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

[tatayniDarna]

man dudley doesn’t make sense lol. he old and slower than molasses

the idea is to bring guys with legs when ad/bron and kawhi goes into load management lol

 

[mrdieselfuel09]

Good at instigating. Picture a light skin Lance Stephenson without too much dancing

 

[junglejim]

Is Dudley any good?

He can shoot, play defense, and provide general goonery. Everything you want in a minimum contract

 

[tatayniDarna]

dont we already have that in lance?

 

[junglejim]

dont we already have that in lance?

Lance is not currently under contract

 

[thasoleful1]

Lance is a free agent. Lance is okay but too much antics on the court. Dudley brings that vet presence. Def will annoy the player he’s guarding. Rarely saw Lance be that enforcer player last season surprisingly.

 

[tatayniDarna]

Lance is not currently under contract

i know, im implying i hope it wasnt a decision between lance and dud.

 

[DLF]

How did we not go after WCS for 1.8 mill like GSW did?

 

[junglejim]

Just rewatch a couple of the sixers nets games in the playoffs and you will see why he is great to have on your team

I think that spot is for Boogie

 

[junglejim]

That and WCS ****ing sucks and thinks he is really good. Dude was talking about how much the kings are going to have to pay him. Dudley knows his role and doesn’t over play it

 

[thasoleful1]

Let’s hope Kawhi has the same mentality as Dudley

 

[Lizakers]

Back channels are poppin

We must have a verbal commitment from Boogie if Kawhi signs

And with Dudley we don’t need a vet locker room guy. Hello we have Lebron and AD and Kawhi and Rondo....not like it’s a bunch of young bucks in that locker room

Can you just tell us instead?

 

[geno90221]

Dudley wth
Does that mean Iggy ain’t coming?

He gotta get bought out first

 

[geno90221]

Can you just tell us instead?

Dudley is legit can hold his own against other wings

Tough and can hit an open 3 I take Him over JR Smith or Melo

 

[tonelow]

My stomach hurting.

 

[MVP]

Javele and Boogie > WCS

 

[junglejim]

Can you just tell us instead?

Basically annoyed the **** out of Ben Simmons all series to the point where he got some of the players on the sixers flustered and they got hit with technicals. Little **** like that

 

[Lizakers]

My stomach hurting.

Been had bubble guts for days now
Fun Guy need to hurry up

 

[BIG FISH]

Smh I feel like Fun Guy isn’t coming

 

[drewsone]

Smh I feel like Fun Guy isn’t coming

Yeah idk anymore man lol

Summarizes this years playoff series well

 

[defconzero]

“Kawhi is announcing July 3rd at Noon that he’s signing a 2+1 contract with the Lakers.

It leaks today, announced tomorrow.

2+1 Contract.

Kawhi’s personal doctor is on the team.

Kawhi has been told 66 is the upper limit of games he’d play. Regardless of season outcomes.

LeBron & AD have both told Kawhi he’s the lead.

LeBron has envisioned himself as a Scottie 20/6/6 lockdown defender.

Kawhi will wear #2.

Press conference is tentatively scheduled for July 10th. Where the lakers plan to have the roster set, and introduce AD & Kawhi.

AD straight up asked Kawhi does he plan on leaving, and he told him the day he retires.

Kawhi said he doesn’t give a damn about FMVP’s (Lakers tried to sell him on 3/3), he wants his family to see his jersey in the stadium forever(direct quote)"

Take it for what its worth, its apparently from the same source that broke DLo to the Dubs

 

[DLF]

Ya I’m about down to 20 percent chance of kawhi coming. We are really gonna be screwed.

Coulda had:
Bev at 12 mill
Cousins at 8
Seth at 8
Marcus Morris 4.8


WCS at 1.8
Iggy 2.5
Dudley 2.6
Rondo 2.3


Etc
