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

[Lizakers]

Crazy how Jeanie hasn’t learned from the Kobe twilight years when we kept striking out on FAs.

This summer is legit the last shot we have cuz 35-36-37 year old Lebron ain’t attracting nathan

Kobe is trying to make Magic Johnson money. How the **** does grueling away being the PBO for the Lakers help him in anyway?

That’s really what’s wrong with this franchise lol.

“We’re struggling and we’ve hit a roadblock, what should we do?”

“Hire a former Laker to do it! It’s the Laker way. They know what it means to be a Laker!”

You’re a multi billion dollar corporation that ppl would kill to work for. It’s a dream job but the only qualifications are: “Do you know Jeanie Buss?”

35-37 year old LeBron > post Achilles Kobe. Mitch and Jim giving a 35 year old post Achilles injury a huge contract was an awful decision.

Anthony Davis in his prime requesting to play with Lebron = LMA, Melo & Derozen passing up playing with Kobe

That’s some funny math.

He didn't request ONLY to play with Lebron and the fact of the matter is he can't choose or make that happen now. If he doesn't get here this summer I'd be interested if his feelings change when he's not dealt here when Bron is in year 17 and still declining.

And we going to just completely ignore the giant elephant in the room of Klutch just happening to represent both AD and Bron and how the perception is Rich is just trying to get his best friend some help.

I love Kobe
And Lebron is an all time great

But you can’t deny that players aren’t lining up to play with 35/36/37 year old stars past their primes

This summer will be it. We’ll see what happens.

MVP real slick.

You been buying into this "nobody wants to play with Bron" story but AD's whole circle has come out saying he wants to and you like "Well not exactly...". Give it up pimp.

Bruh.

What more can Unibrow do or say to make it known he wants to play with Lebron

 

[WAKKO!]

Kobe would be the one to draft European prospects

Davis didn't provide a letter from his agent specifically stating he wants to play with LeBron

He also said he wanted to play for the Knicks. I never said AD didn't want to play with Bron. I said it doesn't matter for the purposes of this summer since he's not a free agent. That's the entire point we have this summer to add without having to give up anything.

And again we'll see how adamant AD is about playing with Bron when he gets dealt elsewhere. Cause I remember PG was willing to play with Bron in CLE if traded there yet when he had that opportunity to come as a free agent, changed his tune.

i feel good about vogel. i think lebron’s going to work with him. he really doesn’t have enough time for a reset. frank could very well be the last decent coach of his nba career.

 

[ValarMorghulis]

I like Vogel man idk

 

[moonman818]

Vogel coached Pacer team pushed the Heat to the brink back in the day.

 

[drewsone]

Very true
Remember they were down in the series and it took Wade and Bron having like 40 each to come back lol

 

[BIG LEEMELONE]

I like how he got kinda pissed off after that disrespectful *** question about him being a last resort . Came back and said any player that's worth a damn wants to be coached hard etc. He's got some moxy

 

[MVP]

Who cares he'll be gone after next season anyway

 

[Lizakers]

Weird. Is miles Simon being retained? Saw him shaking hands with Vogel yesterday. Thought he was Luke’s Arizona boy and would be let go.

 

[mrdieselfuel09]

Vogel about to be the glue that keeps the Lakers franchise together

 

[had pants]

 

[delete1234]

Lol we know he here for them off court business ventures I ain’t mad at em

 

[MVP]

Trash
