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

[sohi 23]

The best part about it is Boston isn't getting our pick next year

I lied. The best part is KCP is a Rich Paul client .

What can we realistically offer a team to take Deng off our hands?
I know we can stretch his contract next summer but im out of patience.

I want him gone now!

 

[Lizakers]

Randle + Deng to Chicago for Dywyayne?

 

[freeze]

Pope defense hard body overrated. Dead ***. Dude was getting roasted all season this yr.

 

[Lizakers]

The best part about it is Boston isn't getting our pick next year

So Boston gets it if it's 2-5, is that right?

 

[VinMillerHearn58]

$18 mil though, didn't we only have $17 mil in cap space? Who is going to be the odd man out?

Nwaba

 

[Lizakers]

Hope not, Nwaba can play

 

[sohi 23]

Could we trade KCP/Randle/Lopez/Brewer + Future Picks at the deadline for a player that's gunna be a free agent next year? They're all expiring.

 

[lovehateself]

Hope not, Nwaba can play

So depending on the exact $ amount of kcps deal, FO may have to shave some money off which could mean nwaba

Which sucks cause they I think they just picked up the option on his deal too

 

[fun guy]

Boston trades for lakers 2-5 pick. Trade bradely to detroit. KCP and Rondo screw C's out of the pick. Its like...Magic

[denni5themenace]

my guess is the 18M is a rounded number for KCP.

is nwaba's contract fully guaranteed?

It is not.

 

[alexody]

Just gotta get rid of Brewer/Deng someway somehow

 

[denni5themenace]

welp. see ya nwaba. it's been fun.

 

[VinMillerHearn58]

JC is probably going to start the first 2 games of the season since KCP is suspended for 2 games.

 

[fun guy]

Just gotta get rid of Brewer/Deng someway somehow

Brewer is an expiring contract why would we get rid of him?

 

[moonman818]

Nwaba will land somewhere

 

[freeze]

Not my dude nwaba. He comes with it every night. Max effort.

 

[Lizakers]

Brand Nwabian must stay!!

 

[P C H]

Not my dude nwaba. He comes with it every night. Max effort.

They can cut him and then just resign him once he clears waivers.

 

[mosk33toe]

If they cut him there is a chance a team swoops him up, we'll see, could be less than 18M too.

Good signing from the Lakers, granted I know nothing really of KCP but if he brings defense and a person who can run the floor and finish, it will be a welcomed addition.

 

[kingjaffejo]

Great Signing. Good fit if he can stay consistent thru the year
Nwaba goes no where ....he better stay
