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

BSPN fooled us all.

Ever occur to you guys that magic knew PG wasn’t coming weeks ago. That’s why they don’t wanna trade kuz BI Hart + picks for kawhi. That woulda been ok if we had George and LeBron but just kawhi and LeBron with zero bench and no money to add any more players is dumb. Especially if LeBron has been wishy washy all along and therefore it might have been just kawhi, zo and nobody else. If we sucked with this team- kawhi maybe doesn’t resign next year? U never know Just my opinion

Looking back at the press conference, it's clear they got word that PG wasn't coming. Probably had a good idea they weren't getting Kawhi and Bron as a result

 

[Mr Dink]

The way I see is that a Kawhi will bring us LeBron. I'm willing to give up Ingram, Kuzma and a 1st.

Would you rather have Kawhi and LeBron or BI and Kuzma?

Young BI and Kuzma with the potential to grow and become stars > 33 going on 34 year old Bron and injury-ridden Kawhi.

Yup. Hence the “do you know who I am? I’m magic Johnson”

That was his response to LeBron and PGs people telling him “sorry man no hard feelings”

You can love your young players and not hype them up at the same time.

They don't have to be better than Bron and Leonard, they can just be good young players

Yo HIM . Like one more of my posts and watch what happens. Keep acting like I don't know your zip code. Have your abuela sold to the lowest bidder. Try me

Jesus this thread is full of a bunch of grown *** babies . If Bron comes than great we'll be a playoff team & could sign back the youngins & some good role players, If he doesn't We Still Have a good young roster who can compete for the playoffs this year & continue to add assets through the season & FA.

All three were an EXTREME pipe dream, Getting Both Lebron & Kawhi is gonna cost us any depth & assets going forward to get beat by GS for the next two seasons & have to rebuild again

You've just been making a lot of astute observations and comments. I have to applaud them.

 

[purpnyellow]

Moe signed We ain’t making any trades

 

[laker4lifeman]

That doesn't matter anymore we have the cap since PG isnt coming

 

[thasoleful1]

Ingram and 1st round pick should be the only deal on the table

hello as top flight internet security guard of the los angeles lakers offseason thread im gonna have to ask you peacefully to remove yourself from the premises at once or else...

No. Means we cannot trade Wagner for kawhi for 30 days. Which means we’ve given up on trading for kawhi. Which means LeBron already moved on

Time to move on and focus on summer league. Looking forward to it. Hope Wagner and svi are steals for us.

Swagner

Mission accomplished

 

[CP1708]

Honestly, I never had expectation. All the big name free agency talk was just rumors. I never realistically thought we'd get stars from 2013-2017, we were a bottom 5 team in the league

Then stop posting emotionally every five minutes. Relax and let the summer play out.

 

[LebronHasMoreFinalsMVPs]

Huge signing
Let the core grow
45 wins this coming season

 

[Maximus Meridius]

lol I don’t even want bron here but it’s sucks striking out year after year after year

Who have we missed out on that's worth it? LMA? Derozan? Dwight leaving?

PG is the only one that made real sense.

 

[BIG LEEMELONE]

It was Lance Stephenson and IT the year Kobe got his deal. Lol

 

[thasoleful1]

Wagner and Newman signed.

At least we signed someone today....
