I was curious what else they wanted alongside Ingram because obviously Ingram straight up for Cousins wasn't going to work since the Lakers are...
"In fact, the summer signings of Deng and Mozgov were precisely the sort of middling additions with minimal upside that the Buss siblings agreed...
But Vlade is going to say he wants Ingram though..... :Laugh:
Imagine If the Lakers did trade for Cousins. He can get a 5 year 180 million extension this summer. Which the Lakers probably would consider...
Never said they would be anything resembling Cousins. I said I think both will be huge pieces for the team going forward and I am perfectly fine...
Fwiw I am glad the Lakers didn't trade Ingram for Cousins. Don't get me wrong, I think Cousins is an absolute beast and would have been a huge...
No it didn't and I'm sure there are numerous other examples of someone trading with an organization they were formerly affiliated with. I was...
I applaud the Lakers' effort in trying to trade Deng but good luck with that. As for the Cousins deal, the Kings got fleeced and the Lakers could...
I don't see Julius + JC even with a top 3 pick being enough to lure an All-Star (unless it's an aging All-Star who was gifted an All-Star berth...
I wonder about Clarkson's trade value. His contract isn't bad but he is owed over 37 million the next 3 seasons. That's still a sizable contract...
I like Ball over Fultz and Smith but I'll take any. Pretty much why 75% of my posts since joining this board have revolved one way or another...
Sessions averaged 12.7ppg 3.8rpg 6.2apg and shot 48.6% on threes in his short time with the Lakers and was a starter in the playoffs for that...
I don't see it as prohibitive either. I was just noting that it could be longer than Lou by one year and that the long term deal would be a...
When I say "outbid" I mean I think they'll be willing to pay more for Hill than the Lakers would, not so much that there will be any type of...
Looking at the Wizards' salaries, I don't really see one that lines up perfectly where his contract is tradeable with Lou, equal or shorter in...
Perhaps Chicago when they dump Rondo but obviously only if they keep Wade/Butler and want to compete. Detroit if they trade Jackson. Indiana if...
I like Hill but he'll be 31 in May and won't come cheap. While I am certain he won't disappoint like Deng or Mozgov, I'm not particularly high on...
Problem with that is all the things we are criticizing them for, you have to imagine opposing GMs are noticing as well. So I think their value to...
I still like DLo a lot but I've gone from "future stud with 20-5-5 talent!" to "He should be moved full-time to SG and I think he can be a good #2...
The Lakers have drafted well - esp. with Clarkson/Nance making the list and also we can all agree that Zubac is a great find. That said, playing...
