IM A LAKER FAN SINCE BIRTH -1987 YOUNG’N
SIT DOWN
WE ALWAYS BEEN ABOUT BUILDING DYNASTIES THATLL WIN MULTIPLE CHSMPIONSHIPS AND STILL BE SET AFTER.. GETTIN KAWHI + PG WIT A YOUNG CORE WOULDA GAVE US A FAR BETTER SHOT AT THAT
THAT BEING SAID, WE ARE WHERE WE ARE AND WE STILL GOT A NICE 3-4 YEAR WINDOW TO MAKE SOMETHIN HAPPEN, SO I AM HAPPY FOR THAT..
ITS JUST THE COULDA WOULDA SHOULDA SHIIT THAT UPSETS ME WHEN I SEE INGRAM AND KAWHI BALLIN OUT.. BUT IM STILL CONTENT OVERALL
YES
CURIOUS, AS NOT DOING THE TRADE WOULD ARGUABLY LEAD TO A TEAM LESS LIKELY TO WIN THAN THIS CURRENT ONE.
I THINK NOT DOIN THE TRADES MEANS WE KEEP INGRAM ZO AND HART + ADD KAWHI AND PG TO THAT... IN TURN, LEAVING US WIT A MUCH WIDER WINDOW TO WIN
I don't mind the AD trade now
Ingram would have been traded regardless. Either he would have asked for one or we would have traded him because Bron and he play the same position. Lonzo I fukk with but he still needs a few more years to develop. Josh Hart is an easily replaceable role player
And the pick situation isn't as bad as people think. We have our 2020 pick, our 2021 pick is top 8 protected. If we're a good team, they'll have that pick, meaning we'll have our 2022 pick. We have a first round pick in 2023, and they have our pick in 2024. Including the pick we gave them in this draft, that's three picks we gave them.

Where we fukked up was giving away all the other assets we had for nothing(Randle, Zubac, etc) when we could have easily gotten some picks and/or role players for them
I still don't know how we're going to find the guy to pair with AD after Bron retires though

YOU ARE OF COURSE ASSUMING BOTH KAWHI AND PAUL COME. WHAT WOULD YOU DO ABOUT THE DOUGHNUT HOLE YOU WOULD HAVE IN THE MIDDLE? ALSO WHO IS THE COACH IN THIS FANTASY SCENARIO?
To your last point that's one reason I brought up the question of whether Vogel is long term as it affects how the team builds for the future.
I look at Coach Vogel like the Paul Westhead to someone elses Pat Riley, if that makes sense
I don't think he'll coach us more than three years or so
that makes roster building a bit more challenging
HAVE YOU CONSIDERED THAT ON YOUR DREAM TEAM INGRAM WOULD LIKELY NOT BE STARTING?
HMM, SO YOU NEED A SMALL BALL COACH, WHO COACHES STRONG DEFENSE WITH LITTLE BENCH PLAY.
DID YOU PLAN ON MAXING INGRAM?
