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

[Professor Emeritus]

Do it

I don’t give af

You’ve been doing tricks on it for the last 24 hours defending your man.

Posted some bullshyt charts for 2 weeks straight and got exposed and now all of a sudden my dog ate my homework ass nikka can’t find those charts lmao

The charts you're asking for literally never existed. There have been no series-by-series charts this whole time.

The only charts I posted were full postseason charts. Someone posted them here during the WCSF and I copied them a couple times, before that I'd literally never seen them or that site before. I could post those again if you want. Butler has moved up higher, Murray has shot up, Bron and everyone else in about the same place.

He will be back, just being dramatic. If it wasn’t for his son it would be believable but I refuse to think he will hop teams year by year. He will leave next year and join Bronald in Charlotte

Same, he will be here for two more years, after that, he's done but Bron looks like last year in New England Brady. He can't carry a franchise anymore.

Yeah I think he has two more years, one with Lakers and the other with wherever Bronny gets drafted.

Win or lose tonight I need to see Ham taking chances. Just try something different.

If he bullheadly thinks playing 6 or 7 guys a bunch of mins Imma kinda be lukewarm in regards to him in the offseason.

The really have nothing to lose. Play Bamba, play Troy Brown Jr. maybe even play Beasley. Not like Dennis is shutting down Murray and his poor shooting isnt that needed on the floor either.

Ham aint it. His gameplan was destined to fail in game 5 even if they won tonight. Breh's answer is playing Dennis 40 mins.

Rui didnt really have it tonight. Gordon finally has a good game.

 

[Boonapalist]

Yeah he played pretty well on his 2013 superteam until the achilles tear

That injury ended his prime. 2011 was squarely within it

No it wasn’t stop it. His prime ended the end of 09 after he hurt his hand.

 

[Ganso Bomb]

Season didn't end exactly how y'all wanted it to, but all in all it was a success. I, for one, thought the Lakers would get thrashed in the first round if they even made the playoffs. But y'all exceeded all my expectations

Excited to see what y'all do next year

 

[jay211]

Well, we went way farther than expected. It sucks we lost, but the future is bright. We need to re-sign Reaves and Rui. And then trade Beasley and DLO. We need to sign Seth Curry, and find a way to get Kyrie.

 

[Lakerman0834]

32 years old pre-achilles coming off of two chips... he was in his prime.

Jason Terry ended his chapter

But that Mavs team that ended Kobe's prime began Lebron's

Kobe was injured that series and still went out shooting. Bron went out afraid of posting up JJ barrea .

 

[steph_harden]

Well at least Bron didn't shot a 3 I know yall would have been livid

He shoulda shot that shyt

Him getting his shyt sent by Jamal Murray was hard to see.

It was blocked by Gordon but ok

They have no fukking idea what they are watching.

 

[Black Ball]

AD is a bytch ass nikka for not taking the initiative to carry the offense during key stretches. Problem is we probably can't get a better overall impacful player than cuz.

He'd be damn near useless without an alpha on the team.

 

[2Quik4UHoes]

Kyrie wasn’t an option at all. The Nets owner stated specifically he would never trade Kyrie to the Lakers.

But having a closer would have been great. That’s the difference between this series.

Oh I know that he wasn’t an option. I was just saying had that not been the case and we got him instead of the 3 players we got in the Russ deal we would be a better team.

At this rate I’m just waiting to see how this era cuz unless Rui and/or Reaves become all star players we cooked.

Kyrie was an option but he wanted 4 years and we would only offer 2 to match him with Bron and AD. The deal for Kyrie was 2 first rounders and likely Austin Reaves. As a Lakers fan who has lived in NYC for over a decade and follows the Nets, I know this to be true

Lakers got some cap flexibility but not much. Bamba and Beasley have non-gtd contracts. You really can't do SnT with them unless you gtd their deal. Lakers gonna have to get crafty with Bamba and Beasley contracts because they need them for a SnT so they can go over the cap to resign their own guys and bring in an impact player.

That said, if a team like Dallas doesn't want to do a SnT for Kyrie, you are kinda fukked anyway.
