Lakers OFF-SEASON IS A WRAP

[licensed to ball]

Even if we strike out with these expensive *** dudes who cares.


We get to watch Russ, Clarkson, and Randle develop. It's going to be a fun season.


Once Kobes contract is done we'll have 10 TIMES MORE CAP SPACE NEXT YEAR.


PLUS A HUGE INCREASE IN THE CAP WHICH GIVES US EVEN MORE ROOM TO SPEND.


It's all going to benefit is in the long run either way.

No one wants our cap LTB. No one. 

They will when Kobe is retired and they get to play with a developed pass first, self-less star like D'Angelo Russell.

$ + fame + stats

They'll want it.

And in 2017 we'll have even more money forthe top guys to not take.

Russell gonna end up in Miami

Harden in NY.

Hard to get a sense from LMA right now since he's in mtgs. Lakers contingent felt good about how theirs went, but knew Spurs were favorites

$15 mil for tobias? 

Yes as opposed to 18 for Greg Monroe or 20 for Kevin Love. Still have room to sign a defensive big. 13.5 can get out done in my opinion.

Orlando wont match max offers, but whos to say they wont match that 13.5

if things dont go well with DJ and he chooses the Mavs ( clips will want to s&t to get Tyson Chandler) 

we gotta think 2 steps ahead and get in contact with RoLo and Shump

 

[MVP]

That's assuming he's able to prove he's a star talent in one season, same with Randle to a lesser extent. They have a sub part year or injury occurs and that's right out the window.

Is it me or does it seem the Lakers have no interest in Tobias? I heard a Celtics and Pistons, no Lakers

 

[sea manup]

we have a bright future but we dont have a team that a free agent will want to sign with. at least not yet

washed kobe, and two guys with big potential that have not played an actual regular season game yet

for all LMA knows they could end up being busts. 

FAs that we want are looking to sign with teams that will give them a shot to win. right now we dont and none of our guys have proven to be able to take on key roles in a contender 

a 19 year old pg with no nba experience is not going to attract anyone

They were interested before Free Agency.

CMON BRUH.

You dudes are killing me with that 2013 CP pessimism.

Be grateful.

We got to keep our top 5 pick, we got the 2nd pick, we got D'Angelo Russell. We got one more year of Kobe and then his absurd contract is off the books.

We got Randle.
We got Clarkson.

We got a FUTURE.

A few months ago we had nothing but embarrassment.

Glass is half full man
F a LaMarcus Aldridge or Demare Carroll.
We weren't gonna be no damn championship contenders even with them.

Let the young guys develop and watch the free agents start rolling in once Kobes gone.

 

[trynafeelmink]

Dudes in this thread live to complain... people are so accustom to L.A immediately being contenders that they are complaining about having two top 5 picks, and 40 Mill in cap going into next off season.

LA is already 30... 31 by next year & he's far from a top 10 player... he's not exactly a GIANT lure to a guy like KD when he's leaving a franchise that has two players better than him already & 5 years younger..

And it's comical that dudes are saying they want Aldridge but hate the thought of K.Love (Who i never really wanted)... how does that make any sense whatsoever? they have the exact same skill set except Love is younger and is probably a lil better on offense and rebounding then Aldridge.

Seriously, he is the one and only guy I haven't seen linked to the lakers. Will be happy to see him go elsewhere

All Of This...

So what's the plan with the cap space if we strike out on all our targeted bigs, we planning on handing out 1 year deals again? just wondering...

Notable 2016 free agents:

Deron Williams (ETO)
Joe Johnson
Al Jefferson
Nic Batum
Joakim Noah
Chandler Parsons (PO)
Dirk Nowitzki (PO)
Wilson Chandler
Danillo Gallanari
Brandon Jennings
Dwight Howard (ETO)
Roy Hibbert
Mike Conley
Luol Deng
Kevin Durant
Demarre Derozan (ETO)

Now I'm sure they'll get somebody, but it'll probably be an over the hill person looking to cash in one more time.
