By giririsss Go To PostYeah, but at least they should be able to rotate who gets rest, LBJ or AD.except when one goes down with injury, about 30 games in
By giririsss Go To PostI think if they want to get another 25M+ they sort of have to do it this off season? Other wise i'm not sure they can and it rides into the sunset as LBJ / AD. Particularly if AD signs his extension, it gets messy quickly.Yeah, the salaries get messy after next year for sure. I just don't know how we make it work with the current construction of the team.
Glad to see AD will sign an extension after next season. Makes any talk of a rental go away quick
By Kibner Go To PostAD says he will not extend and will become a FA after next season (to get a bigger contract than is currently possible).Oh. That'll mess things up royaly then i believe.
By Doomsayer Go To PostYeah, the salaries get messy after next year for sure. I just don't know how we make it work with the current construction of the team.

By rvy Go To PostI'd be happy if we get jimmy
that's about all we can hope for
Yeah, I think Jimmy would be a best case? But he's going to want to get PAID. Maybe Tobias if Philly choose Jimmy over him?
But yeah, that was always the price with these trades. You've emptied the chest and still need 4 - 5 other guys. That's why the picks made it a "high price". Really limited what can be done going forward.
everybody get ready for silly season when lakers fans start looking around instagram to see what kawhi's family is liking and shit
oh boy
jerry gonna take him
let him come home jerry
oh boy
jerry gonna take him
let him come home jerry
By giririsss Go To PostYeah, I think Jimmy would be a best case? But he's going to want to get PAID. Maybe Tobias if Philly choose Jimmy over him?we'll hope jimmy really thinks he can get a chip with la and sign a 1 year deal, he can get paid next year with another team

By rvy Go To Posteverybody get ready for silly season when lakers fans start looking around instagram to see what kawhi's family is liking and shitSteve Ballmer money and Jerry legend you don't got a chance
oh boy
jerry gonna take him
let him come home jerry
By blackace Go To PostSteve Ballmer money and Jerry legend you don't got a chancemaybe kawhi is really iffy with body odor, people acting a fool and sweaty shirts
maybe ballmer gonna go nuts in the meeting and scare him away
pray to jesus this happens
By DY_nasty Go To Postainge played himselfBut he has so many assets. Someday he’ll do something with them!.
By rvy Go To Postmaybe kawhi is really iffy with body odor, people acting a fool and sweaty shirtsHeard the Warriors need a SF
maybe ballmer gonna go nuts in the meeting and scare him away
pray to jesus this happens
By reilo Go To PostThose picks they'll own in a few years gonna be money lmaowe can talk about that later
By diehard Go To Posti still cant believe how much energy was spent on hyping up those guys the Lakers just traded awayAy you gotta lie sometimes to rep your squad
By rvy Go To Postwe'll hope jimmy really thinks he can get a chip with la and sign a 1 year deal, he can get paid next year with another teamJimmy been pretty blatant that Jimmy gonna get PAID. Particularly since Chicago screwed him.
By diehard Go To Posti still cant believe how much energy was spent on hyping up those guys the Lakers just traded awayhonestly, i dont think Ingram is some bust - he just damn sure aint the KD in waiting that everyone said he was when he got drafted. Black Keith Van Horn is good enough and still by far the best SF nola has had in years.
Considering how most guys do better after they leave LA, I think this is pretty solid man
By DY_nasty Go To Postainge played himselfYeah a bit. i think this season soured the Celtics on going all in on this team, and just going back to rebuild while good mode.
That said, the roster unhappiness was always going to be there with the lack of play time for people. They really needed to move a few of Rozier / brown / smart etc.
Then again, the Hayward injury probably made them scared to do that.
Still, a spectacular fall from grace.
By blackace Go To PostHeard the Warriors need a SFI can see it
By masud Go To Postthank god, i would rocket launcer msg if they got rid of mitch.
Good. Don't get fleeced.
By DY_nasty Go To Posthonestly, i dont think Ingram is some bust - he just damn sure aint the KD in waiting that everyone said he was when he got drafted. Black Keith Van Horn is good enough and still by far the best SF nola has had in years.oh it's a super solid return for NO. It seems like everyone is just comparing the players without considering circumstances.. LA couldn't wait another year because of what PG13 did to them and gave up basically all assets they had spent 6 years acquiring by being bad, just to skip a year.

By Red Blaster Go To Postyou see it too huh
I really don’t want to go for another star. Just get 25 million in role players and preferably some that can shoot
By Nelo Ice Go To PostBut he has so many assets. Someday he’ll do something with them!.
By Fenderputty Go To PostI really don’t want to go for another star. Just get 25 million in role players and preferably some that can shoot
By diehard Go To Post25 mil doesnt get you what it used to, especially in regards to shooters.
Sure but we need depth now, not another all star. Try and fill roles and do the best you can
Just sign Kawhi. AD's Bird rights and the fact that there's a max salary are the biggest things we have going for us right now. Kawhi is worth $50m a year, and he can only get low 30s. Get him and fill out the roster with ring chasers.
By DY_nasty Go To Postlmao so rude.
lol the disrespect
By Fenderputty Go To PostSure but we need depth now, not another all star. Try and fill roles and do the best you canI mean, this is definitely the correct attitude to have which is why i bet it wont be the Laker fan majority opinion.
By Kabro Go To PostReally dont understand LeBron/Klutch's infatuation with Kuzma.It's rich paul trying to act like he's an owner with out paying up.
Pelicans should trade Jrue, sign D’Lo in free agency, and actually run 4/5ths of the “Lakers young core” experiment.
PG: Ball
SG: Russell
SF: Ingram
PF: Randle
You could do a small ball lineup with Hart that gets you all 5 on the court.
That’s a playoff team IMO.
