2024-25 Team Developments: Trades / Free Agents / News / Rumors / Ideas

I know Knecht has everyone excited but AR has been a ridiculously good playoff performer: he was a beast against GS and the Lakers losing Game 5 really overshadowed how him and Lebron basically were really taking it to the Nuggets.

Basically if Knecht is even close to that good the Lakers will be a title contender

 

not sure about that. would be amazing if true, though. i think folks underrate just how good reaves is, tbh. he's not a star, but he's about as close as you get without being one. like, no way i trade him straight up for jerami grant.

edit: pioneer beat me to it. reaves is a 30-35 million per player that we're paying 14. just huge value.

 

He’s @showtime24 ’s favorite armchair trading piece though.

 

With the never guaranteed LUCK of decent to good health for ANY team …..

Winner Winner … Chicken Dinner! Not to mention if Koloko is healthy to play and improves on what he was doing 2 years ago in Toronto.

 

Any Laker in any right deal can go for the right player. That's just how it is w/me.

But with Reaves & other stuff, it likely would have to be for a top 12-15 player.

 

What would it take get Turner? What would you be willing to give up? Dlo, Lewis and two 1sts?

 

Not intentional. It just works out that way because he has been really the only player of value that we have on the roster besides Lebron and AD. I like him at PG though, and it looks like we need to keep our depth because the bottom 3 of the roster have been trash (JHS, Lewis Reddish). Bronny hasn't been great either but we don't expect much from him at this point.

 

Makes sense. Reddick talking about going with a 9 man rotation.
