Our we need another shooter, but our defense is going to be spectacular.

Vet shooter, I'm sure he's going to get spot minutes but unlikely a lot this season with all the guards on the team right now.

Yup, totally fine with that.
Go into 2019 with a healthy Bron, improved BI, Zo and Kuz and then sign Kawhi.
Really want to keep BI, think he's gonna take another leap this year.

So if we keep Brook, then we basically swapped Randle and Ennis for Lebron and Rondo. Lol. Ya I’m good

I can see Svi getting that Norris Cole role. Kid is going to be nice.

Just doing some quick maths,
Bron/BI/Zo/Kuz/Hart/Mo/Svi = 59 million next summer
Adding Kawhi (32 million)= 91 million
Cap is at projected at 109 million.
Trading Deng's expiring deal at this point leaves us with approx 15 mil in cap space (cap holds)
Stretching the last year of his 18 mil takes us down to about 11.5 mil in cap space.

The idea that Boogie is ring chasing is idiotic.
He isnt ring chasing. He is rehabbing an injury. Just because your favorite team didnt want to sign him to a contract because of health concerns, doesnt mean he is chasing a ring. Most likely, he was getting spurned by other teams, so he said F it, I will take a one year deal, get healthy, and sign a big deal next offseason. The ring chasing argument is really, really stupid.

His cap hit is only 3.5 mil as opposed to being 7.6 this summer.
That's if you need that to get another supplemental piece.

The biggest wildcard is the ego issue. Because all those players are on 1 year deals they’re going to want to play so we will see what happens. But I think injuries are going to be a big factor too because knowing the Laker way half of our guys will be injured for half the season

Bruh, while you said allot of accurate things in here, dude is doing all that, while ring chasing. He called the back to back champs and took a pay cut. Ring chasing. Said his only other plan was to call the presumed (by everyone) ECC, the Celtics to do the same deal. Why these two teams? Ring chasing. You think he would called Pheonix and took 5 mil? Has dude ever been in the playoffs? It's a pretty smart move on his part. Kill 20 birds wit one stone.
