**LA LAKERS THREAD** Sitting on 17! 2023-2024 offseason begins

[BIG LEEMELONE]

If anything this shows why we should've taken buddy over ingram

Woj just tweeted we discussed parameters on a Cousins deal but the Kings ended it this afternoon. Kings looking primarily at the Pels.

 

[pmatic]

Phew.

 

[thasoleful1]

Just read Sac asking price too much. Guessing they asked for DLo and another young piece. Or Ingram and another young piece

 

[BIG LEEMELONE]

You mean Calderon wasn't enough to get it done?

 

[lovehateself]

Momo tweeting Kings wanted deal centered around BI
Prolly wanted Randle / d'lo and Zu


**** that

Well I am really glad us hiring Magic Johnson is working in these meetings like y'all said it would
Asking for BI is OD tho lmao

Woj tweeted again saying Sac wanted BI in a package deal.

Kings wanted Brandon Ingram in a trade package for Cousins, but Lakers refused to include him, league sources tell @TheVertical.

Calderon + stock in his ham business seems like a fair deal

 

[BIG LEEMELONE]

It's a recurring tactic for the Lakers to leak that they refuse to include a young player in a deal. Vividly remember Bynum stepping up his game when it came out that they refused to include him in a deal for melo

 

[lovehateself]

Only way I give them BI is if they take both Moz and deng

[VinMillerHearn58]

Probably a combo with any of our young guys

BI + DLo or JC or Julius

If we gave up Randle or DLo for Boogie, I wouldn't have had a problem with a trade to the Kangz

Let's throw in whip

Melo ?
Or was it for the infamous "ship his *** out" regarding a deal for j Kidd

 

[VinMillerHearn58]

Boogie and AD in New Orleans would be pretty dope though.

At least we were in talks this time

 

[BIG LEEMELONE]

Nah it was the year after that I believe. It happened midseason, possibly before melo ended up in new york

 

[EddieDoyers]

Boogie and AD in New Orleans would be pretty dope though.

They still would be 1st or 2nd round exits

 

[kingjaffejo]

Welp! Where is Whip? lmao

Sweeping up the barbershop

And someone tweeted that Cousins is unlikely to re-sign with any team that trades for him . NO probably getting a 1/2 season rental.

 

[thirdtimearound]

Whiplash in shambles rn

 

[VinMillerHearn58]

Looks like boogie doesn't have to fly back to Sac. He's just been traded to NO.

Whiplash in shambles rn

His barbershop sources let him down
