Spencer Dinwiddie Discussion: FA

Rick Fox.

 

Only chance is if he REALLY likes being a Laker and Rob promises to pay him more every chance we get. Rob's not a Morey, nor is Jeanie. I think if they say they'll pay you in a wink and nod deal, they'll hold up their end.

Also how the DLO situation play out, that could entice him. If DLO leaves for more money, a big opportunity opens up for Dinwiddie. I don't want to lose DLO and if he walks without us getting anything in return, that hurts. BUT I'd even prefer losing DLO and inserting Dinwiddie into his role opposed to giving up anything for Trae.

 

If we manage to keep DLO, Dim and AR as our backcourt, we should be fine. No stupid Trae trades.

 

Keep this man. He's been so big for us defensively it's insane. he also had a HUGE 3 in OT!

He's just a gamer...he does not get nervous in big moments.

 

Spencer's part is from 14 minute mark to 50 minute mark

 

Dolomite with the 70s swag is doin work. He hit a bunch of 3s and defended.

 

he seems more than willing to give the team whatever they need on a per game basis. Having an unselfish player that is very capable and happy to be here is quite refreshing. He is filling a needed role every single night.

 

Didn't even dawn on me at the time we went on the Spencer Tour

 

Couple heads up steals. And as posted in the DLO thread, got some extra burn on his bday cause DLO told Ham to keep him in in the 4th.

 

Dinwiddie I thought be one of those heat check Vernon Maxwell types instead.

Instead he's turned into this POA defender who does the little things. Totally bizarre compared to his rep

 

Defensive hound and a lineup optimizer offensively... wouldn't have guessed.

 

can't remember which thread i was talking about this in, but i could totally see the FO not matching a rich dlo offer and using the wiggle room to offer full MLE to dinwiddie with a player option. i think we'd gain early bird rights, with the possibility of going to 175% of his salary the following season.

 

I’d hate to see DLO go but that would ease the pain a ton.

 

Surprised is not the word with me considering how well DLO has been scoring, AR not as consistently of late and Spencer only really that one game he started.

Seriously? What’s the sample size and how can that even be?

 

Going to need a little more offense tonight

 

I was really shocked to see the coach went with a 3 guard lineup.

 

Dinwiddie missed a bunny and a corner 3 that would have made the game interesting again but man what a pickup. Again where was this rep of him doing whatever the team needs - picks up the scoring if a guy is out, if everyone healthy focuses on D and being a facilitator.

I think people who only watch boxscore are going to be bit shocked how a healthy Laker team does with Dinwiddie

 

I wonder how we are going to afford to bring him back with the “star” chasing this summer?
He will sign elsewhere since he will be an asset to any team.
