The Show Must Go On: 2013-14 Los Angeles Lakers thread

[TYBG]

Use Asik and let Horford slide to PF, his natural position

I'd figure it was Asik and/or Lin. I'd rather tank

Ken Berger: Sources: Howard retreating to Colorado or Montana for free-agent decision.

If its Montana, get it done Phil.

Kobe Bryant, according to a source, pointed out that while the Rockets brought Hall of Fame center Hakeem Olajuwon with them to their meeting with Howard Sunday night, and that Yao Ming made a pitch on Houston's behalf via Skype, "there wasn't a room big enough" to hold all of the great players who had worn the Lakers' uniform.

[Danny Up]

Brehs, do you realize that as of today....we only have 8 players under contract for this up-coming season:

Kobe Bryant
Pau Gasol
Steve Nash
Metta World Peace
Steve Blake
Jodie Meeks
Jordan Hill
Robert Sacre





2014 cant come soon enough

Crazy thing is on paper sounds like a pretty good roster.

If its Montana, get it done Phil.

Breh, if he's in Colorado, I'm in the mountains right now. I'll make the final pitch, no homo, if i run into him.

Dave McMenamin on 710 Radio:

- Says Lakers basically came to Dwight honest, and admitted they made mistakes last season. Told Dwight what they should've done.

- Says Lakers didn't talk about their past history, but their pitch was lo
ok at 2014 that we'll be the most popular destination. Says Kobe will be resigning for "cheap" by then.

- Believes Lakers chances are still good despite what everyone else is saying.

First surprise of week on Dwight front: Sources say Golden State made real impression on Howard in their meeting and have become a factor

ESPNSteinLine: Rockets/Mavs clearly still have better shot to steal Dwight from Lakers than Warriors. But Dubs, I'm told, have forced way into conversation

Dwight for Barnes/Rush/Biedrins. or Barnes/Rush and find a 3rd team to send Bogut to. Also, can go find a center for cheap than.

 

[PTBG]

ESPNSteinLine: Lakers still insisting NO to all sign-and-trades. HARD for GSW even if Lakers willing. But Warriors clearly didn't visit D12 just for show

So, if we lose Dwight for nothing, fail to get Bron (Bron ain't got a shot coming here) or any FA that's worthwhile in 2014, hopefully it will be the end of this fukkboy Cokehead Jim Buss.

ESPN 710

Lakers meeting apparently was broken into several parts:

- Dwight met with TWC and AEG separately.

- Jim and Mitch separately.

- Kobe, Nash, D'Antoni separately, then D'Antoni left the room and it was just Dwight, Kobe, Nash.

 

[Saint1]

- Kobe, Nash, D'Antoni separetly, then D'Antoni left the room and it was just Dwight, Kobe, Nash.

Kobe Dwight and Nash looking at MDA:
D'Antoni: I'm gonna go get some Pringles.

Yall shouldn't sweat any reports about where he's going to go. These nikkas don't know shyt. They just throwing shyt against the wall hoping that it'll make them look legit if they're right. If they're wrong they'll just be on some "Dwight is so indecisive" bullshyt.


As of now nobody knows what Dwight is going to do but Dwight. All we can do is wait till Friday. No sense in reading too much into shyt and speculating about this. Just gotta play the waiting game.
