Yup. It's mathematically impossible. There is surely some good reasoning for this. I believe a trade will go down soon, or their is some knowledge...
We are better off adding talent now and staying under the luxury tax apron, so we could use the full MLE next season.
Kyrie's max is 47 million. If the Lakers get rid of everybody except Lebron and AD, they will have approximately 35 million to offer a free agent.
Is Kyrie going to take less money? Isn't projected cap 133 million?
They are both kind of chubby? Idk man.
Brown is overated imo. I have been hearing his name mentioned recently and I don't know why. I guess because he plays for Brooklyn?
Lakers could use Melo's shooting punch off of the bench, unless they plan on leaning on the rookie, Swider (which isn't a bad idea btw, but just...
If we keep Westbrook, we need to surround him and LBJ/AD with nothing but shooters. This could mean Jones and/or JTA get less minutes than if...
Again, Beasley could be traded effective today.
Waiting for a trade to happen soon. WB/Nunn/2027 1st/2029 pick swap to Utah for Conley/Bojan/Beasley.
This does not surprise me at all that we are not on that list. I mean lets face it, JC's game is in the mold of players that do not fit with us...
Thats kind of nit-picky tbh. He has dealt with some injuries here and there, but nothing too crazy. Besides, I dont expect this guy to carry us or...
WB/Nunn/2027 unprotected 1st/2023 2nd/2025 2nd for Conley/Bojan/Beasley
?
I think Beasley ends up in the deal as well though.
Conley is kind of like an older, more expensive Nunn without the injury concerns.
Yeah, pretty much correct. WB, 2027 unprotected 1st, 2023 2nd, 2025 2nd for Conley, Bojan would be fair. I prefer Gay not in the deal. Probably...
What do you guys think is more important to the Lakers? First round picks or cap space? I'm thinking Utah may be willing to receive only one first...
I could see a trade for Bojan/Beasley/etc. going down in the next few days.
He defended the opposing teams PGs in the bubble. Lakers got a chip. Not too bad for a 6-5 wing.
