2022 NBA Offseason thread

[The Q]

Yep.

I think Bog is what the roster really needs.

They traded Johnson and I guess they could try to have Brown guard 3's.

Good like with that shit.

They have a bunch of shooting guards and JT-A

Unfortunately, Bog would be a bench guy because Davis doesn't want to play the 5 full-time....which is probably smart because he's so easily broken.

But, you'd have to guess Bog would be closing games, just wouldn't be starting.

There’s a path to getting both bog and turner

It’s just not as clean as turner/hield

 

[DJ Fieri]

He's gambling the Lakers will suck in 27 and 29.

He won't even be there in '27.

 

[DJ Fieri]

Indy is better because of Turner.

But, maybe the Lakers are content with he Centers they signed and don't want to pay what it would cost to keep Miles?

They actually NEED Bogdanovic.

...and as crazy as it is to believe, Fournier and Buddy have similar stats, contracts and are the same age.

Evan has a team option after next year.

So, his contract expires at the same time, if that's what his team wishes.

The eye test is telling me I'd rather have Buddy.

But, one is a tiny bit better overall from the field, the other from the 3 PT line.

But, both shoot 40% or better from 3.

I guess It just seems like Evan sucks because the team did so poorly.

There's gotta be a way we can get Hield and Bog.....

























Hmmmmmmmmmmmm.........

Pretty cool Kobe story from Robert Horry.

“We used to mess with him so much about things he couldn't do” — Robert Horry shares how the Lakers knew Kobe Bryant would be great

Only the greatest ones have the drive to “be in the gym next morning, 5 AM, 6 AM,” trying to prove their teammates wrong.

There are three identifiable teams to trade with to move Westbrook and to get better similar to what the Nets demanded: Jazz, Spurs, and Pacers. The Lakers are now sticking to their guns to keep as many future number ones as possible unless it makes them a better team with what they get in return.

I wonder what soured them on letting those assets go these days? My guess is they know how much they gave-up with the AD trade and now he can't stay healthy and it wasn't worth it. Also they know they're coming to the end of James' tenure and must think about long-term rebuild mode once he leaves.

So, they are waiting things-out to get the most for the least and still retain their Number Ones yet move Westbrook. Apparently, it really bothers Jeannie Buss about giving Number Ones to an ex-Celtic like Ainge, The last deal they did with Ainge, they swapped players with no draft picks. So they'll wait to get the best deal without sending out anymore future Number Ones.

Now all of this may change tomorrow if they decide a given trade is worth the long-term risk of parting with those Number Ones.

If we stay healthy and get a back up 5 ?

They aren't moving RW without a pick

Dear GAWD....

Luke Kennard isn't even in the picture.

We go 12 or 13 deep, if you include Boston Jr and Coffey.

But, they won't get a ton of burn, unless Kawhi and George are taking a Snow day.

They are going the opposite of some contenders.....depth, depth, depth.

What’s even more Surprising is that they only have one expiring contract: Jackson

This guy said good morning everybody....

 

[DJ Fieri]

He also mumbled something.....

Think it was go Lakers.

Better check the diaper then.

 

[DJ Fieri]

Better check the diaper then.

That can wait till his ya ya gets back from dropping off the older kids at school.

I can hold him and feed him but draw the line at changing diapers.....get PTSD from when my son Austin was little.

 

[DJ Fieri]

He is a weird little guy.....my wife will change his pee pee diaper and then when she's strapping on the new one.....he'll take that opportunity to make his deposit into the fresh diaper....

In this era....you can go with Zu-blocka for 28-30mpg and say 8-10mpg with Batum and 6-8mpg of Morris at C.

Make it work.

[The Q]

either the clippers should sign him, or the heat should keep him and trade for Marcus.


on a completely unrelated note: either the Hornets or Miami should reunite the Martins...
