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

[darthska]

Told his mom she’s a greedy bish too

Unacceptable. No one should ever talk like that about their moms. No respect whatsoever. Sign of the times, let me tell ya...

 

[MVP]

 

[darthska]

Devean, Ariza, Caruso, we've done pretty well getting these hustling role players to be the best versions of themselves en route to a championship. Hopefully Reaves is next. Christie next next?

 

[noblekane]

cmon son
what are we doing here

overrating two way contract players again

 

[grittyman]

I like that Max basically said relax the expectations based off of summer league....yet it happens every year, like how some people are ready to give Castleton a spot in the regular rotation lol

AR/DLo/Gabe are going to eat up a ton of backcourt minutes...the rest will be open for whoever plays the best out of Max, Cam, and JHS.

 

[MVP]

I mean we don't have a solid backup SG, the minutes are def there for the taking, feel like Max is the best option for sure as of right now.

 

[BIG LEEMELONE]

Max will get minutes. He's in the last year of his deal and Lakers will prioritize him over Cam same way it was a wrap for Lonnie once Reaves started hooping. It's his spot to lose. As far as Castleton it's Reaves all over again. Reaves showed what he was about pretty much from day 1. If Castleton is legit we should know early on as a 23 year old

 

[moonman818]

Castleton > Robert Upshaw?

 

[SORIANOTRON]

Chill.....yall was hyping up HUFF last summer too

 

[DLF]

overrating two way contract players again

I’ve been rarely wrong about these guys

Caruso
Reaves
Cormac

Now: Castleton.

When you see it. You see it.

 

[pmatic]

Reaves and Christie will be the starting backcourt by the time 2024-25 rolls around.

Or Kyrie.

 

[grittyman]

Has the Lebron seal of approval.

I don’t care about the potential, he has useful isolation scoring ability that the team can use now.

 

[MVP]

Lol must be 2 Cam Reddishes, dude sucks. 1st Team All-NBA look the part but has no idea what he's doing.

I could make a list of former Laker role players who “sucked”… TBJ, Wenyen, TB, Bradley, Stanley, etc but all of those guys had useful moments at some point during their tenure.

Cam and Hayes the new Beasley and Bamba

for the all star team

 

[DLF]

1.4 below the tax line

Spend more than that…pay the repeater tax

Or

Stay below that and not pay repeater anything AND have teams pay you at the end of the year?


Yea it’s going to Colin Castleton at 1 mill.

 

[lovehateself]

Castleton up against an actual 7 footer

 

[tupac003]

Hodge shooting that 3...

 

[sohi 23]

Hodge and JHS are going to have G league backcourts in hell.

Lakers probably going to sign Castelton to the 14th roster spot.

 

[sohi 23]

I’m incredibly impressed at how easy/slow everything looks for JHS.

His demeanor reminds me of Jalen Brunson. He can’t shoot the 3 like that yet, but yeah, I see the vision.

 

[DLF]

Hodge and LEWIS are going to have G league TEAMS in hell.

Lakers probably going to sign Castelton to the 14th roster spot.

Fixed

 

[lovehateself]

They currently have this summer league rim in hell

 

[DLF]

Walsh on the Celtics is a scary looking guy.
