Rob didn’t make Ayton or Smart available. Credit to him for signing them, tho.
@RichStapless Lakers fans are incredibly spoilt. To fill 2 desperate needs with 26yr old Ayton and 2022 DPOY Smart without giving up any player or pick is unbelievable. not to mention how little they cost per year. Rob literally pulled a rabbit out of a hat to get these 2 players for free.

Damn, kinda liked him as an end of rotation guy.
The Los Angeles Lakers have waived guard Jordan Goodwin, sources tell ESPN. Goodwin emerged as a key rotation piece for JJ Redick late last season, playing 29 games and four playoff contests. Goodwin and Shake Milton were released to clear space for arrival of Marcus Smart.

To clarify, it clears a roster spot, but not the money. Something else is coming. Don't know what.
BREAKING: The Lakers are waiving Shake Milton’s $3M contract, per @ShamsCharania. This clears space for the signing of Marcus Smart.

I'd rather pay him what we're paying him than all of the dead weight we have on the back-end of the roster. Nearly half our team are rotation players that will hardly be impactful for the Lakers this upcoming season. I'll take that chance. And I'll also bet he'll play more than.
@RichStapless It did cost to get Smart though. He’s not a minimum deal and he’s also not been healthy for a long time.

The address needs the Lakers have and it didn’t cost an arm and a leg. The Lakers didn’t have much free money to spend even after DFS opted out. And they used the funds they have on low risk moves that have potentially high, tangible benefits. That’s how you address needs,.
@RichStapless they were free for a reason tho.

DFS got 14 million annually and we replaced him with a starting big, a POA and youth for 20 million combine with all our assets still at play. Home run imo.
The Lakers got Ayton and Marcus Smart for FREE.99 this offseason. 2 extreme needs filled with very good players and didn't have to give up a player or a pick for either. #LakeShow.
