2019 Offseason Thread

If that comes to fruition, Lakers are your NBA champs for the 2019-2020 season.

That would be a very stout squad

and(outside LeClown getting another ring, as SOMEBODY pointed out yesterday) I would be a very happy camper...

 

[Black Adam]

now hurry up and Sign, Klaw. i'm sick of you dragging this out...

The Lakers are going to start 4 forwards and win 75. It’s called positionless basketball for a reason lozzz

yeah, I forget who was talking about it yesterday, but I believe it was said that we could see a bunch of dudes about 6'7" play all 5 positions on the floor...

interesting concept...

Kawhi Leonard reportedly asked Magic Johnson if Lakers tried to trade for him, wants team to hire his own medical professionals

If they get Kawhi and Iggy, how many games do the following 4 players combine to miss:

LeBron
Kawhi
AD
Iggy

Going to be a ton of load management in there. AD is the only one who might play more than than 70 games.

The Warriors win record is probably safe

Marks is really turning the Nets into a great organization man.

This would be their best lineup for the playoffs:

Iggy
LeBron
Kawhi
Kuzma
AD

They have enough ball handling and shooting and they have ridiculous length. You would want a couple guys to chase opposing PGs around during the regular season and for about 20-25 minutes in playoff games, but that unit has everything you need. Ball handling, ball movers, shooting, and a lot of defensive length.

Randle has a 3rd year team option, right?

 

[TurnUpTheHeat]

1st off there is no world where you will ever know more about the cap then me

2nd its a conscience decision to limit themselves and make sure they have a front court that is barely bettena the Kentucky Wildcats

3rd there is/was and never will be a world where they spend 160M in tax on a yearly basis, but i do have to say you were not one of the half tards that thought theywould

Often times its a dunce cap.

Yep so we'll be back at this in 2 years when the Knicks likely miss on Giannis lol

Can someone please explain the reasoning why Dallas is so opposed to taking Dragic vs the other 2?

Dragic is one of the more overpaid players in the league

 

[TurnUpTheHeat]

Dragic is one of the more overpaid players in the league

Really?
He was an all star 2 seasons ago.
Hes solid as can be.
Hes making 19M this season, last year of contract.
Bargain compared to alot of what is out there.

 

[bksballer89]

Dragic is one of the more overpaid players in the league

He's not overpaid at all. Do you see the money guys are getting?

The guy was an AS in 2017-2018. Last year he was hurt a lot.

He is also an expiring contract

 

[bksballer89]

He avg 20/6 and 17/5 (AS year) in his first 2 years of his contract before his injury plagued season this past year.

Overpaid my ass

I think that’s why Kawhi asked Magic if he could bring in his own medical team/staff like Lebron did lol

 

[bksballer89]

You got bench players getting 15+M annually.

This is a starting PG getting about 17 mil per year and had solid numbers to back it up
