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

dawg, i know you're trying hard to disparage Magic and Rob. This next season is just gonna be whatever......just let BI and Lonzo gel and grow together. Let Randle and Nance and Zu and the rooks keep getting better. Then next summer is the big splash. Who cares about "striking out" on Korver or not meeting Reddick.


I'd rather we don't make the same mistake Mitch/Jim made with the Moz and Deng deals after years of telling fans about how we have to wait for Kobe to come off the books and handing out 1-year deals to preserve cap space.....then give it all up to Moz and Deng.


At least this regime is going after realistic targets, have a nice young core, just had a great draft, and got rid of a bad contract.

Again, be consistent. If Jim and Mitch were here and had the exact same summer so far, some of yall would be KILLING them. Moz and Deng was last year. Every year prior they did EXACTLY what magic and Rob are doing but you act like it's perfectly fine. 'Who cares' that all the free agents are drying up and they have yet to get a face to face. Lmaoooo

Be consistent.

Exactly. The same damn wheel turning with a different driver.
 
I was in those season ticket holder Q&As with Mitch. He told us 2 years in a row about Kobe coming off the books and preserving cap space. He gave 1 year deals to preserve it. Then kobe came off the books. Then what happened?

At least I'm more confident with Magic and Rob not making that mistake.

Here you go again. Mitch and Jim had a track record, a decade's worth. You're putting up 3 months of Magic and Rob to 10 years plus of Mitch and Jim. Relax. And we haven't even talked about those embarassing meetings with FAs they conducted. Jesus Christ

This regime came in a few months ago and are changing the culture, getting a roster of character players with specific skill sets that they want for Luke's offense.

So you bring up their track record to disparage them, then turn around and refuse to be objective or critical of magic/rob and believe they can get it done despite having no track record outside of this year's free agency where they have done nothing whatsoever. Seems legit

You can't be this dense
 
When Magic and Rob flub an initial star free agent meeting so bad that they have to have a 2nd one, strike out on all their star and spend big money on old role player guys for multiple years strapping us cap wise by all means have at em. Be consistent.

This.


This new regime came in. Evaluated players/environment. Are changing culture. Told us the strategy is to have cap space next summer. Got rid of a bad contract. Had a great draft.


When a new group comes in with a clean slate, you let them do their thing.


Mitch and Jim had a series of consecutive blunders (kobe, pau, dwight) so when they had the meetings and strike outs, it was like the final straw and fans were pi**ed off.


You guys are pi**ed off and Magic and Rob just came in a few months ago

makes no sense
 
Told us the strategy is to have cap space next summer.

Magic explicitly said they want to save cap space for next year BECAUSE he didn't expect much movement this summer. How can you not even admit that it was an incorrect assessment. At the very least you should be able to say yea he was wrong on that one but we're still set up for next year.

What big FAs switched teams? Not talking trades

Could it be we didn't want 33 yr old CP3 ?
 
Nuking a dead horse in here lately

It's really ridiculous. This dude Lee has been on the boogersugar heavy lately. Mans not making any coherent points, drawing obtuse parallels, and disturbing analogies. Need to take a break.
 
Like what is he complaining about? did he want us to give up the farm for Paul George or sign Chris Paul?
 
who can we realistically offer one year deals to? [emoji]129300[/emoji] dont want to give philly/boston a top 5 draft pick next year
 
We didn't get a meeting? Thought we were looking for shooters to overpay for a year [emoji]129300[/emoji]. I really want to see the spin job if we bring Nick young back :lol:
