How many player-assembled superteams are we going to have to put up with before the owners finally realize that max contracts are bad for parity?? HOLY ****

The nba has become a joke with some of these players thinking about jumping ship. You know it will happen with zion in a couple of years .

Anyways 11.4 million in cap space how do we get this.


It’s already done. Are you kidding me? They will get some players to come off the bench. So who will be the point guard? Rondo?

That team would be amazing no doubt but look what happened to the warriors this year.

Kawhi and AD aren’t the most durable guys just saying.


Yes but LEBRONTO Leonard and AD.... I mean realistically has there ever been a bigger big 3? AD and Leonard would be good enough couple that with James that's just scary.

This season would be our window. If KD gets healthy, it would be a LAL vs BK for years. Damn! **** KD,Kyrie, AD and Lebron!

Any bets on the lakers starting 5 right now? Will
Lebron be the point guard or shooting guard? They just need a couple of shooters off the bench.

One of Davis or Leonard will get butt- hurt during the season. If you were to tell one of them going in that they would have to average 18-20ppg instead of 26 -27 which one do you think would accept it.

F*** the Lakers.

Why not this year. If Zion signed a 7 year contract with Real Madrid with an out clause the moment his rights transfered to Los Angeles how long do you think that game of chicken would last? A year tops. I'd bet on 3 months.

Anyone who now owns one of these franchises is all about making money or was born to it....they have bushels of c notes to throw around at anything that moves...

Gone are the days when an NBA game didn't cost a poor mans week's salary....But they don't care.....

Just sign another Diva and make some more money...

Sell the rich kids another pair of overpriced sneakers and an equally overpriced tee shirt or two....

Daddy will pay..

It's the American way..

Curry/KD/Draymond/Klay was pretty ridiculous. I'd say AD/Kawhi/LBJ is right up there though. 3 Top 5 guys on one team, assuming LBJ hasn't been slain by father time.

Any way to keep Laker/Kawhi stuff in the "around the NBA" thread? Getting sick of coming here and looking for Celtics updates only to find pages and pages on Lebron, the Lakers, and Kawhi.

Dude the nba season is a moot point. It would have been wide open had leonard actually not taken the easy way out.

Nobody in the west right now is good enough not when you have three superstars. Legit superstars. Tell me who will have 3 superstars in the west next season besides the lakers? Houston? Golden state won’t be without Thompson.

I’m not saying the lakers would be bad.. All I said was injuries could happen just look at what happened to Golden State.

Anything can happen I’m not just gonna stop watching the NBA because the Lakers got a super team.

Curry is already gone and Rondo won't take a vet min. Green certainly wont take a room exception

Don’t be so sure. To win a title he would.
