Cooked Kings, bytchmade bigs, and shytty snitches: Your 2022-23 GOAT franchise Boss Angeles Lakers season thread

[Voice of Reason]

The entire point was that the move shoulda been done in the summer instead of coming into the season with this mess of a roster where 10 games in the season is already over. We do not have a competitive NBA level team and nikkas are ok with tanking in a year where we don’t even own our pick. Y’all are crazy.

They want Lebron gone but the problem is even if they trade him they won't have a pick at all next season either. And no team is giving up young talent for a old Lebron.


The team is better off going in on a trade now and then blowing it up after next season.

Trading 2 picks for Hield and turner in the summer wouldnt have done shyt neither. Kyrie is the only move that could've meant something but he's not someone you can count on long term clearly so trading both picks for him wouldn't have been the smartest move

Genuinely curious...... Is Jeanie Buss a bottom 5 owner in this league?

Mostly because she's so indecisive and listening to 10 people who everyone has questions about their FO basketball IQ

Lakers would have been a top 5 seed with Turner and Hield as long as DS plays as well as he did overseas

Just do the Indy or Charlotte trade, limp into the playoffs, get Ham some experience and regroup in the off-season.

Jordans roster wit the wizards wasnt better then this
Whats Brons excuse '.. DIGUST

I would do the Kyrie trade to be honest.

Nah, Lakers need depth and defense. Kyre helps neither and he's too much of a wildcard to trust he'll be available. Imagine trading two first round picks and this fool retires a month later.

No shyt, the season is already cooked. Not making the playoffs nor the playins after starting 2-8. We will be lucky to get 30 wins at this rate. What a disaster.

 

[jaydawg08]

It's very clear that the Lakers FO knew this season was gonna be a wash and decided to punt it away.... Pelinka got an extension lmao

Boggles my mind still

[CantStop]

so you guys want to trade likely lottery picks to be 5th seed and get washed by the Luka or Ja in the first round?



Are you guys Lebron fans or laker fans? cause 99% of the trades suggested is telling me u guys want to make moves to protect Lebron's legacy and not have him go down like this. Look at how Lebron is playing and tell me mortgaging the rest of our future is worth it.

I believe a healthy Lakers squad with this lineup plus an additional shooter could win the championship.

G- Dennis
G- Hield
C- Turner
F- AD
F- Lebron

However, Lebron isn't healthy right now...The Lakers should wait and see if Lebron can regain his form before they make any trades...Also, if LA does trade both picks, they need to be top 10 protected.
