    it's true, but i think we're so desperate that we keep the kyrie door open anyway... as much as i would hate to have him on our team (lebron's already here, which i'm still coming to terms with), it is still better than striking out, maybe...[/QUOTE]

    I agree 100%. Kyrie isn’t my first choice, but at this stage beggars can’t be choosers. I honestly feel we are a second 20+ppg scorer away from making some real noise in the West.

    well Ingram or Kuzma could've met that requirement.

    Lebron was a wide open layup everything before and after has been David Wesley trying to finish the break.

    Loved the cutaway at end of that clip of Kobe doing the same thing. Hopeful but worried, then Kobe "Mamba" elation!

    Kyrie is going to sign with LA. Book that s***. He knows that he can win with Bron, there is zero adjustment to his game and they compliment each other. It is going to happen.

    Our best case scenario is Kawhi, but Kyrie would also be an Grade A acquisition. The dude is a special talent and I can't help but love him more for so perfectly tanking the C Bags season. Also, it's tough to argue with the level of success he & LeBron have enjoyed together. There'd be no question about their fit together.

    Kyrie and Lebron are the only duo to take down the Warriors. Yes, Kawhi or KD is the golden ticket this offseason, but don’t sleep on the Kyrie/Lebron duo. They know how to win.

    Yep.

    Only thing that slightly worries me is his knee injury history, but when it comes to landing big fish in FA, you've gotta take that leap for a talent like Kyrie's.

    Kyrie is definitely talented. Its his health and sometimes just flat out weird behavior that concerns me.

    He's definitely better than nothing though. And if we swing a trade for AD we're really back in business.

    I dont mind Kyrie but our biggest swing needs to be for Kawhi. If I'm starting a team with today's players he is my first pick. He does it all and he isnt a douche. I think not being a douche is important.

    Kyrie is better than us striking out completely. Its pretty crazy that we are the Lakers, we have LA, and we have Lebron, and we still somehow found a way to possibly scare players away.
