While I’m not particularly enthusiastic about Kessler due to his lack of fit with AD because of spacing concerns, I do like the idea of utilizing...
Yeah this needs to be considered for sure. 24-25 is Kessler enough for us to win the championship? 25-26 Lebrons last season. How good are we at...
I like Kessler more as a long term replacement for AD than as a current complementary player to AD. Sure, Kessler could take on the role of...
I wonder which direction they go? Rui + Vincent + 2029 1st (unprotected), and 2031 1st (top-14 protected) for Cam Johnson works. Brooklyn mostly...
Yeah, that is a tough one. I like how Bruce could play 1-3 on defense and offense. He also hits 37% of his corner threes. If we send Vando + Gabe...
This is a lateral move, but just a random trade thought: Vando + Vincent + two seconds to Portland for Thybulle + Williams. Thybulle is a little...
I am not sure if they are that concerned with backup center. It's a 12-14 mpg role. They might just roll with what they have, especially with DFS...
We haven't seen what it looks like yet, but having Max and DFS in the starting lineup perhaps allows Reaves to play with the required usage for...
In the 2026 off-season, Lebron is projected to retire, and the Lakers are projected to have a ton of cap space. Lakers could also trade for Luka...
Yeah because they are tanking. Everything is the opposite when you are talking. Part of me was hoping Gabe would get hurt so his value would...
They had to get him off of their team LOL.
I really hope they were not just being cheap. Yeah good point about us cutting someone. Maybe we cut Hayes or something, and then convert...
Isn't DFS a power forward? We already have Lebron and Rui.
I would have been open to trading Austin straight up for Herb Jones or the LaVine trade with Coby White also coming back. But now, I am feeling...
Yup. Dlo/Vincent/Wood/2029 1st (top 7 protected), and 2031 1st (unprotected) to Brookyln for Cam Johnson/Sharpe works and leave Lakers 6.2 million...
Russell, Vincent, Hayes, 2029 1st (top-13 protected), 2031 1st (unprotected) to Brooklyn for Johnson and Sharpe. The Lakers take back 5.67 million...
Reaves/Dlo/Rui/Wood/2029 1st/2031 1st for Fox/Huerter. Then, you still have Gabe/JHS/Hayes/Maxwell to try and get a center.
Hopefully, we only have to give up a first.
Dlo/Gabe/Hayes/ two firsts for Johnson/Sharpe opens up 5.67 million under the apron. Heck, we still would have JHS/Wood, etc. to use in a trade...
I mean yeah, there is a way. But it would take some cap gymnastics. Just because Gabe is playing well doesn't mean we must hold on to him now....
