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

[Flex Luger]

That trade is really paying off

When Muscala is hitting shots and blocking shots, its a bad night for tank. Maybe this makes us take Bol Bol

 

[Silkk]

I want the Purdue kid

Bol Bol would be a good one, because I think he'll be good. But our medical staff gives me pause with such an injury prone player

 

[Flex Luger]

Yeah let’s bring in more buddies

 

[Captain Crunch]

Yeah let’s bring in more buddies

The Heat have a good coaching tree, so he may be able to check Bron.

 

[Sinnerman]

Someone on LG made a good point.

Maybe we can trade down for two first, and maybe a couple second round picks if we don't land in the top 5. A lot of players in this draft fill needs we may have, even if none will become stars save Zion

yeah we if hire Ty Lue or Juwan Howard we're probably trading the pick for Bron's help unless it's #1 for Zion

Lakers hiring process

1. Are you a former Laker?

2. Do you have a relationship with anyone in the organization?

Sad part is we can't even get AD in the summer even if we give up the whole roster. Trade salary discrepancy is too high. All of the 1 year deal contracts are gone. It's basically Bron and guys on their rookie deals.

Magic has no choice but to nail both max cap spots.

Kemba/Kyrie and Vuccimane?

Kyrie aint coming but he's the best option. Only Kawhi/KD/Kyrie can save this nikka Bron and Ky already has chemistry with him so if he came here him and Bron would be able to get it back rolling pretty quickly imo.

i like Vucci too as well he's an interesting option

 

[Primetime21]

I always thought Juwan would be a great head coach, I was just hoping it would be in Miami.

 

[Mars]

Lebron played 55 games. Ingram and ball DNP in 42 of those games. Just something to think about. Injuries, lack of shooting and post depth did LA in more than anything this season.

Players LA should target this offseason

Sign:
Valanciunus
Walker
Irving
Thompson
Cousins
Vucevic
Mirotic(Bench)
Gibson(Bench)
T.Evens(Bench)

Other FA:
Durant- He's not coming
Leonard- Will stay in Toronto (can rest 20 games per season)


Trade options:
Davis (Once cooler heads have prevailed, I think the Pelicans will be open to making a trade with the Lakers. Especially if LA includes their draft pick)
Holiday ( I can see the Pelicans dumping salary)
Beal (If Washington is in rebuild mode)
Capela (I can see the Rockets dumping salary if they don't make a deep playoff run)
Booker (I can see Booker demanding a trade)

Draft:
Zion
Morant
Culver
Barrett
Hachimura

These 5 are all keepers. Everyone else is trade bait.

Kemba/Kyrie and Vuccimane?

Nah they can trade him into cap room if they still have any left over after signing a free agent. Salaries only have to match if they're over the cap.

 

[ALonelyDad]

Walker is the most realistic star I can see us getting if he does decide to move on from Hornets.


Wizards are sounding more and more like they are ready to rebuild, really don't want to trade Ingram or Lonzo for Beal. Hope we can keep one if he does become available.
