Right. All we need with Bron and Davis is an all star point guard who can dustribute tge ball and shoots well too.
Damn... with Bron and Davis, you can live with two other good players added to the team and compete for a championship. |
If you know of any available for a few mil, you should call the FO immediately. |

Yes and people keep forgetting about Kuzma. Remember he averaged 18.5 pats last year and I believe he scored 44 pts in 3 quarters one time it was a Laker record? |

F**k Kawhi.
Obviously the Lakers knew because they had all these offers pending to fill out their roster.
To the insiders, who kept hopes up and their sources saying it was done, your sources suck and they didn't know squat. Obviously whoever had their hopes up, were very disconnected from this entire process.
I like the roster we are putting together. Some shooters now.
Anyone left to try to acquire?? Which vets? Bring in Vince Carter, Iggy? korver? |
I'm with you anth2k! I like how the roster is rounding out. (bleep) the paperclips LET'S GOOOOO!!!
Yall need to learn to appreciate what we have. Lebron and AD WANTED the Lakers. Now get Morris and Iggy. Let's do this! |

Lakers still 2nd favorite to win it all next season. This will be an exciting team to watch. Just wish Pope would pull a Collision and retire. |

Kuzma is key. If he continues to develop and plays better defense, we may have had our ‘big 3’ all along. Guy has been good his first couple years and in year 3 I believe he takes another step in becoming more of a complete player |

?/Cook/Daniels
Green/KCP/Tucker
Lebron/Dudley
Davis/Kuzma
Mcgee
We are in dire need of a good PG. But there aren't any good ones left. I hope we sign Caruso and survive long enough until decent PGs hit the buy-out market. |

Agreed. The kid needs to step up and become a legit two-way threat. _________________ "Chick lived and breathed Lakers basketball…but he was also fair and objective and called every game the way it was played."

We are lacking a playmaking guard. All we got is KCP. That’s gonna hurt. |

2 positions need help, PG and C.
I'd like to see a pickup of Avery Bradley or pushing the Wolves to match on an offer for RFA Tyus Jones.
At C, I'm not a big Boogie fan no matter the price, but there are not a lot of serviceable options at C available and who knows about him taking a small offer. |

Kuzma with defense is a better version of Siakim. I just haven't seen the foot speed from Kuz to think he can be a high level defender. I hope he has the work ethic. It's one thing to say the right things but it has to translate to the court. Having dinner with Kobe and working out with Artest doesn't mean anything if you don't apply that knowledge. |

His name is Lebron. It may hurt during the long haul of the regular season when he misses some games, but this was proven in Cleveland to be an overrated concern.

All they need to shoot for is homecourt, and that even might be overrated. |

we have 3 guys that can stroke from 3
Danny Green led the NBA at 45% from 3
Quinn Cook shot 40% from 3
Troy Daniels shot 38% from 3
our biggest weakness for ever. |

Be done w/ that cok-roach. Pure punk move to use 2 teams the way he did, and piss on "his right". I'm not pissed at the Lakers for trying to hit a home run with their money to secure a championship, but please no more weirdo types in the near future for the love of GOD. FO, learn from this. He really left the Raps twistin in the wind, too. Title or not, their heads are probably spinning too. _________________ GOAT MAGIC REEL
