Getting rid of a bad contract and most likely getting younger and more athletic will look bad on the org?
That's fair...I'm just saying everyone leaping to conclusions about pre ordained Laker greatness is a bit .. premature, at this point.
AD + LBJ + Kuzma + ... literally nobody, is not the big dog. It's a little yapper dog that might grow into a big dog. Yes! When was the last...
Exactly my point. They didn't have much to begin with, and half of what they had is gone. As for building a team from the ground...maybe wait...
You mean, like where they can get more money?
True! Which means they *might* be in contention for the playoffs!
With Butler, I don't think that's the right perspective. The issue is whether he likes it in Philly and feels like he is duly appreciated. I...
This is realistic. All those still talking about Lakers getting another superstar are very math challenged. Lakers will fill out their roster...
Yes, because Kyrie has a long history of willingness to take less money and relegate his role on the team to others. Makes sense.

Agree. What makes the Clippers and GS, next year, better than Houston? I get Denver, but think they're about a toss up with Houston. OTH,...
MANY people did indeed put them into contention, citing LeBron having been in like 23 straight finals. And, you will note, that the discussion...
The Lakers immediately became one of the favorites when they got LeBron. How did that work out?
Better, yes, but how much better? Does AD joining a completely mediocre, non playoff contending team, who already has a good player who plays his...
Agree. Let's tamp down the woe is me, the West is lost nonsense. The Lakers traded half of their team, and most of their future, to get AD. At...
Except Irving isn't ON the Lakers.....
That the Warriors, minus KD and Klay, are the favourites shows how biased and unobjective the determination is. Warriors will play tough...but we...
