If Denzel Ward slides, do they consider him over either of these two?
I never said I wanted a guy who couldn't space the floor and whose sole identity is defense and putbacks on offense. In fact one of the reasons I...
I guess I'm not as focused on the "floor spacing" aspect as you are.
Lopez is a capable starting C and the Lakers could do much worse than him. This conversation started when someone said that keeping Lopez (along...
I think a lot for Dallas hinges on what they do in the draft. Honestly, thinking about it, if they do draft a PF with a Top 3 pick like Jackson...
I prefer other options. You don't. Agree to disagree.
Noted. Thank you for the clarification. I still would prefer the starting C not be taking 341 shots within 10 feet compared to 325 feet from 3pt...
That's a great post @vasashi17 with a lot of very valid points. I think the only part I disagree with is that Randle would be Dallas' contingency...
That's a whole lot of effort defending Brook Lopez. Only part I really disagree with is saying 341 is the slight majority of his 794 shots because...
I don't dislike Lopez. I said he played reasonably well and is a generally capable player. I just want a more physical presence in terms of...
In lieu of signing any of the marquee free agents, use the cap space to absorb unwanted expiring contracts for picks. I'd target the Wizards and...
Take out Lopez and replace it with a different starting C and I agree. I know he played reasonably well to end the season (at least it felt that...
The bolded part is where we differ. I'm not approaching this as what is smart for the Lakers or what he deserves. I'm solely approaching it from...
As @Battle Tested20 noted, Randle was willing to take 12M last year but then went out and had an awesome year. Well most of the year anyhow, as...
I don't want Gortat for any actual on-court contributions. I want the 1st round pick that Washington would have to give the Lakers in order to...
Capela, as a defensive minded Center, is a very different player from Randle so I don't think their markets will cross. Gordon, yes. Likewise for...
Initially I just commented when someone said they'd be surprised if Randle got anything above $15-$16 million. I kind of just went on a tangent...
I'm a pessimist as well. I think anyone who has witnessed the last few offseasons for this team should tread lightly on their optimism this summer...
It's a common sense move for Wes to opt in any climate is what I am saying. Again, we are talking about a soon to be 32 year old coming off a...
While not as exciting as smoking PG, I think Kuzma at his peak can be an Antawn Jamison-type scorer - but a better 3pt shooter off the bat...
