2025-26 Team Developments: Trades / Free Agents / News / Rumors / Ideas

I have no idea who is that but he can kiss my a**

 

We have a new name we're linked to -- Ryan Rollins

 

The only thing he got right, is the defensive aspect.
Shooting? Naw, we have plenty of weapons.
Worse than last year? Naw, even with only the mediocre Ayton and promising LaRavia, we are better. Rob is surely not done.
Saying the opposite is just blatant anti- Laker bias.

 

Bleep em all seriously if they can’t see what’s truthfully happening with this squad’s potential ALREADY with multi moves to come, and having a true Big 3 as multitalented as we have, with health and a full training camp to prepare and Luka Doncic on a seek and destroy Mission!!

 

we have defensive concerns, but there's a lot of fan/media cope happening with the ayton signing because they lost the "they have no center" pillar of the argument in a way that will allow us to solve other problems in ways advantageous to us.

sure, right now okc, houston, denver, and maybe minnesota are better than us, but it's hard to make an easy case for anyone else. maybe cleveland in the east? maybe ny (and i'd definitely call that a maybe) and we have clear paths to improvement that don't involve losing key players in the process.

we're fine. if things go poorly, we can completely re-set next offseason, too.

 

we're not getting whitmore lmao

 

Bontemps hates us. Not sure I’ve ever seen him give us credit for anything.

 

Any chance we can get in on Kuminga? I’ve never really known the rules on sign and trades. I still like him, he’s just a terrible fit in the Warriors’ offensive system.

 

For 30 + millions
Lakers would need to trade everyone

 

LMAO
They are really bored

It should be noted that this is just a speculative and fun exercise to see what kind of moves can be made, not what I think the Hawks or any other teams should do or will do. That is all.
Hawks Receive: Moses Moody and Gui Santos

Lakers Receive: Buddy Hield, Brandin Podziemski, Trayce Jackson-Davis, and Jonathan Kuminga (sign and trade, 4-year $120 million deal)

Warriors Receive: LeBron James, Bronny James, Dalton Knecht, Shake Milton, and Jordan Goo

I think Lebron, the GOAT in his eyes and many others, is struggling with the decreased media attention. He was 2nd team All NBA last year, and then the team didn’t bother make an announcement about him exercising his option.

IMHO it’s an ego and respect thing in his mind. He’s the aging star who has been replaced, and its new territory. He’s experiencing a lack of leverage and the front office not fawning all over him for the first time.

we didn’t even try to extend him, and are basically viewing him as a 50+ million expiring contract. How dare we!!!! Nobody controls the future of LBJ except LBJ!

will he try to make one more power move and try to dictate how he finishes his career on his terms? If he wants out, I think we oblige him, but the 50 mil salary makes things complicated.

 

he's a northeasterner.

 

With Melton I am going solely with the opinions of all I respect and trust here, have not watched one iota of tape. I did say "or someone else" (of that defensive level ability that can still shoot). We now have scoring up the butt, and DLO is gone so I ain't worried about that nor should you be.

 

What is this Lebron stuff all about? SMH That dude isn't going anywhere, if he asked for it, Rob would sign him for 3 more years, he already said that.

Follow Kobe's statement, embrace this guy while we still have him!

 

We'll see bro.

 

Aquire talent on the cheap, win-win scenario every single time!
