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

[grittyman]

TBH would rather have spencer in the rotation than reddish.

Reddish is a cool body to throw at elite guards from time to time but that offense is a net negative though.

Cant be playing 4 on 5 out there.

That’s fine too.

Not really tripping on Cam cause I’m thinking that the rookie could see some minutes at the 2 as well since there’s still a logjam at the 3/4 spot. He wouldn’t really be in the rotation but I had to put him somewhere.

Speculate all we want about running it back with the same squad but as long as AD is playing the 5 full time and as long as the Lakers don’t acquire a starting center, get used to never reaching the Finals for as long as AD is on this team

Thoughts?

Hopefully Giannis still gets some playing time.

 

[grittyman]

Thoughts?

No to Grant.

 

[pmatic]

Taurean went for the minimum lol. Amazing.

I mean you say that but watch them be a contender and he has a part in it.

I mean I said bring him back in the last few days. Especially if they traded out Rui or Vando

 

[essential1]

Thoughts?

For 2 FRPs, no.

Rui + Gabe and 1 FRP, sure.

And no to a FRP for Cam Johnson.

 

[Brosizzlew30.23]

Beasley - sucked with the Lakers (39% FG’s, 35% threes); thrived with Milwaukee (44% FG’s, 41% threes)

Prince - you already know the drill

 

[MVP]

Trade talks for Kuz, Grant, Bruce Brown, Cam Johnson & DFS.

I'd prefer Kuz or Cam outta that group.

 

[thasoleful1]

Kuzma reunion would be something

 

[noblekane]

 

[tay1]

I'll take the Flint legend Kuzma

 

[mrdieselfuel09]

Pelinkas only trade partner….the Wizards to the rescue

Everything is fine man. Don't be dramatic.

 

[darthska]

Surely you're not pressed over losing *checks notes* TAUREEN PRINCE.

 

[pmatic]

Everything is fine man. Don't be dramatic.

Not even mad because Max needs those minutes. And I think Knecht can step in and play 8-12 mpg.

Losing the value of a 6'7 wing that plays okay defense and shoots 37-39% from three just not good.

 

[pdino]

Prince shot 39.6% from 3, solid rotation player My main problem was playing him 35+ minutes. 15-25 minutes he's solid. Clears a few minutes for the younger guys

 

[noblekane]

can reaves and 2 first rounders get us kd?

 

[tay1]

Offload DLo or Gabe, an get a Center. Cmon Pelinkster

 

[Brosizzlew30.23]

Vucevic
Capela
WCJ
Olynyk
Kessler
Markannen

…..Should all still be in play if Pelinka somehow managed to avoid a new sickness inflicting thousands of Californians called Ham Disease

 

[Lizakers]

Prince got a lot of hate but he was solid and great value

Seems like he made the toughest layups all the time

We’ll be fine with Max and Knecht4
