TRISTAN THOMPSON?
TT? League fucked.
lakers dont have meme backup center challenge (failed again)
lol tristan thompson
Gotta give it to LeBron, he takes care of his people
Shump and JR next
Tristan’s glazing paid off
The East runs thru LA!
“Bron it’s me, Tristan!”
“TRISTAN???!!!”
[rdc skit, gold lol](https://streamable.com/1wfmib)
lol waited til the last day of the season because it’s cheaper…
Lakers should give that spot to Ariza. Man needs the money
From a regular analyst to nba player his story is inspiring
Finally sign a center AFTER Mo Bamba comes back lmao, that luxury tax seriously has Jeanie pressed
Shump and Nets pick next?
I called it yesterday to a couple of friends that we’d sign TT.
I’m gonna miss Davon though. He was a great cheerleader unironically
Jeanie Buss is such a poverty owner. Lakers could’ve used another center 15 games ago but she waits till the last day of the season because it’s cheaper lol
Shaq Harrison, 2k legend
lmao shaq just played with us yesterday
WE GOT ANOTHER UNDERSIZED CENTER, LEAGUE IS FUCKED
TT LMAO
That was the best center they could get? Tristan is washed and he’s only like 6’9
TT was really really really terrible on our team last year, shoutout to LeBron for keeping his boys getting paid.
The missing piece is back with Lebron!
SHAQ COMING OUT OF RETIREMENT???
TT woulda ya know been helpful for that houston game a few weeks ago…
Damn, Reed was really carving out a valuable role as a hype man and cheerleader. Only half-joking lol
Are you fucking kidding me
i really don’t get why people are acting like this is doom and gloom lmfao. The center position is Anthony Davis’ spot. Whatever his backup situation is, if the Lakers are intending to go deep, it won’t be for very many minutes, and right now we have Wenyen Gabriel and Mo Bamba as backups. Tristan Thompson is there literally just for some veteran leadership on a postseason run, hop in for 2 minutes at the end of blow outs and grab some boards.
Man I saw ‘Shaq’ and ‘veteran center’ and jumped to some wild conclusions, and I’m not sure it would be any more foolish than the ghost of TT
Tough to see a Celtics legend go to LA
