Lakers fans should be looking at the off season as optimistics. If they miss on getting Giannis they can pivot to players like:
- Herb & Yves
- J A
- Claxton OR MPJ
ALSO players on RFA/UFA
- Peyton W
- Kessler
- Dayron
- Tobias
- John C
- Zach C
- RW
- Thybulle
- Oubre
Etc..
@melodante12548@PlayoffDude Yeah that’s my issues aswell. But they desperately need to make a move so if that’s the best available at least it’s a huge improvement
Walker Kessler is already in LA, and when he was asked about Luka and Reaves, he said they’re both great players. When asked what his message was to Lakers fans, he simply said, “I’m here, man.”
Rob Pelinka better not fumble this, go get him ASAP.
@PlayoffDude Yes and no. I think he will be fine for the Lakers, but he’s a big dude, so could be something to monitor. Just means having the right people around the staff to help and keep him ready will become the next priority
@melodante12548@PlayoffDude You just contradicted yourself though. Kessler IS a pillar piece for the the team, so it would make sense to pay the bag. It ALWAYS makes sense to offer the bag in this scenario. Anyone saying it doesn’t is either thinking too analytically, or just doesn’t understand team-builds
