Agreed, it's better to be a bit more professional here with Denver in our likely pursuit of acquiring Watson in the offseason.
I can certainly see Denver wanting to be spiteful, but it's important to remember that Watson has to agree to any Sign & Trade that Denver might...
I'm absolutely doing it if it means we're getting one of their good players in Lu Dort and one of their multiple First picks in what is arguably...
I'd be shocked if we successfully trade for Watson with a 2nd and a Pick Swap. Dude's gonna cost us a First for sure, especially considering the...
I absolutely love this scenario except for one thing; Nic Claxton. I've been trying to get onboard with the idea of trading for Claxton for over...
The only backup plans I can think of at the moment are either: Go after Andrew Wiggins somehow If we get Dort and either Ellis or Grimes,...
I'd love to pick up Grimes in a vaccuum, but I'm wincing at the thought of having such a small starting lineup between Austin, Dort and Ellis or...
I'll be frank. Giannis is not a great basketball decision for the Lakers at this point in time. He'd be a phenomenal financial decision in...
You certainly bring up a valuable point here and I think it's likely a big part of why Luke Kennard has been so effective for us since the trade...
This is exactly the reason I really want Watson and it's also the same reason why I prefer him over Eason. Watson, in the best case scenario, is...
As an aside, I spent all day yesterday at the ACC Quarterfinals. I got there late for the first game and only caught the second half of Virginia...
No, you're right that Houston doesn't have to trade Eason or someone on their roster away right now, except for maybe FVV. But it's specifically...
I agree that Dort's whistle is probably going to get way more brutal for him the second he leaves OKC. That said, I do think he's still a young...
It probably is on the low side for Eason, yeah. I'm just not sold at all on the idea of overpaying Keon Ellis so much and I'd rather get creative...
IDK, I think we can do a S&T for him for $20 mil, so long as it was guaranteed, since that was apparently a key part of the holdup for Eason...
Honestly the fact that we realistically can only go after two starters this summer makes me that more concrete in my belief that we should go for...
I mostly agree that we can’t properly get all three starting positions that the Lakers need to addressed filled in one offseason and that the best...
Can’t elaborate my thoughts too much right now since I’m still at the ACC games, but I completely agree with these posts. Trade for Dort on Draft...
Yeah, I'm getting more and more onboard with the idea of us getting Dort. I fully expect him to get his fouls called way more often by the refs...
I really like the potential duo of Dort and either Eason or Watson. IMO that's a relatively gettable "Starting Foward/Wing duo" for us, especially...
