap over this is like watching the kid with Downes syndrome celebrating because he scored a token basket in a meaningless high school basketball game.

@LegionHoops @ShamsCharania Luka doesn't need a mentor. He needs a dietician, a conditioning coach and a defensive minded center.

@EmmanuelAcho I'm feeling you. I'm a Lakers fan and it's like if they just traded Kobe out of the blue. He was a Mav for life. Just the management didn't look at him as one. Sorry for your loss as a fan. We're gonna miss AD. Treat AD well and us Laker fans will try and do the same with Luka.

@annacdemarco Just because he won doesn't mean he's in the last match of the show. Will he win the title? Will he put on a 5 star classic? Doesn't matter. His only job is to use the next few months to make you believe he can and will win. So enjoy the ride.

@8_24Mamba4Ever Gasol and Kobe had an amazing personal connection. Something that I don't know if it could've been replicated with AD. Sometimes it's beyond numbers. It's about intangibles.

@Trevor_Lane I would've preferred to see LeBron traded for Luka. I'm more a fan of the superstar front court/back court tandem a la Shaq/Kobe. But he needs to get a legit defensive minded C now for the team.

@LakersLead He didn't ask to be traded. He didn't want to leave. He's worked damn hard for the team. He will be missed.

@ianbremmer Real question. Can the US survive off their own resources? They import a lot of food from Canada and Mexico. They import a lot of oil from Canada. But are they self sufficient enough off of their own land to wait out Canada and Mexico?
