Could be an interesting vet Min pickup

 

[MVP]

Yay more limited products!!!!

 

[MVP]

There's going to be next to zero market for all of our free agents

There's going to be next to zero market for all of our free agents

This **** worked out perfectly for the Lakers
Shoutout to the new CBA!
AR, Rui & Dlo on reasonable contracts will be AMAZING.

 

[pmatic]

 

[Korofi]

Rui, AR, Brook, and Dennis. Add in a PG and we good

 

[Korofi]

We gettin Javale back too

 

[sohi 23]

Bruce Brown & Lopez are the 2 targets they should be going after.



I wonder what the package would’ve been.

 

[MVP]

He would have been an upgrade over D'Lo but really didn't have anything to offer don't think Beasley Bamba and a pick gets it done but maybe.

 

[DLF]

Negative assets. Trading for expirings doesn’t help Sixers bc harden is an expiring himself

 

[BIG LEEMELONE]

Harden is just a more expensive version of D'lo

 

[essential1]

GMs and owners being as stupid as they are cautious. With the new CBA.

Fascinating stuff.

 

[pmatic]

Bwhahahaha.

 

[Lizakers]

Rui after a summer with Phil Handy

 

[sohi 23]

Bwhahahaha.

Expectation: Bruce Brown or Brook Lopez
Reality: Bamba, Dennis & Eric Gordon

 

[DLF]

Bwhahahaha.

Ahhhh feels good to be right.

This was a cost cutting move.

 

[DLF]

Bwhahahaha.

I’m very much lowering my expectations

I think they made room by getting rid of Beasley and Bamba so they can sign Shroeder (who Ham adores) to like a 9 mill a year (or probably full MLE).

Keeping Beasley and Bamba at 26 mill total was never gonna happen bc of tax bill.

What I expect:

MLE divided into 8/4 or 9/3. 8 or 9 used on shroder. The rest given to Bamba. BAE used on reddish

D’lo shroeder Reaves Vandy Rui lebron ad Bamba JHS Castleton (bc cheaper) Lewis Reddish

Zero mid sized assets asides to trade when teams wanna dump long contracts for expirings

 

[Brosizzlew30.23]

Brook > Bruce all day long

The fact that Ham coached Brook in MIL will be a factor.

Ntm, having Brown means less minutes for Vando since Brown plays both SF and small ball PF.

Brook is the way to go if Lakers want to compete with DEN and their bigs

 

[MVP]

Bwhahahaha.

Yuck

 

[reconic supreme]

Brook is a DPOY candidate but man his age gives me pause over Bruce. You can talk me in either one of them

 

[sohi 23]

If they end up missing on Brown and Lopez then they would’ve been better off keeping Bamba and Beasley.

I like the risk though. Gotta risk it sometimes.

 

[lovehateself]

when you get brook, not only do you get another dpoy candidate
you may also get robin lopez too, who can still provide a solid 10 min

rob gotta recruit mickey and include a magic pass and club 33 membership

 

[pdino]

Brook Lopez, Bruce Brown are good options for the mid-level. Brook a defensive minded center that would hold up against Jokic and allow AD to help. Spaces the floor, shoots good from 3, and can abuse teams if they try to put smalls on him

Offer vet minimum: Schroder, Jeff Green, Cory Joseph, Yuta watanabe, Svi myhailiuk, Drew Eubanks, Eric Gordon, Dennis smith JR, TBJ see what sticks

 

[BIG LEEMELONE]

Lakers did a good job of making it seem like they were really gonna go deep in the tax . There probably wasn't a great trade for Mo/Beas but still
