Correct. Obviously the Lakers can't follow the same roadmap as the Spurs or OKC at this point- but they can look to them as reference points...
That's not happening. Reaves has some sort of back injury too right now, remember? Respectfully... You do realize that Giannis has worse health...
A bit, yes, but he’s still projected to be a late First Round pick in mocks. Mara’s been climbing up as of late. I suspect what’ll happen is Mara...
Quite possibly. This is actually part of why I'm so staunch on the idea of the Lakers taking initiative to secure drafting a similar sort of Big...
Maybe, but I could also see Presti being savvy in wanting to secure a rather valuable First from a rival team in OKC's conference that'd...
Denver's Michael Porter Jr. trade for Cam Johnson just last year. Also IDK that Cam Johnson's value is going to be particularly high this summer,...
I've provided an argument for why we could get Eason multiple times over, but I'll expand on it a bit here. At the end of the day, Eason is...
Yeah, I'm not out on Tari Eason personally, so long as we can get him at a good price. Dude's crazy athletic, he'd bring genuine size to the team...
It's a pass from me in general, because Giannis would immediately take up all of our incoming free cap space and I just do not think there is any...
I wouldn't be so sure about that. Granted, we'd probably still need to do Center by Committee for the first year or two to let the rookie develop...
Yep. As I've said in the past, Eason is 'expendable' to the Rockets in a way that Watson isn't for Denver. Granted, Eason being in a bad slump...
I'm not sure tbh. I still feel like Eason is more doable than some folks give credit for personally, but if neither him or Watson wind up being...
I completely agree with this assessment. It's why I'm always harping on the angle of "Trade for Lu Dort, Draft a longterm Center or two and S&T...
Okay, so there is another potential Center target that the Lakers should consider looking at picking up if we buy into the early Second Round or...
This would be a good off-season for sure. But I definitely will be vocal as long as I can about the idea of us also trying to find room and means...
As an East Coast Lakers fan, I would argue that the best way to helping improve the Eastern Conference involves moving a good team like the...
Completely agreed, which is why I'm so vocal about the idea of us trading the '31 First to OKC, along with maybe a couple of pick swaps to help...
I don't trust Thybulle's health at this point. Only way I'm onboard with him personally is if we're paying him at around either a vet minimum or...
The top targets IMO for the Lakers as far as 3&D players go are still Watson and Eason, along with Dort. I'm almost out on Herb at this point,...
Kinda hard for them to do multiple salary dumps when they're basically tapped dry of draft capital to attach as incentive. They'll be able to...
