@F_rederic_k @reycollazo82 #4 is the most interesting point.
I never considered the sign&trade route as a means to acquire his bird rights to sign him for more next year if he's successful.

[Mr.musiq @MrMusiq619]

@RyanLucas_LA Seems fair. Though with a higher salary I'd be looking for at least 2 guaranteed years if I'm Pelinka. A 1+1 has minimal upside if they're so confident in him.

[Mr.musiq @MrMusiq619]

@Baldmojito Marcus Smarts vertical leap disagrees with you🤣🤣

[Mr.musiq @MrMusiq619]

@BobbyMarks42 Drummond....easily

[Mr.musiq @MrMusiq619]

@CanyonDriver Vando+ 3 2nds for Jalen Smith?

[Mr.musiq @MrMusiq619]

@TrevorLane We can always depend on the Wizards....

[Mr.musiq @MrMusiq619]

@VinoUncorked at this point they are BY FAR the 2 most athletic players on the roster. They have to get playing time.

[Mr.musiq @MrMusiq619]

@PlayoffDude Another name I really like *shockingly

Marvin Bargley...go look at some film he pops.

[Mr.musiq @MrMusiq619]

@CantBeatAudel Keep Ayton sign Mitch Rob and make a big offer to Peyton Watson

[Mr.musiq @MrMusiq619]

@AnthonyIrwinLA In a scenario in which Lebron leaves (it's time)
Letting Marcus Smart go just seems logical?
Prioritize Payton Watson in a big way.

[Mr.musiq @MrMusiq619]

@OtisKirk23 @LALMuse Not accurate. IF Ayton opts in he would solve 2 problems.

#1. A competent backup big
#2. His current salary allows them to stay below the 2nd apron.

[Mr.musiq @MrMusiq619]

@Kareem_is_it Sounds like 10mil is the limit he can get from them. 15mil MLE and he's out.

[Mr.musiq @MrMusiq619]

@Kareem_is_it Just literally posted a Smart/Carr/Thiero/ Jaxson Hayes bench changes games. Athleticism defense speed. Steals & fast breaks.

[Mr.musiq @MrMusiq619]

@LakersLegacyPod Drop Marcus Smart & Jaxson Hayes into that bench infinity stone and let the highlights fly!!

I like Jalen Smith as a potential trade option as well.

[Mr.musiq @MrMusiq619]

@LakersLegacyPod This lineup

Marcus Smart/Carr/Thiero/ Jalen Smith/Jaxson Hayes

Energy effort, defense, and athleticism absolutely shifts momentum.

[Mr.musiq @MrMusiq619]

@TheLakersReview The key to the off-season is turning Vando+Knecht+#25 into a legit rotation/ starter level player.

That would allow you to use your cap space to sign 1 impact FA or 2 solid starters.

[Mr.musiq @MrMusiq619]

@vinaykillawala Rui has improved every year. At this point he's a borderline elite shooter. I think he's lair very well with a high motor athletic shot blocker/rebounder.

He's a low to mid end starter.

I'd love trading for Claxton
Signing wiggins resigning Rui.

[Mr.musiq @MrMusiq619]

@DOC323123 It makes the most sense to acquire a starting center before free agency. It likely forces Deandre Ayton to opt out which frees up more cap space.

[Mr.musiq @MrMusiq619]

@Abe_OGBullsFan @JCowleyHoops I could see a 3 way trade

Lakers:
Cam Johnson
Okoro
Jalen Smith
11.6(TPE)

Bulls get:
Vanderbilt
Knecht
Pk#25

Nuggets get:
Jake Laravia
