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

[tupac003]

We played out best when we had Dwight and Javale taking the majority of the season minutes at 5.

AD would play it late in games and that was just fine.

AD playing an entity season at the 5 just ain't it so far.

 

[noblekane]

were gonna have to get someone fast yall or its bye bye playoffs.

trade anyone not named lebron, reaves, westbrook, or monk for miles turner

then pray tristan thompson or kevin love get bought out.

keep ad in rice until the playoffs.

sign lil zeke for the remainder of the season.

 

[DLF]

Not worried. Lakers will be 1st place in 4 weeks.

 

[noblekane]

we really thought deandre jordan was a good signing....

 

[BIG LEEMELONE]

Reminder that THT can't be traded until January 15th

Define “we” cause it was obvious he should’ve been out of the league last year.

 

[tupac003]

Wish we could have kept Javale around.

Always productive.

 

[anomolie]

Season is
Over

 

[DLF]

Nah. Wasn’t a big name enough. We had to get rid of him to get NBA champ and former DPOY Marc Gasol. Big names. Former award winners are our forte

 

[DLF]

discuss ballsackers

 

[noblekane]

unless dan gilbert sells the team i doubt lebron wants to go back there.

then again it is ballsack sports and their track record is flawless

 

[tupac003]

Probably no real truth to this but nah....

 

[pmatic]

Hypothetically, you may end up losing Nunn and Monk at season's end. So if it's THT for Grant basically, it's not bad.

Especially with ADs injury but then again tht can’t be traded til Jan 15. Then again Ad will take 2-3 months to get back

Lebron next year for Mobley, Garlan and Jarrett Allen

Isn't Grant due an extension?

No

 

[tupac003]

No

Coo. Someone had said that here in the thread previously.

 

[pmatic]

He's a free agent in 2023. So he's eligible for an extension after this season.

My bad champ he is due an extension
I thought he signed a 5 Year deal DET it was only 3 I’m seeing now.

Yes you’re correct for some reason I thought he signed a 5 year deal

 

[grittyman]

Coo. Someone had said that here in the thread previously.

I brought that up.

Got to factor that in when thinking about trading for him. Also, at the moment AD and THT (might have a team option on Reaves, not sure) are the only players signed after next season. Would you want Grant on the books or as much cap space as possible? That of course depends on what happens with Lebron…figuring Russ won’t be re-signed as well

 

[Brosizzlew30.23]

Westbrook
Reaves
Bron
Grant
AD

Or

Westbrook
Reaves
Bron
AD
Turner

Lakers give up the same assets to get either JG or MT.

I'll go with the latter so broke down AD don't have to bang with Ayton, Jokic, Gobert, Big KAT, and Steven Adams in the playoffs.

 

[DLF]

Reaves is a two year rental. Jeanie will not sign him bc of tax implications
