    Lakers have already hinted that they aren't paying Randle the max. They want LeBron and PG. Once PG signs July 1, things will get very interesting.

    Duhh lolz. Jkz. Yeah I'm talking if no Lebron or Kawhi.

    That aside, when Paul George signs that's when Lebron gets an official erection and can't help but come. We've all seen and heard the smoke all the way from last year's summer league Lebron having a boner for lonzo and wearing a black and purple shirt in the attendance of the game.

    Cmon baby. We're owed good karma. 14/1 odds next year for the chip. Vegas knows the deal.

    It's not the Dwight Howard or Pau Gasol situations. Those guys are future hall of famers. Julius Randle is an Anthony Mason ceiling type player. If you lose him for nothing, it won't hurt anyone really. Kuzma is a PF in this style of era anyways. Randle isnt a Center even though some think he can play there.

    Nah, I prefer to work for myself not having to answer to anyone. Better life that way.

    wow you keep trying to one-up yourself with the worst player evaluations. Seriously. The worst I've ever seen. Won't even waste my time dissecting how wrong everything you said here was because you can't possibly be serious.

    Insulting me when I am right doesn't bother me. Insulting me in general doesn't bother me. The truth is all that matters. I am right on this and there is no insult that will change it. Julius Randle is an afterthought. The Lakers need A stars to go with their young core. Julius is a 4 year NBA vet with donuts after his name. Overpaying for donuts is the insult.

    i didn't insult you. I just stated facts. You've been proven wrong time after time. I could write a dissertation about all the matter of fact statements you have made that have been proven wrong, or were factually incorrect to being with. Not going to waste my time with that, but I can take the 15 seconds to point out that the only logical explanation is that you're trolling everyone here with your asinine takes in this thread.

    Easy tiger. If I’m gone, who will maintain www.ihatelebron.com ?

    Let’s think this through before we Willy nilly start killing off members. If anyone, start with superfluous infamous long posters of LLLLLLebron rhetoric like @vasashi17

    :Laugh:

    I used to think that too, but the more I think about our flexibility, I've made my peace with it.

    A 12M extension for Jules puts our cap number at 51M heading into the summer. Lets round it up to about 55M with our incomplete roster charges. That leaves us with about 46M in cap space. Not enough room for a maxed out George and Boogie (need 60M in cap), let alone Bron & PG (need 66M in cap). We would be roughly 20M short.

    Then consider stretching Deng and that opens up roughly 57M in cap. Again it's not enough to max out PG and Boogie, for the example.

    So the only way to create max space is to #DumpDeng.

    Under our current position, we have th ability to provide maxs to any combination of 2 players this summer and we don't need the assistance of another team to make it so (ie #DumpDeng).

    It's all about options/flexibility and not being at the mercy of other teams to make it so (see Houston and the cap olympics they works have to attempt to bring Bron on board).
