Of course I would like a third star I just don't see a route for us to get there.

In his first year here there was a game where someone crashed into LeBron's knee and bent it back a la Bynum and this dude just kept playing like nothing happened. Before the ankle sprain you didn't even hear any of the washed talk like you did the past two seasons which is crazy for a 36 y/o 18 year vet. He's not a human being

I’m hopeful that someone will get Kidd out of here.
We need a real offensive coordinator next to Vogel.

I don't know if anyone follows the draft, but two guys I would target with #22 if they keep the pick:
Chris Duarte (Oregon)
Trey Murphy (Virginia)
Duarte is old for a draft prospect, but he has a good skill set to come in and contribute immediately. Murphy might be the best shooter in the draft (shot 50/40/90 this past season).

Im about to start doing my research even though I anticipate them trading their pick on draft night.
Desmond Bane from last year’s draft would’ve been a great piece on this team.

I wanted Bane, Xavier Tillman or Malachi Flynn last season. Jury is still out on Flynn (looked good at the end of the season), but Bane/Tillman played well for Memphis.
I also liked Jordan Nwora a lot, but he sat on Milwaukee's bench the entire season.

There's a 0% chance that we keep this pick. We're going to trade it in a package to get some immediate help on this team.

I honestly don't think they have to go for a third star this offseason, because of cap it's hard to predict what moves there gonna make. I keep hearing we need shooters, but shooters only come cheap if there one dimensional.
I would really keep my eyes On Demar Derozan in a S&T, he still provides no three point shooting, but he lives at the line & is still good at creating for himself & others.

Kuz poison pill expires June 28th. He will undoubtedly get packaged with the pick and others to try and get someone. doesn't have to be a "star" need someone steady enough to carry water while OldBron and AD aren't in/on.
S&T rules changed a couple years ago, but Schroder's has to be the top priority. I wanted DD last summer but I don't see how it happens. For one, it's the Spurs you'd be working with. Two, what kinda money is he looking at?
Ultimately that'd be ideal with him coming back to LA but I just don't see it. Rudy a free agent too. Another target.

I want to re-sign ben mac and give him some burn and see what he can do for us.
in his super limited action, he LIT IT UP
I bet with legit minutes he could be a better option than KCP.
Probably cheap too.
Kuz and KCP tho, I’m not doing this another year. Not another year of disappointments.
I appreciate their contributions, but I think it’s time to part ways. Kuz can go sonewhere and be the scorer he wants to be.

Ben is for sure a better shooter than Kcp but we can’t discount what Kcp does on defense.
Vogel & the Lakers’ identity is defense. It’s hard to go all out on defense and still have the legs to shoot threes at a high clip. KCP is a dog on a pretty good contract but he shouldn’t be our 3rd best starter.
Would love Ben back though. Would rather teach my shooters how to play passable defense over picking defenders that can’t shoot.

I hear you but KCP offense almost negates his decent defense, yeah he gets stops but he can’t hit open shots?
=/=
at least ben is young enough where he can work and improve on being a decent defender, I got more faith in mac as a defender than KCP as a shooter.
