Who will be the Lakers "Rodman" next season?

[Buckeye Fever]

When I look at this team, I'm reminded of when MJ came back towards the end of the 1995 season before ultimately getting eliminated by Orlando in the playoffs.

Minnesota is the Lakers Orlando Magic.

They need that one signing that will get them over the hump and a full training camp.

Lakers might not need as much help rebounding the ball as they do some athletic rim protection, but they do need that lively body who is an irritant and will fight for extra possessions.

Depends on how the league values knecht..

He would've gotten a lot of playing time in Charlotte.

If teams do value him, that would help the Lakers to try and get what they need

I think it will be Austin Reeves, he has the most trade value knecht ain't getting nobody. Plus with Luka there you can't be having two sieves on defense out there for 35 plus minutes on the perimiter.

They need a defensive big like a myles turner or Walker Kessler, and both those cities would go beserk for a cac like austin

Idk if you can afford to not have another really good guard. Bron most likely will need to be a firm 3rd option next year.

well I guess it's brook Lopez or Clint Capela then

Lowkey wish Lakers could get Grimes or Kuminga.

I think any center at this point is a upgrade over Alex Len and Jaxson Hayes, it can't get any worse than that right?


Also is it possible Lebron opts out of his final year and leaves LA?

WHAT IS KUMINGA GONNA
DO FOR THE LAKERS?

HOW DOES HIS GAME
SUIT LUKA AND BRON?

Nobody, we ain't getting shyt and will be out in the first or second round. Pelinka already showed us he not moving Reaves, he's on the best contract in the NBA

 

[The God Poster]

The false hope usually don’t start until the 2nd week of the season. Team as constructed isn’t a contender & wont be until they get pieces that fit Luka game. This is assuming Nico wasn’t right.

Both our top guys have put up numbers, however they really don’t compliment each other. I’ll enjoy watching next season like I usually do. Wont catch me getting emotionally attached & on here “hoping” and having “faith”

I don't know but he is a pretty decent player that Kerr does not use, better than half of Lakers bench

IMAGINE BRON AND LUKA
SITTING IN THE CORNER
SO KUMINGA CAN ISO
FOR A TURN AROUND 10 FOOT SHOT

YOU CLEARLY DONT WATCH HIM

[Raquinotj]

Lakers will need to get a guy like Steve Adams and also sign Andre Drummond to come off the bench and give them some minutes with lots of rebounds and catch some lobs from Luka.

You probably right as I don't watch Warriors but based on what I seen he is better than Lakers bench. He can't be that bad

Did you miss Drummond the last time he was here? He almost got his ass sent to China
