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

Those deals make them better imo
But no move makes them outright scary contenders

Bron playing good tho and AD showed this season he can still be the unicorn
Ham still stinks tho so there’s that
But if we manage to get rid of the small guard issue it for sure helps imo

 

[DLF]

Can’t wait til Thursday 3pm when we can put the final nail in the lakers coffin

Part of me thinks the Buss’ will welcome Lebron asking for a trade this summer

 

[moonman818]

Getting Russ off the team would make us waaaaaaay better.

Nobody is a clear cut favorite in the west.

I don't believe Denver or Memphis will actually win the West.

I still have a little faith we could go on a streak to end the season.

 

[stopcappin]

Nah. That ain't it. There might be 4 people sitting in the whole building, and 3 of them are probably confined to wheelchairs.

AD, bruh... water yew dewing?

He also didn’t show up to the surprise party they threw Lebron after

Weird

 

[tupac003]

So I turned the game off once they tied it and immediately gave up 7 straight. I just saw they only lost by 3.

Fake come back?

Folks saying Russ for Conley is done....

If any FRP's go in a trade like that, I'm done with this season and probably next...

Conley washed too. Front office trading just to trade

Plus Mike is owed $24M next season. This is what I'm saying, I would rather just ride it out and deal with another 27 games of Westbrook's foolishness then make a bad trade that damages the team into the future.

At this point I think jeanie is hoping Bron and ad ask out lol

 

[Maximus Meridius]

Still no trade

 

[tupac003]

5 years ago today we traded Nance and JC for Channing Frye and IT3....

 

[MVP]

Been said what the way forward was. We cannot mortgage our remaining assets to try and salvage the unsalvageable. If Bron/AD asks out it'll be the best thing for us.

[Maximus Meridius]

Aye Russ

 

[pmatic]

Clown bent over backwards for Brick.

 

[tupac003]

Russ acting up, AD looking visibly upset...

Something is going on....

 

[tupac003]

Vogel got scapegoated for Russ.....

 

[atlsfinest]

"dapped up"

Not trading for Kyrie had repercussions. Russ prolly pissed being offered, AD/Bron pissed not having shot at playoffs, it could get REAL ugly.

Just like last season. If they don't do anything at the deadline (right or wrong), that sends a message to Bron and AD. From there, it's a trickle down effect.

exactly.

ham is a ******* *****

 

[CP1708]

Vogel got scapegoated for Russ.....

Maybe someone (Noble/Ska) will put 2 and 2 together about what I said alllllllll last year.

Was never about Frank. I don't give two ****s about dude. It was about who put the two together in the first place. And that guy fired the guy who had nothin to do with it.

And now we've actually downgraded at HC.

And they'll fire Ham after the season and try it all over again with those 2 + 12 new guys.
