Entertainment value will be high

NBA executives think the Lakers have decided to run it back

The expectation around the league is that the Lakers don’t like any potential Russell Westbrook trades and will be keeping their point guard to start the season.

I love bad franchising

Or they go into this season to see what they can do as far as improving upon last season.

They can always revisit trades 12-20 games into the season. Or just roll with him and look forward to next summer when they add some more pieces to surround AD and James.

While I tend to agree about James.....the WC is pretty stacked. And they may want to save some space for next summer when they can add players.....and I don't see Hield or Turner going anywhere anytime soon. And the closer we get to the season starting......Ainge will need to get rid of guys since they have the maximum number right now.

AD is smack dab in his prime, he can play another 5-6 years easy.

Yes but the real question is how many games a year he can play

Be funny if we flipped him back there for Ingram.....

True but cant assume all of those years will be with the Lakers. 2 years left after this season. No guarantee he resigns

The reality is the two guys the lakers really needed were Conley and turner

And a backup 4 (gay?)

No idea how they could swing that at This point

 

[The Q]

The lakers better get kyrie or this will be a disaster imo

 

[bksballer89]

LOL.

Not sure whats funny. James is likely gone in 2 yrs. If the lakers don't have certain pieces, it is far from a guarantee that he stays

Conley?

Nah, we needed Hield and Turner or Bog and say Beas.

AD injury prone and Lebron not getting younger. You roll with Russ and it doesn't workout...it looks bad, really bad and another lost season with Lebron. How many "lost seasons" did Miami and Cleveland second stint have with Lebron? Zero.

That ship has sailed

Are you serious?

Unless the Nets completely implode, it has for this year. I think they're going to try to get him in FA next off-season.
