If you was the Lakers would you trade Danny Green, Kyle Kuzma for DeMar DeRozan?

Dennis Schroeder is a really good pickup, if he can stand up to the pressure of playing with Lebron then the Lakers have a good shot at repeating
 
I'd trade Green for an Almond Joy, and I don't like Almond Joy's.

And they can keep Demar.

All I know is shit was so sweet when the lineup of lebron, green and Pope defend the wing.

If they trading him to OKc for Dennis, seem like they looking for more ball handling

So you don’t think haven’t (if things worked out)

Lebron,Bradley,rondo,
Green,Caruso,Cook
Pope,Kuz
Davis,Boogie,
McGee,Howard

Is solid enough to make a run

Dwight Howard probably going to move on for a bigger payday. He was only signed for 1 year at the minimum. Dwight with Golden State won’t be a bad look.

‘Yep they already had a solid lineup and could make a run, just saying adding Schroeder gives them an even better chance. Dennis can shoot, drive, distribute and play defense, neither one of Green, Caruso, Pope, or Kuz can do all that so Dennis would be taking somebody’s place a
 
Hell no...he is a no show when it comes to the playoffs
keep Kuzma, he is young and he will show promise like he did this yr
 
Watch Danny Green next NBA team will win the NBA championship neting him three rings on three different teams...
 
Yep. I would try to keep Bradley and Dwight though. Kuzma has had enough chances to develop. Cash him out for 16-18 pts, 4 Reb, 4 assists per night guaranteed by DeRozan as a #3 or #4 option.

DeRozan don’t shoot 3’s though and atleast Kuzma can shoot them and make them at a pretty high percentage. So you basically will be subbing Kuzma 3’s for DeRozan mid range game.
 
Green is def outta here. 1 year left 15M. Same with Kuz. He's due for a payday after his rookie deal is up. No way he gets it from the Lakers. He'll never have a big enough role on this team right now to justify it. He averaged more ppg than Ingram while they were together on the Lakers so he def thinks he's as good or better and just needs the minutes to prove it.

I think Rondo and D12 will be back. Why go to the Clippers or GS for a chance to win a chip when you're already with the champions. I think Lebron will talk them both into staying.

KCP wants to get paid. The Lakers want to keep the books clean for next year to sign a max player next year so I don't know about KCP getting long term deal now. He's been taking 1 year deals for the last 3 years and now that he has a ring is ready for a big payday. He is a Klutch client and they did get him 17M in 2017 when he didn't deserve it so they may talk him into taking another 1 then next year getting a multi year deal.

Rob is a salary cap wizard building a chip winning team without going into the luxury tax this year. LOL, Orlando had a higher payroll this year.

Below is my dream team for the Lakers next year.

Lebron/Rondo/Bradley
D. Rose/Schroeder/Caruso
KCP/Lebron
Davis/Morris
Howard/Boogie/Thon Maker

Adding Rose and Schroeder now gives them 2 more ball handlers to take the load off Lebron as he gets older. My only hole is SF but with small ball positions always get smaller. The end of game lineup should be,

Rondo (every game)
D. Rose/KCP/Caruso
Lebron (every game)
Morris
Davis (every game)

Whoever his hot between Rose, KCP, Caruso & Morris will finish.

Rondo
D. Rose
KCP/Caruso/Morris
Lebron
Davis

Boogie Cousins need to retire.
 
Green getting bought out by OKC or traded to a third team where he will probably get bought out...

He's a perfect bench/role player now...

Wouldn't be surprised if he end up with Clippers or Warriors... probably wants to stay in Cali...

Maybe Dallas...

Or he can go back east to Philly, Boston or Milwaukee

Very true, I just feel like the chemistry on the defensive side was the biggest factor and wonder if that could change
 
Boogie Cousins need to retire.
Naw centers weak as hell in the league he got alil service left. He never was the most athletic dude so I feel he can get his game back. I think he can 15 and 10 it tho with enough minutes he always had a J. A couple garbage points and a few free throws that's all they'll need.
 
This is bad for the league. Schroeder should be starting and trying to compete for an all star spot. Not being a 6 man for a already loaded team.

The NBA is hellbent in n sinking ratings and taking the league back to tape delay. Having 8 good teams (2 LA, 2 NY, 2 TX, Boston, Philly) while the rest of the league is utter crap and farm teams isnt good for the health of the league.

Knowing Silver he rather have all the mid/small market teams fold and sell the franchise rights to cities like London and Beijing. He already sold the league moral stance out to the Chinese. It dont trust his fruity ass to grow the league like Stern.
The only thing he knows how to do is whore out the league.

The new retard mentality is thinking its best to be in the lottery rather than a low playoff seed. Harvard degrees yet to obtuse to realize this aint a video game. These so called smart white people with advanced degrees are showing that IVY league talent is trash unless the system is fixed for them to win.

Stupid ass white boys to dumb to realize that losing pretty much ruins prospects. They act like niggas got some emotional switch ready to turn on when the team is "ready' to win. They act like fans are supposed to ignore years of losing and come running like hungry dogs one the team is good.

Tanking simply means you are a farm team. The Lakers and Celtics franchises are fucking leaches with inflated ego. The Lakers had three top 2 picks. Developed zero starters with their draft capital. Then proceed to raid the league for talent and taking away any competitive balance.

I will say this and you and quote me on this. The Pistons and Bulls are the teams that put the NBA on the map. The Lakers and Celtics winning in the 60s, 70s, and 80s never built the league into shit. Pistons were drawing 40k fans and were setting attendance record the Celtics and Lakers could only wish for.

Physical play and a competitive leauge are what brought.the league to prominence. The league was floundering in 2003 when the 2004 Pistons brought back ratings. Only for the league to repeat the dumb shit they did with MJ and put the fate of the league on one man.

It not LeBron fault per se, but the rsting are down again and the NBA is stuck on stupid with Lakers vs Cetics narratives for the thousandth time. They want to blame Covid but the NFL ratings are only down 6% while the NBA is down more than 50%. Silver wants to taint the league furher with silly ass play in games for the playoff and dont mean shit tournament that they are making up out their assholes.

They need to axe fag boy and make Jerry West commish. Jordan the new logo. Get rid of the 4/5 year contact max. These nigga need to stop with the pick up bball and start guarding players at the half court line again. Stop switching teams every 2 year and get some chemistry.

Swallow the bitch ass whistle unless you are in the paint and make dudes make contested shots. Seeing dudes hit wide open jumpers is boring as fuck and FT make me want to sleep. Bring back fighting to sports and stop with the soccer mom suspensions.

Lastly, I need to NBA to understand who butters its bread. Gen X has money and the desire to watch sports yet the league is trying to cater to millenial who make less money and rather watch NBA twitch the a real game. If we dont watch or participate the NBA will basically have tp pander to foreign interest like China.

The NBA needs a gut check soon and needs toget back to its base. Otherwise it will become a second tier sport. The NBAPA better take notes because when those salaries start going down the money and the fans aint coming back.

The ball is in the NBAs court. I told them what the REAL fans want. If you want EURO flop ball please start an NBA Europe and flop til your heart is content. Please bring the real NBA and stop with the Soccer Mom League shit. Make the NBA great again.

TheGooch has Spoken.
