lmao Bobcats got LoJ mindbroke
I have a bet with a delusional cousin who thinks, that not only are they making the playoffs, but they're going to the finals and winning. Easiest money I'll ever make.The Lakers will get the 8th seed. I believe in them.
What up knicks-bro.I have a bet with a delusional cousin who thinks, that not only are they making the playoffs, but they're going to the finals and winning. Easiest money I'll ever make.
Back to lurking.
lol
Never son
Alright Lakers-Gaf I've got a likely draft scenario for you guys. I've been analyzing stats, lineups, schedules, and organization directions nd I've got you guys as a solid lock to pick in the top 5. I've got the Hornets right behind you at 7.
So let's say you guys get the 4th pick and we get the 7th. Depending on who's still on the board I'm willing to bet we'd be willing to trade you both of our other firsts and the 7th to move up. We'd probably also offer to trade you Henderson for Nash, the 7th, and one of our other picks as well. You guys would basically be entering the offseason with only 2nd rounders, Nick Young, and possibly Hendo on your books with 3 top 20 picks and a boatload of cap space. If you're going to bring back Kobe you're going to need all the cap space you can to afford to bring in other guys that can make a difference, i.e. Melo, Dieng, a Center, etc. I really think it's the best case scenario for you guys, especially if you can get Melo to LA. And we sure as hell aren't going to be needing to bring in 3 more rookies next year so something has to give.
I give you doc and pops but miss me with the ass pulls.LOLs. Like that's some accomplishment: FYI Thibs, doc, pops,aldeman, Carlisle are all better.
Nah, Nash could very well hang it up this offseason or mid season with how his body is falling apart.
While Henderson gets 6 mil this, next and possibly the season after.
Plus the 4th pick, if LA gets it, will probably be really solid.
Yeah, I don't see Nash playing another season. With all the picks you've traded away though a 3 for one swap would go a long way towards getting the team back on track fast. You'd still get a really good player at 7.
Also with Gasol's injury history the Lakers are likely to be trotting out a lineup of:
Farmar
Nick Young
Wes Johnson
Ryan Kelly
And Jordan Hill
That lineup is not winning anything, it rivals the 76'ers for worst in the league.
The Lakers will get the 8th seed. I believe in them.
The Lakers will try to win this season.. why else do you think they keep bringing in vets?
You tank with young guys, not Jordan Farmar.
Jazz got their tank game down pat.
I'm not sure how the LA FO will play it but if Nash checks out and I know we'll let Gasol walk, we'll have Young/Kobe and that's it. If Kobe survives this season and can reach a deal to stay.
I'd rather we get the best talent possible, tank a couple more seasons and continue taking the best possible player.
Fasttracking a rebuild almost never works.
If you're doing a full rebuild Kobe is gone. You'd have to sign and trade him to someone with a hefty contract to meet the minimum salary requirement. Boozer in Chicago would probably be the best you could do, you might even get them to cough up the first we owe them.
Why.What up knicks-bro.
Why.
You disappeared from MLB Age. Alex misses you.
And I miss Alex. I watched from afar. Too many feels with Mo and Andy leaving.Why.

A team like LA would much rather get the 4th pick and sign a bunch of misfits to 1 year deals than to swap for several late first rounders.
Kobe could be gone, but if you're gonna suck, might as well keep him. He generates cash and its in his own interest to stay in LA forever. LA won't have a problem tanking even with Kobe on the roster.
Fuck da knicks.KNICKS!
Dark times ahead for yanquis béisbol.And I miss Alex. I watched from afar. Too many feels with Mo and Andy leaving.
I miss you too, Sanjuro. Didn't post the wall pic at all this year.
Your FO probably doesn't have a problem tanking with Kobe, but unless he's more interested in stat padding than winning for the rest of his career then I don't see how it's in his best interest to stay a Laker. With Kobe, Mirotic coming over,and enough cap space to sign another impact player the Bulls would be hard to beat.
Fuck da knicks.
This is Kobes last year in a Lakers uniform.
Could see him joining the Bulls in the offseason.
Kobe for Deng and Boozer. Jimmy Butler at the 3 and Taj starts at the 4. Probably doesn't work out cap wise and will never happen, but what the fuck?

nah
they'll just let deng expire this summer and give Kobe the same money Luol was making. 14.5 per. They have no reason to lose Booz.
If Kobe can return to last years form and be a three and D guy for them he'd probably get number 6.

Kobe could very well leave, still doesn't benefit LA to trade a top 4 pick for 3 lesser players just to bolster the roster when they can just do what they did this season and pad the roster with vets and bums.
I'd say currently trading most franchise leading talent for any other pick other than 1st overall doesn't benefit most franchises.

How do you feel about your off-season?
So the casuals don't know we're tanking.The Lakers will try to win this season.. why else do you think they keep bringing in vets?

We picked up Joe Johnson, Deron Williams, and a bunch of other players. Should be exciting!
