Maybe Zubac has developed to the point of filling all of the present-day requirements for a Lakers center.
Lopez says he'll re-up and take a re-structured contract as a result if the Lakers will be a contender. I am not sure if that demand could be fulfilled seeing that noone can control the future. Maybe he was providing fodder for the max guys to get it done this summer.
Well one more lose and George can start thinking about LA.
Correction: He's been thinking about LA. One more loss and he can actually start moving to LA

I really think George is comming.Heard on Dan Patrick this morning that apparently, Shaq thinks that both PG and Lebron are coming to the Lakers this summer. Don't know if he knows something or is just making a prediction.
Dan says that players/former players often know/hear things. On the other hand, it could just be Shaq making his own prediction.
Definitely would like to see PG join the Lakers. If Lebron wants to be a Laker too, that would be great. I'd prefer though, that he come in with a mindset that he will let Lonzo run the offense and just pick his spots when to take over though. Don't really want to see him dominating the ball all game long. It would be counter to the offense the Lakers have been running.

He and simmons are ball dominant. It would not work IMO. Like trying to fit lebron with Worthy and Magic. Great lineup, but Magic and LB are ball dominant as well.I just don't see LeBron heading West.
He has a hard enough time beating the Warriors in the finals. I don't see him wanting to get bounced before the finals by the Warriors, Rockets, etc.
The East is an easier road to the finals than the West is, and he knows this. That's why he has stayed in the East both times he had a chance to leave his teams.
If he does leave Cleveland again, I think Philly is a huge possibility. With him, they would be loaded enough to go against a stacked Celtics team that will only get stronger next year

I doubt it. Unless he's just a late bloomer, he's a guy who will be a very nice backup big or maybe even an average starter on a team that doesn't really feature a big.
I think his ceiling is Brooke Lopez. A guy who certainly isn't going to hurt your team, but he's not going to win games for you either. He's also a bit slow footed on defense which can make him a bit of a liability.
