bosko1616 Posted July 2, 2018 Share Posted July 2, 2018 There’s no chance they beat the warriors this year. The only chance they have is if trade for a established superstar talent, pull of a trade for an on the cusp PG/SG, and 2 bonafide shooters. You need some one who can out hussle Green. Someone to guard KD and someone to irritate Steph. Let Lebron run around with Klay. Here’s what I would do. Forget Leonard I don’t think Pops going to let that happen. Trade Lonzo + whatever to get Kemba Walker. You got the Kupchek connection Trade Ingram,Kuzma, and picks for Anthony Davis. This would be difficult but I can see them moving him for the right package. Then see if you can get Danny green away from the spurs for Wagner. You might have to take on Gasols contract put whatever. Another option is Beverley That would give you a legit chance to compete with the warriors. you can also go for Mccullum and Bledsoe for a lesser package if you want.

Those were some next leveling crippling moves. Had to salary dump a #2 overall pick. Didn't matter though, bc LA KCP getting a cut of the pie for being LeBron's mole for a year.

There's no realistic way to create a roster better than the Warriors this year. Probably not even better than the Rockets tbh. No to Lonzo for Kemba. I'm not trading arguably the better fit at PG for the right pay Kemba 30M+ next year. No thanks. The only way I'd even consider that is if it allowed the Lakers to dump Luol Deng on them, and that's not happening. Pelicans aren't dealing Anthony Davis at all. None of this is based in reality as far as I'm concerned. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
champ11 Posted July 2, 2018 Share Posted July 2, 2018 So I thought LeBron would sign a 1+1 type deal with pressure on the Lakers to get a star or two. But the 4 year deal let's the Lakers play it out and not burn their assets. This looks like a decision that was really influenced by his family and being close to his son playing HS ball. Can't hate on that, though I am surprised he did the long term deal. I mean it sucks as a fan of another team in the West, but it's a good situation for LeBron. If they don't get another star this offseason and stand pat they are probably a lock to make the playoffs but definitely not a true threat. The moves they made after signing Bron though.....I mean, yuck. Why? I thought LeBron wanted high IQ guys? Using cap space on KCP is a little surprising but he's fine I guess.

They're keeping up that max cap space next offseason. Next offseason, we have Kyrie Irving, Kemba Walker, Klay Thompson, Jimmy Butler, and Kawhi Loenard set to become FA. They're going to be a very attractive destination especially if our young core continues to develop. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was so sick of doing that in Cleveland. Just pretty odd decisions with Lance and JaVale but w/e it doesn't really matter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Indeed, and not like they addressed one of their biggest issues which is shooting. Luke Walton talked about all year how the team lacked shooting which was holding the team back, and so far nothing has changed there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Who the hell is signing off on that. What kind of role do you envision Lance Stephenson playing? Last year, Lonzo averaged 34 MPG, KCP averaged 33 MPG. Even if you exclude Josh Hart from the equation, we're talking about a maximum of 29 MPG. Figure in that Hart will get SG minutes, and you're probably getting something around 20 MPG from Stephenson max. Is it ideal? No. Find me a 3&D PG/SG whose going to take a 1 year deal.

They're bringing him off the bench to be that defensive irritant. He's not going to handle the ball much at all, because we're going to have at least one of Lonzo, Ingram, or LeBron on the court at all times. He's literally brought in to irritate the opposing teams' best wing player. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
