Lakers 2021-2022 season thread

[DJ Fieri]

Howard and Jordan about to get a lot more PT.....they need to come through with defense and rebounding.

I think AD is done for the year as are the Lakers.

 

[DJ Fieri]

AD for Lilliard in the offseason.

RW for Derrick Favors and Mike Muscala. The Thunder have a bunch of cap space and don't have to send back equal salaries. RW is an expiring contract.

Bring back Melo, Monk (give him a raise, maybe the MLE) and sign some other vet minimum guys.

G-Lilliard
G-Monk
F-James
F-Stanley Johnson
C-Favors

Bench

THT
Nunn
Reaves
Melo
Muscala

Not sure if I go with AD for Lilliard but its in the ballpark.

AD for Irving.

 

[Retroram52]

Maybe.

Back from NC,

LeBron has put the Lakers on notice? LOL. Pretty sure he wanted RW.

 

[Retroram52]

Notice for what? He'll be going back to Cleveland to play with his son. The Lakers in the meantime should be looking to move everyone and begin the rebuild.

 

[DJ Fieri]

The Lakers need this win tonight vs the Clippers without Leonard and PG.

 

[DJ Fieri]

At least the Lakers won a title with James.....the Clipps haven't made it to the WCF, much less the Finals.....

LOL.

The Lakers would serve themselves best by cleaning-up their FO and getting on with moving assets for a rebuild year in 2023.

We have 1st rd draft picks in '23, '25 and '27.

His son is 3 years away from playing in the NBA and James is under contract for next season.

That would depend on the Cavs being in position to get Bronny. Not sure where he is projected to be picked, but don't have to worry about that until the 2024 draft...

Game is Friday night actually...

Projected to have anyway. Grizz have pick swaps that could change the years.

The are also swaps where the Grizz can defer a 1st to the following year.
