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

[SORIANOTRON]

AC's offense >>>>>>> zo's

 

[okevonz]

smh can't even tank right... lol

 

[drewsone]

AC ballin man

must mean he not getting resigned lol

 

[Lizakers]

Zo
99 career games
49-50 record
10/6/6 average
#2 pick

Next 2 years will be huge if he wants a big payday

I expect a serious offseason of working on his skills. I don’t see him changing mechanics though

AC ballin man

must mean he not getting resigned lol

He's definitely going the way of Thomas Bryant, he's going to have a solid NBA career on another team and we'll be saying "man how do you let that guy walk away for nothing?"

 

[atlsfinest]

AC's offense >>>>>>> zo's

it's pretty incredible to watch the point guard that can actually shoot off the pick-and-roll.

 

[tupac003]

Now down to 11th...smh stupid Lakers.

Winning games that don't matter.

 

[BIG LEEMELONE]

I like winning. Screw tanking. We've been doing that for 5 years. Enough already

 

[MVP]

I hate this team, run by idiots

 

[DLF]

I hate this team, run by idiots

I agree but what do you expect them to do?

This is a team led by Caruso and KCP and we beating playoff teams

 

[titang545]

Sigh another useless win.

 

[MVP]

I agree but what do you expect them to do?

This is a team led by Caruso and KCP and we beating playoff teams

I expect them to tank like they did 2 seasons ago, whatever it takes. No reason for us to be primed for the 6th spot at the time of us being eliminated from the playoffs and now be in 11th. They should've shut Bron/Kuz down immediately after losing to the Nets and even these couple wins the scrubs have gotten us wouldn't have mattered.

 

[BIG LEEMELONE]

Who do yall like that much in the draft outside the top 4? This draft is buns and the pick is probably trade bait regardless

 

[MVP]

It's pretty clear that the pick is going to be trade bait but isn't that intrinsically enough of a reason to try and position yourself to get the highest pick possible? Especially in a weak draft outside the top 5? The higher the pick the less other stuff you have to put into a trade package or the more value you can get for that single asset.

 

[DLF]

No kuz no ball no LeBron no BI

We got a bunch of 1 year guys in the lineup playing for a paycheck next year. And a coach who is auditioning for another job. So ya we are doing what we can. Shoulda done it earlier but it doesn’t matter when we did it if KCP playing like Kobe

 

[aron710]

Anything can happen in the lottery. I mean, CLE did get two 1st picks in a row so

 

[Lizakers]

I hate this team, run by idiots

E?

 

[drewsone]

9% chance for a top 4 pick
have seen crazier things happen

 

[D_eezus]

Wouldn’t be surprised if they land us at #2

 

[BIG LEEMELONE]

I don't think any pick from 5-11 is that distinct as far as value. Basically a wash

 

[Brosizzlew30.23]

Who do yall like that much in the draft outside the top 4? This draft is buns and the pick is probably trade bait regardless

Not sure if he will declare for the draft but I like Diakite from Virginia or the big man from Gonzaga, forgot his name.

 

[MVP]

Can't make this **** up. Mintz going to **** us again.

 

[BIG LEEMELONE]

If anything he's gonna screw Zo. Hasn't really worked out too well for PG and Randle as far as team success

 

[Lizakers]

He picked pelinkas enemy to be his agent
Wow
