Optimism Discussion: The Laker's Sky Is Not Falling

yeah, if we don't add any salary beyond next year and lebron walks, we should be able to retain all those guys (and goodwin/knecht/bronny if we wish) and have some space left over to maybe add a couple more rotation pieces in FA next summer. failing that, we could use the extra space to to eat some short-term salary and gather draft capital.

i know everyone wants us to strike huge deals now, but we've quietly positioned ourselves to not be totally devastated when lebron walks/retires--which was always going to be a major problem.
