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

[sohi 23]

The Lakers would never do that trade for Jimmy.

He's a free agent next year. They didn't want to give up anything of value for PG or Leonard because they were upcoming free agents. They wouldn't give up anything valuable for Jimmy either.

It doesn't matter tho, we got rid of Deng so we don't have the contracts to make a trade work until December anyway.

Jimmy to Mia or NY?

 

[kobeoverbron]

Kuzma, KCP and Hart for Jimmy Butler. Lakers get Butler and the Wolves get some young pieces. Who says no?

NOPE! What the hell is Jimmy Butsauce gonna do that Kuzma and Hart can't? NAH.

 

[D StaXX]

Keep Jimmy waaaaaaay over there.

 

[geno90221]

Keep that Nappy Head Ninja where he @

He's a consensus top 15 player, Kuzma and Hart, even if they reach their maximum potential, won't be where Butler is. You're trippin. The only thing holding me back are his injury concerns, attitude and contract extension.

 

[kobeoverbron]

Plus LeBron got no respect for Butler.

(post to avvy does not compute)

So basically everything

 

[atlsfinest]

So basically everything

He's a top 15 player. He's worth the risk IMO

 

[MVP]

Whew we got rid of Deng just in time. A week earlier and I'd be hyperventilating.

 

[moonman818]

So was Dwight Howard... He’s a 6’6 version.

Gotta learn from your mistakes. He’s clearly a cancer

 

[geno90221]

Bruh you sufferin from a case of Longoffseasonitis

Butler is better than Kristaps, Kemba, Wall and probably Dipo as well. No one, not SI, ESPN, CBS sports, etc., has those guys ranked ahead of Butler. It's a moot point because he doesn't want to come here but he's still better than those guys

you should really think about what you wrote... then when you realize it, apologize to all of us.

Y'all really think Kuzma is the second coming. I like the kid as much as the next guy but he's closer to his peak than most of you guys think. Don't be surprised if he's essentially the same player he is now in five seasons. Hart is a nice role player, good 6th or 7th man but that's it. I'd package them for starts in a heartbeat.

What is with the Euro and middle eastern ballers and their ugly shooting form.

Svi's shooting form is exactly like Hedo's:

 

[D_eezus]

Jimmy don’t wanna be in a Laker uniform because of Bron....he ain’t tryna win anything I see

 

[MVP]

Jimmy don’t wanna be in a Laker uniform because of Bron....he ain’t tryna win anything I see

I'm starting to wonder if there really is something to this. If Kawhi turns us down cause Bron is here maaaan...

 

[Lizakers]

does Jimmy have a no-trade clause?
I don't doubt he's a good player, I mean damn was it last season or the one before when he was so clutch in so many games. He can create his own shot and he's not scared to shoot under pressure. Problem is, he's now shown he's not a good locker room guy and rubs teammates the wrong way. No way I'd give up Kuz who has been bustin his *** this summer to get even better than the stellar rookie season he had.

 

[sohi 23]

Jimmy listed LAC, NYK & BRK as the 3 teams he wants to get traded to because he knows those teams will offer him a max next offseason.

I wouldn't put too much stock into anything he's saying.

Nah we don't think he's the second coming. He's a young player that showed he can score from everywhere on the floor and you keep him and let him continue to grow and don't trade him somebody that wouldn't be good fit for Lebron.
