@DZEHAGG get to the Lakers my man! You are the missing piece!
@rob_pelinka @LaLaLander

[Eric Latchford @EbLatchford]

@rob_pelinka great additions so far! 💪🏻
This has gotta happen if you want to have the depth against the top teams in the West!!! 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻

[Eric Latchford @EbLatchford]

I can dream right?
Depth+Starters+Shooting... LA here we go!

@JeffRatcliffe hey brother
Trade question in my 8 team Dynasty league. I have Brian Thomas and absolutely love him but I got an offer: BTJ for Breece, Waddle and 3 picks (2nd Rd, 3rd Rd & 4th Rd), thoughts?
Thanks man!

[Eric Latchford @EbLatchford]

@LegionHoops Done deal!

[Eric Latchford @EbLatchford]

Please make it happen!
@rob_pelinka

Throw in picks/cash, etc!
@LakerTom thoughts?

[Eric Latchford @EbLatchford]

@rob_pelinka yes please!

[Eric Latchford @EbLatchford]

@trevorlane Can we do this please and still sign Klay? ***If LeBron takes less?!?

[Eric Latchford @EbLatchford]

@MagicJohnson What if the Lakers could add Donovan Mitchell and Lauri Markkanen? Would that be similar?

[Eric Latchford @EbLatchford]

@TheDunkCentral Please no! There are 100 different trade ideas I'd take over this one!

[Eric Latchford @EbLatchford]

@rajadpp @LakerTom I do know this about business.. when you or the team are not producing and teaching the overall expected outcomes then it's time to part ways!

$250M??? Can you do simple math? Guess not!

Definition of insanity! Please look it up! Cause I'm tired of the same crap every year!

[Eric Latchford @EbLatchford]

A lot of work but would be so exciting to watch! Refresh the Lakers roster!

[Eric Latchford @EbLatchford]

@MagicJohnson
I love LeBron, generational talent! but... We are not beating top teams in the West with paying him $50M. 😞
Now this here, would be exciting to watch, as a life long Lakers fan! 😍😍😍

@rob_pelinka

[Eric Latchford @EbLatchford]

J. Hood-Schifino ($4M not counted above)
M. Lewis ($1M not counted above)

Gives us a final roster of:
PG: Haliburton, Maxey
SG: Booker, Reaves
SF: Wiggins, DeRozan, Bridges
PF: Markkanen, O'Neale, Williams
C: Turner, Nurkic, Bamba, Bol

[Eric Latchford @EbLatchford]

(5 & 6 because we gotta beef up the rebounds and defense at the center position)
5. Mo Bamba
6. Bol Bol
7. Miles Bridges - would be a sweet SF pick up!

Left on Roster:
D. Lo & T. Prince - sign and trade if you don't let walk.
Reaves (12M included above $)
To be cont...

[Eric Latchford @EbLatchford]

Step 4: FA signings.
1. Tyrese Maxey signs with LA(he made 4.3M last season but is due for a nice raise!)
2. DeRozan finally comes home! (Pay cut to come home!)
3. Royce O'Neal (PHX)
4. Patrick Williams (CHI)

To be cont...

[Eric Latchford @EbLatchford]

Step 3: Trade LAL-UTH
LA sends Rui, Wood and picks to the Jazz for Markkanen!

***All this puts us at $133M... 8M under the salary cap! Should give us some $$$ for some nice FAs!

To be cont...
