Re: 2019 Offseason Thread
I liked it better when "Lakers" fans were hyping up Lonzo Ball as the next coming of Jason Kidd and Trash Ingram as KD-lite.
This season will be nauseating.Comment

Re: 2019 Offseason Thread
Potentially HUGE news from the r/Lakers verified insider. I posted about him before, he's confirmed to have Lakers FO connections and has regularly reported early on transactions, for example I think it was all the way back on June 11th or 18th or somewhere around there, he reported that the Hawks and Wizards had emerged as potential teams in the mix for the AD trade and sure enough that's exactly what happened.

Re: 2019 Offseason Thread
ORL has offered Vuvevic 4/$90m.
1) I feel like that's a little light. Another team will offer more.
2) What does that mean for Mo Bamba?"You make your name in the regular season, and your fame in the postseason." - Clyde Frazier

Re: 2019 Offseason Thread

Re: 2019 Offseason Thread
Going over a bunch of hypothetical but reasonable scenarios with my friends. What do y'all think would happen in this situation...
Kawhi: LAL
KD: GSW
Butler: PHI
There's no second star to pair with Kyrie. Where does he land? Where does DLo land? Does BK actually go through with that crazy rumor of signing both DLo and Kyrie? Do they keep only DLo? Only sign Kyrie?
Would be something, and very Knicksish, if the Knicks were the only team who really wanted Kyrie, and if he was the only big name they could sign this summer."You make your name in the regular season, and your fame in the postseason." - Clyde Frazier

Re: 2019 Offseason Thread
I wish Vegas odds were not used so damn much as a barometer of whether a dude is gonna sign for x team. As somebody mentioned a prior time they were brought up, they fluctuate based on who stakes money on whatever. If everybody were to bet 1000 dollars on Kawhi going to the Cavs, eventually he would be favorite with their odds.
It wouldn’t shock me if it’s these gambling companies paying media outlets to run specific stories to encourage more people to stake in more unlikely outcomes.Comment

Re: 2019 Offseason Thread
LOL, true. But his role could change significantly. If Dallas misses out on Horford (if they were ever really in that), they have been rumored since the winter to be interested in Vucevic. Wonder if they'd pay a little more to stick him next to Luka and KP. With what guys get paid these days, I can see a 4/$100m offer for Vucevic."You make your name in the regular season, and your fame in the postseason." - Clyde Frazier

Re: 2019 Offseason Thread
Marc 'Sauces' Stein puts out that Kawhi only wants to meet with Jeannie Buss and Magic Johnson for his Lakers meeting.
Ramona Shelburne says that it is against NBA rules for Magic to be apart of official team meetings.Comment

Re: 2019 Offseason Thread
Pretty much what I expected them to do all along. This keeps their options open. They go into free agency and try to land Kyrie and KD or he and Kyrie. If they get KD and Kyrie they can pull the offer and allow him to become unrestricted. Otherwise they can find out that they’ve missed on the big fish and then match whatever offers he gets.
Downside to this is other teams can put them in a bad spot while they wait on decisions from KD, Kyrie, etc. if he signs with a team on Monday for example they need to know where they stand with the big fish within 48 hours in order to match.
