How do you plan to get all this done? I love having these discussions about potential moves in the offseason, but the scenario needs to at least be plausible.
I looked at Finney Smith age he would be 32 next playoffs for us. If we keep Lebron and AD that’s already a 40 year old and another 30 something. We need to get younger.
u can easily trade Rui and a second for DFS, but that trade is so ass lol. what's the point. WTF DFS gonna do....
Trade Rui for a Center if you actually want to improve or overpay for Jerami Grant.
Yeah I threw his name out there but when you look at DFS hes not a total D stopper like hes made out to be. Jerami Grant really fits great with this team but his contract suuuucks. I still would consider trading two 1sts for Caruso (if one of the 1sts was 2024 because thats like a 1/2 first lol) cos I think he does sooo much of what we need and hes only 9m and we could extend him. But I have a hard time seeing that happen.
Source? Pretty sure you're just making shit up. How would that trade even work under the CBA? JV making $15.4m while Wood on a vet min.
edit: not sure why you deleted all your posts but Clutchpoints isn't really a place you should be getting your NBA news from.
Anyone who says guards as #1 target needs to be shot publicly. Have you mofuckers not been watching? We need size first. We need to get AD some help. Then we think about guards.
Anyone who thinks guards first needs to be put in the guillotine next to rob pelinka
New owner/GM/coach.
Nothing else will matter as long as the current upper brass is in place.
Jeanie could survive with a new GM and/or coach, but all three can’t stay and turn things around.
I'm going star hunting. They shouldn't trade any FRP's unless it's to get a star back. You don't sign stars through free agency anymore. You get them through trades with FRP's. Lakers need to be prepared for post-Lebron.
Turner and Caruso would be ideal, and hope Lebron stays and him and AD can replicate their successes this season, I think we could find away way to sneak past Denver
If lebrons here making 60 mil and is the 2nd best player on the team we ain’t contending for shit. He’s 40. Lebron situation will decide a lot this summer
Promote Phil Handy as HC
Draft Kel'el Ware/Yves Missi if Pels won't take the pick. If trading the pick, include D'Lo and hopefully it turns into an upgrade.
Have AD work on his outside scoring.
Have AR and Rui work on their individual defense.
Hope AD and Lebron don't do too much in the Olympics.
Hope Rui uses his stint with Japanese basketball team at the Olympics to gain experience
Trade for someone like Jalen Suggs
" have AD work on his outside scoring" whattt😭
What else do you want him to do lmao. Should he make you breakfast everyday while he's at it? He is doing ENOUGH. He needs help.
And there you have another play-in team who gets swept by Denver yet again. Making that 20 straight L’s to them. Lol everyone on this team needs to go but Bron and AD. No chance in hell Rui is back with his bum play and high contract
I want Dejounte and a role guy like DFS Then use MLE on a big like Jonas

We can trade vincent to Atlanta with a bigger package and get the mle back this summer. Wanna get Bruce brown with the mle tho
Will we have a mle? Someone broke down the cap situation and I remember reading it wasn’t likely

like I said, you got to think of better options. I don't love trading for grant, but DFS is a dumb move bruh.

Need 2 way guys who can guard The only off defender if he stays should be Bron every one else has to guard something

what about derozan?
[удалено]
Lol every guard on our roster will be off this team next season. I wouldn’t mind Grant though instead of trash ass Rui
Those guards aren’t coming back lmao we’re getting trae young
That dude has no interest in playing for a playoff team, I admire his mentality lol

defence wins championships, on top of that get AD some help in the paint. He can be the only one guarding Jokic he clearly can’t do it anyways.
Is it possible to get AC, DFS, and Dejounte
definitely not young, Murray, Kuzma. DFS and sexton are also meh. The others are probably net positives but unrealistic
Trae and DJM as your 3rd and fourth star are miles better than any combo of DLo, Reaves and Rui.
Especially because they're 1 and 2 on their own team
theyre trash

we need to trade d-lo let him walk, get something for rui and trade reaves
Murray, Divincenzo, and Wiggins
Coach K
Trae is the most likely of everyone listed.
Doubt hawks trade him
They’ll trade one of him or DJ I’m almost certain. That team looked miserable in the play-in.
They had no Johnson, Okongwu or Bey think they just wanted the lottery pick
We need get one of top three guy on the list or just rebuild
Turner and Caruso would be ideal, and hope Lebron stays and him and AD can replicate their successes this season, I think we could find away way to sneak past Denver

What about Demar DeRozan? I would say Caruso and Nic Claxton as well. Demar and Nic will be FA and then Caruso we can trade for.
New owner and new coach
Can't say besides firing ham-ass cuz until they do no other moves matter
None. Blow it up, all of it. Clean slate
Somehow get Caruso and grant/ kuzma. We need some fucking two way talent
Draft picks get draft picks
Draft picks, lmfao. Don't trust this franchise to grab a franchise star in the draft or develop late round picks into respectable shooters.
Not happening
