NBA Los Angeles Lakers thread

that KCP signing is an L in my opinion.

he isn’t that good.

 

he was great from 3 pt range in the playoffs and they really couldn't afford to lose his defense after bradley departed

losing him would not have been good

 

Pretty happy with how the offseason has gone, even though losing Rondo and Howard hurts.

KCP/Schroder/Caruso
Matthews/XXX/THT
Lebron/Morris/Dudley
AD/Kuzma/Kostas
Gasol/Harrell/Bell?

Still would like to add another guard and while I don't think we keep Jordan Bell, I wouldn't mind doing so if we can make the money work. If McKinnie stays, also slot him in accordingly. Dudley is currently unsigned but I still get the sense he comes back.

 

Lakers had a low key offseason last year making short deals for Rondo, Bradley, etc

Managed to win a title which was great and now that they are a destination for FA again they can pick up some pretty good guys like Hazell and so on

Very excited to see what goes on with the Lakers when they have an even better roster.

 

Danny Green is gone too. All Laker fam love that.

 

Great off-season. It does hurt to lose Rondo, but I feel some people might be expecting too much from him. He mails it in through most of the regular season and keeps breaking his hands like they're made of candy cane. He'll be a great mentor for Trae though.

 

losing howard is the biggest loss in my opinion. rondo doesn't really show up until the playoffs anyways, and i'm not sure how much longer he can keep "playoff rondo" going at his age

but howard's defense will be missed for sure. i like the gasol signing, but i would've much rather had dwight in there with harrell. aside from that, every other move has been an upgrade. i'd like for them to add one more big man and then call it a day

 

Glad to have him back

 

Just finished watching the game film of the Lakers game, tough one

 

Lakers beat that ass last night
