Rob Pelinka is the perfect example of being damned if you do and damned if you don’t.
Yesterday, @Lakers fans were saying he was asleep at the wheel, that he wasn’t aggressive enough, and that the front office had no plan. Less than 24 hours later, the #Lakers reportedly land Walker Kessler, Collin Sexton, Quentin Grimes, and Sandro Mamukelashvili in a flurry of moves that completely reshape the roster around Luka Dončić.
Was the price for Walker Kessler steep? Absolutely. But here’s the reality: when you identify a 24-year-old rim protector who runs the floor, rebounds, blocks shots, and fits perfectly next to Luka, you don’t get him at a discount. Utah had all the leverage, and Pelinka knew that if Kessler was his guy, it was going to cost premium assets. That’s the price of solving your biggest roster need.
The bigger picture matters. This wasn’t about winning the transaction. It was about building a roster that actually fits. Kessler gives Luka the vertical lob threat and defensive anchor he’s at his best with. Sexton brings downhill scoring and toughness. Grimes adds two-way versatility on the wing. Mamukelashvili gives the Lakers another skilled frontcourt player with size and shooting.
Fans wanted urgency. Pelinka showed urgency.
You can debate the cost, but you can’t debate the intent. The Lakers identified their weaknesses and attacked them immediately. That’s what a President of Basketball Operations is supposed to do. Now it’s on the players and coaching staff to make it work.

If you hate someone because of the color of their skin, then you are the problem.
As of right now, I only see 4 teams in the West that you can FOR SURE say are better than the Phoenix Suns
OKC, San Antonio, Minnesota, & Denver
Phoenix has a legit shot at finishing top 5 in the west 🔥
Lakers fans are being just a tad bit ridiculous. Remember when Lebron missed all that time to start the season and Luka and Reaves were hanging 70 a night on everyone while winning 70% of their games? Yeah, that's the baseline we are starting with.
