Farewell, Timofey Mozgov

Would of been a two time champ if the big guy was healthy last season
So long Russian

"If he signs, he signs."

Mozgov was a top center the season before last. 15.2 points, 10.0 rebounds, 1.8 blocks on 59 percent shooting in 2014-2015. I think a fully recovered Mozgov is a much better deal than Kevin Love. I would have preferred to see Love go and to get Mozgov back in the rotation. I hope we pick up a decent true center somewhere.

Any word of a possible sign and trade into Lakers cap space to create a large trade exception?

Could someone make a highlight video of Mozgov eating pizza set to the tune of Sarah Mclachlan's Angel? I need closure.

Compare Mozgov's Finals vs. Love's Finals. Love is going to be his same inconsistent self next year. After waiting two seasons I'm sure this will be the year he finally "snaps out of it".

Still haven't officially signed Moz. Perhaps they are working with us on a S&T as has been mentioned as a possibility.

No S&T on this. Thought it could be possible since they had taken care of all their other contracts first, but with Timo as a UFA, there really was zero leverage for the Lakers to engage in a S&T.

Goodby Sweet Prince. Although really, as a Southern Califorian, it's more like a Hello. Looking forward to Timo's commercial and acting opportunities in LA with excitement.

I love it. Don't know if I'll ever love a team as much as I did the 15-16 Cavs. Sad to see Mozzie (and Delly) go. I think Timo is going to show that he's much closer to the player he was in 2014-15 than the player he was in the 15-16 season.

Very cool to see him wearing that. Best of luck to Moz. Paying him that money was just unrealistic for our situation.

Hope he can bounce back with them.

I loved Mozzy almost as much as Delly. I'm really happy to see the big motherfucker get paid.
