I have Russell at 33M and Hatch at 17M worse case scenario. Reaves will get 11.4M regardless, but the offer sheet would likely be back loaded.
Seems like it would be difficult to keep all of our free agents and stay under a salary that would be acceptable for the organization. I mean,...
This would be really, really tough. I have payroll at around 190 million, and that is without Bamba and Brown coming back. If Lakers are hell bent...
I mean that would be great if Russell could get less than 33, but that might be kind of wishful thinking. Chances are, Dlo is going to sign a...
I have it sort of shaking out like this if we bring back everybody who we have control over. Seems Lakers management just needs to decide on the...
Good to here. Total salary would be about 191.5 million, meaning we would be hard capped, which is fine.
Lakers could also simply just ignore the super tax, and pick up the options on Beasley/Bamba, and re-sign Rui. At that point, the restrictions...
It looks like its going to be challenging to stay under the super tax and keep most of our players. Who would you all rather have: Beasley...
Yeah, hopefully those CBA changes will prevent some teams from offering reaves big money. I don't anticipate him getting quite that much, but I...
The new CBA should mostly be a positive thing for this Lakers franchise, since they are one of the last mom and pop type ownership groups. I...
AD to Chicago for LaVine, 2027 1st, and 2029 1st. Who says no?
Bamba is good to have because be helps replace some of the lost rim protection if AD happens to get traded. In the mean time, his floor stretching...
True. Bojan is an older, bigger, better shooting, less defensive minded, less athletic version of Eagle. Fans will love him.
Increases our chances of Bojan? Bev/Lonnie/2029 1st (top 4 protected) for Bojan?
Absolutely.
Lakers likely get Kevin Love in the buyout market.
It's between Lakers and Knicks now for Bojan?
Lakers, Knicks, and Bucks were in talks for Bojan. Bucks just got Crowder for 5 seconds. Lakers just acquired 3 seconds for Bryant. Lakers have...
There you go.
The market was set for a wing like Crowder (5 seconds). We are I'm good position for a wing now.
