2022 NBA Offseason thread

[DJ Fieri]

And no matter what they do they need both AD and Lebron to stay healthy most of the year and all of the playoffs.

I'm aware health is always a factor but to me it's needing a whole lot to go right to even enter the discussion of a team that could compete for a title.

They got their title. Time to start over.

No.

 

[Stakesarehigh]

No.

And they most likely won't. But after next year falls apart and they look back and could've maximized what they had to start over I will be happy to recall my position here.

If I'm wrong I'm wrong. Don't think I will be.

On the other hand….banners fly forever. Get one more title and let bron decide what he wants to do.

I got a hard time seeing him walking away from a contender in la

They’re not a contender though.

After next season? Sure. But, I don't think they need to tear it down this offseason.

Make one last run at it.

Lol. They aren't winning another one with Lebron.

Covid was the perfect storm for a Lakers title. They got tons of rest. They won't get that again.

It's sad I have way more faith in a near 40 Lebron health wise than AD.

That's almost certainly what they will do.

It doesn't look great but they could get another title but a lot of if's would have to occur.

 

[DJ Fieri]

James is gonna play at least until he's 41-42. Gonna try and show he is the NBA version of TB.

Not sure they beat Miami if Dragic is healthy

 

[Iggloo]

Not sure who this dude is but he has a blue check. Lakers fans will be happy to see this.

Unfortunately, he is one of the better Sixers beat reporters in terms of news. So if he is saying this he has an actual team source telling him it's not true. Too bad, we had a dream.

Kemba and hayward were playing on one leg

All because jaylen brown didn’t understand high school level defense against Toronto

He’s going to try to, he’s been lucky with injuries.

He wants to play with his son...and his son is about to be a senior in HS I believe. His son has to be a year out of HS to be eligible for the draft and I doubt he plays just 1 season with him. Bet he plays multiple seasons with him.

No way of knowing if the kid can sniff the court. If he shouldn’t it will be a huge joke.

True.

I’m Missouri on this Mr Harden. Fucking show me. If I even get 75% of what that guy used to be…let’s fucking go. I’ll believe it when I see it though. I do like the fact that he’s playing for his last contract. That usually brings out the best in athletes.

 

[msgkings322]

the problem is you are limited in your return for lebron due to his NTC.

he's not gonna let a team get decimated for him.

I still think GS is the best bet but CLE also could be a factor if they decided to do it before the draft.

Zero chance he goes to Golden State. Come on man.
