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

[Regular_P]

If the Lakers don’t win a chip by the end of Bron’s tenure, this entire FO needs to be canned from the top to the bottom.

It’s one thing not to get Kawhi, but this FO lacks the imagination to get players that fit. You immediately resign KCP and Javale, despite both of them having issues, when you can get players that fit the system.

I’m willing to bet, they could’ve took that KCP/Javale money and used that to sign Aaron Holiday/Johnathan Williams. Both of those players can do what KCP/Javale do, and I’m sure they’d go for the vet minimums.

They've put together a team that can win a title. That's all you can ask for. It's up to the players and coaches now.

Maybe I’m being optimistic but all in all, given the circumstance, we got some decent deals done. Hope it works out

"we gotta find players that can deal with George and Kawhi"

bruh... that's like saying teams need to find players that can deal with AD and Lebron. they're superstars for a reason. Paul George stops himself in the playoffs. But there's not a player that can guard Kawhi or contain him. Our best bet is Iggy getting cut.

You’re right about the last part. But I think at this stage in Lebron career it’s best he focuses on the offensive end and we sign wing defenders to take that load off of him nh . It’s gonna be a long season and we don’t want duke popping his groin again nh .

 

[G-Zeus]

I think Javale deserves first crack at it. Doesn't need the ball and is better defensively.

Gotta remember that Bron/AD have to figure things out first. Can't be trying to please Boogie to start the season. Let him fight for his scraps.

Bron ad good...

Starting center should be matchup based

 

[Sinnerman]

Bron ad good...

Kinda like what the Raps did with Gaso/Ibaka

If we're playing teams like Denver/Philly, Cousins should start
perhaps McGee with more mobile centers

The fact we have to create scenarios to cover LBJ's deficiencies is problematic

In a perfect world, we would've signed Lamb, Marcus Morris, Willie & Quinn Cook

We needed youth mixed with veteran presence

Bron ad good...

Mcgee is gonna start the season at Center

Boogie will come off the bench initially until he's able to go more than 5 minutes without needing a whole tank of oxygen

Boogie will be the starter by game 15-20 and they'll be rolling teams

One of boogies most underrated attributes is his passing... shyts gonna be ok

We should pick up Pau Gasol and Vince Carter for the vet min.

Then add Trey Burke.

 

[jay211]

Isn't Vince completely washed??

 

[Darts]

I'm not as optimistic as most y'all. There's a LOT of potential for drama and disappointment with this team, especially with the coaching situation.

Praying for the best, prepared for the worst.

We are not a retirement home.

The next few guys should be defensive based or pg. I like adding Burke.

If we do have around 10 mil, I give oubre a big deal and let’s suns match. Oubre as lebrons backup would be ideal

Wouldn't mind Oubre or RHJ

That cardio thing should be by season start..4 months is a lot of time for cardio

 

[ALonelyDad]

Dallas bound most likely, they were interested before and got money
