Bogut signs with Lakers

If stays healthy at least he can plug some holes while the young fellas are still adjusting to nba life.

I live in Perth and found that LA people are superficial like Perth people are. Soemthing about the west coast? Other areas of US were fine, but other ares have their own uniquness like the abrasiveness of New Yorkers.

But there is definitely something special about LA people, even LA people joke about it.

Good weather and attractions. A lot of the sprawl is hideous but there are nice pockets, and it'd be easier with money. I wouldn't say the residents are any more superficial than similar scenes in most other big cities, including Australia. He's been in the NBA and US for a while so he'd be used to the worst of it.

LA is a dive unless you're rich... which NBA players like Bogut are. So he'll be chilling in a nice oceanside suburb away from ghetto downtown.

Well I didn't say I liked the LA lifestyle ;-)
But he's not there because he wants to win, so I figure he likes the weather, or beaches, or being closer to Australia or something. Maybe he just wants to play for Magic?

Snooch, as a Celtics fan I truly hope that is what happens!

What would be Bogut's lifestyle advantage of living in LA? More freeways to drive his fleet of cars? Or just a shorter flight back to Melbourne? I'd be surprised that Bogut could put up with the superficiality of LA people.

Can't wait to read Bogut's first subtweet about the Ball family.

On the flipside, OKC could be good this year and PG and Russ both decide to stay. LeBron enjoys playing with IT and suddenly LA is stuck with Lonzo Ball and his extensive baggage...

Yeah ok Bogut is too old now to be starting in future but the fact remains Lakers loading up and in 18/19 ready to fire.

I would have thought Celtics would have been the best choice.

Bogut is on borrowed time, next year is no guarantee, if he wants a little money and a chance to win, now is the time with Celtics.

It would have been a good fit too as the C's need Defence and Rebounding, something they managed to flush down the toilet (Bradley and Crowder) when they had precious little to start with.

I really want to see a Lavar Ball / Bogut reality TV show now.

Bogut won't be the starting centre with Brooke Lopez in town! It's got to be a lifestyle choice. Hopefully he plays minimal minutes and preserves his body for the 2020 Olympics.

I'd be pretty nervous if I were OKC right now though. I could see PG and Lebron teaming up in LA after this season and its not hard to imagine PG influencing Westbrook into joining him! If that happens, OKC will be spitting chips!

Spot Up gets it.

As I said it's all about 2018-19.

All the pieces are falling into place:

President - Magic
GM - Pelinka
Coach - Walton

The PG - Ball

The Centre (if fit) - Bogut

LeBron & Westbrook coming next season. Once they arrive more will follow.

If he's there a second year things might get interesting!

Yeah fair call re lifestyle and coach. Hadn't really factored those in. More was thinking of timeframe and fit. Fair enough. Hope he can stay fit.

I assume he played under Walton as assistant?

Maybe he just wants a nice lifestyle spot too?

Lakers will be contenders in 2018-19. Good spot.

With all the talk about the 36ers dud imports i thought i would ask who people rate as the best 36ers import that had not played in the NBL b4. Guys like Mee and Ballinger cant be named.
