    With our team, he would have zo, Ingram, lebron if he signs for that pick and roll also, but wasnt he also a worker for the boards? And his defense was actually pretty good?

    Who on our roster is hitting these wide open 3's? Kuzma, Ingram and Hart are the only 3 that are even close to being average from distance. Are we bringing in Korver or other shooters over the age of 35?

    We just drafted 2 shooters; and we will probably add more, yes.

    As I stated awhile back, I was hoping the lakers would sign a big and either lebron or lil Georgie. Anxious to see how all this plays out

    LeBron is a decent shooter, Ingram shot nearly 40%, and Kuzma and Hart are both good shooters. Wagner and Mykhailiuk are solid. Lonzo showed flashes.

    I'd make this move and try to bring back Randle off the bench to split minutes with Capela. Bring in Randle and push the pace, turn that into our death lineup. I've been advocating having a big rim protector and lob threat though so I dont expect many to agree.

    So we're relying on two rookies to fill out our shooting needs. Cool. I'm just in the camp that Capela is likely going to be Festus Ezeli.

    Oh, here's a thought... We don't want to deal with Mintz (sorry Jules). But we're looking at other center options cage we don't see him there as a long term fit.

    But most of these names linked to us are a leverage ploy by agents cause we are THE only buyers on the market to surround Bron with once (if) we nab him. I think we're only legit in talks with Boogie/Bron at the moment. Once those guys are locked, we'll start looking at the Amir Johnsons of the league.

    Btw, if Jules does not sign the QO (expires Oct 1st), he remains a RFA next summer as well.

    Kuzma, Ingram, Ball, Hart, Mo, and Svi.

    Internal improvement and will likely add more shooters.

    It isn't about pitch. It is about $$$$. Houston can offer more than anybody else...

    But I like the idea of doing after him; you never know what could happen...

    i think houston has issues if they want to s&t for lebron, and getting capela's number up could help screw up those chances.

    to me, it's a sign they're worried about houston swooping in, AND they're covering bases in case they get shut out.

    good thoughts.

    Especially since 5 year deals are not possible without bird rights.

    The amount of sauce that it would take if the Lakers did that kind of deal for an Amir Johnson would drown a whale, hahaha

    Dude's finger got stuck on the zero key at the end there. 5 year, 10 million seems about right.
