A lot of shooting. Jesus

They need some defense.

 

[DJ Fieri]

Bigger, and seemingly an overpay?

2nd year is a team option so they cut bait if he doesn't perform.

Satisfied with Vincent and Prince as the Lakers' main FA gets. Assuming Reddish (and possibly Bamba?) on vet min contracts to be announced eventually.

Reddish would be nice.

Sure. Big jump in FA value from one year to the next.

 

[shopson67]

Reddish would be nice.

Long time Laker target and a Clutch guy. He needs a rescue contract essentially to try to rebuild his value.

 

[shopson67]

If not Bamba, Lakers need to find something at center on the cheap.

Is it just me or are there a lot more shorter deals this FA?

 

[Shaqdaddy11]

Schroder and Walker gone.

?

 

[DJ Fieri]

Disgusting

11 mill seems like a slight overpay...Riles was being frugal but 7.7 is probably what he was worth and a lot more than what he was making.

And the lack of defense means he a 1 way player. Less enthused about this than the Prince pickup.

They won't be returning after Vincent got what he got. Neither coming back for the vet minimum. At least it's very unlikely they do.

Paying your starting pg that is a slap in the face. Backup pgs get more than that. His defense also isnt that bad. He competes on defense which is all you can ask for

Seems like a good deal for LA

only in that they're not taking vet min deals to return to the Lakers

also, once DLo re-signs, that's 3 PG so no Schroder

 

[shopson67]

? Trade incoming? Or just a hair joke...

Not gonna complain but I don't think he is as good as he was in the playoffs.

Yeah. They both outperformed their contracts.
