2017 NBA Offseason Thread

CP3 / PG 13 / Kawahi in the silver and black

Then they would have enough cap space money to go after King James or Cousins next year.

why not.

silly season stuff is rumor crazy.

They could get PG, though.....a little worried they've emerged as a possibility.

Yep. All depends if they're willing to risk a rental, and if their trade package is better than the Lakers

 

[DJ Fieri]

Fuck it....Magic offer the 2nd pick and Randle for Porzingis.

According to Kyler's tweet, the Spurs are in win now mode, so I guess they wouldn't mind the rental.

5 PG's in the top 10 picks? Any chance?

I think it's pretty likely.

What favorable contract does Portland have, Dame?

They aren't giving him up so.....

Not going to get it done with that.

Mo Harkless, Festus Ezeli. I proposed Portland get involved a few hours ago, I'm not surprised they got into the mix. My thought was #20, #26, Harkless, and Ezeli for George. Better than what's been rumored from the Lakers but still not anything Portland would be too upset about losing.

This is boring so far

Yeah, kind of a downer

 

[DJ Fieri]

So another Deangelo Russell that shoots for a higher percentage? Lmao

You sick? Ball is a pure PG and Russell is a combo guard, at best. He's really a SG.

 

[DJ Fieri]

Denver and Phoenix are talking trade.

 

[Shaqdaddy11]

i think Lonzo is a lock for #2

 

[DJ Fieri]

Mudiay and 13th pick for Bledsoe. Denver needs to do it.

5 PG's in the top 10 picks? Any chance?

Fultz, Ball, Fox, Smith will for sure.

Maybe the French kid slides. But, I'd be shocked if it's out of the lottery.

So, highly likely, yes.

@LAD were you @?

Mudiay and 13th pick for Bledsoe. Denver needs to do it.

Smith and Booker would be filthy.

Fox too.

 

[DJ Fieri]

Later all.....heading to the draft thread.

 

[True Lakers Fan]

Not sure why.....I don't see the comparisons to a young KD.

I agree but to this point both players maybe wasn't consideres possible and that would change everything

 

[tlance]

Lakers are looking too hard at franchise players. They just want to get out of the cellar for now and that would be a nice start

I disagree.

Getting out of the cellar is only meaningful if you are headed in a positive direction. You need a franchise player and multiple all stars to be relevant in today's NBA. Winning 40-50 games is meaningless unless you do it with a young nucleus on the rise.
