A King and an Empire: The Official GOAT franchise Boss Angeles Lakers 2018-19 season

[Voice of Reason]

If this deal falls through I hope the Lakers trade for some shooting.

 

[G-Zeus]

if the reports are real...demps is trolling... he is purposely moving the goal post to make lakers mad....he aint trading shyt..

M\agic walked in that one..

 

[threattonature]

Magic should just walk away at this point. The fact that the Pelicans are leaking all that to try and make Magic look desperate and like a clown is enough to say fukk you and to end trade talks. Pelicans aren't negotiating in good faith and essentially clowning the Lakers right now.

he should walk away because they are not trading... they keep doubling the request..not to make him look desperate but to show they dont give a fukk and wont be held hostages...

this is a power move.. they will trade him to boston just to show the players dont hold all the power...

boston might be fukked

Thats dumb as fukk though. This will simply steel the players resolve to leave the trading team in the dust. Watch AD say “see ya” to Ainge and the Celtics and bounce to LA anyway. Then what? Ainge got egg on his face and the Pels look like dummies for not taking a lucrative package this season that gets them everything they wanted.


The Pels organization might be that stupid, but Ainge CAN’T be that dense

it doesnt even make sense they are still pursuing

 

[Mars]

I wouldn't be surprised if Demps trades AD to the Clippers just to spite the Lakers/Lebron.

 

[THE MACHINE]

I AGREE, WE SHOULD TRADE LEBRON...FINISH THE SEASON WIT

PG ZO
SG INGRAM
SF KUZMA
PF AD
C ZUBAC


THEN U GOT ANOTHER MAX SLOT TO SIGN KAWHI IN THE OFFSEASON. KAWHI WOULD DEFINITELY COME TO LA IF LEBRON WAS GONE

THIS WOULD RESTORE ORDER AND MAKE MAGIC THE BOSS IN THE BRON-MAGIC RELATIONSHIP. RIGHT NOW BRON GOT MAGIC WRAPPED AROUND HIS FINGER AND THATS NO BUENO. SOMETHING NEEDS TO BE DONE TO CHANGE THAT.

Would be an incredible move
Zo
Ingram
Kawhi
Kuzma
AD

or










Kyrie
Ingram
Kuzma
AD
Zubac



Not even trying to be funny but
Jrue
Moore
Bron
Mirotic
Randle

Payton
Okafor

Then they could package Moore/Randle for Bradley Beal and sign Boogie
Jrue
Beal
Bron
Mirotic
Boogie


Both Teams win

Low key I thought about it last night. Bron could take that current pelicans pretty far. A competent bench and one LAST A to B+ type player away from real chip contention. Bron could def take them to the playoffs and maybe even WCF as currently constructed. Jrue would be his defensive minded Kyrie and mirotic would be a more offensively diverse Klove. Randle, etc is a nice piece too.

Period.

If these rumored demands are true and NOP trades him for less elsewhere this summer, Jeanie should file a grievance with the league for "basketball reasons."

Honestly it’s a blessing in disguise. They are going to wait until summer where all the offers they are going to get will look pedestriatian in comparison unless someone gives them Zion. Then they will come CRAWLING back after atleast one of the boys balls out in the post season. Then magic kills them for it and they end up with one of our core, sign and traded Kcp and a pick

 

[McPiff]

Pels are trying to outsmart themselves and it won't end well

I know these are rumors but lakers would be better off keeping the young.core and work on their chemistry.

Pick up a good piece from the buyout market and they can compete

 

[threattonature]

At this point I'd just be happy to sign the young guys and try to hit on a marquee free agent in the offseason. Worst case scenario throw some big money at Boogie to go alongside the current roster and that's a contending team.

 

[Torrential]

blame this tampering fakkit popisnitch

I’ve been told that one of the people that Dell Demps has communicated with is Gregg Popovich. Not for trade talks or anything, but a guy like Gregg Popovich has said, ‘Don’t cave to the Los Angeles Lakers.’ In other words, ‘Like we didn’t for Kawhi Leonard.'”
