Why the hell would Luka extend with LA?

We’re cooked I fear. Edrice to LA will begin to heat up in the next year or 2

I caught some chit from a few in here for saying this was obviously going to happen. Never for one second did i think we had a chance.

People forget Dragic had the Lakers very high on his list before he got traded here. We just had the better offer at the time. Lakers, NY, and Miami were the 3 teams.

The 2026 plan was an absolute masterpiece, to no surprise. At least there’s still Fox and Trae until there isn’t! Don’t worry though, we’re getting Ant in 5 years!

$55M a year for Luka is a steal, was that his max?

Yup

If he had the bird rights or whatever the clause is he easily gets 75m per. That chit trade was so rigged

Does that help or hinder herros extension number?

Rozier’s 26.6 needs to be flipped for DeRozan or some sort of contract a team wants to get off of that has some years on it that we have a vision of rehabbing that player.

Thats a Charlotte Hornets or Washington Wizards problem.. not a Miami Heat problem.

Considering he’s far better than Herro ever will be you would hope it brings it down but the reality is that it’ll likely have no effect

Luka signed a shorter extension because he wasn’t eligible for the super max due to the trade.

In 2028, he will be eligible for a 5 year, 400 mil super max with Lakers.

41 or 42 is better than 50 per for Herro but still extremely overpaid

That may be the right deal. Any 20 pt scorer starts at 40 mill now

Just curious What are some similar examples of Herro’s archetype getting paid that much? Teams seem to be trying their hardest to get rid of those type of players (high volume shots/no defense) around the league

Bam is such a modest guy!

Perhaps he’s thinking about that next contract
