Max Christie the Lakers 35th Pick

[Laker's Fan]

Going to miss you Max. Congrats on your continued journey. You're going to be a good one.

Dam. Best of luck. He will will be one of those indispensable role players like Hart and Caruso in a few years

Thought I'd pipe in here as well, really going to miss Max Christie dammit. He had become my favorite Laker.

Really hope Luca changes all that as advertised. Hoping for 73 point Luca after all star break.

Sad to see him go when he was just coming into his own. But you have to do that trade 10 times out of 10.

Losing Max will be a nightmare for us going forward. We are going to regret it. The kid has grown so much in such a short time. He has a chance to be something special.

[lakersfever714]

Bye Josh Hart. Gonna miss you. Good luck, bud!

We finally found a starting SG defender and a line-up that works. Damn this one going to bother me for a while.

Bye Max. Thanks for everything.

This kid will have a great career.

Max was growing into an essential role for this team - a KCP-like defensive 2-way off-guard. This leaves a hole on the team that no one else currently fills.

[alleyoop]

Gonna be a tough loss, for sure

Rob really needs to scan the trade market for a replacement

Really, really hate losing this kid.
He is becoming a defensive stud with a nice developing offensive game.
Apparently Dallas sees that potential in Max too. Good luck Max!

With no Max and no AD, we're likely to see 300 point games.

Too bad Dallas didn't settle for Reddish instead.

Sad to see him go when he was just starting to grow into his potential.

[lakerlove123]

I'm sure going to miss Max, both because I liked him as a person from what I'd seen of him, and because of the kind of player I think he could be.

Am I the only one here who kept getting growing rookie Kobe vibes from him?

Obviously not the scorer or anything that Kobe was...but Max was getting this 'Mamba' look in his eyes, lanky young Kobe form, taking pride in his defense and his offensive skills and strength were starting to blossom (perfect evidence of this for me was last night when he went for that layup at MSG and basically hung in the air and powered through the defender to lay it in).

I tend to be very optimistic about player potentials but I feel like he could really become a star.

Best of luck Max...still psyched we got Luka.

[wolfpaclaker]

Dude averaged 10+ppg 39% from 3 as a starter and chased the more athletic/tougher assignments. I really think his addition to the Doncic trade was understated. They probably wanted him more than Reaves due to 2-way potential if you ask me. I would have been more than ok with Reaves instead being in the trade (although Reaves is vastly more liked and popular).

Good luck Max.
