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


Christie, DFS & Vando (lol) is the closest we’ve gotten to the 2020 build. That’s some good defense right there.
Teams need another playmaker/shot maker unless they really, really trust Knecht to help out AD, Brkn and Reaves.
 
Still need 2 more trades.

1. Get a big man
2. Clear out the forwards. IF Vando ever comes back, they’ll be struggling to get guys consistent minutes.


Have to hope DFS can still shoot. If he comes in and shoots like he did in 22-23 and 23-24. And there are no other moves, the team got considerably worse.
 
DFS is typical 3/D guy, rebounds well, streaky shooter, 31 years old.

He’s probably a better FIT than Rui
 
team must believe in Gabe now, more importantly himself

Can’t have AR gas down the stretch

Also dfs bout to turn into an expensive TP

Remember when EYE told y’all about max Lewis
Spent 4 mil to move up to draft him in the 2nd

As for dlo, he will be missed
That trade saved us from the terrible rust period
 
Just woke up and saw the news…

A trade that saves the team money. Shocking. :{

Hopefully a second deal follows that doesn't save money. 🙏

I would be interested to see Vando actually have two legs again (lol) and he plays with AD, DFS, Max and swap Bron/Reaves that lineup could be interesting defensively.

But I think they are going to miss DLo more than folks want to admit. :(
 
Wait, the Lakers FINALLY make a move and some folks still not happy?

Pelinka didn’t overpay… traded an expiring and some second round picks. Saved money, which who cares but it probably makes future deals a little bit easier to get done. Speaking of that the team still has those future firsts which can be used for something bigger. Filled a position of need, and Milton can give you some decent backup minutes at point.

Plus it only costs them a dude who had no future on the team… no need to point out all of his flaws since they’ve been repeated multiple times over the past couple years.

IDK man… no complaints from me 😂

:lol

Yes, just what we all should want, the biggest brand in the sport making moves like they're the Memphis Grizzlies. 👍

If it leads to a big(ger) deal, then they did great. And I hope that happens.

If this is all they do, then they didn't do anything.

We’re happy.
 
Walker Kessler and one of the Klutch Jazz guards, Sexton or Clarkson (lol) is sitting right there.

But probably at the expense of unprotecting the 2027 pick, future FRP and Rui. Ainge gonna probably one one more sweetener too.
