want Mike Conley so bad

?

this not the nba thread goofball i’d never bait you like that in here!

Don’t be sad that it happened. Be happy it ended.

hire Terry Stotts as an assistant and put him in charge of the offense!

Can we even afford him?

And shoot off the dribble

He played 75 games b2b season before the trade thing happened and got shut down. Need a full offseason to heal and maybe incorporate some of Bron’s regimen too.

Number one offseason priority has to be getting a center so AD doesnt get banged up

Letting dwight leave was the dumbest s*** ever

No, number one priority is getting SHOOTERS

Prioritizing center is what let us dump Damian Jones for Andre Drummond and get literally no real upgrade in production

#1 priority for me is getting rid of Dennis Shröder and replacing him with Kyle Lowry or Chris Paul

Then adding a legitimate center who is athletic, can rim run & protect the paint

Then adding 3&D guys

still think we win G6 with a healthy Caruso in the 2nd half and at least some decent officiating 🤦🏽‍♂️

its going to be on my mind for awhile

some takeaways from exit interviews

kieff said this year we didnt have the same camaraderie that we had during our championship run, talked about the importance of sacrifice and how not everybody was on board, sounded like he was referring to dennis' insistence on starting and trezz not being understanding of why he was benched, kieff 100% will be back next year

trezz was visibly upset about his lack of playing time, seems like laker fans didnt treat him the best either, he def wont be back

dennis backtracking like a mf talking about its not about money and he def wants to be here, i doubt we'll offer him the same contract we offered him during the season

caruso's heart is def with LA, he wants to stay but he'll consider walking for a payday

tht said the lessons he's learned from being a laker he wouldnt get anywhere else, i think he'll stay

wes and ben were positive, understanding the importance of sacrifice, they wanna run it back

Kieff also put an emphasis on how this season was like two seasons in one, but not being able to spend off court time with his teammates too much and not having much practice time or training camp. I think that plays into the camaraderie aspect a bit, i don’t think he was 100% talking about some of his teammates not buying in but it was probably a part of it for sure

I think Keef Dudley Wes and Caruso come back, maybe Ben too. I hope THT stays too but someone might offer him a bag off potential alone

F*** I didn’t know THT was a free agent I thought we had him on a rookie contract this whole time pls do whatever it takes, Rob

Sign and trade, can’t see Dennis wanting to go to Utah though.

It’s so imperative that we get Dennis to agree to a sign and trade for someone. Lowkey f***ed if we can’t in regards to really upgrading this team

Dwight, Whiteside, Nerlens, McGee, or Jones in that order.

3&D wise, I think Tony Snell could be a really underrated signing. Solid defender and a really good shooter, I’d doubt he gets anything more than the bi-annual at the most. Batum, Ariza, Jeff Green, Rodney Hood, Otto Porter, and Avery if he gets waived are some players to look at.

Bro watching the nets makes me sad asf, everyone giving there all , ball and player movement , always 4 shooters on the court

Why is our offense so dogshit? Is it the coaching? Oh man

All useless for us man

You’re a casual I see

Thank god u dont make decisions man

• A casual

Damian Jones sucks , but Drummond was a bad fit. The dumb move was letting Dwight walk. One of the best defense players or all time just leave, he was willingly to sign for cheap and was about the team too.
