    the injuries...i wouldn't give up much. moving kuz for him makes sense only because they'd both be FAs after next year--kuz will get more expensive, and i'd rather control the rights on a player that's proven more thus far.

    but you don't get much in return for Kuz, it would almost be better to give him his raise and then trade him. At least we could get someone better in return.

    Or maybe Kuz plays his way into or beyond that raise, like Clarkson ultimately.

    Why we need to keep Phil Handy around. Look what he's doing with the young guys.

    Man, this off season is going to be fun. There will be a lot of players trying to push their way to the Lakers. There was ZERO noise out of the LA Lakers locker room. I remember thinking this a month ago, it was like an epiphany, how has there been no one negative thing out of the locker room? This was the first time ever. Vogel and the stars should get more credit for that alone.

    Players see what is going on here. How they will held accountable and play their best with our duo. Veterans who still have something to offer and want to crown their careers with a ring. Very good younger players who will thrive in complementary roles. It remains to be seen who they will be. I don't think any team will want to help us via trades unless it's to weaken our core. So it's on to free agency... The pitch is already there.

    I was on the fence before but I’m all in now on trying to get Oladipo. Kuz and Green and filler is not bad for them if he wants out.

    Probably not. JR is done and Vogel just does not like Dion. We’ll need a new guard who can shoot and create some.

    If so, free agency went very wrong for us.

    Did we ever find out what Bron whispered to AD after the game? Seemed like AD was mad cause Bron was trying for his triple double.

    Yes. The exact wording was, "Meet me in Temecula!"

    Jordan Clarkson was mentioned a while back... Free agent (unrestricted?). Played with James in Cleveland.

    Clarkson would instantly turn into a playa in LA, and Bron would promptly strangle him.

    But, if we can’t find a better combo guard, he’d be good. Gives you 14-15 ppg, plays D, can shoot. He’s only 28. Knows “the system,” meaning he played with Bron. Would fit great with AD.

    thats fine if we do that id look to trade for Hield as well, he can start n jc can still be the offensive punch of the bench, worse case we could use em both as salary fillers if a max lvl fa wants to come in 21'
