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

[cruzair13]

Dwight back..
He fell off hard but he will flourish as 5th option behind Bronny Sr, Brow, Kuz; CarusGod.

As long as he knows his role we good.

 

[atlsfinest]

This is Dwight's 4th redemption tour. He always says the right thing and screws it up every time. I'll believe it when I see it.

 

[illvine]

Idk y’all. I think PJ wanted Ho Grant, like he wanted Harper and even tried to bring Dickey Simpkins and Jason Caffey to LA.....never happened. I don’t think it was about Rice wanting a bag. (Did he ever get a bag at that stage of his career from Nee York or Houston ?). I could be wrong

PJ wasn’t a Rice fan iirc. Fox was a better defender and passer in the triangle

I was actually watching an old Laker Pacers game in the Finals the other day and Phil started benching Rice for Fox in the 4th quarter because Rice was trash on defense and i guess Rice was pissed about it.

Now as for this Dwight news, im not a fan of the guy in the least but if he plays his role and does his part to help us win then i cant complain

 

[VinMillerHearn58]

It’s a non-Guaranteed contract. I’ll take it.

 

[Mr Dink]

As long as Dwight comes in and does his job, I'm for it.

 

[krazyrodzilla]

 

[mr j 858]

Since Dwert’s contract is non guaranteed.

Test him out and as soon as Iggy gets bought out from Memphis.Lakers should be cold blooded and cut Dwert ASAP and sign Iggy.

the obsession with iggy is just hilarious

 

[mr j 858]

the obsession with iggy is just hilarious

The obsession with former Lakers like: D’Lo, Randle, Lonzo, Ariza, BI etc. Is even weirder

On NT’er straight turned in his fan card and stopped posting in here but kept lurking for years.

Others continue to slurp on the former Lakers and pledge to wear former Laker Lonzo jerseys when they go to live games at Staples

 

[geno90221]

Soooo why are we still carrying Boogie on the roster?

i guess we all have our weird obsession with certain players, its fair not gonna lie, i do want lonzo back, 1st day he's eligible for trade or as a FA lol

 

[moonman818]

if dwight is really healthy and in great shape, how are they gonna justify keeping him on the bench? i can't imagine javale outplaying dwight in practice

This is a great problem to have

Honestly I hope he does well the next few seasons in Nawlins.

But lets be real here we all know him and Lavar are going to be demanding max $$$ once his rookie contract is up wether if the Pelicans or another NBA team or a team in China pays him

And you know Lavar is going to come out and start saying and pushing whoever drafts and get LaMelo is where he wants Lonzo

 

[drewsone]

Soooo why are we still carrying Boogie on the roster?

dunno. maybe banking on a miracle? lol
i mean when he came back for GSW he def contributed
maybe they're hoping same thing will happen idk lol he's gotta have to try to keep that weight off through the injury though
he came back to GSW fat lol
lost it all for this year then

Need to just release him now he’s not coming back he’s done

 

[drewsone]

call Jeanie BussyBeaver

 

[Mr Dink]

Will Boogie be ready come playoff time?

AC Green was on his last legs, Rice wanted to get paid and the Lakers had Fox already.

Made sense to trade for Grant. It's funny looking back how the Lakers were always rumored to be after Laettner and PJ Brown back in the day because they kept getting roasted by the PFs in the West like Duncan, Malone, KG, Sheed, Webber, Dirk, etc.

Horace Grant signed as a free agent.

Pippen wanted to be a Laker also and Phil wanted him but Dr. Buss said no because of Scotties ugly contract Houston gave him which is why Scottie ended up a Blazer and taunted Phil, Shaq, and Kobe saying he knew exactly what plays were going to be called during the 2000 WCF.

Scottie his post Jordan & Bulls career tried so hard to prove he wasn’t just Jordan’s side kick and could lead a team to a championship on his own.

 

[aepps20]

Very proud that Dwight is back. In.my short time as a Lakers fan he has always been my favorite.

 

[WAKKO!]

Damn Dwight still put up great numbers

 

[Los Angeles]

Rebound and block d12 thats all u gotta do

 

[Lizakers]

Horace Grant signed as a free agent.

You sure? Maybe the second year he was with us was as a free agent, but that first year he came in a 3 way trade LAL-NY-SEA

 

[D_eezus]

Kuz is coming home.


Rest up and let’s focus on the season now

 

[ekrev98]

Kuz got cut from team USA. No reason for me to watch another team USA game. Lol
