    i think we're going to get a player for the min that people wouldnt expect and im expecting a move to clear up some cap space/or replaces some combo of ayton/vando/dalton with a useable player

    Kuminga on the way ?

  • Silas

    Kuminga on the way ?

    Wouldn't be mad at it, would likely be a 2 year deal, player option lol

  • Will Knecht ever be freed from the JJ torture chamber?

    Sure Grimes is fine when he’s the main scorer on the floor. He’s inconsistent as f*** when he’s not

    I don't have any faith in this Laker team but Grimes is gonna be good. He's finally paid and not being bounced around to multiple situations, he'll find a role playing off of AR and Luka

    But keep in mind this team as currently construction is trash. We got another Landlord Pelinka special

  • Oubre is gone

  • I wanted Ware so bad

  • my thoughts on the pick ups

    Walker Kessler - much needed defensive anchor. His salary not that high and hes worth 2 first. In theory, those are picks in the mid 20s.... Walker is exactly what the starting lineup needed with Luka. Someone who excels in defense. Hit the boards, can finish lobs.

    A Grade

    Sandro - a stretch big. Idk IF he's going start, or be a key bench player. I think for the sake of defense and speed, he will thrive as a bench big. I kinda think this is Rui replacement. I would have preferred to keep Rui. Sandro has game but a downgrade too Rui

    C

    Grimes - He is the Marcus Smart replacement. Luka and Reaves are below average on defense... We needed a guard to handle fast guards. Grimes is hitting his prime and Smart is leaving his prime. He went for one last payday. Grimes can shoots 3s.. hes a starter. Smart was solid but getting older.We get younger and faster

    A

    Sexton - Hes going be the 6th man.. Instant offense and someone who can play late in the 4th, We lost scoring and playmaking with Lebron. We signed a player in his prime instead of a player in their 40s.... lol.. We need more scoring and play making with Lebron gone...

  • the way I see the 2 deep

    C: Walker, Ayton
    F: Luka, Sandro
    F: Vandy, Jake
    G: Grimes, Carr
    G: Reaves, Sexton

    others: Knecht, Bronny, Adou....

    we still have 2 open roster spots.... I really think we can use a big wing defender... I feel like we took care of center, and the guard spot... I think we can hide Luka on defense as a 4 now, like Lebron.... I think Adou can take Vandy spot... I wish we could bring Rui back but he gone....
