LAL short term center solution is to sign Alex Len, they can use a big body to cover (atleast) Jokic along with Hayes & Vanderbilt.
Then in the offseason they could target the likes of Turner, Gafford, Drummond even Capela

LAL/MIA
LAL get Bam Adebayo & Kevin Love
Pg Lebron/Milton

Sf Christie/DFS
Pf Davis/Vanderbilt/Love
Ce Adebayo/Hayes
MIA get Dalton Knecht, Rui Hachimura, Gabe Vincent, Christian Koloko, JHS, 2 1st round picks, pick swap
- Dalton will have his full opportunity & grow with Ware
I know MIA can get a lot more for Bam but i want to get biased sometimes

With how the new tax apron frame work is set up I doubt the Lakers will want to have two max extension salaries in Davis and Adebayo on the books which at one point can be between $120M-$130M for those 2 players alone. Not happening.

The Lakers would be overpaying for those 2 players. Vucevic is worth 2 second round picks.

The Lakers should move on:
Ham needs to go- he knows nothing about coaching
I gave DLo a chance but he ultimately failed. No heart, no desire from that kid. He just play to play.
Hachimura & Reaves are so so role players. One needs to go, or both if they can get better fits.
There are 2 directions, one is to try and compete one more time with Bron and AD or make a complete shake up. Trade AD for assets if they want a rebuild. If they want to keep, go back to what makes them a winner in 2020. Defense, big line up.

If the Lakers beat the Pelicans in the play-in, they will be crushed by the Nuggets in 1st round. If they lose, will get smashed by Kings or Warriors in play-in round 2. ??♂️

Currently
Pg Vincent/Pippen Jr
Sg Reddish/Christie
Sf James/Prince
Pf Hachimura/Vanderbilt
Ce Davis/Swider
Vincent is an interseting pick up especially that price. But here we go again Lakers retooling with these 1yr deals ??♂️ And keeping the team small.
AR and Dlo might be returning but c'mon give AD some help down low ??♂️

Rob Pelinka will come up with someone. The Lakers can still bring back Mo Bamba at a lower price or Mason Plumlee . Limited amount of centers on the market to begin with.
18 Mar 2023 11:43:22
These Lakers wont even make the play-in. They are not good and not so "lucky" enough to qualify ??♂️
03 Aug 2021 20:58:50
I have faith. But it feels like 2004 again for the Lakers 😖
14 Jun 2016 12:13:01
It's an absolute no from LAL
14 Jun 2016 07:16:07
Why the hell would you trade Ingram and Nance Jr for the 4th pick and an awful Chandler's contract?
13 Jun 2016 08:18:13
this is good if we cannot sign any FA. wes need to find ways to reach salary floor somehow. huestis has potential too.
03 Jan 2016 19:04:33
We are tanking and playing horrendous defense , no need for rim protection anymore. Assets are what we need.
