I realize that. Offer sheets and renouncing RFA's are unrealistic. Lakers would still have to include the 2026 1st or something, but not a King's...
I want to believe that Lebron has bought in to playing off the ball (finally) and we win the chip, and he comes back for 20-25 million. That would...
Perfect outcome for us. We needed him to play like garbage, in order to minimize leverage for Houston. Still could be an option though. He's...
Lakers get: Anunoby + Hart Knicks get: Giannis + Vanderbilt Bucks get: LaRavia + McBride + Kolek+ Dadiot + #23 (Lakers) + #26 (Knicks) + 2031...
Yup. Also it would be interesting to see what Lebron does if we actually win the chip. I don't mind bringing him back for up to 25 million or so....
Yeah, definitely could be an option. Knicks only have the 2026 and 2033 1st to trade, and don't really have any good young players. Lakers:...
We still don't know if Watson's shooting is real yet, either. He could regresss like Eason. But its a gamble we woukd have to take. Not a large...
I'm hoping Smart just opts in too. If we had to chose one for the room exception, it would have to be Smart. His skillset is just more rare.
Yeah, it's really refreshing how Smart has essentially returned back to his old form, after dealing with injuries. He is probably going to opt out...
This series against Houston might show how important it is to have a Large size 4. KD and jabari Smith are tall. Need to try our best to get...
Yeah I know what you mean. He's been playing well since coming back so people have been jumping on the band wagon.This scenario we take a flyer on...
Resign Smart and Kennard, draft a Lob Threat / Rim-Protector, trade for Dort, sign Thybulle, Clarkson, draft 3 and D athletic shooter would be a...
Yeah hopefully that is the case. I'm not very optimistic so I like to use the lower number just in case. But either way I think we would be good.
Good to know. That would be great!
That's a great point regarding OKC and the pick swaps. Also, that is great information regarding Pelinka being at the Big 10 Conf tournament this...
I keep circling back to a draft day "bird-in-hand" trade. 2031 1st + 2033 1st to OKC for #12 and Dort. Due to Dort's bulk, Lakers might be...
The videos suggest that Mara is an excellent lob threat. Maybe in the mold of a Mark Williams, who doesn't need to have much of a vertical leap,...
LOL I guess Kennard sets a high bar?
Idk man, i don't follow. 40% is pretty damn good. You want him at 50% like Luke? Do you have some kind of data?
On a team lacking two-way talent, a Keon Ellis sort of combines Smart and Kennard if you will. We were supposedly interested before the deadline.
