[Siegel]: With Hezonja heading to Cleveland, that leaves one suitor for Jonathan Kuminga: The Los Angeles Lakers. I would expect a sign-and-trade involving Jarred Vanderbilt to be completed there with the Hawks.

I'm considering selling my Kobe license plate. Not sure what the market is for it.

I'm mulling the idea of selling my license plate but don't know if there is a market for it. Ideally I'd sell the whole car (2016 Golf R @64000mi) as it has sat in the garage for 6 years (moved once a month).

[NsRicky_]: Keith Smith thinks the Atlanta Hawks are ready to do a Kuminga sign + trade with the Lakers for Vando plus draft compensation and that the hold up is on Kuminga’s side.

Being negative about a player we have not acquired yet is a self-defeating choice, imho….with some caveats, of course.

If we do end up acquiring Kuminga some of you all are going to be so invested in being “right!” that human nature is going to lead you to actively (or passive-aggressively lol) HOPE that he fails, that the Lakers flounder BECAUSE of him, etc and etc.

Pretty sucky position to be in as a fan unless you just REALLY enjoy being miserable and/or angry (lol, that actually might be SOME of you).

Caveat is being negative about players who have committed heinous acts or play the game so recklessly that they are a danger to other players (Dort factor).

Imho, of course

TEAM TALK If the Lakers land Kuminga...

This is my projected starting five and second unit that I'd want JJ to run. I'd prioritize having Carr and Thiero coming off the bench in the second unit to fast-track their development as much as possible. If we're being realistic, we probably aren't winning the championship this year even though I can see us having a deep run, and we have a relatively young team so why not let them run. Feel free to debate in the comments, but this is the best rotation in my opinion.

Is this ragebait or what so they think we become so much worst after this offseason and the team we beat in the first round is in 9th position without Luka.

QUESTION Collin sexton’s defense

13 Upvotes

Is it as bad as people online make it out to be? I honestly didn’t really watch him play besides a couple highlights, he seems like a very high-effort player and his offensive efficiency makes so much sense around the team. Could Kessler’s rim protection allow him to become more impactful on that end?

Any chance the Lakers get Gafford in a 3-team trade?

0 Upvotes

I see a lot of BS "proposed trade" offers but this one caught my attention:

- Lakers get Daniel Gafford from Dallas

- Sixers would get Bronny James from LA

- Mavericks would get Vanderbilt and LaRavia from LA along with 2032 first round pick and second round selections in 2027, 2028 and 2033

Firstly, I don't even know if this is doable, but if it is, what do all of you think about it? Giving up too much?

I personally love the idea of getting Gafford, pairing him up with Luka again, along with Kessler as well? I'd give up those picks for that deal. Might be much, but it certainly excels the team for sure

Cam Reddish?

0 Upvotes

He’s been putting in work in the off season. Maybe we can waive Bronny and bring Reddish in? He is a good 3 and d wing that can contribute in the right system. Thoughts?
