By diehard Go To PostWhen it comes to Laker fans thinking they need another star vs some good role players i just don't think this applies.
It depends on who the star is. I'd rather have Kawhi or Kyrie than depth. I'd rather have depth than Butler. Kemba I'd be on the fence about.
IMO if you have the chance to get a player who would be worth more than a maximum salary if the individual max didn't exist, you have to do it. Aside from getting stud players on a rookie scale, it's one of the few ways to get excess value.
By Pac-12 Go To PostThat's why the Knicks will have to pick him 3rdKnicks picking maple mamba.
By unknown Go To PostKnicks picking maple mamba.
RJ hasn't done anything so terrible to deserve that.
By Pac-12 Go To PostRJ hasn't done anything so terrible to deserve that.He will be joining a great organization.
By blackace Go To PostRandle just declined his optionJulius?
Doesn't he become redundant with Zion?
If Randle can become that paul millsap style PF he'd have a lot of value ...
By rodeoclown Go To PostKyle Lowry is a five time all star. Dude literally carried them in game 6. He's more than a quality starter.
This is bait.
By diehard Go To Posta team with 1 superstar and quality starters literally just won the chip
The throughline of where the Lakers currently are, and where the raptors are, is literally five years of development and luck.
73 win Warriors weren't built overnight either.
By blackace Go To PostRandle just declined his optionYeah, which was expected. If he opted in, it would have only been for 9M. He should be able to easily beat that on the open market this off-season.
By Trey Go To PostThe throughline of where the Lakers currently are, and where the raptors are, is literally five years of development and luck.Yeah, it just took injury-deflated contract for a player that stayed healthy and lots of other luck.
73 win Warriors weren't built overnight either.
By Trey Go To PostThe throughline of where the Lakers currently are, and where the raptors are, is literally five years of development and luck.This team will be likened to the Heat and Celtics last title teams, not the Warriors or Raptors.
73 win Warriors weren't built overnight either.
73 win warrior team could've been constructed with a maxed Curry. Curry being on a low-ball contract plus the cap jump allowed them to get Durant too. And having all those bird rights allows the warriors to keep the train going as long as they want, provided they want to drop 1.5 billion for a few more championships.
Point is building a "balanced team" doesn't happen in one season, and is really incompatible with having superstars/max players already on the roster.

By giririsss Go To PostJulius?Only if he learns to play defense.
Doesn't he become redundant with Zion?

By blackace Go To PostWizards working out White and Little 👀what pick wiz got again?
By unknown Go To Postwhat pick wiz got again?9th
By blackace Go To PostAlmost kinda see the Pels reaching on Reddish if they dont move the pickdo not want
By Kibner Go To Postdo not wantI honestly think it would be better than drafting Hunter Garland White or Little...
Culver is interesting but still feel Cam is better
By Pac-12 Go To PostNot gonna lie, I'll be mad as fuck if Reddish is actually good that first year.Just be further proof that Coach K is washed
By blackace Go To PostJust be further proof that Coach K is washed
This is truly101 territory. Been trying to send K to Shady Pines since the aughts.

Fuckers forgot to detonate that shit at the end.
By reilo Go To PostI'm not one to condone jersey burning, but AD kinda earned it with how his team handled it lolMaybe, but jerseys be expensive in general.
That was what, 10 of em? :|
By reilo Go To PostI'm not one to condone jersey burning, but AD kinda earned it with how his team handled it lolThe Pels are in a great position tho thanks to how AD handled it 🤷🏾♂️

The preceding message has been brought to you by the Salvation NBArmy.
shit i wish Hayward would have been like "I don't care if I become an All-Star and we win a playoff series, i'm still out". Maybe could have gotten something.
By Kuma Go To PostReddish going to be better than RJneither lived up to their hype...
By blackace Go To Postneither lived up to their hype…I'm not saying i wouldn't be surprised.
I would be.
But RJ didn't exactly make it impossible for it to be believable.
By s y ngmi Go To Postkawhi is 100% rolling a bluntThe concentration. The posture. You might be right...
By DY_nasty Go To PostIs it even possible to top that deal lol
I am adding first picks as fast as I can captain
"Yeah, Dan, this is Dave. Rob is willing to send us every draft pick they have for the next decade and 4 of of the 5 titles from the 80s. Just wanna know know if you can top that, maybe throw in Larry Legend and Bill Russell's legacies. Call me back."
By pilonv1 Go To PostCeltics won't even make the playoffs next seasonThey're moving west?
RJ averaged 23 pts
and no one believes in him lol.
I never seen a prospect that is high on boards with $TAT$ and yet everywhere I go people are like "nah".

Well first off he Canadian... and his 30% 3P shooting on over 6 shots per is a little alarming...
if he works on his playmaking he might be super dope
