We gotta try and get Kawhi or Kyrie. I'm not sure about Butler. But if we strike out on the max guys, SETH CURRY is a must. I want no excuses of why we don't sign him. I think we should be able to easily get him for 6-8 million a year. He's a great shooter and scrappy defender. He'll make the shots when AD and Bron kick out to him.
I'm really high on Seth too. 45% from 3 and can defend :leon:

I also think the front office has cut off all reporters and gone silent and keeping everything in house. The last time they really said anything was at Vogel's press conference. Nothing was leaked on out in during the trade talks. The stuff that was leaked was by NOLA.

At this point I don’t think the FO can speak about anything. AD trade ain’t final so they can’t talk about him. Everyone else is gone except Kuz and Bron so even if the FO wanted to talk there’s nothing to really say until the draft

Either way, it’s best they go silent. I’d love it if the team took an Al Davis approach and just cut off the media and kept shyt in house. If other teams see the front office working with that level of integrity regarding silence then that might help in the future with details being leaked.

I know they can't speak on the trade in public but they aren't leaking anything at all to folks like Ramona who's been Jeanie's mouthpiece all these years. They've blocked everybody out it seems.

that's exactly what they're doing. they even cut off that fat cow ramona. notice how it's just pure speculation as opposed to when a few months ago or for the past few years, every detail leaked

dawg...the AD trade got done without the world knowing they were close to being finalized. usually Woj or shams tweet "So and So are close to finalizing a deal... etc" or they'll mention how they're in advanced stages hours before it gets done. woj just tweeted, the deal is done.

I'm liking what's going on. Pelinka redeeming himself. :smugdraper:

Don’t see why we aren’t on the phone with the Wiz or something. Wall is out so Bonga might be a good look and Wagner is a young cheap stretch 3.

Ima just see what we do.
:mjgrin:

"With wall out we decided to get a guy that can come in and immediately start chomping away at the level of production. It wont be immediate, but he'll get there as long as this fanbase understand this is a process and display patience. This could be the best to happen to the franchise."

I swear I was losing my shyt all season but I’ve calmed down so much just because I love how this front office has been moving. Just shut the fukk up and get the work done. I have more trust in that than the other bullshyt. Flabgic being gone might’ve made a difference. I love watching the media speculate, not knowing shyt. They have no privilege to info regarding plans for the team. Let them find out after shyt is done.

If Rob gets everything done I’ll have to give him his props. Still got work to do tho.

I need kyrie on the lakers

I need it
I want Kawhi but I have a friend who claims Laker fandom his whole life but ditched the Lakers after we got Bron because he was scared for our future and he hated Bron and Zo. Became a celtics fan because of Kyrie. Even bought the Jersey THIS SEASON. Kyrie leaving is beautiful :blessed: I won't welcome him back to the Lakers either. You put that green on you're gone forever.
