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

I don’t see Kuz getting traded any time soon. My guess would be they wait until trade deadline to see if he can still fit between Bron and AD. I still think his value is at a all time low especially with his current salary situation.

Lakers waive Quinn Cook. It'll be interesting to see what parts they add going forward.

plenty of quality guys becoming free across the nba
In Rob we trust

Javale back

Plus, noone else was gonna pay him $4.2M

 

[thasoleful1]

Dammit

Filler for a trade or eat up minutes during the regular season. Not even mad.

 

[lovehateself]

KCP def staying now that Atlanta made that trade

Orlando is letting Wes Iwundu go. I thought he showed flashes in the bubble and I remember him killing us in a game this year. Could def use his toughness and athleticism.

BYE BYE

Kuz? Defender?
Oh no.

 

[drewsone]

would like AB back if he's willing to accept a reasonable contract lol
seme to be stuck with Javale

think dwight just want a reasoable guaranteed contract too considering he was playing on that weird non guarantee contract

 

[nermindee]

Why is Avery trying to play? He cited covid concerns IN THE BUBBLE. Does he not get its more dangerous now? This dude went from BLM reasons to Covid reasons and now he wanna play like covid went away...

 

[sb]

regardless of kuzs short comings, he is a potential asset to the lakers at his salary. if he pans out, he stays and resign him or trade piece. if he doesnt, hes a low cost player. makes no sense to get rid of kuz without getting a good return. on that note, glad danny is gone.

 

[nermindee]

Kuzmas cheap contract is the only reason he hasn’t been sent away

 

[DLF]

Lol at whichever team overpays for Gallo or bertans or Hayward like Deng type deals

 

[pmatic]

Should be a fun weekend.

 

[DLF]

My “realistic” wishlist

keep:
Kcp
Howard
Kief
Dudley on minimum

Bradley if small deal.
Rondo if for vet min

(basically run it back lol) and add a Harkless or Mathews.

 

[pmatic]

Really curious how Pelinka plays this.

The team needs another center (Dwight? Boogie?), stretch big (Kieff) and backup SG (Wes Matthews?). I expect KCP back, the only question being will it be for one year or two years.

I'm a natural pessimist so I don't expect Ibaka or Gallo.
