The Official NBA Season Thread: Happy Birthday WASHED KING

[picasso swerve]

This team badly needed some vets for the second unit, especially with cp leaving. Melton, Slow Mo, and Hield, these are low risk signings. you could certainly do a lot worse

Buddy can still shoot and that’s pretty much all you need him to do in his spot. Can’t imagine dubs give up too much to get him

Them dudes good, thats a solid bench lineup for any team.

i don’t think you’re asking kyle anderson to be your spot up shooter or catch and shoot guy. A majority of his baskets are less than 15 feet of the basket. If anything, he’s gonna be asked to come off the bench and facilitate and defend bigger guards. Podz can play off ball and be more of a shooter, which he was one of the reasons the dubs drafted him

Imma just disagree . And giving the full MLE to melton is insane after the year he just had

Wardell couldn't even make a post about Klay on his IG Grid? Had to relegate it to a post that will be gone in 24hrs? Nasty work

Greatest backcourt of all time

 

[MajinZuub]

Buddy gonna be the splash step brother

 

[Peep Game]

*** Brother

Steph (and Zaza) going to Pullman for Klay's jersey retirement still gets me. Steph was, like, "man, it's cold up here, how you survive?"

Involving 4 other teams just to get Buddy Hield is max desperation.

Lakers gonna have to resort to hiring internally or overpaying for the coaching staff.

As for the players, might have to just waive them if they can't find a consolidation trade without giving up seconds.

Or the realities of the new CBA!

I was tinkering with ESPN Trade Machine the other day and it is near impossible to come up with successful trades.

Kyle Anderson and Draymond gone be absolutely UNPLAYABLE on the court together

 

[dacomeup]

Happy Spida is here but we have to move Garland and Allen/Mobley, Garland and Spida don’t work well, and Allen/Mobley the same

Saw that Atkinson doesn’t want to trade Allen so don’t think it’s gonna happen

 

[finessence]

Can't imagine what yall would say if the Lakers gave 27 Ms to a guy who shot 22% from 3 last year

They basically did that with Russell Westbrook

.258 and .315 the two years prior to LA. Lakers know a bad shooter when they see one

Hoping Lakers can get a marquee player somehow. Otherwise, might be Bron’s last season.

 

[iamjusayn]

Bron on that two year $104 dealy huh.
Curious how many mins bronny will get during real game time. Might have to go check him out during the summer to see for myself if he still weak.

 

[tramericanjr]

i’m starting to dislike that every deal we see has an option in the last year …. lol

 

[antidope]

Lakers into the second apron. Run it back vibes

[WASHED KING]

But couldn’t take a pay cut to make sure Klay eats?

Terrible leader
