Why? Is Zo ready? What about Hart or Kuz?

We rebuilding. Its no quick fix. Tbh. Its why trading dlo was useless. PG13 staying. Cousins is a big with a career altering injury...Bron never wascoming without George.

That fantasy was perpetuated by ESPN just to have the summer story be Lakers strike out again.

I'm going on the theory that Lakers attract 1 big time FA (not 2), possibly re-sign randle, and maybe use Ingram as trade bait for a player that takes us further faster.

Just 1 scenario of many that may or may not occur

Something has to change with this squad and that includes maybe 1/2 new guys next year

Edited by kball, February 02, 2018 - 05:30 PM.

Praying for 1. Some Cohesion (Ill fitting parts with young bucks, new guys, and those playing for next contracts may muck things up all season) 2. Better Coaching, No More Tanking (Last season was more of the latter but not sure how much of the former we can count on. Walton with something to prove this season as much as any Laker player) 3. Rookie Watch (Hoping Lonzo outshines his daddy (ROTY??), and Kuzma finds minutes and makes a push for all rook 2nd team).

READY FOR SEASON!!!

Ingram is most effective as half court point forward for us.

Ingram show such flashes. Idk why anyone wouldn’t at bare minimum be intrigued by his potential. I just think people focus on the bad games. What you want from youth is flashes and growth

Anything more and you’re lucky and anything less you’re in trouble

I’d say we’ve gotten growth and flashes from Ingram. Sure we haven’t gotten more, which would be consistency and major impact but at least we haven’t gotten less

I like

Just advocating it. Dude’s going to continue improving. I think they need to hash it out at the start of free agency and settle on a reasonable number.

BBIQ...the 2 max idea was perpetuated by our President of Basketball Ops and GM. I don’t think it happens either, but let’s not act like they didn’t put the world on notice the moment they arrived.

Yea Im not sure why he mentioned ESPN. Magic/Pelinka made these comments numerous times themselves.
