Still not changing with kuz extension LaVine will be a laker

Once Lavine's contract is up in 2 seasons maybe but I don't see Lavine being a Laker anytime soon if at all.

Looks like tucker can be a good asset or the future for the Lakers

My take on the Harden situation: it shouldn't be one!!!! Let's look at the AD trade....The Lakers and the Pelicans made out good. BI was given an opportunity to grow...something that was impossible with Lebron, AD was the missing piece for the Lakers. Both teams paid a price and got what they paid for. In no way, shape or form will a team that trade for Harden get a missing piece that they desperately need without giving up a helluva lot more. Miami, BK, Philadelphia and Milwaukee can contend right now without Harden...and to make it so bad, whatever team gets him, actually wouldn't expand their chances much more if even. Just let it go. Build a rep on loyalty and just stay with the Rockets. Hopefully they'll give you that 50 piece offer again. Do yall need some pieces, sure, work with mgmt and try to figure it out as the season develop...I actually like the current roster better than last year's.

Do Lakers keep Kuzma this season and do S&T next offseason or trade him this season for a younger player to get another player who's on a cheap rookie deal for another few years

I would say sign him to an extension and then explore a trade next offseason if he has an average year. At his present salary nobody will have any player that would make sense for the Lakers to trade for which would get equal value in return. If his salary would be say $13M to $15M per season there might be more out on the trade market next offseason. If not the Lakers keep him. He's a nice player to have off the bench.

Thoughts on the Lakers starting five this year? Here's what I'd go with:
LBJ/KCP/Kuzma/AD/Gasol
Bench: Schroeder/Caruso/Matthews/Morris/Harrell
Keep Bron at point guard. No one is better at distributing the ball. I want Kuzma to start so that Schroeder/Harrell can dominate the bench while Kuz still gets his minutes and touches. Kuzma is in his contract year, so it's time to see what he's really worth.
Situational lineups
Small ball: Dennis/Matthews/KCP/LBJ/AD
Defensive stop: Caruso/KCP/LBJ/AD/Gasol
3's: LBJ/Matthews/KCP/Kuzma/AD
Scoring: LBJ/Dennis/Kuzma/AD/Gasol
Give me your favorite lineups and tell me who you think should start

Matthews will be starting. Kuzma is coming off the bench. More than likely he will be 3rd of 4th player off the bench. Lakers still need another back up center at the vet minimum.
