**LA LAKERS THREAD** Sitting on 17! 2023-2024 offseason begins

Us too. It was Tuesday, we were buns and kobe was leaving. By Wednesday we traded Kwame and a bag of ranch doritos for Pau and started our path to 3 straight finals.


We were buns, even with prime Kobe and good Lamb-chop. Sometimes one key unlocks every door.

This is false. First of all we were playing really well (I think top 3 in the west) before Bynum went down. Second of all PG is not prime Kobe or anywhere close.

About Boston, they became contenders because they stockpiled picks & young players and cashed them in at the right time. This is not the right time to cash in all of our chips.

Just wait until the 2017 draft pick situation is resolved and then you can have a better handle on things.

here we gooooo.....wait wait wait....content content content....then if that doesn't pan out, wait til the next UFA that comes along.  Why buy the iphone now when 8 is around the corner...why buy the 8 when the 8plus is coming.....
 
I say we were buns from the stand point we were fresh off a first round exit and not looking to optimistic. And Kobe was balls out every single night.
 
Also, it's besides the point whether you think Dlo is an allstar calibur point. If you think that a package that has Dlo as the #1 piece can get PG, why wouldn't you just wait for PG to sign a year later & then use Dlo to trade for another star of PG's caliber?

Oh maybe I forgot about the all mighty 2018 all star game in LA. What if La isn't represented in the most important game of all time, the all star game?

Don't worry, LA will have Fultz & BI in the rising stars game. That's all we'll need. Fultz gunna drop that 25/10 while Bi plays good defense, gets his hands in the passing lanes and drops 6 points :pimp:

I never said Dlo alone will net PG. youre just feeding your narrative. BI has shown everything on the court, let me know when your boy Dlo attacks the basket, blows by a big, or creates his own shot without a screen

I sort of feel what cp saying cuz theres no trades we can make that makes up competitive against the warriors for as long as they stay together...but i still want pg and dame
 
Sam Amick made a good point right now on the radio

There's no way the Lakers will have the All Star game at Staples next year with no Laker in it. They will make a move.

That's not a good point. Do you know how heavy the west is with all star guards? Pg nor butler would put a dent in that

Don't you think PG or Butler in a Lakers uniform averaging 20+ would be voted in? Or if not, would make the team over Gordon Heyward? Assuming he stays in the West this summer


Edit: Just realized Harden, Klay, Westbrook, Durant, Kawhi, Steph LOL

But, don't underestimate the power of the global laker brand, worldwide voting etc. If the Lakers are around .500 and have PG or Jimmy, they should be all-stars.

The point was that Magic/Jeanie don't want to host the ASG without player representation in the game
