For everyone saying sign Harris (and I'm one of them), announcing a deal before July 9th just gives ORL more time to plan their response....
Lakers are going to need Upshaw to go Whiteside on the league this year...and they have to hope no one tries to sign him away from LA if he plays...
Phoenix could put a lineup of Bledsoe, Knight, Tucker, Aldridge, Chandler with the Morrii and Len off the bench, although they would have to lose...
The one good thing to happen for the Lakers today is the Brandon Wright deal. He puts up similar stats/impact to Ed Davis and got signed by...
I think the strategy coming out the gates for the Lakers was flawed...again. They rolled out the red carpet to chase the big fish (Aldridge) when...
Not looking good for the Lakers right now. While they are "interested" in a lot of players it feels like they put all their eggs in the Aldridge...
Also keep in mind kawhi and green won't sign their deals until AFTER the Spurs are done shopping, which means they only count as theor low cap...
I'm assuming they have a way to make it work, wouldn't have done the deal otherwise. Maybe Duncan and Manu are taking the minimum, maybe they...
Nevermind, it just ended.
Meeting could still be going, although Jeanie sent out a tweet a while ago asking fans to use #LAtoLA...could have just been taking a short break...
Essentially NY is going after all the same people the Lakers are. We will see if letting Phil get away comes back to haunt the LAL.
Lakers can't get Jordan and Aldridge. It's way more likely that they are trying to clear cap space for RoLo, that way they can sell both Lopez and...
Even though he isn't the best fit, his "max" deal is about $16 mil. That means he is going to be on a good contract regardless, which makes him a...
Russell's pitch to Aldridge: http://www.silverscreenandroll.com/2015/6/30/8872367/la-lakers-free-agency-dangelo-russell-lamarcus-aldridge
Yep, I'm sure that's a deal set up if and when Aldridge tells them he's coming. Would clear cap space quickly.
This is where I think the Lakers have to be extremely careful to find the right guy in free agency. The older free agents won't want to wait for...
Expected, but still an important step before FA begins. [MEDIA]
Yeah I'm shocked, at his age I figured he would be looking to lock up something long-term. Guess he's going to try for his last big deal to come...
Well, so much for that. Scratch Luol Deng off this list, he surprisingly opted in.
I think LAL will really have to impress in meetings in order to get a top FA. If money is equal and you are 30-year old Aldridge it's tough to...
