Vet min say no more haha
What’s the most we can offer him?
I wonder if we just split our TPMLE between Bamba and Beasley?
Having so much continuity would be quite nice as both a fan and I think for team chemistry. Is there a player out there worth $12M that’s better than these two at $6M?
I’m hearing Brook Lopez but my guess is he gets paid closer to $18-22M
If we bring back dlo bamba and Beasley it would be an astronomic w
This means we only really lost Lonnie brown and Schroder
While adding Vincent, reddish, prince
Players that don’t play during the playoffs and contribute to playoff wins are replaceable. Find someone to eat up regular season minutes for half that price or less.
There’s barely any roster spots left and the only big on the roster is one of the most injury prone in the league. Let’s go get another guard!
For minimum salaries on this roster, Beasley and Bamba would be more than fine imo. Pelinka masterclass. Not having their salaries allowed the Lakers to make other moves. I can still see them being useful as minimum guys.
How much left of the MLE can we use?
1 year vet min deals for Bamba and Beasley as a “prove yourself before u get the bag elsewhere” contract might be the way.
Maybe they’re banking on as a 3rd/4th big for Castleton to be serviceable in the lineup depending on how he performs in the summer league?
why not
The Lakers are playing checkers, the rest in the West is playing chess. I wonder what LeBron thinks of these bargain basement additions. They really need a center, a real center, and all their getting is cast offs. LeBron at 39 ain’t going to play 40 minutes a game, and if AD reverts to his every other day good game, the Lakers are going to another play in team
He had some family problems. I think we were really hard on him. He was a good shooter in Minnesota. I would bring him back.
Dude said he just needs to warmup and never did.
