    **LA LAKERS THREAD** Sitting on 17! 2026-2027 offseason begins

    Looks like he got hurt after 4 games in Tennessee, had surgery then hit the transfer portal (probably due to lack of playing time). https://sicem365.com/s/18916/tennessee-transfer-wing-cameron-carr-commits-to-baylor...

    I’m actually a little worried about his strength/hands, he bobbles passes and rebounds at times. But if he’s able to get stronger without losing the bounce that he has, he’s going to be a real problem.

    There could be some surprise buyouts like last year. Hoping Denver trades Cam Johnson over Braun, possible he asks for a buyout to go to a contender. Could see KCP being a buyout guy also.

    Just going through scenarios/hypotheticals. I will say, with the apron concerns and the amount of space the lakers have, the restricted guys are definitely in play. Getting one of Walker/Watson/Tari and a Herb-tier trade should be the minimum.

    Only if they’re able to dump Braun or Cam Johnson. But yea, 27ish is probably the number.

    IF Ayton opts out and Smart opts out (returns on room exception)... Then dump Vando, Dalton and Jake for nothing in return (or attach 2/3 FRPs for Herb Jones :nerd:).... AND Bron takes a steep cut... I think they could do something like this:

    The Official NBA Thread: Austin Reaves re-signs with the Lakers four years-$185M

    I’ll leave it alone after this, but I would really like to know what you think actually happened. What’s the scenario that absolves them of any wrongdoing?

    The Official NBA Thread: Austin Reaves re-signs with the Lakers four years-$185M

    If it came out the Uncle Dennis blackmailed them and told them that Kawhi was gonna force his way out unless they gave up the 48mil and a condition of the deal was that the company couldn’t tell the clips, then I would actually believe they weren’t involved at all. Short of that blackmail...

    Again, this isn’t a criminal case (yet). We’re talking about how much evidence Silver and the other owners need to see to determine that clips had some part in this deal. As far the deal itself, Aspiration was a hot company at the time of these deals. Hot enough for Ballmer to invest 50mil of...

    The Official NBA Thread: Austin Reaves re-signs with the Lakers four years-$185M

    I think the fact that they worded the contract in a way that he clearly had no actual obligation to promote the company in any way pretty clearly shows that this wasn’t a typical endorsement deal. Had he done even one promo then at least they could say with a straight face that it was just a...

    The Official NBA Thread: Austin Reaves re-signs with the Lakers four years-$185M

    Not the argument. Yea, the CBA allows players to have endorsements deals with team sponsors as long as they are for “market value.” Dame was sponsored by BioFreeze up here in Portland, they sponsored the team and ran a bunch of promos with him. Here, Ballmer invested his own money into the...
