    don't see either guy moving to the lakers, but there will be interest in both. oladipo's injuries have to be really scaring people by now, though.

    turner should have pretty good value, i'd think.

    Ultimately, neither do I. I like Oladipo and think he'd be a really good fit with us. Really just depends on his market value. But I think a smaller market team will overpay and roll the dice. I could also see Cuban trying to pair him with their duo in Dallas.

    Contract year players who didn't play as well before the contract year are always a risk. Pass on Grant.

    Lakers need a 3rd superstar to lesson Lebron's load for more years than what he has on contract. Or, Lakers need to get a ball handling shooter. I wouldn't turn the roster over much, the chemistry is too good with this team.

    absolutely agree... or, with a considerably lower price tag, i may look into picking him up... he's not getting Danny Green money on this squad.

    Why the hell would you hire ‘Antoni when your best players are a big that actually plays in the post, and a pg who can’t make threes?

    Can't even make 2's. Mike Dantony had his chances. It's over. He should never be a head coach again in the NBA. Embiid will not last in the NBA too long. If I were Philly, I would trade him for great pieces to put around Simmons. And get a coach who has a system that will work to Ben's strengths.

    Yeah I love all of this. Who's the prime team good players will AGAIN want to ring chase with, now? Lakers. Last year a couple months earlier it would have been from the whole biased anti Lakers media .... "Oh he's definitely going to the Clippers or to one or two other teams ..... before he'll sign with the Lakers".

    Replace at least Dudley, Cook, McGee. Keeping Dwight and 80% Boogie will be back hopefully. THT can take Cook's place.

    Sadly, LT, next offseason, the tenants will still be the prime FA destination simply because these media will continue to push this narrative forward until it becomes true. These people will never lose their jobs for being wrong, and for being utterly wrong even, time and time again. Ballmer's pockets will, aside from the overall anti-Lakers hate, surely fuel this cause for years to come. I can only hope that the public could see through all of these shenanigans and the good thing is, I know a lot of the NBA players do.

    They already depicted Rivers as a fall guy because he wasn't able to motivate or adjust in the Denver series. New coach...new beginnings all that stuff. The Lakers? Well...good to be the villains?

    I look at it more from the players' points of view. They know what's up and saw what happened all season long and in the playoffs with the franchise player load managing, not looking like himself any more and then choking on the big stage. Vs what's cooking on the Lakers for real now.
