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

[lobotomybeats]

Sam cassell left Milwuakie and thought hes on the Lakers but it was the Clippers lolol

I appreciate you trying to sound it out.

I gotchu

 

[pdino]

Anyone care to tell me a former great Buck that joined the Lakers?

Kareem

 

[CP1708]

Kareem

Rush?

I don't think he ever played for the Bucks.

 

[Brosizzlew30.23]

We already know which former great left MIL to come to LAL.

Can somebody tell me which former great left LAL and later became a Buck?

I like the answer but Brook's not as great as this guy

Pau

 

[g-time]

3 games Pau played for the bucks, so I guess technically.

Blind prediction this year based off what's on paper

55+ wins

Expecting homecourt in playoffs

anything less would be uncivilized.

our 3 top players are injury prone. ill just be happy to make the playoffs

 

[SORIANOTRON]

I got pretty high expectations this season...

definitely could be LJ last legit ride with a formidable roster.

Team is built for a chip.

the time is 17:0111

 

[pmatic]

Could see being the top seed in the West with luck. Could see being the sixth seed with misfortune.

But for now, I will pencil in being the third seed.

 

[Lizakers]

Seeing Schroeder get MVP, gonna miss him on the squad. He was tough and won a couple games for us last year. Playing after turning his ankle, not missing time, coming up with big shots, steals, FTs

Gabe better bring it!

 

[essential1]

Pretty good.

I’d be shocked if he isn’t dealt when the extension kicks in though.

 

[sohi 23]

Guess who’s starting next year

Hint: it’s the guy that just got a 12 mil a year extension, not the vet min prove it deal.

 

[pmatic]

The "No 3 and D" players are always undervalued in the market, but I'm mildly surprised both sides agreed to an extension.

 

[DLF]

Good now he can start without weirdos saying “but Rui makes soooo much more. Your suppose to base starters on salaries”

 

[essential1]

If Vando can just shoot from the corner, all is well.

He just needs to get an efficient 8 points and have energy on defense. Between Bron/AD/DLo/AR it is 4 guys who either will or can score 20 every night.

Then between Gabe/Max/Prince/Rui/Wood you got a bunch of guys who can be competent.

 

[BIG LEEMELONE]

Definitely getting rid of Hayes or Reddish at the deadline to get under the tax this season

 

[grittyman]

$12 mil for 8 mins of work per game

 

[lovehateself]

in Rob we Trust

 

[Brosizzlew30.23]

Definitely getting rid of Hayes or Reddish at the deadline to get under the tax this season

You say: Lakers trading Jaxson Hayes at the trade deadline next season

I say: Lakers do NOT trade Jaxson Hayes at the Feb 2024 trade deadline.

I'll bet you another $1K

You got 3k on Hayes or Wood starting 10 games. We can do another 1k Hayes won't start 20 games
