DRAFT DAY TRADE Lakers send #25 to New Orleans for #58, 2028 Spurs 2nd, and 2029 Spurs 2nd. Lakers free up and additional 3.2 million in cap-room,...
(1) Trade Vanderbilt + Knecht + #25 + 2031 1st + 2033 1st to New Orleans for Jones + Missi (2) Sign Lebron for 15, Kennard for 12, Smart for 12,...
This might actually be one of the lower hanging fruits. The Pelican might want a firs-round pick, and we might wan't to cash our pick in for...
If Lebron agrees to a large pay-cut, then operating under the cap might be the way to go. We could end up bringing back Lebron, Smart, Kennard,...
The game reinforces the impact of a 2-way player like Smart. Not just him being a two way player, but he has intangibles. Leadership, gritt, sets...
Yeah, that's true about JJ. But, at some point soon, this kid is going to enter the rotation, and never leave. He's awesome. Jumps out of the gym....
Yeah, that's a solid plan. Basically replacing Rui with a better defender and arguably better athlete, without loosing too much of the shooting....
You officially have all the bases covered so you could say I told you so. :Laugh:
Yeah, so was i. Between the statistics of him playing with Luka, and the talk of possibly finishing with Cleveland, I thought he was very likely...
Yeah, those are great points. Seeing his own son in the same situation as the Rui's and the Knecht's of the world. It's another element that is...
To my understanding, the Warriors and Cavs will only have the 6 million or so tax payer MLE, unless they do some significant cap gymnastics. So...
Yeah, I agree that those were all factors. But when he was out, he probably was able to do a lot of self-assessing. The self-assessing likely...
Yeah, for a while there Lebron looked like he wouldn't be able to co-exist with Luka. Made many people feel like the Lakers had to chose between...
I know it could be hard to fathom how the guy is still this good at 41-years old, but 16-million for this version of Lebron on this team is...
Duncan (10.3m in 12-13) and Dirk (7.9m in 14-15) did take less money at the end there, and it's a good example for Lebron. However, Duncan's...
The team we have currently assembled is pretty solid, but we could still make some marginal moves or a big move. POA defender Marcus Smart has...
I actually do expect Thiero to take a big leap. He will very likely be in the rotation. But we still do need to adress our depth though.
I really feel like to fit Watson, Smart, and Kennard, Lebron would ultimately be willing to take around tax-payer MLE level money (around 6-8...
It would be ideal to get a useful player for our trash and picks, but we can't count on that. Ironically, Myles Turner could be a candidate for...
I'm thinking he will take less than 25m, but Lakers should give the man respect and keep him in the loop about it. They may be coordinating...
