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

[darthska]

Thanks for clarifying

Hopefully we can move on from this (non) debate now…

It's a novel (yet difficult) concept:

I don't know if that's helping, Pops. Telling the world that he doesn't GAF is only going to fuel people's fire to go harder at him, methinks.
If he doesn't care, let him do his thing and... not care.

- You love Jeanie & Rob. Yes
- You think Dr. Buss was a horrible owner. No
- He knows what you're saying even when you don't say it. No
- If he's wrong, actually... you're wrong. No

I think those are the main points.

1 outta 4

 

[darthska]

1 outta 4

That's 1 too many. For what I was doing, I should have been wrong on all 4.
And if you're saying 1, then it's actually 2 (unless you acknowledged being wrong about assuming what he was saying and I missed that. If not, that's 2, minimum.)

Can't wait for people to interpret what he REALLY meant.

He loves Jeanie and Rob

Same as me.

After the word 'since', you misspelled "I was wrong."
Someone not saying what you said that they said is not a *censored* technicality.
That's just being wrong.

Jesus Herbert Christ.
You really could benefit from learning how to debate.
Or socialize.
My god that was a reach.
"What? I'm just curious how literal we have to be now."
You said he said something that he didn't say.
Keep it simple... or avoid accountability.
You've clearly chosen your path: being messy to avoid accountability.

The funny part about all this is you do the exact same thing, with me.

I say something about not being able to build around a 40 year old star (and win) taking up max space (now minus a couple mil) and you turned that into me being anti LeBron.
You even tried to insist I want Bronny to fail as an NBA player.

Then you post subliminally about it for weeks on end.

But sure, go on. Tell me more about how to socialize.

It's so easy.
I did that intentionally, dude.
See how instead of making something up or deflecting or denying or editing or playing stupid or anything else messy, I'm just keeping it simple?
Yep. I did that. Intentionally. Why? That's a different convo. For purposes of this conversation and this Uno Reverse you're playing: Yep. I did that.
Your turn.

That’s why they pay rich Paul to say things

“The job’s not finished” is exactly what he meant

Pelinka gotta get to work

 

[darthska]

Now that I agree with, on both fronts.

 

[Brosizzlew30.23]

Get it done Rob

This is about the best option to improve the roster without giving up a FRP and still allow them to sign a 3&D wing with the TPMLE

DFS, Cam, Grant - None of these guys are worth 1 let alone 2 FRP’s. Why not negotiate the Bulls to give a FRP for taking Lavine.

Zach / Dinwiddie or Lowry / Bronny
AR / Christie / Knecht
Bron / TPMLE / Lewis
AD / Wood / Hinson
Vuc / Hayes / Castleton

Options for TPMLE - Sadiq Bey, Lonnie Walker, Gary Trent Jr, Gordon Hayward, Jae Crowder, Marcus Morris, Rob Covington, Doug McDermott

 

[noblekane]

gonna be wild seeing lebron play like he does at 40 years old

 

[noblekane]

i bet you your favorite 6xl jersey hes a starter for the lakers opening night

Another solid trade scenario that would thrust the Lakers into title contention however Lakers would certainly have to give up draft picks to acquire Brown, Olynyk, and Kessler

*Non-Laker related post… but it’s the offseason and thought this was interesting so just sharing because. Offering PG 2/$60 is crazy



Also, has nothing to do with Jeanie and Rob for all you mind readers out there

 

[pmatic]

Isaiah Hartenstein money.

 

[CP1708]

Has nothin to do with Jeanie/Rob but mentions them anyways.

Prolly nothin to do with Ballmer either.....

At the co-host saying that's crazy, when in they mind they like "shhh i would take that right now".

 

[grittyman]

Isaiah Hartenstein money.

Isn’t that less than what they gave Beard?

They must know something that we don’t cause that’s not even a real offer imo

'Yea bro that's disrespectful'
