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

[alchemist iq]

Green was a great pickup. KCP is buns.

Crazy how many fast break points and bench points the Clippers got.

Man was out there on a cardio run. 27 minutes burn time!!! and zero buckets!!!! They could've picked up someone off the streets, and that person would have 2pts in way less time.

Mans couldnt score and was suppose to lead the second unit in defense and couldnt lock up Lou Will.

Trade dude for Iggy

Bron really ain't got no heart. Just let Kawhi come in and step all on his couch Chappelle style and did nothing.

 

[DLF]

Anyone wanna join me protest outside Staples after we lose Friday?

also, what does Arye or Cuffs say about game 1?

In addition, Jerry West wasn't gonna come to the Lakers when his son was on the squad running the scouting dept.

Jeanie wasn't also bout to hire old man Jerry, who wasn't and still isn't down to do the day to day grind that is required of a President of Basketball Ops

Negative. He wanted to come. We never called. He went the Clippers. Rest is history.

 

[DLF]

Kcp ain’t going anywhere. He has VETO power

 

[SORIANOTRON]

We only as good as our weakest link.........

Telling yall KCP is the achillies heel of this team, and it's a real issue because he gets so many minutes. Just so many wasted possessions when this guy is involved.

The KCP issue will have to be addressed sooner than later, dood is capable of loosing an entire playoff series for us if he keeps getting consistent minutes.Dead serious.

He is who he is, we saw him last year he aint gonna start shooting no better or magically improve his decision making.

He taking up valuable roster space IMO

 

[SORIANOTRON]

He still got the no trade clause? OMG if so

 

[pmatic]

If they can send KCP to a place where he can get minutes/shots, he will oblige. If he keeps his BS up, Norvell will get minutes over him, not to mention when Kuzma and Rondo return.

Come to think of it, I do remember reading something that said he did want to come but Buss never made that call. You right

 

[p0se1d0n]

I can’t stand KCP as much as the next Lakers fan but he’s not going anywhere. He’s the price we paid Klutch to bring Lebron and AD here. It is what it is.

I’m more concerned with Vogel’s inept rotations and running of the offense.

 

[Lizakers]

We hate KCP
but point guard Lebron keeps giving him the ball lol
And idiot Vogel actually gives him playing time

 

[Brosizzlew30.23]

Once Caruso and Rondo (he serves a purpose, trust) come back, it slides KCP behind Bradley and Cook in the guard rotation so there's no need to even be remotely worried.

 

[had pants]

 

[p0se1d0n]

This Jerry West is “God” nonsense needs to stop. He’s just a consultant for the Clippers and was the same for the Warriors. Bob Myers built that team and Bob Sharman was responsible for the Showtime Lakers in the 80s. JW failed miserably in his stint with the Grizzlies. He would be doing no better than Pelinka with this Lakers team. Frank Lawrence is in charge of the Clippers FO and has made all of the decisions.... but some people want to give JW credit for everything. SMH

Baffling why KCP was on the floor so much

 

[tupac003]

So keep Green on the floor when Kawhi is there. Ok.

 

[Lizakers]

this. Especially after being spurned by Kawhi and PG. both basically didn’t wanna play “LebronBall” and Lebron tried to recruit Kawhi and got rejected

you would think Lebron would wanna show out against them opening night. But he ain’t no dog

Man Kawhi just didn't want to come here period. I read an article about AD making contact with Kawhi and he was met with resistance. He said Kawhi doesn't like that type of stuff...yet Kawhi recruits PG.

Eff Kawhi forever.

He's taking up minutes that would've gone to Kuzma & Rondo my G.

Giannis' bro, Norvell and Caruso must NOT be doing something right during practice sessions hence KCP getting burn over them.

Caruso was out because he was hurt.

 

[tupac003]

KCP is getting burn because of Bron and Clutch.

If he continues to play like this (which is likely) he has to be dealt but would want him?

Lebron planning his post-NBA movements - TV, film, sports broadcast, hair plugs, etc... He's being subtle with it, with his (failed) attempt to trademark 'Taco Tuesday' and his upcoming Space Jam joint. It is what it is.

Really hope it's not the case, but you'll will only know for sure when both Kuzma and Rondo are back.
