If the Lakers are able to get Kawhi this year (instead of next offseason), his cap hold will be based on his current smaller salary. That means with all the 1-year deals the Lakers are signing and the added ease of moving Deng with only 1 year left, they potentially have room for a 3rd max in 2019.

ya it makes sense

if im the lakers i hold firm on my stance

ingram, ball/josh hart, a first

lets see who budges first. kuzma should not be included.

Did not see this coming. End of an era. No more Finals appearances for Lebron. So when it's all said and done Lebron retires with 3 rings and a 3-6 Finals record. Hmmmmmm.

Says the GS fan--- the most ironic thing ever posted on this board.

Thats what this feels like to me. I think Magic and Pelinka are getting way too much credit for this. This has more to do with the city than the Lakers. The stories about his sons schools, the house he bought and entertainment ventures all pointed to Lebron and his family relocating to L.A permanently because they probably wanted a change of scenery(I mean they spend almost half their life in Ohio) and the Lakers just happened to have cap space and Lebron still has some years left. He’s rich and wants to live in L.A.(who doesn’t). Plus after Lebron brought a title to Cleveland you can tell he was content and happy with his legacy in basketball and he started talking more and more about his family and life after basketball. This was a lifestyle choice and Lebron’s career is winding down.

I think if ur Lakers fans ur excited but the fact that Lebron has never been hurt and going into his 16th season makes u wonder how much longer can he outrun father time. The league is happy bc Magic gets his star and the media and Silver dont have to worry about both the two biggest markets being irrelevant for another season.

I think even though he is in unbelievable shape, he knows he doesn't have much left. Him laying on the floor after playing another 45+ minutes in game 7 of the ECF said everything. Let the man live, he gave the game everything he had in him. Even though he might have been manipulative sometimes, he gave the game everything. And didn't do dumb **** like some of us do off the court

. He stayed clean, and worked his *** off. He deserves every penny from the Lakers. The impact he'll have in LA is massive. I think Magic meant something when he said this would be a long-term investment. He'll help develop the youngins. If they don't trade them away, I hope they won't.

Getting Kawhi this season gets the Lakers knocked out in the 2nd round and LBJ is 34.
Getting a 3rd superstar and LBJ being 35 get's you what?

The 97-98 Bulls.

Ι'm not his greatest fanboy(although i have him 3rd on my all time list) but this is way too premature(and insulting).
He will make them winners. Maybe not champs, but winners.
And i'm almost certain that leonard will go there too now.

Magic Johnson bringing swag back to the Lakers.

Somewhere Jim Buss and Mitch Kupcake are crying in their beer.

I came to eat some crow about saying people never go to the Lakers when everyone claims they want to go there.

I'm kind of right. Apparently only the generational talents want to sign there as FAs.

Screw you guys, I'm going home. lol.

What a pussy.

He should have flamed him again, just like when he left for Miami.

Maybe include #MAGA since Lebron hates Trump.

Yeah just completely ignore that LeBron now has to go through probably both the Rockets and Warriors to get to the finals.
And would have to beat either in the Finals after going through the Celtics and possibly Philly in the East. Not to mention with Lebron there now, with their young guns, be they become a very attractive FA destination

Too bad they’ve got no room as we speak.

It’s funny how you think a team can compete via free agency with a team that drafted three all stars and got lucky cap wise so they could sign a second MVP caliber level player.

The Lakers cannot do that. But like usual people will be telling everyone how amazing they’re gonna be.

Just like when they got Dwight and Nash.
