We might end up far enough under the 1st or 2nd apron where Knecht could be waived, and we just eat the contract, it's expiring. But he could also...
Yeah, I figured as much. Now that we have proof that the Lakers want to get these players for Luka, maybe folks here could get more on the same page.
Draft Day Trade Lakers get: Gafford Mavs get: Ayton, LaRavia, #25, 2031 1st, 2032 swap Why for Lakers? Get rim-protector/lob-threat who was a...
Did you change your mind yet?
People keep apologizing for this guy and LaRavia. What gives?
Yeah, that's why I wanted to try him at the 3. But I was on board with the Rice trade for sure. That trade did take a lot of heat by many Eddie...
I see it like some teams could get away with a bad defensive center like that, if they have strong perimeter defense. But, since we have Luka,...
Lakers are at an interesting crossroads. Current Top-5 NBA player in his prime Former Top-5 NBA player who is near the end of his career, but...
Yeah, that's a good point. I remember wondering why the Lakers didn't just put Jones at the 3, but that would have been a reach for that era. I...
Well s***, if they want to make a trade, I would definitely try to get Gafford.
Slick, Washington would be great, but we have that Dallas issue, so not likely. I'm with you on Robinson and Thybulle. Oubre's shooting is a bit...
Missi 10.5 pts, 10.7 rbs, 2.8 blks per 36 this season and 7.4% block rate this season. Career block % of 5.8. That would out him 5th in the league...
Who else would you have in mind for that 15 million slot? I mentioned different combinations: Ellis/Williams, Robinson/Thybulle, Grimes/Williams....
Yeah I know they have been "solid". Its good that they are available, that counts for something. But the lack of perimeter defense requires...
LAKERS REALISTIC UNDER CAP BUILD DRAFT DAY Trade Knecht + #26 + 2033 2nd to New Orleans for Missi FREE AGENCY (1) Renounce everyone except...
Lol, how so? We need defense and a vertical threat. Ayton can't play defense or catch the ball, I don't get it.
Good forward thinking. Yeah, Allen wouldn't make sense with Giannis, and Turner is Taylor made for him. Off top of my head we send Vando + LaRavia...
Oh heck, yeah if we could get rid of LaRava. That's still 5 large forward types though: Luka, Lebron, Rui, Bey, and Thiero. Also, wouldn't New...
Yeah, I like the idea too. Herb's shot is not nearly as broken as Vando's, and at least he has some semblance of volume. Maybe Lakers could help...
lol i get it. My point is that the other poster is right that he likely wont want to come here.
