Probably discussing with Tilman whether we should blow it up. We all know his protege Sam Hinkie would.
I've never seen fans so MASSIVELY overrate their own roster. This team obviously is a lottery team without James Harden. The favorites in west? Smh.
Personally i would trade Harden now to Celtics if i was Morey. They have the #7 Pick, and #18 pick in 2020. Id go with Jaylen Brown, Smart, Hayward as a throw in. Buy out cp3 contract. and trade Capela and Gordon for picks/young assets. (This is me Thou)but Morey gonna #walk it back LOL... I even give the Celtics Capela with Gordon just to get all that back if nessecary from boston. Celtics would accept that offer easy. To pair Harden with Kemba, and Tatum is a 3 headed monster.
Perhaps we would be lucky enough to close to win championship, just 2 yards away. And it might because of we dont use full MLE, its over.
yea just think, we be doing lakers a favor buying out cp3 contract, he go run to bron fast. Maybe we could do a salary dump now for a pick with LA.
What were the Lakers last year without Lebron? What were the Pelicans with just AD or without him. If you take the best player away from every team they are either barely making the playoffs or a lottery team. After seeing a Hardenless Rockets beat GS during the season because of ball movement and execution it should be clear that winning also depends on how smart you play with the talent you have as well as how you play that talent to it's strength.
As Willie Nelson would say. Turn out the Lights the Parties Over. We know that all Good Things must end.
Not with CP3's injury situations now CP3 was healthy all year of course because the Dantoni system is great for 82 a game season basketball.
Call Ujiri to see if Siakam is available, the Raptors are super done without Kawhi, they are forced to rebuild and Siakam is already 25 and has no star potential anyway, i'm not sure he's not available.
Due respect, dude, Siakam is a big, and bigs' prime is always around 28-29. Can't tell me he cannot get better.
Man raptors do want to compete, they will make small moves like trading Lowry. If Lowry and 1st nets you Westbrook, you do it fast. Thats still a good team with Westbrook.
I said he has no star potential, do you see him become a top 20 player in the league? I don't, but maybe it's just me. And regardless, if they're going into a full rebuild, once they'll be done with that Siakam will likely be around 28 and on a max deal, surrounded by a core of 21/22 years old guys.
You need 8 guys to really go to war with. CP/Harden/EGO/PJ/Capela & House/Rivers/Green is where we currently stand. I think if you really want to hang with the Clippers in the Playoffs, you’ve got to upgrade Green & House. I have no idea if it’s feasible under the cap, but Iggy + Jamychal would be ideal. Going to be a FUN season next year. Clippers are definitely going to be a 1 seed or close to it, but they aren’t the GSW in their prime. With 1 or 2 moves we can give them a run.
We'll see, to me makes no sense and i think Ujiri is smarter than that but yeah, something will happen soon in one way or another i think.
i doubt he gives up siakam, but i would be interested to know what the going rate is to obtain anunoby
See, OG is another player who could fit here, although he's not proven as Siakam, but OG if i'm not wrong should be much younger, probably around 20 so, i can see Masai not giving him away, for Siakam i think it might be different cause he's already 25, if the Raptors are about to rebuild, i don't see the point to keep him tbh, this might be a good moment to move him and get a great package back.
I laugh at that all the time on here. I get being hopeful for your team but gotdamn lol. The homerisms are out of control lol. Every fanbase does it though. Laker fans are notorious for it.
