Lakers currently have only 4 players under contract.
Kobe - $23.5m
Nash - $9.7m
Randle - $3m
Sacre - $0.9m
Total - $37.1m
If Lakers use the stretch provision on Nash's contract, his 2014-15 salary cap hit drops to $3.23m, reducing total contracts to $30.6m.
The 2013-14 salary cap was $58.7m. Assuming a 5% increase, it increases to $61.6m.
With the approximate $30m to spend, Lakers should approach Kyle Lowry, Greg Monroe, and Chandler Parsons to sign with the Lakers for $10m each.
Starting line-up: Lowry, Kobe, Parsons, Randle, Monroe
To fill out the roster, Lakers should consider signing/re-signing Aaron Brooks, Ed Davis, Kendall Marshall, Ryan Kelly, Robert Sacre, Greg Stiemsma (Split mid-level between Brooks and Davis).
This team should be one of the higher ranked offensive teams. Interior defense is lacking but perimeter defense with Lowry and Parsons should be good. |

Your numbers are a little off.
First, you have to account for all the open roster spots at the rookie minimum, so that's probably another $4-5 million or so for the 9 open slots.
Second, you're underestimating how much these guys will get. Monroe is restricted and his current team would match a $10 million offer. Monroe's agent is angling for a max contract - $15 million per -- and he may well get it.
Chandler, I think, will get at least $12. Lowry is a question mark. But none of these guys have made big NBA money in their careers so I don't see them coming here for below market value.
If things break right, I could see us getting two of them, not three. |

That Team will be very fun to watch (compared to last year), I MIGHT substitute:
Gortat for Monroe
Ariza for Parsons
C =Gortat or Monroe
PF = Randle
SF = Ariza or Parsons
SG = Kobe / Kane
PG = Lowry / Jordan Clarkson

It's funny when you put "may" and "book it" in the same statement.
When I flip this coin, it may land on heads. Book it!
Oh, it landed on tails? Well, I said it "may" land on heads, not that it will land on heads. |

I guess we get two of the five starting lineup? and 3 of the fillers..
and Zero on the Head coaching position. Great Job Front office. |
